I had driven the car without incident to a store. When I tried to start the car later it would not start. It was determined by both an independent mechanic and a Porsche dealer that the car had sustained catastrophic engine failure of an unknown origin. (they were not be able to determine exactly what the problem without disassembling the engine. I did not ask them to do this.). I replaced the engine.
