This is very helpful @kelliporsche and my quote from my dealer rip off department was quoted to put in context that your quote was great.
Now, reading the brochure, it says Climate Control is covered and then Contract does not say anything about cooling system valve except some hoses. I think...
Thank you for the correction. It would be really nice for @kelliporsche to review this case as well and let us all know if it would be covered or there is some kind of more expensive tier that is more inclusive of parts and repairs.
This makes no sense and defeats the purpose of the extended warranty that most of us are considering and recommending on this forum with a rep thinking from Houston selling it to us.
I was quoted around $8,500 by my dealer and I would be absolutely furious if that would not cover the situation...
Looks like you are new. This is good but not impressive by any means. J1.1 can do over 270kW paper rating, but as I pointed on other threads, there is absolutely zero benefit in blasting your car with that much current, boiling your battery to 130F+, risking your radiator fans, and not getting...
Amazing accomplishment. I used the coder and it was expensive as you say and a little scary as it takes many hours for install on your local PC and then applying all the changes. After seeing all this, there is no way I would attempt to do it myself and I am a programmer, as it appeared some of...
This is not a good situation as the average shopper is not educated and battery replacement looks bad, where in reality it is the best thing that could happen although the warranty is the same. I just do not see how you can sell it for any more than what is out there with so many examples for...
Then I do not see an issue with repainting the White to Ice Grey but I would only use Porche certified collision shop with confirmed good quality work of wheel repair/repaint.
The reason is that if I want another wheel, the process is to order it from Germany and it will come in as all Gloss...
I wonder if you could clarify the color to be exact.
Mission Es came in 2 standard colors: All Black or Black with Bright Silver, with Bright Silver not matching any Exterior Color, so the other option was to make the Bright Silver parts to be painted in Exterior Color. This way I ended up with...
^ All of this is expected but not the ugly exterior with useless embellishments and double down on more screen designs (3 varieties) at least for the US market. I can only assume this goes really well in China, so maybe the next screen is the entire interior surface of the roof to project...
Another great update from Tom Voelk @262X40 on his Taycan. I am not sure what his handle is but I wanted to suggest a couple of things and ask about how his car is optioned.
- Replace orange markers with clear
- Video shows charging at Tesla at only about 58kW, so wonder if he has the 150kW...
e-tron GT is a looker and has been, but the latest Audi S5 is the ugly of next level (chunky all red bar with a thick chrome stripe and skinny chrome pipes, you gotta be kidding me, the 90s are back!) and seem to copy the CLA EV. You might be right, China dictates the exterior design. Not sure...
Makes sense. Sedans are loved in Europe. I guess as long as it is cheap then the ugly does not matter.
I was looking for a sedan in the US and you have to know what you are doing, as all now is small displacement turbos, that are unreliable with CVTs, and then top that with hybrid only choices...
I am interested in opinions of current or previous MB owners, who is this ugly and slow thing for. I thought it was pretty obvious that no one wants EV sedans, but here you go, and do not get me started on the interior design. The front literally tells you without words, I am just very ugly and...
Let's keep in mind that we are against not only 8 years but 100k mile limit for the battery warranty. So far, there is nothing official for US at least what happens after. I am hoping some options will start appearing since 2020s will be swept by the 8 year wave with the first examples produced...
There were some reports of that if only front brake hose campaign was done. Mine was that and then another campaign that required full brake flush and then recalibration of the brakes, at which time I told the dealer to reset my brake fluid interval to 2 years from that point. I watched the...
Should be no difference, but it is more convenient to have it on the wheel, as in my use case, I need it asap if I am in a tight area or parking area to start seeing the ground markers.
@prj
2024 for example has an Air Quality system replacing the Ionzier with a view of air quality management, that even my 2023 does not have, so that is the kind of incremental stuff that I am referring to.
2025 Base performance reference was made by me due to -30 kW in PB+ with LC, but...
