    New Charger-related recall (for the 240 V cable) (NHTSA ID 23V-841)

    The language in this internal memo gives me hope that PCNA will reimburse for a wall charger, and not limit reimbursement to a "3rd party mobile charger" as stated in the customer recall notice. The internal memo to dealers does not use the word "mobile", and mentions installation cost (which...

    New Charger-related recall (for the 240 V cable) (NHTSA ID 23V-841)

    Has anyone succeeded in obtaining the $600 "goodwill" reimbursement for a wall charger? The recall notice says, "To be eligible, you must include the following information . . . Proof of purchase of a 3rd party mobile charger . . . ." @daveo4EV has a ton of great advice in this thread for...

    New Charger-related recall (for the 240 V cable) (NHTSA ID 23V-841)

    Same for me today. BTW I have never used this EVSE since I bought the Taycan new in October 2020.

    Is this what I think it is? Electrical system error

    Alternative to Porsche tire sealing kit?

    Some types of EV-spec tires such as a couple different types of NF0 rated tires I use on the Taycan have a sound absorbing foam strip inside. How well does tire sealant work when injected into a tire that has a foam strip inside? I’m struggling to imagine how the sealant makes its way to the...

    How would you grade Porsche?

    I’m mostly aligned with your argument, but……… Consider what happens when you don’t have a choice about getting rid of your car, particularly when it is totaled in an accident. The insurance companies will generally only pay out the depreciated value, although I’ve read that some insurance...

    Thoughts on this offer ? 2022 4S from Germany

    Yes, you can check the battery condition of a Taycan using an OBDII reader. https://www.taycanforum.com/forum/threads/baseline-for-hv-battery-soh-performance.12815/post-279964

    Rear GTS alloys have rockchips

    Yes, I just had my wheels refinished for this. I think it was from driving through gravel at high speed.

    In case you were wondering how much a battery costs

    I wonder if that price is before core charge, which would be added if you are not returning a refurbishable battery. I had my HV battery replaced in December under warranty, and the costs (covered under warranty) were $44,400 for the battery + $13,065 core charge (refundable if refurbishable)...

    Is preheat killing my range or is this normal?

    I recommend you check the cell map with the Car Scanner app. https://www.taycanforum.com/forum/threads/baseline-for-hv-battery-soh-performance.12815/post-279964

    Anyone get notified for NHTSA 23V-840 yet?

    I'm puzzled by the traceability that is entirely to new vehicles. Porsche sold replacement HV battery assemblies manufactured in the same date range. How are they absolutely certain that all defective HV battery assemblies were installed in the 205 new vehicles and that none of the defective...

    Is this what I think it is? Electrical system error

    Have you considered checking the cell map with the Car Scanner app as many of us have done? I had two bad cells before I got the red error message, and that seems to be typical. Then you are at an information advantage when the dealership service department calls you with their diagnosis. Some...

    Porsche Connect Service Cost is $319 in the US

    In one of the prior threads on this topic, @Capt Mike reported that his free EA charging extended for a fourth year when he renewed his Porsche Connect subscription. I had the same experience last year. That may change your cost/benefit analysis depending on your use of EA charging...

    Interested in an unofficial Apple Watch app?

    So this is data that the watch would only receive while in WiFi or Bluetooth range of the OBDII device in the car? I was thinking it would be great to get watch alerts concerning charging status while taking a break in a restaurant, but that would be out of range.

    Did I get a bad car?

    When I reviewed your posts I didn’t see where you mentioned the results of the cell maps in the Car Scanner app. So your cells with the highest and lowest voltages very close to the average cell voltage?

    Did I get a bad car?

    @ciaranob, your extremely helpful mega-thread on this topic, now with over 600 posts, includes some discussion about bad cell maps. I and others have had an overall SoH considered low, but not low enough given the mileage to trigger Porsche warranty service, which turned out to be mostly due to...
