I have symbol on my screen just left of the time (see pics). I don't recall it being there last week. When I am moving, the symbol is the rear of a car with a diagonal line through it with a triangle on the bottom right with an exclamation mark in it. When I stop (at a junction) that symbol changes to a green circle with a capital letter A in it.

What is this symbol?

Well the green symbol is showing the start-stop if working (and your rev counter is at zero) as for the other symbol no idea

From the USA forum for that symbol in first picture :-


"PAS is off:
"When all Porsche Active Safe functions are switched off, the grey symbol appears in the status area of the multifunction display"

It means, like me, you don't like the car screaming when you pull out round a bus at a stop and are REALLY NOT crashing into it!

Thanks - I've now found it in the manual. I can only presume that the settings were altered when it was taken for a 'test drive' after the service!!!
