Update for UK owners…
I can confirm that Porsche GB has stated that 21,466 cars in the UK will be recalled for brake hoses.
This was confirmed to me via formal email by DVSA (the UK Vehicle Safety regulatory body).
Post #10 in the UK thread.
UPDATE:
I have received a formal response from DVSA.
Porche GB has confirmed that a total of 21,466 Porsche Taycan vehicles will be recalled for brake hoses.
Screenshot of original letter received from DVSA.
What is the date of manufacture of your car?
If it is after 13 May 2024, then it should have the new hose pipes and should not need any replacement parts.
For UK owners...
I think the recall letters will start appearing from 03 July onwards.
I believe Porsche UK is waiting to hear some more stuff from Porsche Germany, and this is due tomorrow... This was an update from the dealer yesterday...
@MajorJump - Apologies, just to add possibly more waiting time…
There is another recall ARB0 (this is the front axle brake hose pipes) that is also causing a Stop-Sale.
It may be prudent to get your dealership to look into this at the same time - rather than have to wait again in sequence...
Thanks for the tips…
Did you buy the bipandgo while in the UK or did you get this once in France? From where in France?
Also, did you buy the “Bip&Go - Electric electronic toll payment subscription” option?
Did you need any additional charging cards (other than Porsche Charging Card), Zero emissions certificates or any other paperwork - for France/ Italy?
Thanks…
Looking to do Swiss passes and Stelvio later in August … Done most many years back in ICE, but now would be in the Taycan.
Update: 01 July 10:00am
Dropped off my car today morning for another recall issue (the High Voltage Battery fix).
Asked the dealership to look into the Brake hose pipe issue.
Asked to speak to their head tacan technician and was told that
UK dealerships were informed of the issue, about a...
Have dropped off my car today morning for the ARA5 High Voltage battery fix.
Was informed that it is a circa. 30 hour job; so car will be in for a few days....
Will update once I receive the car back..
I have also asked them to check for the Brake Fluid Hose pipe recall issue.
They will check...
@Clive :
Would you mind sharing which dealership you are dealing with?
Not naming & shaming, but just a reference as to which dealership is already aware of your issue?
I have been informed by Porsche Reading that “only 365 cars” in the UK are affected… It doesn’t sem right as worldwide, it...
Thanks for the screenshots…
1) Are these apps specifically from the Taycan (or general apps available for any car)?
2) Were you able to make changes to the Taycan
3) Does the app auto-detect the Car model?
My worry is that the UK dealerships do not have the complete list of cars yet.
The same happened in US as well. Only a few cars were initially listed for recall, and then it became a wider recall.
Is the UK going through the same or is it actually limited to 365 cars only. Do not know !
What features for the tacan are available in OBDEleven?
Other than diagnostics.. what Apps (Coding features) are available?
Would you be kind enough to list or screenshots, please?
Anyone can help if VCDS HEX-V2 can do any of the below?

2) Change Turn Indicator flash count from 3 to 5
3) Start Car in last mode used (i.e. Range, Sport, Sport+) rather than default Normal
4) Increase...
Please keep us posted on what else you are able to find & code.
I am in 2 minds whether to go with VCDS or OBDEleven... or maybe both - whatever gets the job done.
