    Dashcam options

    Thank you. Couple of questions, how do you replay video, is it on your phone or do you remove the SD card (or both)? Do you power it from the 12V battery and if so, any concerns about draining the battery? Pics would be helpful :)

    Dashcam options

    I've been reviewing a few threads on dashcam options and note that a few people have gone for the Fitcamx, some have gone for a Blackvue and I think I have seen the Thinkcam as well. I contacted a local electrical shop and they recommended the Thinkcam Q1000 or Momento M8. Hsa anyone installed...

    Route plan from Sacramento to Fremont via Dublin

    Thanks all. This is exactly the local advice I was hoping for! I built a list of around 10-15 possible locations from the EA website that are along my route. Probably only need one charge but would like to maximize the efficiency of my stop, of course.

    Route plan from Sacramento to Fremont via Dublin

    Looking for recommendations on the best EA stations on this route or, alternatively, paid fast charging stations. Which have you found to be the most reliable and available? thank you

    Help - car completely dead - can't get into neutral for towing

    The car is under three years old, I didn't pay a dime. I also got the brake recall done which took care of a brake flush which was due on the car at no cost. When I purchased the car, I also bought the extended 10 year warranty. They did not tell me how much the cost would be, it said N/C on...

    Help - car completely dead - can't get into neutral for towing

    I eventually got the car back after 5 weeks. The AC drip pan leaked onto a central control unit and fried it. Most of the time spent was because they could not access the car and had to keep going back and forward to Porsche to get approvals. This even delayed the control unit as that needs...

    MY25 has replaced the regen button with a music forward button.

    Apple Watch charger interfering with CarPlay

    Yes that’s a good idea. Interestingly, when I plugged in the charging cable (Apple original for what it’s worth), it came up as a device in the PCM (without even plugging the watch in for charging). Something like Apple Watch magnetic.

    Apple Watch charger interfering with CarPlay

    I was having intermittent issues connecting to CarPlay on my MY22 4S. Then I was test driving a Macan EV and could not connect to CarPlay at all. Finally I have a loaner MY25 base Taycan. CarPlay was working great. Then I plugged my Apple Watch in for charging and immediately I started...

    Taycan Sedan vs CT (4S)

    I was actually quite surprised at the difference a few mm makes to get in and out of the car.

    Taycan Sedan vs CT (4S)

    Long story but I am looking at most likely a new MY25 Sedan or CT 4S to replace my existing MY22 Sedan 4S . I tested a CT and I really liked the ease of entry exit vs the sedan but otherwise the drive was a bit different to what I expected. It does drive a bit more like an SUV - comes across...

    Help - car completely dead - can't get into neutral for towing

    Well no good update after one full week in the dealer. They could not access the car and after communicating with Porsche, they have been told to run a battery test as the next step. They cannot begin that until Tuesday/Wednesday and it will take a couple of days to remove the battery and run...

    Help - car completely dead - can't get into neutral for towing

    yes but is it only stopping the rear wheels? Mine does that too when it rolls back. My car was completely off but probably in P

    Help - car completely dead - can't get into neutral for towing

    The car did go into Park when I powered off even though there was a warning that it may not be able to Park (& in fact at some point was rolling unless i activated the foot brake). That is pretty much the last thing I remember seeing was the P symbol illuminated. He only had to put skates on...

    Help - car completely dead - can't get into neutral for towing

    They are thinking one of the possible culprits could be the control unit. The Taycan tech couldn’t communicate with the car at all as the pcm and dash will not turn on at all. So they are going to take the dashboard apart next week and access it that way - apparently.

    Help - car completely dead - can't get into neutral for towing

    Latest update, they could not get access to the car to figure out what is wrong. They are going to have take out the dash and bypass some things, so it will be a few days just for diagnosis. Will update when I know more

    Help - car completely dead - can't get into neutral for towing

    Different to ICE for sure but in this case, It just means the wheels can spin freely

    Help - car completely dead - can't get into neutral for towing

    No, I think they use that if they can get the car into neutral. He used a couple of his own hooks at the front. I’m not sure exactly what he did as it was dark and he got under the car but he had a couple of loops around the wheels as well.

    Help - car completely dead - can't get into neutral for towing

    Have a great relationship with the sales guy and a couple of service guys over there. They just opened a new spot that is a little farther away but the people are pretty good. Will keep this thread updated, fingers crossed and prayers being said!

    Help - car completely dead - can't get into neutral for towing

    I went to a store then stopped at a friend’s house close to mine to drop something off. Zero indication of any issues. The only problem recently has been very irritating CarPlay connectivity (both wired and wireless). The car also asked me to get a brake flush done and it was booked in at first...
