Thanks everyone for their comments.

Heres the battery case. I was driving the car the day before pretty much all day, as well as the previous days before with no problems at all. I left it at my garage, woke up and it was dead. I called 1-800-PORSCHE they came and jump started it (Everyone was gone to work as it was morning), I drove for another 30 minutes and then I left the car parked for 45-50 min. When I came back I tried to turn it on and the battery was dead again.

I did not have the time to go to Walmart and get a new one and then replace it so I called 1-800-PORSCHE again and its now sitting at the dealer. I told them to completely replace the battery and also enable my OBD

(so I can get outside temperature).

I cannot wait to drive it again.
