    Shorter delivery time with different dealership?

    It has to do with allocations. Porsche allocates vehicles to dealers based on dealer volume and location in the U.S. High-volume dealers get more allocations. Allocations are also broken down by vehicle class. Higher volume locations tend to be able to move the more esoteric models. Some dealers...

    Not great news for VW/Porsche...

    2024 Taycan sales are down by more than 50% over 2023 sales (Panorama magazine, Sep 2024): "Porsche has joined the ranks of manufacturers who have realized that the transition to electric vehicles (EVs) is simply not happening nearly as quickly as predicted several years ago. Porsche has...

    My Turbo S finally brakes like I imagined it would, after the brake hose recall fix and 85,000 kms. of uneasy braking feel.

    @Pozuelo Regarding: This is a known issue with Taycans. There is a service campaign regarding long pedal braking. It is solved with a bleed or flush & fill. It could recur on your car over time. Just keep it in mind. Here is one of the threads on the subject among others.

    San Francisco to Palm Desert rt: charging recommendation?

    I made the trip once before using the Porsche planner. Unfortunately, it led me to chargers advertised as DC 350kW but were, in reality, low-power CHAdeMO chargers owned by an apartment manager. What is the top advantage of ABRP over PIRM? I found a few threads about hacking a connection...

    San Francisco to Palm Desert rt: charging recommendation?

    Hi Forum, I'm planning a little run from San Francisco to Palm Desert. My MY21 Turbo S tops out at 220 mi at 100% SOC and 180 mi at 80% SOC, so I'll need to tank up on the way. Please share if anyone has recommendations (good or bad experiences) for charging along the I5 - I10 route...

    Do you hear the difference in sound when playing music in the car with lossless quality on Apple Music or just high quality on Spotify on Porsche Tayc

    I primarily use wireless because I'm too lazy to open the armrest and plug in the phone (my daily commute is only 2 miles). But for longer trips, I use wired.

    Do you hear the difference in sound when playing music in the car with lossless quality on Apple Music or just high quality on Spotify on Porsche Tayc

    My car has the Burmester system, and one can hear the difference between HD tracks from stored HD audio (e.g., on a device) or Tidal HD streaming versus Spotify or HD Radio. Spotify, HD Radio, or MP3 audio have less dynamic range than HD audio tracks (FLACC, 96 kHz, 24-bit sampling, or even...

    Taycan charging question

    @Jhenson29 Wow. Best explanation of minimum charge meaning. Thank you. The use of "minimum" has hertofore confused me as a single-profile user. Practical scenario: One lives in an area with time-of-day rate changes. For example, charging after 2:00 a.m. is half the unit cost of daytime...

    New Goodyear NF1 Tires

    After a second tire was lost to pothole damage (sidewall bulge) at 17,275 miles, I am having to replace the Goodyear F1s. The rears are at 4/32. The wearbar is at 3/32. New tires are 10/32. I have tire and rim insurance, so the damaged front tire is covered. A second front (installed) is $617...

    If stock paint, ask your dealer if the handle can be replaced.
