Send us a picture of the type of Transponder you are struggling with - the one you see in the picture is issued in my case by https://thetollroads.com/
My sticker is the same as the post ^ @figure1a - and here is an interesting scoop - I got an additional transponder sticker that I used for the 2025 loaner I had while my 4S was getting recalls done (for 4-6 weeks they told me) - I dropped the loaner off last Friday and put the transponder in my...
This is somewhat reductive … but essentially any car’s estimated GOM range (unless tampered with for nefarious reasons) is a formula based on three basic things:-
1-The amount of energy in the battery,
2-the efficiency of extracting that energy,
3-the efficiency of the deployment of that...
@Spyerx .. When exactly did you drop the car?
Mine was dropped off at palm Springs on November 18th (I chose that location instead of Irvine even tho i live in CDM) - they are completing OPEN RECALLS: Apb6 / ara4 / arb0 / wpl8 / wre1 / wrj5 ... so far they have said I will get it back before...
Not confident it will help in your scenario - but when I set up the PWCC I skipped the software update (bc of charge power governing concerns) - and had the same issue, it would not handshake with the Taycan but was able to charge a Mercedes ... for me it was resolved by going into settings and...
So... to add to the intent of the thread - my 2020 4S with mission E 21s is in for a slew of recalls (they tell me 4-6 weeks)... and I have a 2025 RWD with the following spec.
Some observations....
1-Looks - not my favorite, prefer old style and def. not my favorite color combo...
Personally - I would take it in .... the risk for your home, family, insurance payout .... just not worth it in my view ...
BTW love San Clemente .... just moved to CDM this last month but San Clemente was on the list .....
I do not disagree with a lot of what is stated above - however I also think it is worthwhile to remember - an insurers business model are about three basic things :-
1 - aggregation and dilution of risk (which they can do across many markets/ sectors /models and makes of car/house/boat and...
As fate would have it …. Until this weekend I would not have been able to comment ….. but on Saturday a friend was starting off on a 180 mile journey ….. she had a little range anxiety in her 580 EQS …. We threw 15 minutes of charge at what she stated as a higher rate than she had ever seen from...
First off … I believe you are talking about the PWCC not the PMCC….. ignore this reply if that is not the case.
I just installed one if these PWCC units …. So far I would say this is an excellent charger. Not worth the money for sure ….. but significantly better quality than the Juice Box or...
Yes v easy ..... you will find a few posts on this - i changed mine out in 10 minutes ... against a white taycan and Black mission E's a much better aesthetic....
Some further pre and post Data.
My car is 2020 4S, 22 inch Mission E, 24k miles, Lead Feet - vast majority of charging v. abusive on High Speed EA Chargers throughput its life, Car kept mainly in HOT climes, including 3 summers in California desert often at 100-120 degrees Fahrenheit (not used...
I made the trip from Vancouver Canada through to Whitefish Montana down via Seattle in 2023,
I have to say the Idaho Montana stretch was scary barren of chargers …. Even when planning it with ABRP I could only make it with. a Tesla charge … in the end bc the cold meant low battery...
So just catching up on “last weeks most popular threads” ……. Sorry for resurrecting this …… but my light 2 cents….
SoCal resident….. I am still in the free charge period (tho not much longer) …. I have never really cared about the “free” part ….. I charge wherever I need to, tho if EA is...
