Anyone ever see this? Happened on my car today. I pulled over and turned the car off and back on and haven't seen it since. I think the GPS was trying to activate the lift when I pushed the button at the same time, so maybe just a software glitch?

Not anything I've seen but our "modern marvels" (that includes all new vehicles which are little more than digital gadgets on wheels) are subject to these kinds of anomalies.

Reboot and continue as though nothing happened. (That is until it occurs a 2nd or 3rd time. ;) )

Yup, I can attest to that. I had a range rover Velar a few years ago... Once in a while it would boot up the screen for a Range Rover Sport lol.

Looking at a couple forums and on Reddit, it seems a lot of people with that car got the same error message from time to time. Most could just re-boot the car, and it would be gone to never be seen again.

But yea, as @blueline said, might be worth checking further if it keeps coming back.

I gotta say tho.... That red center gauge is so NICE

Yes... I had the same error message on my 2022 911. I dismissed it and thought "that was wierd". A couple days later I noticed a pool of fluid in my garage under the front end of the car. Porsche Service showed me a leaky fitting in the Lift System. The fitting was repaired under warranty. All is back to great again.

Did the lift still work when it was leaking? Mine seems to work fine....

Sorry about that. Mine's still working fine, and my dealer tech says they can throw that error when they get confused. :silent:
