I have not heard of that issue here. TPMS batteries don't all die at the same time and then come back to life. I doubt that's the issue. It is likely to be a fault in the RF receiver module or further upstream in the processing. Because it is intermittent, forgive the dealer for not fixing it...
I'm not exactly sure why VW group is talking exclusively to PCMag, but the author of that original link updated with "Although the brand missed its original deadline of June 2025 to get access, an announcement is "coming soon," a company spokesperson tells us." Whatever that means. Come to...
In the US, if the car is under warranty and for vehicles made before 11/2021, if the owner complains of buzzing/humming coming from a fan, the dealer will perform the TSB to replace the fans and shrouds. For me, my fan was already seized and so of course not buzzing. The dealer insisted that I...
Can we all please agree never again to use the phrase "8-year warranty wall of death" :)
But seriously, isn't this a safety recall to prevent battery fires? Would not the replacements then continue after 8 years - pretty much forever for vehicles with J1.1 battery modules that are still on the...
It will work, don't worry. There must be one setting blocking it somewhere.
Are Cellular, WiFi, and Bluetooth enabled on the phone?
So were you able to pair your phone with the car on Bluetooth at least?
Does the phone show up in the devices list?
I'm sure you know, but the way CarPlay works is...
The intern that did mine broke a bolt on one radiator, so it too had to be replaced. They also scraped the bumper pretty badly on the passenger side, and I didn't notice it until too late to prove - days later. Daily driver, garaged, but the worst scrape on my car was while in was in the Porsche...
Nope, that itself would not cause this. It’s going to be even worse if you replace these yourself because i believe the factory diagnostic computer is needed to properly bleed the brakes after. What you are experiencing will be improved after the dealer replaces the hoses and bleeds. There might...
Hi Cristian, thanks so much for all this excellent information and the video.
First of all, as a EE, when you said "full short" I understood that to mean what we call "dead short," which is zero ohms. You were showing 10Kohms, which would result in about 50mA of current. Not saying that's good...
The 19's feel nimble at low speeds and get the best range. The Forgelines look good and have custom options, but they will set you back around $8000 for the set. An alternative is to get OEM used Porsche 20" rims on EBay, or for much less, you can get close to the Forgeline look by blacking out...
I haven’t taken the plunge, but there are a number of threads reporting some functionality on the app without the subscription (precondition?). If you have charging at home you might set the profile & timer to get to 80% each morning. I don’t know, but I wonder if you used the mobile charger...
