    2026 MG 07 Another Chinese Taycan copy

    Agreed. You can get close though🤘

    Headlights Blown

    Definitely should have extended the warranty. It’s transferable to the new owner and would make for an easier sale.

    Porsche history of map updates for the Taycan?

    I’m in the UK. As well as automatic map updates I can still trigger preheating and cooling from the MyPorsche app without a Porsche Connect subscription. Maybe because my car is so old?

    Porsche history of map updates for the Taycan?

    I still get (almost weekly) Porsche map updates on my 2020 Taycan and haven’t had a Porsche Connect Subscription for 18 months.🤷‍♂️

    How much MORE does the current model year of your Taycan cost? That's SAVINGS! ;)

    Ok, I’ll play. I bought this 2020 9,000 mile Turbo S in 2023 for £89,000 so saved £82,474 ($110,000). Same car now costs £180,500 :oops:

    Porsche mulling Panamera and Taycan Merger

    This would be disappointing. I was attracted to the Taycan for its unique and novel architecture. Such a shame Porsche’s engineering efforts went largely unrewarded:confused:

    Insurance in UK

    Another vote for Admiral here. I have both my Taycan Turbo S and Nissan GT-R insured with them.

    Center rear light bar install - so cal

    Yes, PIWIS not essential. I detailed the light swap out procedure in this thread … https://www.taycanforum.com/forum/threads/diy-swapped-my-%E2%80%98standard%E2%80%99-rear-light-strip-for-glacier-ice-blue.18106/

    Octopus intelligent set up should I connect to car or charger for control

    I think you’re stuck with Octopus controlling your car as I don’t believe they can communicate with your Porsche Mobile Charger Connect EVSE. Myenergi Zappi, Ohme, Anderson and Hypervolt are supported though. You’ll also have to continue your Porsche Connect Services subscription for them to...

    Redshift vs MapEV

    It was dreamt up by Porsche’s department of useless gimmicks. The same department that brought you push to pass and fake gear shifts :mad:

    Is it safe to jack one corner of the Taycan CT for tire replacement?

    You should first put the car in “Jack Mode” via the PCM I believe. This will stop the air suspension trying to level the car while you’re working on it.

    New rims thoughts?

    I’d better stay quiet as my Rotiforms are an acquired taste:oops:

    Three months without Porsche Connect... and it's not so bad

    Unbelievably, remote charging from the Porsche app still works on my 2020 Taycan a year after I cancelled my Connect Services subscription 🤷‍♂️ There’s something to be said for “old tec” after all.

    Think about buying a Porsche taycan for a daily driver

    Why exactly? My 2020 Turbo S has been faultless 🤷‍♂️

    The Taycan is better looking than the 911

    That’s called Road Presence !

    New Video Adding Passenger Display Fairly easily

    In @PDAZ defence he wrote: ”Before installing anything, I took the unit physically to my Porsche Center and asked for an official technical assessment” He wasn’t asking the dealer to install it. We should be grateful for his warning!

    Swapping Turbo GT for Cayenne Turbo EV

    Did you get a good trade-in price for your Turbo GT?

    Redshift vs MapEV

    I‘ve been running a RedShift tuned ASG for over a year on my J1.1 Turbo S. I’ve been very happy with the power and torque increase it offers over stock and the removal of throttle filtering and the max speed limit. RedShift were one of the first tuners to offer such an upgrade. I’ve considered...

    Any solutions to remote start other than paying Porsche $399 a year....?

    It’s a 2020 year Turbo S so Connect Services subscription expired long ago :CWL:

    Any solutions to remote start other than paying Porsche $399 a year....?

    Yep (just checked), a year after cancelling my Porsche Connect Services I still get navigation map updates and remote climate control …
