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.

Reported cause · Original poster

The second problem was a nearly flat battery after 6 days not being used despite having a solar trickle charger plugged in - plenty of sunlight.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Just returned from an 1800 mile, 4 weeks in Spain. Ferry to Bilbao, drove to Denia for a week then down to La Cala/Fuengirola for 3 weeks and back via Madrid and Santander. As before the Spanish seem to be building new roads everywhere - mostly motorway and/or Toll. Car satnav with 2010 maps just about OK but even my Garmin with the latest 2012 maps was stumped on a couple of occasions. Outside the major towns the roads are just empty and a joy to drive. Saw only one other Porsche in 4 weeks and that a Cayman near Santander - where are they all? Petrol (98 Octane) between £1.29 to £1.36/litre - VAT at 21% does not help. Achieved 29.7 mpg overall. Only 2 problems - the ABS/PSM lights came on after some slow speed driving up/down a very hilly urbanisation which cleared after an hour while we had a coffee in a local bar and the car cooled down. The second problem was a nearly flat battery after 6 days not being used despite having a solar trickle charger plugged in - plenty of sunlight. Probably battery on its way out as it is at least 3-4 years old. Ferry back to Plymouth was a very rough crossing and I had some concerns we would find heaps of scrap metal on the car deck next day, but all appeared ok although I think our car had slid back about 2 feet from where we had parked it - fortunately we were last in a parking line with oodles of space behind us. Could not see any evidence of Brittany chaining the vehicles down - perhaps they don't.
