I don't know for sure but it seems like the TPMS issue has not been discussed much lately on the Porsche forums (Rennlist). They are delivering 911s now without the electronically adjustable steering column - and will retrofit at the dealership when chips available. That's been getting...
Bishu Highway is about half way across the Atlantic right now. It is due into Baltimore on July 27th - first stop. My dates also changed as soon as the car was assigned to the ship and they had an estimated departure date from the port, so that's what it sounds like for you. Of course your...
No, the ship on your TYD is correct. They do not note the ship's name on TYD until your car is assigned to it. The Siem Aristotle arrived at the port of Emden late yesterday. It will take a couple days to load and refuel, and with the weekend coming up it may not leave until early Monday or...
Sounds insane to me and is certainly not a "Porsche" thing. If you're walking, please share the name of the dealership. Again, assuming you're walking, I'd also send a letter to PCNA and ask them if this is commonly done across their dealership network.
Mine too - on the Bishu Highway. Didn't think it would make it as mine arrived at the port in Emden while the ship was anchored off the coast. So only a few days at port this time. Porsche's default "guesstimate" on TYD is 3 weeks at the port, so shaved off 2+ weeks from the timeline. Now...
Back to the original question - you're not quoting the size of the calipers in your question - that's the size of the brake discs. The size of the calipers will change accordingly, but they are not defined by a specific size, other than the number of pistons (10 front/4 back for the Turbo S and...
It does not happen with "all Porsche." I've never had a service call with my dealership (across several Porsches and several years) where I did not get the summary of the work done.
I'm looking forward to getting our Taycan 4S in about a month (trading in a Panamera Turbo), but would not consider giving up my 911 for it. Both are great cars to drive, but "there is no substitute" for the 911.
I have light interiors in all three of my current Porsches and have black/beige leather coming on my Taycan. I probably spend about 5 minutes a month doing a very quick clean with leather cleaner on each and they all look fine - and wear jeans just about all the time. Go for what you are going...
