Long story short, some time ago (months) my car develop problem with warm/hot engine start, sometimes was ok sometimes NOT it was look like weak battery. I took my Porsche on holiday fantastic ride... but the problem began to appear more often and just before my planed trip back to UK it turned out that it was the engine's fault to be more precise-engine on my car decide to seized.
At fault crankshaft bearings.
I have been told 100K miles and everything above is just luck.
NOT A FUN :sad:
Luckily for my wallet I manage to find a Porsche/BMW M-Power magician who repairs and improves these engines. Overall cost of rebuild with night out in Krakow £4000, NEW-nikasil cylinder liners, pistons+audi rings (apparently better material), crankshaft bearings I haven't been told exactly but also better material has been used.
