It always depends on the Tesla site layout. Many of the ones that I have used here are designed with the cabinet sideway and then there it is a breeze to hook up. But if the stand on the curb, you need to navigate a bit to close in my experience. ’’These layouts are excellent. This normal...

Unless it is implemented like here in Europe. We can not use PnC as such, but need the Tesla app to start and pay for the charge. No complications at all and much faster than the set up time on Ionity. Interesting to see now how all the ones that did not see the value of the 150 kW option are...

I think you are correct. Most warranty replacements will come with the warranty to match the original time frame. The fact that one has a completely new part is of course a lot of comfort.

When you read facts like that, you have to ask yourself if Porsche really is a serious player in the EV market. I doubt even the most imaginative accountant could not present reasons for such a price hike. At a time when material prices like components and mainly batteries are falling like a stone.

At least your car can be monitored for data retrieval. My car needs to visit the dealer every 60 days for a couple of hours diagnostics, until the monitoring SW is completed and installed! With driving to and from plus waiting for the car, that is nearly a whole day gone! ??

Not fully aligned with my letter though! I have the recall letter and the car will go in today for brakes, this recall plus some other updates to the PCM as well as charging problem investigation. My recall letter ARB6 campaigne, only refers to the advice to charge to 80%! No mentioning of not...

We have to remember that his use case is quite different to @tigerbalm. Dee only estimated to drive the car a couple of thousand kilometers per year the next couple of years. So most likely limited to Netherlands and some stint to Germany??

But it is quite amazing that Tesla managed to get the marketing message through around a lousy design!

When I extended my warranty, I did it at the same time as the service. And then I did not have to pay anything for the 111 point check. Seems it was part of it. And my pricing was very similar to yours

If you use the car for long distance tourist driving, it is invaluable. The Porsche Assistance with collection of car and passengers and possible repatriation before the car is repaired and repatriated to you can easily burn a huge hole in your pocket Without it. Ask me how?

I am quite happy with the way the Porsche is designed and implemented. But I can also see that it will be desirable to have the options to engage no recuperation, little , medium and strong, as well as adaptive like the auto setting. I live at 550 m above sea level and often go down to the...

My letter actually offered that I would get a loan car, but that was from Porsche France, the importer. My service centre had nothing to offer now and the offer I got was for the vlapped out Audi A1! The Porsche Customer service for me has been terrible, totally seen. The service guys have been...

Or you could just put on preheating before leaving? But maybe you will run out of 12 volt battery then….? Ach well.

I fear we will see more of that with Ferry’s and train transporter like the Channel tunnel perhaps? Unfortunate development but understandable from Porsche. If they only would make sure that they had enough resources to address these issues. My car has been booked in early November but is only...

Maybe Porsche considers the 1.44 kW power to be too little since the losses easily can amount to 500 - 600watts. If the car then also would need some power for battery heating when cold, you would be drawing power rather than charging?

I think he only stated this in regards to the lack of progress to be blue to charge more than the limit of9.6 kw or 19.2 kW?

I do not believe that Porsche has any other charging system in the car in the US compared to Europe etc. There probably is a consideration for the cables from the EVSE or from the charging socket in the car to charger. Maybe these cables only are rated at max 40amps. We have many countries in...

I would not draw the conclusion that it is bad tech! This was Porsche first generation of EV and I am sure they have started a lot of optimisation projects to eliminate losses in the electronics. Seems to me to be a normal and desirable evolution and great to see that it seems to be noticeable...

Actually you are there already in 2029!

Navigation map updates. If they were reliable and up to date. Nor always true for me. Live traffic reports and re-routing. As I said they are so out of date for me that they are not any help. Happened several times here in France and through Germany POI and charger routing (for those...
