Thanks all for the replies. I'll be heading back to the dealer.

Does anyone have a link to the TSB related to the cable issue? I wonder whether my 997 has the original cable. I think they replaced it with an improved version for the 997.2

My daily driver is a 2006 997.1 2S and i have also been having battery issues. Initially (6 months back) i had replaced the battery with a EverStart MAXX 94R and thought the problem had gone away, but it started to get worse again. Warm starts very weak. Ended up buying a battery tender which is a pain as i live in a place without an electrical socket close to my car. So i took it into the dealer and they said the alternator was good & the battery was shot and i needed a new battery. I was surprised but hey, they are the pros right? So replaced battery with recommended Porsche battery and problem comes back soon after. Dealer said that i don't drive the car enough ( i'm doing about 10 miles a day, mostly in traffic, max 20-30 mph ) but i find that hard to believe as i have driven many other cars over the years, most no where near as expensive as a 911 and none had similar battery issues. The dealer did not mention anything about the TSB about the cables mentioned here. I'm assuming they checked the voltages as they charged enough for diag. labor costs. Any advise appreciated.
