I just went through this same thing on my 2021 4S CT. I used a silicone spray similar to the Sonax. however, the exposed metal points that the OP posted were not the culprit, as far as I could see. I blindly sprayed some lubricant under the plastic seatback pivot mold, and that seems to have...

You didn't ask me but I went from both a Model S (old 2013), then Model Y, to the Taycan. The things I miss the most from the Tesla are the supercharger network's "it just works" ability first and foremost. Managing energy levels & scheduling charging is much more intuitive as well. After that...

Have you done the Zion trip yet? One thing to note is the elevation change. My wife and I own a ski vacation home near Cedar City so driving *to* is always a fun, torturous exercise in watching my range plummet from the incline, but then we get the better experience of much more efficient...

Yeah it looks like your issues are twofold. First, the high outlet, second, it would be to the right of the charger, not the left, making your run to the outlet that much more challenging. First I'd recommend trying to rotate the 14-50 outlet by 90 degrees so that the charger's plug would...

Yeah the cable + connector on ChargePoint's are great. Seem very sturdy and are not at all difficult to release. Similar for me too. I got my ChargePoint on Dec 18, 2023 and just submitted for reimbursement a few days ago. I guess we'll see.

Oh man that is stunning. May be my favorite exterior config so far. I could spend all day taking pictures of that one.

Didn't Pre-2023 models get the same software enhancements that rolled out with the 2023 models? Adjusted charge curve, decoupling of the motors (as mentioned above), etc.? I just completed my first road trip on my 2020 4S and sure enough the charge curve seemed to match the "new" curve that...

This is a dream setup for charging. Well done! Do all of the units need to be connected to max out at 48A or could they be connected to a lower-amerpage breaker - or configured - to max out at 40A, or 32A? Did you need to have an electrician install them all for you? Do the units only come...

I’m closer to your situation, Dave. I love my ‘20 Taycan 4S, but when the time comes I will be releasing it into the wild to be replaced by the Macan, though for me that’ll be a lease return 1-2 years into production. I think Taycan Forum should expand to include Macan when, or before, it...

I’d like to know this too. I’m tempted to take a flyer on it and order it. just prepare to be disappointed. ?

This is what I'm most interested in with regards to recuperation vs brake pad use. Given this is my first Porsche EV (owned 2 Teslas in the past and 1 Porsche plug-in), I'm very keen to the idea that I may never need to replace my brake pads. It was easier to know for certain I wasn't using...

Ohh I love the handles! I wish my Taycan had them where they’re far more useful than they were in my Cayenne. My understanding is that they’re a Porsche tradition, sort of like the left hand ignition switch.

Agreed. In an ICE I would push through as far as possible before filling up but now in an EV, first an older Model S, then a Model Y and now a Taycan, with a few exceptions, I am almost always the reason my charging stops take longer than my car's need. However, I do challenge the notion that...

Yeah unfortunately my Taycan's original owner seems to have spec'd everything under the sun except for that.
