    Yet another electrical system error - ARB6 software in action?

    Progress. For the last two months the car had been in privacy mode and then hard shut down with no battery in it. Yesterday my home screen widget on my phone showed it was actively charging. No news from the SA, but I can see them cycling the battery now which I take to be a sign of tangible...

    I saw it in person at the Porsche Museum: The most hideous Taycan ever made!

    I see this one around town. And you can rent it apparently https://driveshare.com/car/2023-porsche-taycan-10096

    Yet another electrical system error - ARB6 software in action?

    Closing in on 8 weeks since mine went in. Latest was work was going smoothly, but the repairs are not done in one repetition" and it would be a while still. Later in the week it was another "work ongoing, will update again next week." SA has been good with 1-2 updates per week regardless of if...

    Yet another electrical system error - ARB6 software in action?

    A similar thought has been floating in my head. When this ordeal started for me I questioned if I'd trust the car to be good going forward. I'm not driving a loaner base Macan around for another 1~1.5 months. Agree. My wife's Escalade has the L87 motor recently in the news for sudden failures...

    Yet another electrical system error - ARB6 software in action?

    Minutes after my post I got a note saying parts were coming in and they'd start work soon. Not an exact ETA, but better than a "no change" update.

    Yet another electrical system error - ARB6 software in action?

    I had a similar thought regarding a potential surge in replacement module demand. What's frustrating as I cross the month mark (not including the 10 days it was previously in the shop for the same error two weeks earlier that the dealer said was fine) is the lack of any sort of estimated...

    Yet another electrical system error - ARB6 software in action?

    I'm a month in to waiting on replacement battery modules and have a base 2025 Macan. 23 miles on the odometer when I got it, 900+ now. I can't wait to get out of it and back into my Taycan 😭 Early on the SA said "this is going to take a while, I'll give weekly updates instead of daily." Hope it...

    Red Circle of DEATH

    Just heard the dealer is ordering parts to do "cell block replacement." He noted it takes a while, so I'll l I'll get a weekly update from here 🫤.

    Red Circle of DEATH

    Welp, looks like I won't make it to the 12th. Woke up to a brick this morning and it didn't reset itself this time. 6am it was going nowhere. 830am still no go. 8pm nada. Think it's either straight to the dealer in the morning (if it'll go), or a breakdown service tow request to yank it out of...

    NHTSA Complaint - Surround view/backup camera system recurring failures - August 12, 2025

    I've had this issue. Brought it up with the dealer and showed a picture. Was told they have to have a video of Porsche would deny the claim. For me it only seems to happen after driving in the rain though, and haven't done that in a while.

    Fitcamx dashcam installation

    I have a looooot of video from inside my garage when plugged in to my home charger. So, I believe yes.

    Red Circle of DEATH

    Following this thread as on the 11th my car Red Circled after sitting in the parking garage for ~8hrs. Had Porsche roadside assistance tow it to the dealer. The good ol' wait 2hrs trick meant it looked fine by the time the tow truck arrived. Dealer eventually got back to me that the car had...

    CT vs. ST and best color for entertaining overseas guests

    I pulled up the model comparison on Porsche's website. It appears the CT Turbo / Turbo S match pretty closely with the GTS ST. The CT 4 and 4S list slightly larger rear cargo volume: 14.3cuft vs 15.8cuft. The height difference between any of them Is zero when the ground clearance difference is...

    CT vs. ST and best color for entertaining overseas guests

    I've got an ST, carmine red. It gets a lot of positive comments. It stands out ... a lot. It isn't nearly as spacious in the rear as you might think. I sit far forward (short legs) and the room behind me is acceptable, but not fantastic IMO. The front passenger usually pushes their seat pretty...

    High Voltage Battery Recall EXPANDED - ARB6 & ARB7

    Sorry to stray off topic a bit, but what is the camera repair you're in for? I've complained that my front camera stops working intermittently, but two different dealers have both said "sorry, working fine when we use it." Most recently I was told they wouldn't do anything unless I took a video...

    High Voltage Battery Recall EXPANDED - ARB6 & ARB7

    Fun fact, the error was because "a cell was too warm" according to the SA. The car had been sitting in a parking garage for 8hrs at that point (not charging) at a 67% SoC. The SA asked permission to remove the 80% limit in my General Profile I'd set previously and charge to 100%. I asked if it...

    High Voltage Battery Recall EXPANDED - ARB6 & ARB7

    Correct. I could go to neutral and park as my only options. But given this error has a long history on this forum I do not yet know if there is a relation or not to the 6/7 campaign. I was under the same impression regarding the alert as you. There was a 6/7-related action during my July service...

    High Voltage Battery Recall EXPANDED - ARB6 & ARB7

    True. Burning down my office would have been a bad look come review time. And I didn't have my s'mores kit with me so would have been doubly unfortunate.
