Had to take it back to the dealer where they reapplied the WMA6 upgrade and a special patch for the drive control issue. Then they lobotomized the PCM which required me to login and set up presets again. But it’s back!
Very subjective, but here in the US, I got the Premium and Performance packages along with the big battery. I added folding mirrors, heated seats, and the rear middle seat. Finally went with the Race-Tex steering wheel, head-up display, and Innodrive. Of all these, I think Innodrive is...
Hey folks,
Really settling into my unintended role testing Taycan software :) . Have any of you had your heads-up display shut off even though it is shown as "on" in the settings? Its been a week since I've seen the display and no amount of rebooting the PCM is helping.

I just had this exact thing happen to me this week. I pulled over and restarted the car and it has been fine since. I have an appointment with the dealer in a week. Sounds like it’s going to be fun.
I have never gotten it to work in MA. In fact, I haven't even gotten the Porsche app to work. I ended up just paying for the charge through the EA app. I'm driving to Cape Cod on Monday morning and will be stopping midway an an EA. I'm wondering if this thread should be giving me hope.
Picked mine up after upgrades on Saturday morning. It was in private mode, but aside from that, nothing meaningful to report. It seems to start up more quickly and it remembers if I was using CarPlay or not the last time I drove it, instead of always going to CarPlay.
Comment from dealer is...
The trick was to tap the SXM button in the media console while it wasn't grayed out for a few seconds after the restart. If you missed that window, it would go gray and not work.
Mine mysteriously started working two weeks ago after I rebooted the console. It took two reboots to get it to stick, but it works. My dealer had no idea if anything had been done, but I do know that they had just done some updates to the app and the service back end.
Often feels like they...
Yes in fact. Busy week. Forgot to post.
It appears to be an issue with the OTA update that was pushed before Christmas on the 2021 models. I was told that it is affecting all the 2021's and they are planning a fix. Apparently, the vehicle needs to pull down it's updated Connect service list...
I just ordered data the plan from Verizon on my car and it does work well. It's $20 per month and it fixes a lot of things for me. Also, if you are using wireless CarPlay (on MY 2021 cars), I don't think you have the option to delete the hotspot from your phone. I could be mistaken but that is...
I scanned the EA ApplePay pass. They had no clue about the free plan. However, I have a credit card on file and they charged it. It was $.32 per minute and I was close to 70% SOC after 15 minutes.
I'll try the other apps next time and see what happens.
Latest update: I just spent 30 minutes with a Sirius XM tech and we still couldn't get it to work. I have a call with the "Advanced Technical Support Team" tomorrow.
Now you've touched a nerve. :-) I have a 2021 and I can assure you that this "plug and charge" thing appears to be complete fiction. I ended up just paying the 5 bucks to get 28kw so I could safely reach home. The one great thing about the EA chargers is that they are fast when they work.

No. As a daily driver, it would be hard not to give a hard look at a Panamera, or even a BMW 8 series. This was a technology lust purchase, and it really is a better EV than anything else out there.
I locked my order in August for a 2021 model and I just picked it up. It came with a PMCC in the trunk which I struggled with this weekend. It appears to be the equivalent of a full level 2 charger including the wifi, LCD screen, and an embedded web server. It took a lot of time to set it up and...
Hey everyone,
I just picked up my 2021 Taycan 4S on Christmas Eve, and I’m totally unable to access the satellite radio. I have signed up based on the email I got from Porsche, but when I select the icon in the Media console I get “Function not available”. When I go to settings I get screen...
