  1. Taycan Turbo S CPO - Track Experience Car? Advice Needed.

    Another clue here is that the car was serviced by Circle Porsche in Long Beach back in September, which is just 10 miles from the Porsche Experience Center in L.A. I'm fairly certain this was a PEC based on all the evidence here.
  2. Porsche Navigation vs ABRP vs Apple Maps EV Routing -- Pros and Cons

    Per your request, I took a couple of screenshots for you. Sorry for the quality. I was facing the sun. By default, Apple Maps shows you a 3D view like the first image. When you approach an intersection, it gradually moves to an overhead view by the time you reach the intersection... see second...
  3. Recuperative Braking- how much range does it add?

    Any amount of recuperation is worthwhile, and not just for range purposes. It also reduces wear on your brakes and makes them last longer. There is no reason not to use regenerative braking. To me the only real choice is whether you prefer to use it only when actively braking or also when you...
  4. Setting up 80-100A home charging: Porsche charger vs Lucid Home Charger

    I have not seen your second question answered anywhere, so thought I would weigh in even through this thread is aging. I bought the Porsche Wall Charger (80 amp) with the upgraded 19.2kW on-board charger on my car, so I can take full advantage of the 80 amp rate. As others have noted, the 80...
  5. Porsche Navigation vs ABRP vs Apple Maps EV Routing -- Pros and Cons

    Since others in this thread complained about the accuracy of Apple Maps state-of-charge data, I wanted to test it out for myself. I did some testing over the weekend and my experience so far is quite positive, though I haven't needed to travel far enough to actually need to charge. In other...
  6. Porsche Navigation vs ABRP vs Apple Maps EV Routing -- Pros and Cons

    I'd be interested in the outcome at EVGo to see if there is a difference. Humble request from me to please report back on your experience with EVGo. I've mostly charged at EA simply because it's free, but I charged once at EVGo. It was a great experience. I would even consider paying to avoid EA...
  7. Porsche Navigation vs ABRP vs Apple Maps EV Routing -- Pros and Cons

    Not a tech company... they make great cars, though. To answer your question, the search in the Porsche app does NOT included non-EA chargers (or at least it won't show any whenever I've tried it), but the nav will include non-EA chargers. So it is clearly not the same search function. I would...
  8. Porsche Navigation vs ABRP vs Apple Maps EV Routing -- Pros and Cons

    Personally, I like being able to use other apps, which are arguably better at what they do, such as Spotify, Google Maps, and ABRP vs being stuck with whatever the car comes with. In my case, the in-car systems screw up often. I once entered an address for a commercial location and ended up in a...
  9. Porsche Navigation vs ABRP vs Apple Maps EV Routing -- Pros and Cons

    I received a notice from Porsche North America this morning that Apple Maps EV Routing is now supported. I thought it might be useful to summarize the pros and cons with the three live-data routing options available in the N.A. market for those in the Apple ecosystem. I'd be interested to hear...
  10. L2 EVSE choices for NA

    My Taycan has the 22.2 kW AC charger (only good for 19.2 in North America), so I opted for the Porsche Wall Charger for my EVSE. It delivers 19.2 kW to the car on a 100 amp circuit (240 volts at 80 amps). Complete overkill, but charges the car most nights in less than 2 hours. If you want the...
  11. Error: Charging port impaired

    I had this error yesterday, first in the AC-only port on the driver's side. I have the power charging port covers. The door would not open and the error message posted whenever the car was powered on. I tried powering off, locking the car, and letting it sit 30 minutes as other have done, but...
  12. Video: The 100,000th Taycan Has Just Been Made

  13. Announcement: Porsche’s new on-board and wall chargers nearly halve Taycan home charge times

    And for those that now own the "nerfed" 4.8kW charger (post software update) in North America, this represents a 140% improvement. "Nerfed" equipment = 20 amps x 240 volts = 4.8 kW vs. your suggestion = 48 amps x 240 volts = 11.52 kW That would cut charging times by ~58%
  14. Bluetooth Low Energy OBD Dongle for A Better Route Planner (SOLUTION FOUND)

    I own both the Vgate vLinker MC+ and the OBDLinkCX. I have never been able to get the Vgate to work with ABRP and Taycan, even though I can get other apps working with it. The OBDLinkCX (model CX101) works for me, so you might try that one. Perhaps the Vgate products won't work with the Taycan...
  15. Bluetooth Low Energy OBD Dongle for A Better Route Planner (SOLUTION FOUND)

    For those interested in a dongle on iOS, I just got the ODBLink CX to work with iOS as well. As @Xsquid indicates, you need to make sure that in Settings > Security > Bluetooth the slider for ABRP is on. I have not been successful connecting ABRP to the vLinker MC+, which would have been...
  16. Bluetooth Low Energy OBD Dongle for A Better Route Planner (SOLUTION FOUND)

    Anyone successful with an iOS setup yet? I bought the vLinker MC+, but the iOS app doesn’t pick it up.
  17. Bluetooth Low Energy OBD Dongle for A Better Route Planner (SOLUTION FOUND)

    Thank you... if that fails at least I know the Maclean MCE 200 will work. Will try the ABRP forum next and then decide if I should order the Maclean.
  18. Bluetooth Low Energy OBD Dongle for A Better Route Planner (SOLUTION FOUND)

    Are you using Android or iOS? I am using iOS with the Vgate vLinker MC+ (which is on that list) and the device won't even show up in ABRP. I can link to the device with other diagnotics apps, so part of my issue seems specific to ABRP.
  19. Mission E Wheels: What are the disadvantages?

    I saw the numbers somewhere a long time ago... it's more like 1-2% range loss against the same size wheels UNLESS you are comparing against 19 inch wheels. The bigger impact is the wheel size, not Mission-E specific. Even the 21 inch carbon fibre aeroblade wheels are less efficient than the...
  20. Bluetooth Low Energy OBD Dongle for A Better Route Planner (SOLUTION FOUND)

    Thank you... needs to be BLE dongle though. Unfortunately, the brand mentioned in that thread produces models that are all USB or WiFi connected diagnostic tools. They cannot work with ABRP (which requires BLE).
