No, I didn't get them yet. They quoted a lead time of 3 weeks when I ordered them 2 weeks ago. As we'll get snow next week, I hope they'll make it soon.
For the very new cars: How about driving the car for 1.000 miles or so and then re-checking? In my 4S range crept up and up. Even though the car is parked outside in zero degrees Celsius right now, it shows 425km. And I found the range meter quite useful, at least semi-accurate.
In any case, if...
You may want to check under the hood. Both the long, thin, black plastic part aligned to the outer metal part over the wheel and the "boxy", black plastic part connected to the bonnet can get loose and vibrate. I had it reproducibly at 150+km/h, it can be very annoying... and it can be at least...
My wife puts the 4 children (4, 6, 10, 11) in the car - but what then with me :)?!? More seriously, the T4S has become our daily driver for everything, except when we all 6 go for a drive. I have no experience with dogs, though; that may be a very limiting factor.
I think the advice of waiting...
I hope there is a fix... my T4S had the same fault today and didn't want to move. After waiting an hour, the error message was gone and it would have moved again, but Porsche considered that as too risky and towed it.
Last Saturday, it also showed the "gear box out of order" error, which also...
I think the Rivian is very beautiful and I like the 7 seats, but my guess is it will take long to be available and supported in Germany. And personally I have doubts about the wheel hub motors and their longevity.
Edit: I learned from the posts below that they are *not* hub motors - good!
Hello,
I think your key requirement is that the two chargers have to communicate with each other, to limit the combined charging load.
First of all, I would not risk to buy a setup where you don't know beforehand that it will work, because communication even between just one charger and one...
All in my humble opinion, of course:
The C7 was the first Corvette that really had good, if not very good driving, handling, braking characteristics
The V8 has a great rumble and mean sound, it really is an orchestra
It is also nice and smooth at 250km/h on the Autobahn, not just when...
Same here. My wife and I have four cars but essentially drive only one. We actually consider selling 1-2 of the older ICE cars, because we just don't use them any more and they feel odd compared to the T4S.
And funnily enough, when I was at the Porsche center last week to pick up my car from a repair, I *did* ask the dealer how much it would cost to upgrade to a Turbo :-).
Hello,
as a datapoint, I just bought these 21" wheel rims (Schmidt Revolution Drago "Hellcat") with Michelin Pilot Alpine XL 5 winter tires. The manufacturer was quite interested in getting them onto a Taycan and is sponsoring an extra expertise for the car/rim combination (this is mandatory in...
