    Need help locating DC fast charger

    Yes. There are a couple of sit-down chain restaurants there. Red Robin is one I think.

    Need help locating DC fast charger

    Yes. It’s at a WalMart. It is the ONLY ElectrifyAmerica station in Maine. So, yes, I’ve used it. It’s only 7 miles from where I live. You might not have time for a meal. Your car could be recharged in 30-40 minutes. :) There’s a charger in the Gardiner Service Plaza (where 295 rejoins...

    Need help locating DC fast charger

    There are two EA stations along your route. Seabrook, NH and Scarborough, ME. You probably don’t even need the Seabrook station In the car, enter the final destination. The car should then find stations along the way. Do you have the Porsche “Charging NA” app? That app is used to activate...

    2 hour computer update at dealership just received letter

    Very early cars had a 12v battery with bad firmware. You want the updated battery. I seem to recall seeing a -1 volume. Is it possible that a music source that you last used is no longer there? (Like removing a USB stick).

    My car died overnight-12v

    Agreed. I don’t have any idea where the “next” bugs are. They haven’t bitten me ... yet. But clearly there’s something else going on.

    Anyone got a good way to load a Trip with multiple charging stops?

    I have serious empathy. I developed the same kind of spreadsheet each night before the next day’s travel. First Tip: Enter your destination first, then each stopover in reverse order. Each new stopover wants to be the very next place you go. (Or, as you saw, you can just enter them and...

    My car died overnight-12v

    Sorry to hear that. I assume, since you took delivery in August, that it has the updated 12v battery, and updated firmware. It seems there’s still a bug or two lurking in that system I’m interested to hear what the dealership says.

    Just a teaser. The Taycan loves snow.

    All weather charging

    It’s hilarious... the second time. Because “dammit, I knew that was gonna happen... because it happened before.” It’s especially funny when you’ve pre-conditioned the car. And turned on the rear-window defroster. So now there’s a thin layer of melted snow on the glass. But the frozen...

    I have that option “on”. But I have not seen any notification of an OTA update.

    Don Breaks His Taycan - The Saga of the 12v Battery

    As awd said, yes, the seats are mechanically released. I seem to recall I could reach back and pull the interior handle to open the rear door. (So I didn’t have to climb over). Because that’s where I store my emergency battery: in the forward part of the trunk. Up against the back seats.

    All weather charging

    All of our cables in the US are tethered. As long as your cable/charging station rates it for outdoor use, it should be fine. My ChargePoint charging station is outside. It is rated for snow and rain. No problem. I’ve never really had an issue with transferring rain/snow/dirt into the car. I...

    Don Breaks His Taycan - The Saga of the 12v Battery

    Glad you were able to wake the car up again. Everyone: It’s very important that your service department report this to Porsche EVERY time this happens. It appears there are other causes for the 12v failure. Porsche *might* think they have solved this issue. While being able to recover the car...

    Tesla v3 Supercharging...open?

    Sadly that blog post was all speculation. No investigation. No interviews. 2nd and 3rd hand anecdotes. Sigh.

    Taycan 4S tuning - hypothetically

    What exactly do you expect to “tune”? Are you going to swap in the electronics of a Turbo or Turbo S? Are you expecting that the only difference is a few config values? Do you have access to the part catalog to see what parts are different?
