    Taycan CT4S | 12000 Km update

    I thought I would share updates on my Taycan journey so far. I continue to really really like this car. Yes it is the best car I have owned. It has some things I'm not a lover of but these are a long way from being deal breakers. The car The car handles like a Porsche should. It's amazing...

    Porsche Developing 800 mile Solid State Battery

    Great news but my experience in Ireland right now suggests infrastructure is the challenge. While improving here, it feels like we are developing the MVP of facilities (the song and dance being made about a 150kw Charge facilities is now boring!). We should be (1) developing more the back end...

    My Porsche App connectivity

    I have had issues over the past week with the App showing the car in privacy mode when it's not. It was resolved by moving close to the car/getting in. I notice this evening though that the issue has resolved!

    Car disabled by Porsche tracking service

    Thanks for the reply. I've seen my app. quote privacy mode on numerous occasions over the last few months. It normally happens when i'm in an area of poor LTE signal and normally resolves after a few hours.

    Trunk won't open ..i'm on a role today!

    Right now i am unable to open the rear trunk lid on my TCT4S. I've tried with the button on the car and the two keys but no good. The frunk and doors all open as expected. I've locked the car overnight and come back but that did not resolve the issue either. I've checked settings in the PCM and...

    Car disabled by Porsche tracking service

    Thanks for the reply W1NGE. I suspect the same. When I spoke to them last night they said they had over 20 alerts yesterday from my car. That seems strange as it was parked at work most of the day with me looking at it! According to Porsche Dublin there has been problems recently with the...

    Car disabled by Porsche tracking service

    I've just spoken to Porsche Centre Dublin and they have said they've seen a number of issues with the PVTS on a numberer of models over the past few weeks. The issue appears to be related to the service and not the car. I'm booked in for a check up on 26 April. Lets hope it's a service issue...

    As a person who received my new CT4S in January I would recommend: 1. Enjoying the car. It’s amazing. Don’t get too hung up on checking consumption or range over the first 6-8 weeks. just enjoy it! 2. Snack on reading the owners manual. The best learning is driving the car and playing around...

    Taycan CT4S | First 5000Km

    That’s good to know about the leather. Thank you. Thankfully no heater issues. In fact, I find the heating of seats, steering wheel and windscreen to be excellent. Much faster than my Audi Q7 which I thought was good Currently praying my comments above don’t jinx the luxury of heating for me??

    Unknown object

    This is the Porsche tracker fob. You would have paid for this at new car collection time (circa €310 in Ireland) I would have expected the Porsche Centre would have talked through this, it’s features and how it worked on receipt of the car. I’d recommend contacting the dealer to confirm it is...

    Fastest charge you've had?

    From what I’ve experienced so far there is multiple factors like SOC, ambient temp, battery temp, EVSE and PCM throttling influencing this answer. In simple terms though I’ve experienced 240-250kw from Ionity units in Ireland when the SOC is low (<15%), the battery is preconditioned and there...

    Sport Sound Owners - Do You Use It Most of the Time?

    I have it off more times than on. It’s a cool geeky kinda feature but the novelty wears off. I’ll tend to switch on more in a built up area/city.

    Dashcam recommendations

    I've read numerous threads on this forum about dash cams. In summary it appears: The Porsche Dash cam is expensive, bulky and not very well integrated but likely to be an acceptable accessory if fitted by a Porsche dealer should any electric gremlins develop in the future. Dash cams from FitCam...
