Thanks for posting this!! Just got it to work after resigning myself to carrying the remote in the car. I went ahead and passed it along to my sales rep, as he too hadn't figured it out yet.
And on we go....
Cheers
When I first started charging at Electrify America in January, Porsche had their 30 min. free deal offered, but the Porsche App to facilitate connecting to EA wasn't yet working. I simply paid cash and kept track of each charge session. I put them all on a spreadsheet and have turned it in to my...
If all you get is the glass roof and end up hating it, you could always darken it with window tint film. The options are wide.
Personally I didn’t expect to like it, but ended up having no problem with it at all. It’s well tinted, reflects heat very well, and let’s in light. It is (like all...
(West Coast), my local dealership received their first 4S on Monday. It is a customer ordered car. First one they've seen. They've sold their demo Turbo they got in December, have one more customer Turbo in the "back" awaiting delivery. Mine was their first and only (so far) Turbo S from right...
Thank you for the diligence and hard work that went into your presentation. It is truly wonderful, and I can only hope that it plants a seed at Porsche AG. I encourage everyone to pass this along to the dealerships and sales reps you have worked with. The squeaky wheel gets the grease, as they...
Interesting fact about doing bodywork on the Taycan...
Porsche has to disconnect the 800V system, then of course re-connect it and then re-calibrate the rear sensors (in your case).
That runs close to $4K here.
Eventually the insurance companies will become aware of these (not usual) costs and...
I hope when you rise Sunday morning that you focus on the fun you had before the crash. How many miles did you manage before this happened? Hopefully a whole lot...to tide you over until it's back.
I have real empathy for how that feels. Sometime I'll tell the tale of my own misadventure in my...
Oh NO! I'm so sorry to hear that. What a horrible experience to have on your first day.
(Your loaner car is nice. I have both, so I know just how nice.)
Keep us posted on the repair, and know that this too will become a distant memory (and a good story).
Well, try and get some sleep tonight. You will want to be your best for tomorrow!
The weather forecast good?
Rain all week here....maybe sunny tomorrow :sun:
Home all week, social-distancing. Need to go for a drive...
Can't wait to hear all about it!! :cool:
Sorry, a bit slow on the uptake.
I drive in normal mode quite a bit so I have no issues with the dropping into 1st gear at slow speeds. I have only rarely noticed it. I drive my 911 with it in manual shift mode and use 1st gear routinely, so no big deal for me.
Getting in and out of the Taycan...
Congratulations Dee!!
What a beautiful build! Oh... are you going to love that car!!
I've been in mine since December and words can't describe what an incredible ride this thing is!
Enjoy and enjoy some more!! We can't wait to hear all about it once it's in your hands.
Feel free to elaborate...
As beautifully as this car performs, I'm in no hurry to get it updated. The dealership has only the Service Dept. working, and with a skeleton crew at that. Plenty of time to attend to updates once we come out of this pandemic insanity.
Think I'll just drive, and love it as is.
There is a single screw behind the light. It's a Torx T15, you'll have to turn the wheel to get room, but its fairly easy. Once the screw is out the light slides back and out just enough to get a finger in to release the electrical plug. Install is the reverse. Little tough to get a finger...
Perfect timing, about to die of boredom, UPS drops off the Clear Fender Markers!! At last something (else) to do all by myself!
Easy to do really, just the one screw.
This is coming together! Ceramic window tint on Tuesday, medium, not too dark, and now the clear fender marker lights!
I've experienced the same with my 911, but the Taycan has a wheel well liner that will have to be partially detached to access the fastener bolt securing the side marker light. It doesn't look like a big deal, just not quite as simple as swapping out the 911's. I'll tackle it when mine show up...
Finally In At Suncoast!! Just ordered a (set) of clear side markers for the Turbo S, though it states they fit all Taycan models. This will complete the look I was after! Pics to follow when I get them installed.
Good to know it's do-able! I was going to let my dealer come by and walk through it with me, as he has offered, but I'll try it solo now. (I'm hopeful it is like my new Carrera 4S, which has a GPS based door profile that appears on the screen when I get close enough to the garage.)
I too could...
The first picture of the lift over the wheels is a position used by Porsche for transportation. It is not managed by the driver controls and has to be released by the dealer service department. Once released to driver-managed positions, the lowered photo is the low position available to us to...
