  1. Bloomberg News : Porsche Readies Global Taycan EV Recall to Fix Software Issue

    Absolutely. At least in the US you guys are getting some info however confusing it may be. Absolutely nada at this end. Best I got from my dealership is that maybe if we reinstall WMA5 the problem will go away. Ironically that may actually work if the update has been updated. That makes...
  2. Bloomberg News : Porsche Readies Global Taycan EV Recall to Fix Software Issue

    The "fix" was already out there, hence the number of US posters who have had the up-date to the up-date. What is new is the recall. That makes it even worse - we know there's a problem, we have a fix, but we're not going to roll it out. From a purely economics point of view that makes sense -...
  3. Bloomberg News : Porsche Readies Global Taycan EV Recall to Fix Software Issue

    N No, but it's suspicious timing given that the issues have been documented for a long time now, yet news of the recall is only a week after the investigation was launched. Not saying there is any evidence, but just saying.
  4. Bloomberg News : Porsche Readies Global Taycan EV Recall to Fix Software Issue

    Wow. It's a shame it has taken an NHTSA investigation to do the right thing here. As mentioned in the previous post, this happened to our car two and a half months after the WMA5 software up-date, so it's a problem lurking in the system. Predictably, my dealer had no idea that anyone had an...
  5. Taycan Welcome Kit

    ...and before anyone says it, the paperweight was not the car itself
  6. Taycan Welcome Kit

    I got a paperweight. Oh, and a key ring.
  7. NHTSA investigating Taycan power loss issue

    Thanks Mark, this is really helpful. Seems like a different process than the NHTSA, since the DVSA only steps in if the manufacturer hasn't provided a solution, but I think it is worth any UK Taycan owners how have had this problem reporting it.
  8. NHTSA investigating Taycan power loss issue

    Right this happened to my wife today (drive system control fault). Before today, we've had no serious problems with the Taycan since buying it July 2020 (didn't even get the 12V battery problem), and had the WMA5 up-date about two-and-a-half months ago without any serious issues. Fortunately...
  9. Strange Braking Issue

    Dam, happened to me once when reversing at low speed (post software update) and just thought it was a one-off glitch. Sounds like I may have to keep a look out for it on an ongoing basis
  10. Apple Music app not appearing in media

    Just double-check that there aren't any over-the-air downloads available for the infotainment system on the PCM. If you picked-up your car on 4th June, you probably have the new software update. For me, the Apple Music icon did not appear after the update until I manually downloaded the...
  11. Does this trick for maximizing battery charge range actually work? ?

    Isn't this just the usual new car "bump". The poster mentions that he "installed" it 2 weeks ago - I assume he means he only got the car two weeks ago? If that is the case, the car is simply getting used to his driving, since when new, the range estimate is conservative. That and also the...
  12. How often do you re-boot PCM?

    Internet radio, navigation etc work every time for me after network is reestablished; it’s just Apple Music that I have to reboot for.
  13. How often do you re-boot PCM?

    Quite a few times to get the native Apple Music to work. I think tigerbalm is right that this most often occurs if the car is switched on when there is poor network coverage; for whatever reason, Apple Music is not good at flipping back when network coverage is reestablished unless you reboot...
  14. Rear spoiler will not reposition itself

    Same fix here. Mine became misaligned again after one long drive, then rectified itself after another long drive, so jury’s our. I haven’t had the temerity to take the car out in the rain since the fix yet though. Apparently the wing issue is all our faults for getting it wet.
  15. Apple Music icon missing

    Yep. I can link podcasts but then Apple Music unlinks, then when I link Apple Music, Podcasts unlinks. I don't seem to be able to link both at the same time.
  16. New software upgrade

    I think I agree. It may all be in my head, but Sport Plus seems way more vicious than before. In a good way...
  17. 2021 April Software update results - 2020 Taycan Turbo

    I received my letter about a week after the up-date was completed!
  18. 2021 April Software update results - 2020 Taycan Turbo

    Daveo4EV - Apple Music Lyrics and Apple Podcasts were part of the 10-15 manual up-dates on my car post WMA5, so if you have those it is likely that your dealer downloaded all the up-dates for you.
  19. 12V Battery Failure

    Just been noticing charging behaviour on my 2020 Taycan after the recent WMA5 up-date. If the car is trickle charging on solar power, when the Sun goes behind a cloud, and so the EV charger (Zappi) stops charging the car, the car charging port initially starts flashing white. After about a...
