First problem found today. The trunk latch on the lid did not fully unlatch and when I tried to close it, the trunk bumped back up. Flicked the latch manually and managed to close the trunk. Now happened twice so may need to book into the dealer.

Not seen that... it fails to close regularly if something is in the way of the boot though. Mine goes in tomorrow to look at the wiper issue and change the rear view camera

@jetbox What is the wiper issue you are experiencing?

Sometimes my trunk stops halfway when I press the close and lock button. My guess is the car is having an issue reading my key in my pocket.

That happened to me today, went to the shops and hit the close and lock button. Boot was open when I returned. Obviously the comfort access close and lock failed and left my car open to all. Need to be more distrusting of that in the future.

And there's nothing blocking the trunk?
I don't think the "close and lock" button on the trunklid cares if the key is nearby... unless it thinks the key is IN the trunk. Then it won't close.
Otherwise, this sounds like a repair visit to Service.

Nothing blocking in my trunk. Just my laptop bag lying flat in there.

OK, then (and I'm totally guessing here) maybe the force sensor is not calibrated correctly. I'm not a Porsche Service Technician, but I'm on a first name basis with the one at my local dealership. :cool:
