Drivetrain notification
Yesterday when I was heading to the track, drivetrain notification appears on the screen, and the full performance not available.
I turned the car off and turn it on again and it's gone. So I took it to the dealer today and hope it's a small issue. Also to be honest I was driving the car hard and it was in sport+ mode. If anyone faces the same problem or know anything about it please let me know. Thanks |

Since you post here, I assume you have mods.
Extreme heavy load with freer flow exhaust system on stock tune causes this problem if you search you will find more threads on it. It appears more MY2016 cars suffer from it.

I'm not sure about it, because here in Qatar we don't trust our dealer : |

And they said it's from the downpipe and I think it doesn't make sense But at the end they said that they reprogram it under warranty and everything is fine now, also I would like to ask is your car stock or modified? Thanks. |

Guys, read this topic and you know a lot more... I had this reprogramming done by my dealer. I still need to test if the problem is gone.

Was the car low in fuel ?
- This happens on the track when the car is approaching 1/4 tank |

Although for the first time, as I couldn't fill it with proper fuel I inserted a can of NOS booster (street formula). So not sure if different fuel caused this. But anyway as @MR. suggested, I will get it to dealer and ask for PUMA update. |

Octane booster shouldn't cause this, and I did another run with the same fuel just with 1/2 of left in the tank, and the error didn't pop up. |

Not with other exhaust systems, but people have experienced it with other downpipes than the stock one.
It has to do with the more free flowing character of the downpipe and the on board systems giving overboost error messages. MR |
