    Electrify Canada

    You will need the Electrify Canada app, bot you should call them re free charging. I am told that we Canadians don’t get free EA charging, so the reverse may apply to you.

    Taycan Cool Bag

    i have one. It doesn’t hold very much. You aren’t missing anything.

    Squeaking/squealing noise (outside of car)

    No, mine is a squeal while driving and seems to go away with breaking. It is not the same as yours which seems to happen when you apply the brakes coming to a stop. You are correct, an expensive car like this shouldn’t have that sound from brakes!

    Squeaking/squealing noise (outside of car)

    My car was in for a speaker replacement last week and I put the squeaking noise on the list. The dealer has sold lots of Taycans and said this issue has been reported by other cars. They think it is in the motor and seems to show up in very hot weather. Other than that, no fix known. But it’s...

    Active Lane Keeping - Dangerous?

    I find it to be very inconsistent and don’t trust it. Therefore have stopped using.

    Adaptive Cruise Control. Should I add Active Lane Keeping?

    I find Active Lane Keeping to be inconsistent and I wouldn‘t pay for it if I was ordering again. Innodrive has some strange behaviours and I don’t use mine. The Adaptive Cruise Control is good. From my perspective one buys a Porsche to drive if rather than have a computer do it!

    AC Chargers in Alberta

    You are a charger expert now! Thanks for your interesting posts. My recent 2,000 km trip in the same region reduced my range anxiety, showing that the Taycan performs consistently. The challenge is to know where the working chargers are located (ideally DC Fast). Then you drive to a low SOC...

    Horrible cell phone reception in Taycan - any solutions?

    Thanks. I often put my phone in the charger, however I didn’t realize that connected it to the external antenna. Leaning Taycan nuances every day!

    Squeaking/squealing noise (outside of car)

    i have the same sound. Can really hear it in an enclosed parking lot. Mine goes away if I press the brake pedal.

    Vancouver to Rockies Road Trip Experience (1,964km)

    The car resides in AZ! A big contrast driving the 56 compared to my Taycan.

    PetroCanada DC charging

    My sessions started OK, but stopped after a few minutes. Bad system if the user has to hold up the cord to get it to work!

    Yes, I have used EC in Hope, except there was a line up on Sunday!

    Vancouver to Rockies Road Trip Experience (1,964km)

    About the Chevy - You asked, here it is! Old school. Belair with a big block 454 and dual four barrels.

    [Almost Official] "960" Taycan Coupe / Convertible on the way

    I would buy a Taycan-like 2 door convertible in a heart beat. Keep us informed.

    PetroCanada DC charging

    I had problems at the Petro Canada chargers in Hope on Sunday. The session would start, then abruptly stop after a few minutes. Both chargers did the same thing. Also had that issue in Golden BC a few days prior. Any other Canadians watching this thread have issues with Petro Canada?

    Vancouver to Rockies Road Trip Experience (1,964km)

    This post will be of interest primarily to Taycan owners in BC and Alberta (and other car geeks), mainly around car performance and charging. I just returned from a loop road trip from Vancouver to the Rockies (with wife, golf clubs and luggage in the car). Day 1 - Vancouver to Shuswap…440km...

    AC Chargers in Alberta

    Where did you charge between Kamloops and Jasper? I am heading to Jasper next week on the same route you took. I recently took a trip to Vernon and found that PIRM was quite accurate, but was conservative. I was driving mainly in range mode and with cruise control, 10% over the speed limit. I...

    ABRP or PIRM?

    I use this same process. I use ABRP to scope the trip, then Porsche NAV in the car. When driving I found the PIRM to be very accurate, biased a little on the conservative side. On longer trips where I will need to stop to charge, I usually drive in range mode with cruise control which seems to...
