    First real OTA update for the Taycan 2020 and 2021 happening April 27th…

    Upgrade to the Connect services… see video at I received an email letter this morning detailing procedure because we must input our credential and PIN as well. Apparently many tries may be needed for all the online services to activate :headbang: They really are amateurs when it comes to...

    My mathematical mind's intuition was right ! Our Taycan's consumption figures are way off !

    I have suspected this for over a year. According to the indicator in the car and My Porsche data, the consumption gets better as the mileage increases, which is not true. I have been suspecting for a long time that the info was bogus, as the total average consumption was quite a bit lower than...

    Smartlift issues… 5 weeks at the dealer and no solution, yet !

    :angry: My car was at the dealer for 5 weeks. The issue is the phantom Smartlift issue. My vehicle is a 2020 and last summer it was updated to include Smartlift. At first it worked like a charm but after a few months it started working intermittently. Sometimes it would lift automatically...

    Sport Turismo Turbo S order…

    Have inquired about the new glass roof with variable light control. Also if I order the car (estate, shooting brake, wagon) in PTS Guards Red, may I order the Mission E wheels color-matched and also the interior door moldings ? If not Carmine Red again, but with black olea with guards red...

    Ionity reaches 400 charging locations today !

    One year late, not that bad considering COVID. Let us hope that other countries follow the French lead that is starting to build many and opening quite quickly as well.

    Possible explanation for disappearing Smart Lift …

    After a few phone calls with the head of service at my dealer, he inquired with Germany. I asked him if the number of GPS smart lift locations is limited. He advised me this afternoon tht it has only 150 slots ! I am quite sure I have exceeded the max. He is going to inquire if there is a...

    Ionity enters next stage of expansion with 700 million € investment from Blackrock.

    See http://ionity2025.eu it will expand locations and chargers. Hopefully this push comes sooner than later. From almost 400 locations to over a thousand and from about 1500 chargers to 7000. It is really a four year plan as this one is almost over.

    Bigger surprise as they just informed me they are going to change the main battery after many failures of onboard electrical issues.

    Always happened when trying to start the car after being shut off. Normally after two minutes of locking car, the message would disappear and I could nervously drive away. Only a couple of times I had to repeat the procedure. This would happen randomly. It could be after a short drive or...

    Big surprise on my 30,000 km. Service !

    Have mentioned Smartlift has been erratic for the last two months and they installed a software update campaign to no avail. Yet they tested it and see the same behaviour. Smartlift appears and disappears, sometimes it asks whether you want to save location, others not. Same for Smartlift...

    Charged half the battery capacity in 12 minutes ! Anybody can beat it ?

    As you can see I have charged 45kw in 12 minutes which is 225kw/h average rate. :clap:

    May have surmised why the initial average consumption shown is so high…

    I think I have finally figured it out… It includes the energy used to top up the 12 volt battery as soon as you start the car. In very few minutes it normalizes. Also, when you restart after a short stop with little or no 12V consumption, this does not happen.

    Ionity blasts with fast charging…

    I was on a trip about a month ago. Arrived with about 15% SOC and charged at Max until over 30%… Then was very surprised to see very high charging until 99% compared to some other times. I guess the stars were aligned.

    Nav and Porsche Charging app: Ionity new location showing up immediately.

    I noticed this afternoon that they opened a new Ionity location and I decided to see whether it appeared already on the Nav and Charging app. To my surprise there it was ! I check at least three times a day for new stations under construction or in operation. That is a little like watching...

    3rd slow puncture in 24,000 kms…

    I just suffered yesterday my third puncture on a rear tire and suspect someone may be behind this. My first time the tires had 2000-3000km of tread left so I just changed all four. 2000 kms. later another screw in my rear right tire. Since I had changed them recently, I only changed the...

    Traction control error, park vehicle safely...

    Suddenly when approaching an on-ramp to the highway, I got this message with no indication anything was wrong. I immediately put my right-hand indicator on, slowed and was able to take a parallel street and fortunately it had a clear parking lane. As I drove into it, the car started shuddering...

    Wouldn’t it be nice to have an instant electric consumption display… analogous to the indicators on some ICE cars ?

    Not difficult to implement by Porsche, but probably never going to be available… what do you think ?

    How did my Taycan spontaneously increase its SOC from 10% to 14% ???

    I arrived at home at 8pm this evening after an eventful day (including a new grandchild born) and with reduced SOC at 10% and 37km on the guess-o-meter. When I returned to the car three hours later to plug it in from my PMCC, I was surprised to see 14% and 52km on the guess-o-meter. It defies...
