Latest Taycan Software Update Findings and Reviews Thread

[gnop1950]

I really haven't had any significant issues with my MY22 (grey icon) PCM software so it is with some trepidation that I scheduled the ANA6 update for 24 August. The service department assured me that unless something goes wrong the entire process should take less than 4. hours. Once it is done I'll report back on my experience.

I am in the same boat as you. Amazingly, I have a 2020 4S, go figure... ?‍

Two questions that I’m sure have been answered somewhere in this thread:

1) There used to be an icon for the smart lift system on the Home Screen but I no longer see this since the uPdate. How do I access this now?

2) Where exactly is the power to the drivetrain graph that used to be on the dashboard tunnel? I know it’s been moved to the center console screen but how is it accessed?

Not sure on the first one, but on the second tap on the Vehicle icon, then tap on the Trip tab

If you lift the car a message pops up automatically if you want to store it as a smartlift position.

Yeah I know that but was that what he was asking?

I thought this might be new. I never had the old version so can’t compare.

The smartlift function menu can be accessed in the menu. But probably that was available too in the past.

It automatically asks me to save the location when I tap the lift button on the left screen since day 1 on my MY22. I only use the suspension height menu if I wanted to change it to a different height level other than lift.

Same for all MYs with air suspension.

Yes but my MY '21 had an icon on the older PCM whereby it would list all the GPS locations stored in my Smart Lift settings

Settings - Vehicle - Smartlift and manage from there.

I have a MY21 but not had the PCM upgrade yet.

Is see there are new manuals posted in the Porsche Good To Know app which I can't download just now. Also meant to be available in My Porsche App too but doesn't appear to work on Android or iPad OS just now.

Is there any thread to get Android Auto to show up? I got the new update on my 2020 Turbo and when I connect my phone, my phone says "Android Auto, finish setup on device screen" but I can't seem to find anywhere on the PCM to do this? Anyone have the same?

Just got the update completed on my 2020, all in all very smooth but for those who use the Sirius radio, the favorites is gone from it’s usual location (usually to the right of the Bose menu) and moved to a non sensical locating that requires es more button pressing to get too…no idea why they did this. Favorites is now a SOURCE option instead of being a top option......."

SOURCE option?.....excuse my ignorance but where is that?

After my MY21 was updated, so many things are better. I've stopped getting notifications about my SiriusXM subscription being updated.

The range showed much lower after charging, though.

Prior to the update, 85% was ~222 miles.
1st charge after the update, 85% was 158 miles.
2nd charge after the update, 85% was 181 miles.

All of the kWh/100mi numbers (this trip, since charge, forever) are all between 28 and 33, so the math doesn't quite work.

I'm hoping it will converge again after a few more charges.

Source is where you select where you music is coming from. AM/FM/Siruis/Apple car play and so on.

Just long press any of those sources and you can rearrange them however you want. Same thing works inside the favorites list.
