I have confirmed you can trickle charge the 12v lithium battery through the OBDII port since I was told using the cigarette lighter port could not be used for this purpose like normal ICE Porsche vehicles.
I’m told the fuse on the OBDII 12v connection is 3 or 4 amp but I assume a small trickle...
I’ve connected a trickle charger to my 2006 Dodge Sprinter through the OBDII port and it works perfectly to maintain my engine starting battery.
I’m hoping I can add a trickle charger to my 2021 Taycan to always keep a trickle charger connected to maintain the 12V Lithium battery.
My service...
I’m hoping Porsche intends to get to the bottom of all their EV reliability issues over the next few years at most. The brand’s long term integrity is at stake.
if they don’t and expensive vehicle repairs become commonplace then Porsche will become what Jaguar was for many years before Ford...
I just saw an interesting article about the most miles driven per year over a 3 year period. Tesla was roughly 12K and Taycan was 6K.

I don't feel so bad now knowing my average is about 5K/year at the most on my Taycan CPO but the...
I Just started charging at EA and the Porsche app reports 195 at 94% but the center console shows 158 at 94%.
This is the first time charging where the miles don't match.
I'm not sure which one to trust the normal numbers in the app or the lower numbers (30+ mile difference) on the car itself...
I hoping to find out how big this LG battery issue really is. I'm estimating that Porsche has sold at least 100,000 Taycan's from 2019 through 2022 and there could be 5% to 10% max (hopefully) of these vehicles which will require partial or full battery replacement within the 8 year warranty...
I am in the semiconductor industry and there is a big push to make every chip manufactured with it's own unique code to be authenticated to the system it's in to insure the configuration is correct and nothing has been swapped out which could corrupt the overall system.
This is now being...
Anyone know what this option costs and if it can be added to my 22 Taycan? I would expect it will be expensive since the entire glass roof and the wiring would need to change.
I'm just trying to block the sun a bit over the driver & passenger seats when we drive from OC to Las Vegas during the...
