  1. Should I let my 17 year old son drive my car?

    If you decide to let him drive it alone, Install a dashcam that also records the speed, tell him you can review the footage and if you see something you don't like or wasn't agreed on, there will not be a next time taking out the Taycan. Allowing him to take his friends in the car, without you...
  2. Taycan Panel Gap - Inside Door Trim

    It literally takes 2 minutes to take the door panel off (I've done it multiple times when I had a rattle) its just 2 screws and then some banging with your fist to move the door panel upwards, then maybe 4 minutes to put it all back, I'm sure they can take a quick look even if you show up...
  3. ARB6 orange warning triangle in MyPorsche App

    Also got the ARB6 letter (first letter ever, never got one for the brake hoses and other recalls), I'm not going to bother getting it checked every 60 days ... I'll just wait until the software is ready
  4. Changing drive modes without Sport Chrono

    If it has SC, there will be no "sport" button you can tap on that screen. If the CT has the offroad package, it will probably say "gravel" without SC and no offroad package it will say "sport"
  5. Retrofitting original sport chrono clock

    thank you for the info, your post made me more confident to take on this job soldering to the existing wires makes me a bit nervous so I might get 12v from an add-a-fuse thingy with 12v pigtail and ground from the bolt near the fuse-box just need to run some longer wire then It will allow me...
  6. Retrofitting original sport chrono clock

    I knew this thread was going to cost me money ... after convincing myself the past year I don't really need the chrono, I now went looking for the parts and I found a cheap OEM chrono with dashboard trim so I bought it :) so now sourcing a 1C0973119B with pins then run the 3 wires (about 15...
  7. Right front side fan seizing, dying. Still drivable?

    Its not really seizing/dying, that fan turns on and off like that frequently by design. Mine also can make a fair amount of noise every now and then, lots of dirt and small stones seem to accumulate in that area. Once had a co-worker alarming me something was wrong with my car while it was...
  8. POLL - How much would you pay for Porsche Connect

    For an EV I do feel like being able to check charging status and battery percentage should be considered basic functionality and would expect this to be included for at least 10 years. I understand nothing is free, it will get added somewhere in the base-price, maybe have it renew for another...
  9. TSB: Replacement of High-Voltage Battery on Vehicles up to Model Year 2024 - Feb. 24, 2025

    What could help make the battery fail? Always charge to 100% and charge very slow? asking for a friend ;)
  10. Piwi diagnostic program for Porche Taykan

    anybody familiar with coding for a reverse camera? I have some aftermarket camera that suddenly stopped working, only getting the sensors overlay. Car went through some PCM updates at the dealer, thinking maybe codes have been restored to factory defaults. It seems like I only found something...
  11. Piwi diagnostic program for Porche Taykan

    @carlos vilarinho i see you are running Piwis 41.500, does everything work OK with your Taycan? Just asking because I have 41.600 (also with diagnostics 38.250), but Taycan isn't showing up in simulation mode (my 6154 V1.6.6 dongle is on its way from china). Maybe it will work just fine if it...
  12. Apple CarPlay will not connect, asks to be connected via usb?

    Make sure your phone isn't connecting to the wifi of your Taycan that is used for hotspot ... if it does, go in your phones settings and make it "forget" the Taycan wifi so it doesn't auto-connect to it. edit: well not sure about this, but worth a try
  13. Car won't start charging in cold weather

    I once had the "Error charging not possible" (11kw charger) ... on the very first day of owning the car. Took it to ionity, didn't want to charge DC either. Made it home in range mode with 2-3% battery left, plugged in the Porsche charger in a regular outlet, charging at 2kw ... worked fine. Has...
  14. Best dash cam for the Taycan?

    After fitcamx shipped me a different style cam than the one on their pic (and same as in the pictures above this message), I ended up with some other brand at half the price from aliexpress that has that same look ... does the job just fine. Only one issue, it stores "accident" videos in a...
  15. Considering a Taycan Turbo (2021)

    115K is too much, even though it has low mileage, it is a pre-facelift. You are basically paying a big premium for the low mileage. Even 100K is still a lot for a "regular" turbo. As long as it has Porsche extended/approved warranty you should be good. Our company in Belgium (Antwerp region)...
  16. Do I need to extend the warranty?

    100% extend the warranty, and do so before the factory warranty expires or they need to do a full checkup and that's going to cost you extra.
  17. Do ya’ll wheels spin when you floor it?

    You are right, as long as you don't mix them on the same axle, its still allowed (but possibly not ideal). Previous owner had a non repairable puncture in one of the rears between the moment he sold us the car and the moment he dropped it off ... so I ended up with brand new rear tires, but he...
  18. Do ya’ll wheels spin when you floor it?

    I rarely see the traction-control light come on, but it sure can be a little bit twitchy when you floor it at low speed/stop. I have 21", goodyears in front and some cheap(er) non NF0 Hankook Ventus S1 Evo3 in the back. Make sure your tyre pressures are within spec, over-inflating them may give...
  19. Are Porsche Connect services required to preheat, even from the PCM timer settings?

    I dont have an active porsche connect subscription, but preheat with the timer in PCM works fine for me. I dont have charging profiles set, but that shouldnt matter. There is also a setting where it will preheat for 5 minutes when you unlock the car with the remote. (dont expect much of it...
  20. Comms module failure

    The window being fully open only happened once, at the same time the LTE issue got fixed. I keep my car unlocked when its in the (in-house) garage, it never gets that cold there either. Privacy is set to ON. Car used to re-login into my porsche account several times for no reason while sitting...
