    What makes the difference between Range Mode limiting to 60mph or 90mph?

    I didn’t know you could set it! Where on the PCM did you do that? Doesn’t explain the variation of course but would prevent it in future.

    What makes the difference between Range Mode limiting to 60mph or 90mph?

    Hey. Took a road trip in the last few days. On the way there, the car was happy to limit to 90 when I selected Range Mode - even on A roads not motorways, and even when I selected it while driving below 60 mph. On the way back on the motorway - even when cruising along at 70mph - the car would...

    Noise like a brake pad rubbing - dealer tells me it's 'normal'?

    Don't apologise for the TLDR, all input appreciated and we're all busy! Funny how they use 'normal' as I did, seems dealers the world over are the same. But that sounds like tyre noise on slippery car park tarmac to me. This is specifically that little squeal a rubbing pad would make on normal...

    Noise like a brake pad rubbing - dealer tells me it's 'normal'?

    Hey. I've had my Taycan 6 months, and since summer arrived (such as it is in the UK) I can hear a high pitch noise - just like a brake rubbing - with the window down, when setting off. It's when I touch the brake, but also when trundling along at low speed. It sounds just like when you hear an...

    Power off button - how do you use it?

    I've stopped pressing park actually, the power button puts it into park anyway (and if there's and incline I've likely engaged Hold with the brake).

    Charging at Home error

    As others have said, it's because the car is expecting charge but the charger is essentially 'off' until the timer. You can either set the timer on the PCM/app instead, or if you don't want the charger live when you're not home and it's timer means it stays locked until then (like our Andersen...

    “Electric” Logo on doors

    I liked the idea - and there were colours I thought they worked on - but not on our mamba green. Looking back I think I was more (over) excited about going electric than I was in love with the 'electric' logo itself.

    Hidden PCM Options Using Search

    Thanks. I have to pootle through the town when I leave home so an option to have regen on by default and then I manually to sport when I get to the open road would be a nice option, but I get why they don’t do it.

    TIL how to close the rear hatch from the center console screen

    Is there any way to close it from the key do you know?

    Due to lock next week.. keen to get the opinions of the experts !

    Everyone raves about the rear axle steering, but honestly I haven’t felt I’m missing out by not having optioned it. The cars handles amazingly without it, and the turning circle at low speed is frankly astonishing with just Power Steering Plus. Mamba Green is utterly beautiful in real life. I...

    Setting up Profiles, Timers, optimised charging, and 85%.

    Ah, there’s the answer. Thank you.

    Setting up Profiles, Timers, optimised charging, and 85%.

    Thanks! You know I started this thread with the sole purpose of trying to find out how to tell it my electricity tariff, and somehow all of that confusion poured out of me.

    Setting up Profiles, Timers, optimised charging, and 85%.

    Ah, clever work-around - thanks! The profiles really should have a 'maximum charge' option, especially as Porsche recommend limiting it.

    Setting up Profiles, Timers, optimised charging, and 85%.

    Hey, Trying to figure out whether to use a timer or a profile to get the car to charge to 85% overnight. In Profiles the optimised charging option says 'charging of your vehicle is controlled intelligently and... the prices you have entered for your electricity tariff... are taken into...

    Glut of used Taycan - Uk

    Yeah, as others said and according to my dealer (collected today!) there's been a massive delivery of allocation of new cars for the UK for year end, and they've all dropped at once - so loads of trade ins. The wait for new is still 18 months, so the trade ins will sell through fast enough.

    So close it's killing me...

    Right then. Let's do this.

    What are your thoughts on the Porsche security location tracker?

    Oh wow, okay. My dealer hasn’t mentioned that. I’ll have a conversation, thanks.
