From a US website: Earlier this month, Porsche recalled a small number of 2014 models to fix front passenger airbags that may be deactivated when needed in a crash. A faulty wiring harness could disable the passenger's side and knee airbags. The 2014 Cayman, Cayman S, Boxster and Boxster S are affected, as well as specific 911 Carrera variants including the S, 4 and 4S coupes and the 4S Cabriolet.

981s C/B, 2013/2014 models. Something about a rear end module?

[Pope]

The US recalls don't apply to UK cars.

The Rear Electronics campaign WD16 concerns the fact that if the alarm system is activated the siren only sounds on the first activation; subsequent activations only flash the indicators. The campaign reprogrammes the RBCM with later software that addresses the issue. 8 minutes total programming + getting car in and set up; no drama.

Thank you very much Pope. Very informative.
Do you know anything about the PSM failure and auto stop start failure that intermittently appears? Is it the brake switch?
Thanks.
