We had a MAF issue and you could put your foot on the accelerator as hard as you liked but there were no revs and the car did not move - it did not stall. Problem solved by a battery reset with the isolator turned off for about 1/2 hour, turned it on, turned ignition key to MAR, push throttle fully to floor and release 10 times (as adviced by a Porche engine development technitian), turn key off, then start engine and drive like crazy (our translation from @Zep's advice) - but we may be on borrowed time. We also had a stalling issue and the gear box light came on - in that instance it was the F1 pumpMAF at a wild guess...
After some trial and elimination this ended up being the crank shaft censor. After not being driven properly for 2 years she is now running great ready for next summer. I never wish time away but bring on next year already. Also looking for the Center console button strip as when I was cleaning the sticky buttons with some alcohol I wiped across this button unit and rubbed the print clean ofGood morning people
My car keeps stalling after running for about 10 minutes and won’t start for another hour or so
Hope someone on here can help thanks in advance

Perhaps we should start a thread - 'the strange things my car does and how we rectify them'My 2006 QP often stops running after about one minute after start. I have to remove key, open driver’s door, unweight the drivers seat, and then it will restart immediately. If I don’t follow that procedure, engine will crank but will not fire. My mechanic calls it an “Italian tune-up”. I call it “control/alt/delete” reset. Cause of problem is unknown.
