    How exactly does the four-wheel drive system work? Sliding on snow.

    had first snow yesterday, it is clearly a more rear biased drive. What I noticed is that it would let rear slide if the steering wheel is turned. When you straighten it, front kicks in to stop the slide and pull you out.

    Can you preheat car, heat seats and steering wheel using the Porsche connect app?

    try web version from android. That should work as a backup. You can do all the same things from there.

    Frozen Taycan 4s - Can’t Get in!

    Quick hack - take really warm water (60c or so) and pour it on the frozen parts for the drivers door. That might help to unfreeze. preheating feature should also fix the problem, but its sad to hear that it would not work for you.

    Can you preheat car, heat seats and steering wheel using the Porsche connect app?

    Turned a preheat on today, some 30min before the departure (had unexpexted delay before leaving), that consumed 6%!! It was -5C outside and car had spent a night out. will try to launch preheat 5min prior to the start, let’s see if that’s enough.

    Can you preheat car, heat seats and steering wheel using the Porsche connect app?

    Yes, using e mobility features from Porsche Connect. Used it this morning, nicely got rid of the snow from all windows before arrival. But chewed a few % for preparing the car.

    Taycan Dealer Pickup Checklist

    in case of a solid black, depending on the dealer, the surface might have swirl marks and scratches. Either request a dealer to agree to pay for polish, or leave the car and request a paint correction. Might delay the actual pickup unless they have properly qa’d the car.

    Catastrophic PCM failure and other tech issues

    Coming from the software and hardware development world, more and more it seems that they have faulty IC components. Regular CPUs are typically well tested and the production is far from 100% success, therefore carefull qa and testing post process is required to confirm the chips are good. So it...

    Is it worth getting the car ceramic coated ?

    Yes. much easier maintenance. Insects, bird droppings can be easily washed away. And no more waxing.

    Taycan 4s parked on snow rolling forward - how why and wtf??

    rolling is explained by car not having a park brake on. On Ice I would never use that as the P mode would be pretty much the same. So assuming P would be similar state whilst it actually isn’t - spectacularly bad UX example by Porsche :/ on a side note, it is always adviced to turn the front...

    Taycan 4s parked on snow rolling forward - how why and wtf??

    It certainly could. Summer tyres on snow are completely hopeless.

    Vibration and rattle sounds from the interior . . .

    you will be pleasantly surprised that this method will help you find loose panels, because driving conditions are causing similar vibrations. Therefore, loud volume and sine wave generator will help to replicate the noises and dealer will have evidence on what is wrong.

    Vibration and rattle sounds from the interior . . .

    Simple way to find resonating things is to use sine wave simulator software. Start with 20hz and gradually move up. Also try different volume.
