Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

7 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

My battery is good, but on start up it feels like battery is failing? Is it the coil packs? Had car from new (2007) still love it full service history but now use independent, s for service 911 Sport at Horncastle . Service due soon anyway.

POST 2Original post

Could be the starter motor or possibly a poor main chassis earth. How old is the battery?

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Battery is about 4 years old, car is used daily.

POST 4Original post

Batteries have been known to fail in that time and if its a Porsche one (MOL) then even less. If not already done so, I would have it checked to eliminate it from the possibilities.

POST 5Original post

Sorry, I didn't get to reply until this afternoon. I would ask Steve at 911Sport to check the battery. Mine died a few weeks ago from being able to hold charge for weeks to being difficult to start the next day even after using a battery conditioner for 17 hours the previous day. Steve upgraded mine from the default 65AH battery (096?) to the larger model (110 IIRC).

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks for advise I'll have it checked out.

POST 7Original post

My first port of call would be battery try a Bosch from euro car parts
