    I lost all power in the outside lane

    I have no proof of this, but my stomach tells me that there may be a connection as everything worked well before the update. I guess I have to see in the next few weeks and months if this event happens again. If not, I think we may suspect that there was an error in the software or...

    I lost all power in the outside lane

    Thank you very much, I appreciate that! I’m sure this will work out one way or the other, and that you hopefully can soon to put a new deposit down on a Taycan ✌?

    I lost all power in the outside lane

    I just got back from the Porsche workshop. They have after consulting headquarters, been synchronizing both electric engines. That is the instructions they received, and told me to call in if the problem occurs again. Regarding changing the main battery I earlier was told to be the solution for...

    I lost all power in the outside lane

    I’m thinking the same, and we’re postponing our road trip this summer. This is a really a drawback. An unwanted stop on the Autobahn can be fatal. So can a stop in a tunnel, or road/turns with reduced visibility. It all comes down to safety which is vital, and a obviously minimum requirement...

    I lost all power in the outside lane

    My dealer informed that they have no knowledge of any patch to fix this problem (which in my case occurred after the new software install March 26th). My two incidents as of yet was April 27th and May 15th. Further Porsche said that the solution is to replace the whole main battery (the large...

    I lost all power in the outside lane

    As of yet, the solution to the problem is to restart by turning the vehicle off and then back on. After that the system and "engine failure" seems to function normal. Then I can select drive and take off :captain:

    I lost all power in the outside lane

    Thank you very much! That vital information must have passed my knowledge. It suddenly looks a little brighter for me then??

    I lost all power in the outside lane

    My Taycan Turbo S stopped again on the highway yesterday, May 15th. The last time was April 27th. This is not good :facepalm: I might not be so lucky next time, and worrying about an accident! On both incidents, I had the latest software installed. I've got an appointment with my Porsche Center...

    Locked myself in on the back seat

    On the bright side: Here in Europe we can kidnap whoever we want without risk the victim escape, and save the cost of duct tape (like you need for precaution over in the US). With sport sound turned on, no one will even hear screaming from the trunk :bandit:

    Gap center console, acceptable?

    By the mirror image from the center screen, you look very disappointed :oops: Fully understandable, and I would been too. It´s not picky at all to care about attention to details. I would definitely have that fixed ? I always confront my problems with my service center in a calm and polite way...

    Just got my Taycan :)

    You chose correctly, and look as happy as a dude can be! Congratulation from from another bat ? here overseas in the cold north, and welcome you to the black Taycan club :cool:

    Sunglasses holder in place of grab handle

    I wonder why Porsche couldn’t make a sunglass holder over the mirror area, like the one I had in my MB S-class. It was very convenient, and I do miss that little box. Now in my Taycan I must store my glasses in the department behind the lower screen. That’s okay too, but still . . .

    I lost all power in the outside lane

    Just curious, not that it probably matters, but still. . . only to check if there is any comparison: Which mode did you all drive in when these incidents occurred? I myself had the car in Sport mode at the time. Can't get this out of my head and worry about if or when this will happen again. ...

    TopGear Reviews the Taycan Cross Turismo

    Very cool video indeed! I became a little uneasy when I saw all that that mud built up along his semi off road trip. Very controversial, as I always wash and polish my TS after a little dust on the surface, a bird dropping on the paint, or when my neighbour spits on the car regularly...

    I lost all power in the outside lane

    I believe you are correct in your suspicions, and do agree with your points. Every safety issue is a serious matter, even if its vehicle stopping or missing reverse cam, and they all should be handled accordingly. Porsche can be held reliable if an accident occurs when the system lags or fail...

    I lost all power in the outside lane

    I really hope you’re right on both points! German craftsmanship and engineering are usually high standard, which Porsche also is known for. On Taycanforum I get a lot of vital information, almost instantly, which make me more confident that Porsche feels obligated to fix different issue best...

    I lost all power in the outside lane

    I definitely agree with you! With “no fix” I meant hopefully not mechanically. I really don’t like my new car 800V battery to be refitted, cause this often results in more issues or faults. So my fingers are rather crossed for another software update to delete this the virus . . . like a Pfizer...

    I lost all power in the outside lane

    This incident happened with my TS also, today actaully. I was passing another car in the left lane, when this red warning light (discussed in this post) came up: "Motor control error, stop vehicle in a safe place". I then lost motor power, and blinked to change lane trying to find a emergency...

    Daily funny: Australian Government Future Fuels Strategy video

    At 1:13: "The Norwegian EV incentives." When people ask me if bought an EV to save the environment, rather not the incentives like: no 25% VAT, no Hp/Kw/ fee, no weight fee, driving in taxi/bus-lane, cheaper ferry, cheaper toll road, no road tax and lastly free or cheaper parking? I always...

    Satin Taycan Turbo S w/ forged 22" C113 wheels

    Very nice . . . and I especially like "Forged (and made in) in Germany" which is an extra plus❕
