This video was insightful in understanding the problems that plague the VW/Porsche/Audi family of software products. Legacy software players are trying to catch up to startups and Chinese competitors, which is very common across many companies in the marketplace. There are significant...

Great to hear, Taycan community. The backup camera issue will probably be resolved. Road and Track Acticle: Porsche Recalls 174,000 911s, Taycans, Panameras & Cayennes Over Backup Camera Issues

Trickle-charging the 12V battery is a preventive measure when your vehicle is parked and turned off for 21 weeks or more. Yep, good idea to leave your frunk open. 😉 You are probably using CTEK 56 -926 Lithium US.

LATEST UPDATES -- OK. Thank You!

Hi @prj Would you please comment on this page from the Taycan user manual (page 148)? Is what happened to @Mikegrr, or is his case special? All doors, covers, the hood, and the trunk should be closed. Question: @Mikegrr was your doors, trunk, and funk closed and locked? Deactivate...

I was cleaning out the Taycan yesterday in preparation to drop it off for the 20K service today. I did not start the car, so it was running on the 12V accessory battery. After about ~20 minutes, I received a message on the center display along the bottom in text (I forgot to capture a photo)...

Yep! Technology is improving, and the theft industry is moving into high tech, too. I use a Faraday bag to store my Taycan key fob. I take the key fob out when I need it, then put it back when I’m done. I generally avoid pressing the key fob to unlock the Taycan when I’m not at home. When I am...

Go to your vehicle’s app and download your Monroney Label (window sticker). Then, take it to the dealer who performed your warranty service and ask them to install the options listed for your car, since they were removed when the service was completed.

Check the PCM to see if it defaults to off (not activated) after they repaired your car.

Here is my captured data for you to compare. 2023 Taycan 4S - CPO 19K+ miles SOH versus Miles I have been using the OBD/CarScanner app to record the data since 3/2024. All recalls have been completed, except for ASA2, which requires replacing the front passenger seat cushion. I plan to call the...

ISSUE: I normally have to reboot my iPhone to connect to the PCM in the Taycan for CarPlay or BT to connect. ROOT CAUSE: I believe I have found the root cause in my case. When the iPhone is locked and I get into the car and start the Taycan, it may or may not connect. As a result, CarPlay...

If the window was not struck by a rock, it is possible that a stress fracture occurred. If you can remove the door panel, you may be able to see if the breakage started from the anchor points in the window lift mechanism. The dealer will probably tell you to file an insurance claim. When the...

Here are my Taycan tire and brake measurements. There was no abnormal wear on either the front or rear tires, but an alignment was recommended, which I declined. Your measurements are well within specification. My Taycan had 15,000 miles at the time of this service.

Agree! Both winter and summer impact battery performance—batteries provide better range in summer and reduced range in winter. The type of tire—winter or summer—is not the determining factor. Here is my data: 80% SOC: (230 - 220) miles of range in summer. 80% SOC: (200 - 190) miles of range in...

I order from Creative Steel. The height of the Porsche jack pad is higher than the one I used for the BMW. The width of the bar is also increased, resulting in more stability. The jack pad clearance from the car body side is increased. See the photos.

Here is my suggestion: Attach a long, flexible, thin hose to a commercial-grade car vacuum cleaner and insert it through the air vent.

Yes, I have had the same experience when backing out of my garage. However, I prefer to leave the sensor on to avoid hitting any objects I might not see. When entering or exiting the garage, I keep my left and right side mirrors closed due to the tight space. You do have the option to disable...

This is an excellent interview by State of Charge with EA about the past, present, and future of charging technologies.

Check whether the speed limiter is set to a specific MPH or KMH value. If so, disable the speed limiter function.

OK, Thanks for the update!
