Mate what a saga. Must be incredibly frustrating. Hope you are close to getting your car back.

I have 22kw option in my GTS, so three phase facilitates faster charging. You always have the option of going without this and doing longer single phase charges. However there will be times that you forget to charge, or your plans change, and faster charging at home will be the most convenient...

Go for it. Effective 3-phase home charging is really important. Many have installed the Porsche charger, I went with the Tesla Wall Connector.

Hi @Moman. This happens reasonably frequently with my car. Its very frustrating. Stopping the car for a period of time, seems to be the only way to reset it. Once I left my drivers door ajar overnight and upon starting the car the screen flashed a message saying the screen would switch on...

And relatively inexpensive to buy...

Tesla Wall Connector - 3 phase - great standalone charger and excellent integration with my solar and Tesla Powerwalls.

Great to see. Maybe the team at Porsche do read the taycanforum.

Thanks @DerekS for the correction. I've updated the post. For those who did not know the difference like me, the following courtesy of Copilot: Regenerative braking and recuperative braking are two terms that are often used interchangeably, but they are not the same thing. Regenerative...

@Taycan Keith thanks some very useful insights. I also appreciate the King's English. Enjoying the dialogue with you, its helped centre and optimise some of my thinking and added important colour ;)

A few weeks ago I had a very low speed, minor collision, necessitating a few weeks off the road for body shop repairs. I hit the brakes pretty hard but the Taycan is a very heavy car and no matter what the speed, it takes a bit of stopping. I 'just' hit the car in front of me and the tow bar...

Congratulations on your new Taycan! The charger that comes with the Taycan is housed in a very large cumbersome metal cabinet. While you can elect not to install the cabinet, and just have the charger connect from socket to car, it is a bit cumbersome. As I have solar and Tesla Powerwall...

The 18 way are very comfortable and supportive. Design and functionality are aligned to the Porsche purpose and experience. I find the base of the 18 way quite neat (I’m average height and build) so when I first sit in them I just need to adjust myself so that each bum cheek is in an...

I too have recently moved from a BMW to GTS. The BMW tech was better (2019) than the GTS (2023). I miss the auto lock, I miss the soft close doors and I really miss the volume reduction at start up (that is drive home from work and into garage with music on high volume, but when I go to work...

Just coming up to the six month mark with my Taycan. No issues which have required a dealer visit. A post Webasto issue car, albeit a one month delay at the end of production for a new heater unit. But the interface and connectivity continues to be a bit glitchy, hopefully nothing that a good...

About six weeks ago my car was involved in an altercation with a tow bar. It was my fault but I was a little bit miffed when the driver of the other car who I had been following for a little while, stopped completely unexpectedly, to put their seat belt on! I learned a few things from this...

Great write up @f1eng

One of the items I obsess about, is being able to have my car ventilation setting on permanent re-cirulate mode, as I hate vehicle odor. So when I saw the ioniser option it was an automatic tick. Porsche believe automatic ventilation mode is optimal and sometimes I forget to select...

Thanks for the tip. Yes on the very high settings.

Yes I'm with a Burmester too.

WIth a few months usage of Spotify, I wanted to offer a couple of observations and seek feedback on like or different Spotify experiences. Firstly, registering my vehicle for Spotify usage through MyPorsche was easy and it worked first time. There are two ways to connect to Spotify, one...
