‘Transmission emergency run’ 997.2

[flying scotsman]

This message came up on my daily commute this morning. 50mph in 7th on a 2011 997 GTS pdk.
It dissapeared about 90 seconds later and has not returned.
Any thoughts?

50 mile drive back home with no reoccurance. 🤞

Get the codes read if your worried. Any specialist can do it for you.
Was there any change in the shifting behaviour if the box?

Would have been far better if the warning had read: "Transmission emergency. Run!"

Not helpful I know. I can only apologise and wish you good luck...

That would have at least brought a smile! Thankfully, no gear changes or unusual revs. I was in manual mode at the time in 7th at 50mph on the ave spd check M23. I put it back into auto with no change to gear or unusual sounds....

Fingers crossed

A simple Google search gets you this informative thread

Summary: could be a new temperature sensor required.

Thanks, I had seen that as well. There are a couple of other threads that suggested new gearbox, but they were from earlier years so hopefully the simple fix has been found. As I run the car without a warranty due to bypass pipes and non standard battery I wanted some clarity that an expensive repair wasn’t a definite.
