    Two year service

    Just got mine done last month in Northern Cal and it was just shy of $1000. Love my car...but yes this is a totally Porsche tax rip off.

    My Porsche app

    Is my Porsche app down or is it just me? My app says "updated" but doesn't match the state of the car. I tried uninstalling the app and logging back in.

    Do NOT crack your panoramic glass!

    Sorry to hear about this Derek. You've been a staple of this forum and I've appreciated your perspective.

    Taycan Dead After Vacation

    I like to the keep the right instrument cluster with the information panel that shows high voltage battery percent, battery temp, and 12 volt battery (which usually reads 13.5V). I would think that if one's 12V starts to die it would be noted in this display right? Or no? Also, it would be...

    Porsche Scheduled Maintenance Plan

    For reference here's the maintenance tables from the manual. A few extra things to check at 40K and the only extra I see at 60K is to replace brake pads which again I question will be actually necessary in an EV.

    Porsche Scheduled Maintenance Plan

    Agreed with the caveat that it would have to be a very trust worthy independent that has experience with a Taycan.

    Porsche Scheduled Maintenance Plan

    I also question if brake pads will even be necessary at 60K given regenerative braking and relatively nonaggressive driving.

    Porsche Scheduled Maintenance Plan

    This is a question for the Taycan forum owners who plan to keep their vehicle beyond 2-4 years. Has anyone considered or purchased a Porsche Scheduled Maintenance Plan? I just took my 2022 for 2 year service and everything was fine unless you consider the $970 cost not fine. To cover the 40K...

    4-year service

    That sounds like the same thing as the 2 year service which is usually a few hundred or am I missing something? I'd call around to other Porsche dealers to get competing quotes.

    Taycan RWD

    2022 RWD very happy owner here. I didn't buy the car to drag race. I spent six figures to own a spectacularly built luxury EV that drives better than any vehicle I've owned and that includes acceleration when merging on to a highway or changing lanes. For those who want to splurge more i say...

    Depreciation, I lost money, I’m crying

    When I get home from vacation I adjust the temp controls of the house, load up the laundry, and check my garage to see my baby again who I've missed oh so much. True story.

    Tires and a frugal RWD owner

    Didn't even occur to me that range mode would wear out tires faster. Great insight. I used range mode a lot my first 15K but stopped in the past few months when I realized it's not necessary for my driving routine/miles.

    Tires and a frugal RWD owner

    Good tip on checking the inner shoulder of the rears. I checked this am and it's similar wear/measurement.

    Tires and a frugal RWD owner

    19K glorious miles in 2 years but my rear tires seem to be close to replacement status as opposed to my front which seem fine. I currently have Pirelli Cinturato P7 20s which came with the car and my grip has been EXCELLENT in fair and rainy conditions (never go to the snow). 2 questions: 1)...

    Ongoing PCM issues

    Had similar symptoms with my 22 Taycan after internal alarm sensor was replaced. As you alluded to the battery disconnect fixed it but I had the dealer do it.

    No Porsche Extended Warranty Available?

    Thanks for this. Taking my 22 RWD in for 2 year service next month and I plan to inquire about this. It's my daily, I put about 10k/year on it, I'll likely keep it for 7-10 years, and I love my baby.
