Just a little warning for those who are considering having your car delivered to a dealer or experience center in a warm climate, then take it home somewhere where temperatures fall below 0C (32F). Porsche ships non-anti-freeze windshield washer fluid for PDI to dealers in warm climates, so if...
So I finally confirmed my fears, there is no Verizon coverage inside my garage with its door closed. This means the app cannot connect to the car if I for example want to pre-heat it. It is one of my primary usecases for the app. :(
Did anyone find any way (besides moving to Russia, where...
I speced noise insulated glass because I wanted to enjoy driving in silence. However, I noticed recently that there is faint, high pitch noise inside my Taycan, reminding me of transformer coil whine, if I was to estimate it is somewhere around 14KHz in pitch (so pretty high). I am not sure...
I am going to switch between winter and summer tires. Both sets have Porsche TPMS installed. Once switched, anything special that I need to do to make the car read the new set of tire pressures, or will it just work?
I only picked up my Taycan a week ago, and just realized that suspension height doesn't seem to associate with the driving mode. For example, the car is in Normal mode and at Regular height. I then switch to Sport mode, car stays at same height. I then switch the car to Low height (while in...
Quick question to US owners, did you have to create an EA account and somehow link it for the Porsche 3 year free charging, or did Porsche do it for you (or maybe send you an invite link to create an EA account linked to Porsche)? Or how do you access Porsche 3 year free charging from EA app?
I am planning a long road trip, so I figured I would ask the community:
What are your favorite route planners to use on road trips? I come from Tesla, so I'm spoiled, as the built-in system does a great job planning routes, showing all the information one needs about charger locations, their...
I have a set of brand new Continental ProContact RX tires available for local pickup around Charleston, SC. The tires just came off a brand new Taycan as I swapped them for winter tires for some cross country travel. DM me if interested. Limited time window (shipping out this weekend).
[Adding a February delivery thread, now that January is coming to an end.]
My car was originally scheduled for mid December last year, but is currently on the Supreme Ace, scheduled to offload in Jacksonville on 2/3. The ship appears to have passed the point where last year about the same time...
I used to be able to My Porsche online and under my car there is link to the user manual:
however clicking it today me to this message:
I made sure I was logged in, still forbidden from viewing the manual. Which brings me to my question: is there anywhere I can download a user manual for a...
If one pays for the WiFi hotspot option, is the WiFi hotspot active 24/7? I don't care about hooking up phones to it, but thought about connecting a dashcam and being able to access it when the car is parked somewhere, via the WiFi hotspot.
Has anyone here had to ship tires in the US before? What’s a good way to ship them? I see on eBay that sellers ship 4 tires for $200. Anyone know what shipping service that is?
Did anyone measure light transmissivity of the thermally and noise insulated windows? I saw in videos it's slightly darker than non insulated glass, but could not find the percentage transmissivity. I'd like to use that number so that I can order the appropriate tint film ahead of the car's...
As I'm considering driving my Taycan home from the dealer (3,000 miles), I'm looking for temporary power for a dashcam, radar, phone charger, etc. 3 of the things I have need 12V, others can do USB-C. How many 12V plugs and USB-C's are there in a Taycan CT front console? Anyone know the 12V max...
Anyone activate their online updates while the car was still in Germany? My car is still sitting in Emden, but the web UI allows me to activate online updates remotely (one of the few things I can do without entering the code on the PCM screen). Does it do anything while still in transit? Will...
My TYD just reported production complete for my car today. So I decided to dig through some of the web metadata. While I did not find production photos as per this thread yet. I decided to see what else I can find. Turns out, my TYD page contains what I believe is my car's VIN number. So I...
I recently switched phones. When I installed the Porsche good to know app, when I go to download the information it tells me this:
When click the download button, it takes me to the App Store and gives this error:
Evidently GTK app links directly to a country specific version from where the...
I'm curious, has anyone in North America tried swapping our the tail lights with a European version to get the amber rear turn indicators in the rear? If so, was it just a part swap, or did some ECU's have to get reprogrammed too?
Has anyone in the community come across a pinout for any of the Porsche ECU modules? For example, pinout for the Taycan gateway module below
for the 2 connectors shown here?
