A bigger problem is accurate diagnosis.
First tell us the codes/deviation/Actual values/Activations and your complete test procedure. Without all this info we are just keyboard-speculating.
This job is often misdiagnosed - as the many Threads on these Codes/Parts indicate.

Having read all the posts and replies I feel that this is job that far beyond my capabilities.
What I have found out from my investigation is that the cable going into the solenoid starts burning and smoking as soon the the ignition is turned and without the engine running. This then blows the DME fuse ( row C no 1) As the solenoid only operates from 1500 rpm, I am sure it is just a bad connection.
With the cable disconnected, she starts and runs sweetly at low revs. I do not want to rev hard through fear of an imbalance between the 2 banks.
Long story short, she is booked in at the local porsche main dealer for the end of may.
