  1. Premium Package Question

    Quick note on this (US-specific as the OP is US-based): The original sticker "Monroney sticker" for a vehicle is available for download (as a PDF) in the Porsche Connect App (both iOS and Android now work). This may not be available for older vehicles, but all Taycans should have it available...
  2. NHTSA Complaint - Sudden loss of drivability, unexpected gear disengagement - April 30, 2025

    The reported symptoms do not seem to be the same as the TSB. There's really not much overlap except that a Taycan is involved. In the TSB the primary symptom is that the vehicle shifts to neutral or park on its own. Vehicle can subsequently be put back into drive manually. TSB problem is a...
  3. 22KW OBC FAILURE INSIGHT & POSSIBLE SOLUTION

    Interesting thread. I worked for ST a million years ago (not on power devices). Some poking around on the Meta System and DEREN web sites suggests that this module's design was done in China, with manufacturing in Slovakia. I would assume they've long ago performed failure analysis and...
  4. Drivers Seat Bolsters Always Adjusts on Entry

    Also worth noting perhaps that comfort entry can be turned off (somewhere deep down in the PCM menus).
  5. Um, <cough>, where is the audio volume control?

    Don't worry -- it took us a couple of days too (the dealer pointed out the steering wheel control, to be fair, but not the center screen buttons).
  6. New owner: software/tech questions

    No I can't find clear, unambiguous authoritative information on these features. The manual you cite has obviously been edited over the years as features were added, by someone with not great English, and could use a total re-write or at least some serious editing preferably by someone who had...
  7. New owner: software/tech questions

    I spent a couple of weeks reverse engineering the same information. Then thought "perhaps I should post this". Then thought "nah it'd be really long and everyone will say read the manual (which as you know doesn't contain this information)". So bravo!
  8. On-board charger replacement options @ yellow Electrical System Fault @ out of warranty?

    I don't know anything about this system, so I'm theorizing as an electronic engineer and software developer and Taycan owner: 1. Charge control software may have unstable areas at the edge of the envelope -- imagine it has a control loop where it computes, say, HV charge current every second...
  9. Acoustically insulated laminated privacy glass option

    Taycan with this glass owner, and electronics engineer here... We haven't noticed a major issue, but a general feeling that GPS reception by the phone inside the vehicle might be a bit flaky at times. If the glass is attenuating RF by some amount, then what you'd see is no problem unless the...
  10. Dealer charging $1,995 registration fee for used Taycan?

    I've bought many cars outside my home state. It varies, but some states/dealers do charge my state's registration fees as part of the sale. Definitely confusing the first time it happens. My experience has been that they forward that cash (sometimes via a third party service) to my local DMV...
  11. No longer an owner :(

    I'm not so sure about that. I expect an industry to emerge refurbishing the batteries and potentially motors in EVs over the next 10 years. Unless the manufacturers do something to block that industry. That in turn seems difficult for them to do because EVs good for the environment...unless you...
  12. No lane departure warning on Taycan?

    Yeah as specified somewhere way above, I'm excluding ALK from this discussion. But it seems fine as a monolithic feature that you can enable or disable as needed.
  13. No lane departure warning on Taycan?

    No, and apologies I'm having a hard time articulating my needs -- I thought it would be fairly simple since countless rental cars I've driven are configurable that way. To clarify: I am looking for two checkboxes (or some other equivalent UI) where you've highlighted one in the image above...
  14. No lane departure warning on Taycan?

    Thanks. This confirms my experience that it is not possible to disable only LKA (but retain LDW).
  15. No lane departure warning on Taycan?

    Ok thanks. It's LKA that I would like to turn off, not LDW. It seems, although for some reason nobody has clearly said so, that my suspicions are correct: it is impossible to put the Tycan into a configuration where LDW is enabled but LKA is disabled. You can only have both on or both off...
  16. No lane departure warning on Taycan?

    I think you're talking about LKA here, not ALK (one randomly nudges the steering if it thinks you're in the wrong place, the other is supposed to drive smoothly in the lane without random nudges). Anyway, I disagree. I see LKA as quite dangerous. Perhaps because I live in a place that has snow...
  17. No lane departure warning on Taycan?

    Hi thanks. I have already read that thread. Neither it nor your post unfortunately answers my question. At least I don't think so. Question specifically is : how can lane keep be turned off, but lane departure warning kept ON? I think above you advised only how to turn both features on and off...
  18. No lane departure warning on Taycan?

    Greetings. I'm posting after spending a week boiling my brain trying to fully understand the Taycan from the manual, videos and historical posts here and elsewhere. So apologies if this has been gone over already. It appears that unlike other vehicles that have lane departure warning and lane...
