  1. -4 and the heater kaput… wish me luck

    I am due to drive 1000kms back to the UK… endurance test ahead… and it looks like broken heater causes max charge limit of 30kw… oh well, thank you, Porsche, for a wonderful car…
  2. Public charging in france

    hey neighbour from Wokingham. you must be an ace of a driver - I took a look at those double decker angled corridors, and it gives me a heart attack just thinking about driving through those. I must admit I barely manage the wide single-deck ones though...
  3. Electrical System Error - 11 failed battery modules in 2021 Taycan under 10K miles

    It could be that RWDs are just under-represented, i.e. fewer of them to break and report
  4. 12v battery low please connect to charger

    well at least it said "please"...
  5. [POLL] Did environmental considerations influence your decision to purchase a Taycan?

    I was tempted to say it was because of the environment, but it is not true. A car that consumes twice the energy than more economical cars (2.5 miles vs 4 miles per kwh) can't be environmentally friendly, no matter how virtuous I desire to be...
  6. Active Lane Keep, Hands Free or Glorified Lane Keep Assist?

    Maybe I am missing something, but I had a tesla for a week, and the Porsche's ALK is not vastly different... it keeps it nice and steady in between the lines both on motorways and country roads, breaks / slows down for the cars in the front - I am really confused why other peoples' cars act...
  7. Active Lane Keep, Hands Free or Glorified Lane Keep Assist?

    I think you are describing the behaviour if you ignore “take over steering” message long enough. I have reached that seatbelt jerking stage because I was curious how it would react. at the same time the car was quietly heading to the ditch more than once when the ALK thing decided it didn’t see...
  8. Active Lane Keep, Hands Free or Glorified Lane Keep Assist?

    It doesn't really want you to take over steering. It is just a dumb test that you are holding the steering wheel (probably because of some silly regulation). The way I do it is just holding the wheel with my hand on the knee - and it just feels a little resistance when it is doing literal (or...
  9. Driving in Europe

    I made two trips to the Alps from the UK this year (1000 km one way). Charging at Ionity (entirely possible with a little planning as Ionity is at many service stations along the motorway) was 30c/kwh, which I think is reasonable. To make things better more than 50% charges were not billed (at...
  10. Taycan Dead After Vacation

    I left my 2020 turbo unplugged at 80% SOC for a couple of months, and nothing terrible happened... (which I guess should be expected really).
  11. PSCB question

    Mines are rather shiny at 40 000 miles, so definitely some spirited driving is in order! :-)
  12. Porsche Connect Ending

    It won’t… it stopped working for me when connect subscription ended
  13. Road Damage = $50K Battery Repair

    I know it is an old thread, but why would Taycan lose steering if some underbody things were 'scratched'/damaged?... It's not like the whole steering rack was ripped off the car
  14. Loose leather at base of seat

    it is only a speculation, but I did have a Turbo loaner, and it was as good as my Turbo. Whilst those other base taycans had those leather bubbles... maybe just a coincidence
  15. Loose leather at base of seat

    When I looked at a few almost new taycans (10-2500 miles) this was one thing I noticed on many of them, and it was unsettling. At the same time, my 3 year old Turbo is absolutely fine. These other cars were inferior models, so my theory was that the approach to quality is different dependent on...
  16. bp Pulse on Porsche charging

    Strange indeed…. Must be some overinflated Porsche days in there!
  17. bp Pulse on Porsche charging

    they did, but it is only for those who are renewing or wish to be "upgraded"
  18. CPO+1 not reflected accurately on My.Porsche site?

    That’s for a new car. My was “Porsche approved” aka American CPO with 2 years by default
  19. CPO+1 not reflected accurately on My.Porsche site?

    Yes, I have the same thing - I was added one year extra warranty as a goodwill after some problems with my car - and whilst I do have paperwork for the extra, the website shows 'used car warranty as per the original 2 years' - was wondering if I need to raise it with someone or is it just a...
