    EU/UK: Ongoing navigation issues [Solved with PCM v3892]

    Indeed, I had the same demand from my Porsche dealer in France. I've told them no way since driving and using the phone at the same time is somewhat dangerous, don't you think? I also told them to use the extensive and details report case they have when I brought the car in 8 month ago for this...

    EU/UK: Ongoing navigation issues [Solved with PCM v3892]

    FYI, just left for the second time my Taycan ST for this issue + others like heater to be replaced, park assist not working, etc. Last time, they updated my PCM to version 3885, they said they might change the entire PCM this time. They also said – and this is the interesting bit – that they...

    Just fell of my chair - price to clip the reverse camera back in £750...

    Yes you can. I've had the same problem and managed to do it. Although be prepared to fiddle around for quite some time, it's really not simple to align everything correctly. Your hands will also hurt. I recommend another thread talking about this which might have more details...

    What's the best alternative to the Taycan?

    On my part, I was hesitating between the A6 Avant E-Tron and the Taycan before I bought mine. The A6 is serious alternative with much better range. Otherwise, I would go for a Xiaomi SU7, Xpeng P7 or Ioniq 6N

    To be fair, you won't have have an issue with battery preconditionning in the summer, so you can do the nav with Google maps/Waze/ABRP/whatever you prefer though Android Auto/CarPlay If only I could manually launch the battery preconditionning, I would stop worrying and use that useless software

    I feel you. You're supposed to hop into the car, set the destination and drive. I have the same reaction now, and double or triple plan/check the itinerary before the road trip "just in case". I had 3 EVs in the 10 years, this was a non-issue, period. I had to buy a 100k+ car to start having...

    EU/UK: Ongoing navigation issues [Solved with PCM v3892]

    Hello 👋 Soooo after almost two months bug-free, the nav started to fail again. That happened during my road trip which I completed today. The correlation is obvious and sad: when you need to trip planner the most, this is when it fails 😑 Sent an email tonight to my OPC, let's see what they...

    Screen Protector for Taycan

    I'm using the brotect mat screen protector. It's still plastic and decreases the contrast a bit, but I can see the screens absolutely fine in all conditions

    Yes are indeed lucky to have a very dense and ultra fast charging network on French motorways. Most of the stops do have 300+ kW chargers. When PIRM works correctly, I always get 250+ kW (I always stop below 10%) and it's so amazing then that happens

    You're right, although it might cost you more time when temperatures are around 0C. My car sleeps outside. I did a 700 km trip in December with temperature around -3C. PIRM was completely useless on that trip and did nothing. When I arrived at my first charge stop, the battery was at 17C and I...

    There is a big distinction here: 1. If the car allows manual battery preconditionning, the. It's a nice to have 2. Otherwise, it's a requirement since only the charge planner can perform such operations. This is especially true for during colder periods, and cars with high recharge speed We all...

    I had that. The information was back after locking the car, leave it be for some time and going back in it.

    EU/UK: Ongoing navigation issues [Solved with PCM v3892]

    Something that I don't understand. Porsche gives you all the flexibility you want about the driving experience, but somehow treats the planning and charging differently. Why is there no manual preconditionning? Sure, keep PIRM do it if you're planning a route through that, but give the customer...

    Rear camera liquid cleaner not hitting the camera on cleaning but license plate

    Found this thread https://www.taycanforum.com/forum/threads/rear-camera-washer-problem.11647/#post-240629 so I decided to try again... and I managed to do it! It's extremely fiddly, the outer casing needed to be inserted in the exact right angle, otherwise nothing lines up. And after that, the...

    Rear camera liquid cleaner not hitting the camera on cleaning but license plate

    I spent an hour trying to fix this myself and miserably failed. The main issue is that there are two plastic pieces that house the washer and the camera. These pieces clips together from the font and back of the bumper to lock and secure all items. But it's impossible to reassemble that without...
