Latest Taycan Software Update Findings and Reviews Thread

[B61]

Coming from a 21. Noticed as I was parallel parking that the camera moved as I turned the wheel. Kinda neat

That was even before uPgrade.

I'm scheduled to pick mine up Friday.

I'm getting mine back it in about two hours
It was in private mode several times (tuesday, wednesday and today), but I can see that's parked now after successful test drive.

OK... in short (after 10km):
- as others already found out: no more info about 4WD (I mean, front/rear motors). Someone posted that's been moved somewhere else, but I haven't found.
- didn't loose any settings (addresses) or history (navigation), I just have to pair bluetooth/wifi on my phone again
- coloured icons. I don't know... so be it
- five icons... ok... don't care (maybe it will be harder to press since they are smaller?)
- back/rear camera!!!! For my eyes, something completely better!
(I had brand new Macan for those three days... I guess, they are same or very similar cameras.)
- comfort access: worked.

Range predicition: 245km at 60% SoC (=408km @100%), which means no difference.
Will see in coming days.

There is an image that shows power or recoup for the front and rear motors. It is under vehicle/trip. That’s the only one I have found.

Macan doesn't have camera's which turn with the steering wheel.
Glad to hear the view has improved!

Anyone?

Hmm, I guess I have to test it myself when my car is updated 26th September...

Still, feel free to test this if you see this message!
Highly appreciated! ?
C'mon guys, it's easy:
Test protocol
-Range mode: what's your max speed?
-Range mode + destination in nav: what's your max speed?

You can do this!

You can do this!

Max speed in range mode is 85MPH. Same with a destination set in nav.

That's correct. I wanted to say, that the views are similar.

BTW: driving Macan, it just reminded me, why I don't like RWD: vibrations of the rear wheels when cornering.. that's really annoying. I guess, not good for tyres as well.
The last 200 meters before my home I have three sharp turns where I always turn in Range mode.
Now, I'm wondering how it's gonna be after uPdate, with RWD

I'll try to find it later when I'll go home.
Thx.

140 km/h.

Is anyone having this issue after the uPdate?

No matter which route I ask Navigation to plot, a charging plan cannot be calculated. Instead I am left with "Calculating Charging Plan..." and a spinning loading wheel for the entire duration of the journey.

This also means I get no predicted percentage charge at destination, making long journeys very painful to plan.

I've gotten this on occasion with the last version of the PCM. Needed to reboot the PCM and it "fixed" the charging planner. I noticed that when this was happening, if you go to the nav, search, click the button for chargers, no chargers would appear. The reboot of the PCM seemed to do the trick.

I don’t think the camera lens is turning. Rather PIP moving along with steering wheel. I had this before the update. My21

Did you just reboot the PCM by restarting the car or is there a way while the car is operating?

Thanks!
I see I wasn't clear.
Sorry.
This is what I mean (pre-update).
With destination set it shows 150kph on the dash but still 140kph (85mph) on the menu.
Without destination it's both 140kph...

Is that a combined reading or are the front and rear still separate, ie can one still tell how the controller is apportioning power between front and rear?
