I usually charge only with "slow DC charging" option checked and I also think that it is slower than before. It was able to hit 190kw at low SOC without any preconditioning. Now it hits only 150kw. EDIT: I am just watching Bjorn's slow charging test www.youtube.com/watch?v=4J-XEFSps4k and...

There is a relatively fresh 12V battery sensor recall WSS6. I had that icon as well when my 12V died after two weeks stay while connected to AC charger in garage. After that car was always showing voltage 14.2V which meant that it was being charged. Recall resolved it and now it behaves...

Today I got a call from dealer in the Czech Republic. They do not see WTG1 update at all and know nothing about it. I guess we are a third world country for a Porsche... (we actually are in the terms of sales for them 😁)

So, is it confirmed that everybody gets this update or even better one over OTA eventually in foreseeable future?

Yes I do sometimes. It helps to open and close that window or just update status thru swipe in the app and it dissapears.

12V battery should be fine then. Lifepo cells survive below under voltage protection which is below 10.0V for years.

Is 12V battery in your Taycan ok now after staying in that discharded state for so long?

Did the charger really die permanently? I find it very unlikely.

Same happened to me. Whole winter on trickle charger, then 2 weeks on AC charger without trickle and then dead. Wake up BMS with 12V supply or jump starter. If your Noco has something like supply/wakeup/bypass/force mode then use it. The moment you use it, car wakes up which takes energy, try...

Thank you, I will go to the dealer to get it done.

Did you do something special or it sorted it out on its own?

Hello, how have you sorted it out? I have a same problem. It always shows 14V+.

It is just 12V a lifepo battery with BMS as any other. Porsche has not resolved issues with battery drain so I would not rely on any of their advice. Put it on any LFP trickle smart charger in case of longer stay than few days. My 12V died twice - first it died completely after winter stay with...

It really should be free in an expensive car like a Taycan for a lifetime. Other brands charge about 100-150 USD/year and some has basic functionality (charging, AC, heating) for free so Porsche should at least match it. But they know that their customers have money so they milk without offering...

This is what I hope for as well. Would love to buy 120kWh aftermarket battery for 20k USD in 10 years. In terms of effeciency and power there is not much more significants improvements you can do in EVs anyways. Taycan 3 will be pretty much same as this one except software, self driving and...

EVs. Burning fossil fuels and breathing fumes from it is nonsense. Hopefully VW group (Porsche included) can get their s*** together and offer reliable and affordable cars. Thats why I was so eager to see chinese EVs as competition in Europe because germans got too comfortable offering same...

1) Yes, you need LFP compatible trickle charger. Almost every other charger now offers this. 2) It should charge even when car is off. HV battery does not take any hit, car is good in that respect. The problem is that 12V is not being charged properly as it should and there are still bugs that...

No, most unreliable piece of tech I have witnessed in my life. I have it for 15 months and it has spent 5 months in the shop. Right now it is in the shop again because of AC onboard charger which again made whole car immobile. It is a first generation EV and it shows. And it also shows, that VW...

You can buy new Taycan RWD with aerowheels. There are videos on youtube where hypermiling this thing does 450 miles with consumption around 21kwh/mile. But I understand your point from US perspective where chargers might be more sparse. I am from Czech Republic, Europe. As a country we are the...
