Tigerstew Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 Hi guys I drove my 981s 2012 boxster on Wednesday for around 100 miles and today (Saturday morning), the car stuttered to start for about 2-3 seconds so very noticeable compared to previous starts….. is this anything to worry about? I tend to drive it maybe once a week or sometimes once a fortnight….. would a trickle charger help it from stuttering or is it just a consequence of not driving it much? its 7 degrees today and it was parked in a garage. any help guys? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul P Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 Sounds like a one off. I wouldn’t worry about it unless it becomes a regular thing personally. If it does it more regularly then start thinking about plugs or other causes. a battery conditioner isn’t a bad idea if you have the facilities to do it. Won’t hurt anything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Menoporsche Posted January 28 Report Share Posted January 28 Conditioner a good idea if you only drive it every 1-2 weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Menoporsche Posted January 28 Report Share Posted January 28 Stops the battery getting hairy. Battery conditioner or maintainer, CTEK is the brand usually recommended here. Less needed on a daily driver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
