I have the Chargepoint Flex home charger, the wires run about 100F; The charger for my '21 Audi etron [looks the same as the Porsche unit] has thicker wire than the Porsche and runs around 100F as well. An agent at my P/dealer is looking into any fix. Otherwise they say run @50%.
My charger wire and body runs about 125 degrees in my warm Florida garage. My dealer is looking into what can be done. My Audi etron charger has a thicker wire and runs 85F in the same garage.
Running @50% is a good work around.
Ambitious driving schedule the first day. The consumption on the RWD looks high compared to my experience. You will probably arrive with more battery than the planner states. My experience with long distance roadtrips in an EV is that the stops take longer than the plan schedules. Therefore the...
Most likely the charging cable overheating and shutting down the charge. Do you get the red charge level like the pic on the first page of this thread?
Best to take it to the dealer for analysis. Let us know if you get a new charger setup.
Fired up my '22 charger for the first time, the wire size is smaller than the Chargepoint Flex Home charger that I have been using all along. The Porsche supplied charger wire to the car runs at 125F in a garage that's about 95F now in central Florida. The pigtail to the 14-50 outlet is running...

Hope this gives you some idea. You can change the general points to more specific addresses.
Good luck, feel free to ask questions.
For those drivers reporting less than 300 wH/mi on the highway, you must be running 19-20" aero wheels?
I have the 21" 305/30 tires on the back of my '22 RWD and see around 350 wH/mi @ 80 mph.
Which calculates to 240 miles of range.
" If someone hops out, for a bit, then back in, it's possible somehow it comes back on in standby in certain cases? "
May be the way my wife gets into the car. We are seniors and it's a little bit of a challenge to get into this car. Now that we know about tapping te screen we have a work...
During a previous episode had the wife get out of the car ahead of me and the passenger air bag "turned off" message appeared in the [right hand] third tube display. So it appears the car knew someone was in the passenger seat. Today it happened again and we tapped on the display and it came on.
I am experiencing this exact issue even with a pasenger in the seat, on my '22 [October '21 build] RWD. If leaving the car for a while the display returns okay. Standby mode is not checked. Stopping the car and starting it without gettng out of the car does not rturn the passenger display to...
My wife noticd a teenager taking a picture of our car while on the road. Have had nice comments when charging. But the annoying side is the childish antics by the Mustang, Camaro, and Hemi crowd. passing by and rapping their loud exhaust! Guess they don't realize they will be driving electric...
The Audi etron will run down the 12V battery if the charging plug is left into the car without charging the battery for long lengths of time. This seems to be BC some electronics stay alive when the charger plug is connected to the car. Not sure if this the case with Taycan but would be wise to...
We are having this exact problem. I tried a few experiments leaving the second key in the car while I got out after shutting the dash down but can not recreate the problem. Has anyone found a cause or cure for this problen?
I continue to be amazed at how well balanced the coil suspension is on my '22 RWD. The car is so firm on the ground but bumps do not beat me up. The TMY was crtitized right from the begining for being very bouncy. Suprised they haven't fixed that. Tesla is only interested in "# Deliveries in...
Took my '22 Taycan into the dealer to have a tire leak repaired and while there a delivery truck backed into the trunk lid. Of course the dealer took care of it. I have had so many bad luck stores with people crashing into my cars. Handed over my 2017 BMW 5 to a 5 star hotel valet and the next...
Look through this website for available Taycans:

I found mine 600 miles away, flew up to the dealer and drove it back home.
Lucky had no issues with the car. Only had to wait a month.
Range mode on the 4S turns the car into front wheel drive under low accelerator settings. The range is increased considerably when decoupling the rear motor. Very useful for long trips.
