  1. Fault code guidance

    Some codes may show just because the cables were disconnected at one point, some fault codes may just be gone and never return after clearing them. Get MapEV Diag (search here on the forum), it's free and will show you the exact codes. You only need some cheap $10 ENET cable to connect your...
  2. Rubystone Red '92 Carrera RS

    I had that car in that color in scale 1/18 when I was a kid, Targa version but anyway. I didnt have much toys at that time, that 1/18 was my pride and joy. Told myself one day I'd have a Porsche ... we did it boy, we did it LOL :) Even considered wrapping my Taycan in Rubystone Red as a tribute...
  3. Trouble with locking feature

    You can tap the precool/heat button in the lower screen to keep the climate control active for up to 1 hour to keep your pet/passenger cool/warm. It should show on the screen, after you turn off the car ... just do not open the door until you see the message.
  4. Badge or not

    I don't mind the badge on the taycan, I usually keep badges in the same color as my window-trim ... so in my case gloss black.
  5. Electric Sport Sound option - should you get it?

    I have it, it's off 95% of the time ... but yeah, the other 5% of the time I do kinda like it :) Also very useful to alert cyclists/pedestrians ... they are often unaware of their surroundings until they actually hear something behind them. Could also just use the horn for this, but the ESS is...
  6. Boot manual manipulation

    The boot sensor is even more sensitive than your typical gen-Z kid. In the beginning I re-arranged things, pushed things further down, attempting to let it close 2-3-4 times until it was happy. Now if it stops nearly closed, I always push it down and be done with it ... I push on the spoiler...
  7. Taycan CT turbo tyres

    275 tires can have different tread widths, with some close/same as a 265 depending on the brand/type. I think it might work if you pick a 275 tire with the lowest tread width? tirerack for example will list the tread width for each tire The height difference is very small prj seems to be...
  8. Disabling air bag for furry friend

    The switch is in your glovebox, take out the emergency-key from your keyfob to switch it to off. It's in the instructions-manual in the porsche-app, so RTFM ;) Have fun with the new pup, they get big before you know it.
  9. I have somewhere an hidden Donkey in my car

    I'd guess something to do with the brake booster? Diaphragm No idea why it would make that same noise when not applying the brake, perhaps it's trying to keep pressure/vacuum but air is escaping/coming in. (not a mechanic by any means)
  10. Thinking of pulling trigger--2022 Taycan base w/21K miles

    A taycan without the bigger battery is not for everybody, it's a very expensive option, so that should show in the price. No air suspension, it makes the car sit just a little too high for my taste, but ride quality is also fine on standard suspension. Overall good looking car with those...
  11. Anyone run yours with Michelin Pilot Sports 4S?

    I've had them in 22" on my previous EV SUV, I liked them, good grip (when at temperature) and they will last long. They do get a bit noisy as the tread wears down and get hard as a rock when temp goes below freezing, but that's to be expected from a summer performance tire.
  12. 2020 Taycan Turbo screech when turning LEFT at moderate speeds

    I have the exact same thing. Indeed only when turning left. Mine is also MY 2020, with the 8 piston brake calipers (PSCB) Havent had it checked out or looked into it myself but I'm thinking CV joint. Car also likes to pull a bit to the left under hard acceleration, possibly related.
  13. My Porsche dealer is refusing to give me a replacement vehicle

    Never had an issue getting a loaner when the car is having waranty-work done. You indeed may need to wait (a bit) longer to get an appointment, they usually don't have tons of loaners just sitting around. Once had to swap the dealer loaner with some rental car (paid for by the dealer/Porsche AG)...
  14. Fake simulated gear changes coming to Porsche EVs ?

    As long as all those gimmicks can be turned on/off it's all fine with me. I do like the sport sound ... sometimes :) Can't deny it does add something to the experience, but for regular driving it's pointless. I've had an audi with CVT gearbox that could simulate gears, either with the "gear"...
  15. Do I really need to pay $27/month to see my Taycan’s range on my phone?

    The more expensive the car/brand, the less you are allowed to think rationally about price. You’ve got to pay to play ... even if what you get in return is mediocre at best. I must not be suited for high(er)-end cars, because I also think the price for a basic feature is too high and therefor...
  16. Awful rattle coming from both front doors

    I had possibly a similar rattle ... the glass is held in place with 2 brackets ... there is a torx screw at the bottom of the bracket, the screw basically points straight upwards ... it's very hard to see, need to use the camera of your phone to see it. I turned that one ever so slightly and...
  17. New Charger 7.4kw installed only charging at 1.4kw

    Check the settings (in the app), it's output is configurable between 6 - 32A
  18. CHANGE OUT MODEL designation plate - center console?

    partnumber for one with only "taycan" on it: 9J1864365
  19. PCM issue & dashcam

    Mine is from a "brand" called ARB, on aliexpress :) Same style as the popular fitcamx, well the discreet version ... I initially ordered that style from fitcamx but they sent me a somewhat bigger/less discreet style. Anyway, it taps into the power of the rain-sensor with an included cable, just...
