Good luck. I got the same message from them that they wouldn’t schedule until they had firm dates due to the shortage. The day the car arrived at port, they emailed me to let me know I could finally schedule my PEC ( LA) delivery as early as … 2.5 months in the future!!! I doubt that’s an...
what buttons are you pushing prior to exiting the car? park button? holding/short pressing power button? Neither, both? Something else? Would be great to know if this is a feature!
Preserving debt to income ratios if you’re looking to take a home or personal loan out for other reasons. You may prefer to have your borrowing done against something other than a car in this case.
Would you mind posting the files to https://www.thingiverse.com/ or somewhere similar? I’d like to print one but I can’t imagine you’d like to be bothered by each person who is interested in a copy!
PEC notified me about the date and I pushed hard to pull it in to no avail. I’m assuming they’ll be refunding the $500. The dealer has actually not been involved in this discussion at all. I’ve been told independently by the dealer that the repair parts (TPMS) are arriving this week or next week...
I just got word that my mid October planned PEC Los Angeles delivery is not going to happen until December of this year. I found out this morning when the car (a 4S cross turismo) arrived at port. They’ll be rerouting the car to the dealer for delivery at my request.
Word to the wise: If you’ve...
Unfortunately those locations have active vents that open and close so I think you’re out of luck. The middle of the grille might work out though, especially if you don’t have night vision or the radar sensor for ACC
I’d be surprised if it’s stressed enough to have a practical cycle life limitation, even at high speed. The winding count should be easily tuned to make sure that you’re in a safe place for cycle life.
The Tesla appears traction limited to 60mph, for what it’s worth. (Power graph)
The taycan looks traction limited to half that speed (torque graph)
PM motors are generally most efficient close to their torque knee, where the motor transitions from constant torque to constant power, and the...
They developed their own filament winder that winds under tension, which will also help with motor efficiency as well as power curve due to the smaller air gap between stator and rotor. Honestly a way better solution from an engineering perspective than a transmission, I personally don’t think...
I’m not sure everyone here understands power. If you have a flat power curve, the transmission is irrelevant and serves no purpose, as its only purpose is to keep you in your peak power range, assuming you’re past the traction limit in your peak torque range. Power IS what accelerates you at...
Or the parking pawl that locks the rear wheels from moving when going into park. It’s a little tab that locks into a gear connected to the transmission drivetrain.
Just got confirmation that mine will arrive without:
- Second key fob/remote
- TPM control unit
- Telephone console (charger and signal booster?)
- Control unit for acoustic simulator (external?)
Only the TPM control unit is required to be installed before delivery. Interesting that it looks...
I ordered and received an allocation at launch, still waiting delivery! Also waiting delivery of the bike rack. Porsche say another 7 weeks to go for the car, nothing for the rack. My dealer says they don’t even have a way to order the rack.
