    Taycan 4S impressions from new owner

    Do you have a MY2021 car? Touchscreen is fast in mine. Wireless Apple Carplay works fine for me (in the UK, not sure if it's a region thing) Do you mean automated distance-adjusting cruise? Did you spec adaptive cruise? Agree it shouldn't be an option on a car of this price, but at least you...

    Delay issuing physical Taycan Charing Cards

    Yes, this - just sign up for the service, turned up in the post a short while later.

    Wont allow me Rename charging profile

    I don't have an answer why you can't change it in the car, but have you tried creating (or editing) via the App or the Website instead?

    Roast my lack of restraint ...

    Nice spec. Out of interest, how close were you to Turbo S money? Since some of the options are standard on the TS.

    Review our 4S build [Well, mine with input from Dad :p)

    Really? Mine doesn’t, unless I’ve missed something in the PCM. I thought that was the point of the option, otherwise what does it do that the standard car doesn’t?

    Review our 4S build [Well, mine with input from Dad :p)

    You’ve gone all-in for the sport design pack in gloss black but not the mirror bases in gloss black I’m sure lots of people will suggest Sport Chrono to quickly change drive modes Adaptive Cruise is nice to have on a Daily Driver and allows more upgrades with Feature On Demand later Comfort...

    Time to recieve new battery from Germany to USA?

    Fair chance you’re the first person to have a new battery I suspect. A complete new battery, or just some cells? What’s the reason, if I can ask?

    Delay issuing physical Taycan Charing Cards

    I must have been lucky then, signed up for the card on the website 21 Dec, received it very quickly afterwards. Still haven’t worked out how to get a second card for my wife though.

    My 4S always charges past it’s set 85% to 91%??

    I'm thinking the same thing - I've experienced the same issue here. I have a general profile set to 85% max charge and a timer set to pre-heat only (no charging). If the car is plugged in to the charger when the pre-heating starts, it seems to over-charge, even though the charging to 85%...

    BASE Taycan + $10,000 Must Have Options

    Not sure anything is really must-have.. it’s all personal preference. Larger battery would be high up my list, but if you only drive 100 miles per week it might not be essential to you. I couldn’t live with the standard wheels but plenty of others seem to ok. I’ve only had mine a couple of...

    Custom Key FOB

    no, b*ll*cks do you, it just prises off! At least mine did, perhaps I’ve just stripped a load of tiny threads.. I prised (carefully) from the end opposite the Porsche badge, each side at a time. The original silver central bezel is essentially hinged (clipped, sort of) at the badge end. You...

    Taycan Cross Turismo spotted with new wheel design

    Are we back on a Cross Turismo now? I thought that was replaced by a Sport Turismo? Anyway, I really want to like this as the rear hatch suits me (and my dog) a lot better - but this thing looks hideous in pictures, like some bad Photoshop mash-up. I'm really hoping it looks better in real life.

    brand new Taycan Turbo - creases on seat bolster ok?

    After my success with getting a replacement rear camera I thought my luck might be in - but no, the warranty claim has been rejected by Porsche. Apparently that's normal and expected for leather which is a natural product. Considering my options now, I think my wife fancies taking the fight to...

    are all rear cameras this bad?

    Porsche have agreed to replace the rear camera under warranty. The dealer had the car in and said it was significantly worse than the other Taycans they have there. Success!

    New EPA range estimates for 2021 Taycan. 4S now rated for 227 miles

    Almost no one - really? Anecdotal evidence from the pictures on here seems to show that more people have the 21” (of either type) than don’t. And when I visit the dealer most of the Taycans there have 21s too.

    How does the standard window and mirror trim look?

    Personally I thought the standard black plastic looked really cheap and stood out on a white car. Chrome trim isn’t quite as bad but I still prefer the black look. I still moan about having to pay to have my mirror bases painted on a £115k car but I’m glad I did. Strangely, on other colours...

    Pod point a good choice and where to mount?

    You can buy PEN protection devices like this that are an alternative to an earth rod: https://evonestop.co.uk/products/o-pen-ev-consumer-unit Also, I think the earth rod is only required if the EV charger is outside - if it’s inside the garage I’m not sure it’s required. But I’m no expert (or...

    CARRARA WHITE Taycan Club

    are all rear cameras this bad?

    :D Well the brake lights are on since I'm taking a picture of the screen and I'm still in reverse and both of those lights are pretty bright, but it seems the camera doesn't really handle the contrast very well.

    Qualifying the "Porsche Expert" at your dealership...

    How do I limit charge to 85%? How do I reset <insert warning message here> warnings? How do I make my folding mirrors fold in when I lock the car? How do I make comfort access work?
