I not for a minute suggesting delayed vehicles expected in Jan will now be delivered in July. However, once we’re into a 2 month delay, which looks set to be the case, confidence does start to erode and you do start to fear the worst. That some people on the forum have seen their vehicles built...

I’ve just received a mixed update from my dealer. While I won’t go into specifics, there are hundreds of Taycans currently sat at Emden apparently, each with an export block on them, all of which are destined for the UK and currently missing the TPS components. These are starting to move, with...

Seems a lot of us are pinning our hopes on a sailing from Emden to Grimsby. I just wish I had confidence if there was a sailing that my vehicle would be on the vessel, rather than dockside still awaiting semiconductors. I’m planning to contact my dealership tomorrow to understand if the export...

Invisifilm.

With a degree of realism and common sense, plus experience of my previous Taycan, I would go ahead with PPF but only with what is called ‘extended front protection.’ That sees the front third of the car protected, plus those key areas known to be prone to stone chips, including around the...

I know from the dealer that mine is coming into the U.K. at Grimsby. Would expect yours is too given we share the same dealer.

Thanks for the information. While the latest screenshot of Porsche’s CRM that I’ve seen shows my vehicle provisionally leaving Emden tomorrow, I expect it’s not on this vessel, since Grimsby is logged as the port of entry. I also sadly expect it won’t be going anywhere other than moving around...

My guess would be yes, if, and it’s a big if, dealers have now been provided with the required protocols for installing the new update. Based on experience of software updates on my previous Taycan, these can be problematic and can take days, with pages upon pages of detailed instructions from...

Conscious that our vehicles were supposed to be shipped together to the same dealer and both seemingly remain at Emden, I thought I’d share my own understanding Gary. I’ve been informed that my own vehicle, while still awaiting semiconductors for the TPS, has been moved forward to a prime...

Have you received any further updates Gary to confirm that your Taycan sailed from Emden to Grimsby last week?

I feel your pain Gary. To say I’m similarly affected would be likely more accurate than you realise. Keep us posted if you hear anything further. One suspects our respective vehicles are currently sat in close proximity awaiting similar parts before sharing a transporter. One senses Porsche AG...

Any news on your car build and delivery? Was a parts availability issue at factory determined to be the cause of the delay Gary? I’m assuming you’ve sourced your car from Porsche Preston?

Fortunate enough to be ordering my second Taycan 4S. With just a few weeks to go before the spec has to be locked down, the usual panic has set in. Having spec’d my first Taycan in black metallic with silver / black Mission E wheels and found it impossible to keep clean despite PPF and Titan...

So, as promised, a further update. Received my Taycan back on Day 9. It was worth the wait. All of the reported software glitches pre the software update appear to have been resolved. The auto lift now remembers locations. The Bluetooth to my phone no longer drops. The Porsche e-sound now...

Day 8 - Still haven't received my MY21 4s back yet. All credit to the dealer - they called again with a progress update today - and they think progress has been made over the weekend and all my icons are now back active on the PCM! ? However, that I didn't receive a subsequent call to tall me...

So, I promised an update on the recall / update for my MY21 4S. In short, car went in Monday. Still haven’t got it back. ? Can’t fault the dealer for keeping me updated - big shout to them. Apparently, after installing the update, various different icons that should be accessible on the PCM...

With all due respect, I think you misinterpret the point I was making. Namely that a phased recall SU allows any issues to be identified with the SU before all vehicles are affected. An OTA SU will see more vehicles updated quickly and risks a problem not being identified before the majority of...

Not as yet, but I pledge to update the forum once I’ve received the vehicle back. In fairness, there are a number of connectivity gremlins that I mentioned in my earlier post also hopefully being addressed; I think both me and the dealer aren’t clear as to whether the SU will address these as...

Having received a letter last week and experienced some ‘connectivity’ issues since taking delivery of my MY2021 4S in Jan, mine has been at the dealership since Monday having been promptly booked in as a priority. In fairness to the dealership (Porsche Preston), and to give credit where it’s...

Is taking both keys and both tracker fobs really necessary? Has anyone else been required to do this? I’ve dropped my off today for the update and they only required one tracker fob and one key.
