======================================
I brought my MY20 T4S into the dealer for the software upgrade on Monday 4/5 and expected that I would not see it for at least 3 days. On Wed, the service writer told me that the upgrade killed the 12V battery. They ordered a replacement which was due on...
When I'm driving and don't want to take my eyes off the road to look for the AC touch control, I simply say "Porsche make It warmer" or Porsche make it cooler". It couldn't be easier.
Luke - Thank you for your response; as always, I truly appreciate your candor and information. As a bonus, I also learned things about Tesla that I did not know (I'm clearly not a Tesla "fan-boy").
Please let keep us advised as soon as you learn the official Porsche position regarding the MY21...
MY20 & Function on Demand & Plug & Charge? -
Hi Luke - Several months ago, I posed some questions to you in this forum regarding two new features in the MY21 Taycan. I wanted to know whether those features would become available to MY20 owners, as well.
You wrote that you believed that both...
Remember, we're talking here about Porsche, a company that can find a way to charge big bucks for keyless entry on a $100k - $150k luxury car when it is a standard feature in many cars in the $30k range. After driving Porsches for 45 years, I've learned that you just must be prepared to pull out...
It has been reported elsewhere in this forum that a 1Q update will also include the Plug & Charge feature.
According to Porsche, "the feature simplifies charging. Taycan drivers merely have to plug in the charging cable and authentication is handled automatically via the ISO 15118 standard. As...
Thank you for the information; it was extremely helpful. I hadn't seen the remote Escorts on their website. They have a certified installer several miles from my home, I will look into the cost and the time to install the system in my car.
Thank you for your answer, your installation looks amazing.
I looked at the Escort website and do not see a remote Escort 360 3i Max shown or an accessory display that can be mounted in the mirror.
Please give us more details about your installation.
Did you modify the Escort by removing...
Please.explain, what is the laser/radar display? Where is the laser/radar receiver mounted? Is it a modified mirror, a Porsche accessory or aftermarket??
The posted speed limit on the central display, behind the steering wheel, becomes outlined in red from time to time. What does the red outline mean? I have not found any documentation for the outlined display.
Happy to share resolution. It took three weeks at Porsche service to trouble shoot and get the correct parts in stock to replace those that they found problematic. They replaced many parts on the left side charging system but I don't know which. Seems like Taycan parts are in very limited. Oh...
Hi Luke - I have had an ongoing problem adjusting the brightness of the Center Dash, PCM, and Center Console displays at night which I find too bright and distracting, particularly while driving on a dark road. I've set the brightness sliders to the minimum settings for all of the display areas...
I live in Los Angeles. Despite a hot and sunny summer, I had no problems with heat or sun exposure through the panoramic roof and do not see any reason that I would need to have a sun shield.
Great, thanks for clarifying. I like LCA and am very glad that I have it, particularly since the visibility over the shoulder to the right rear is not great in the Taycan.
LCA is disabled in Sports Plus mode?
After I read your posting I reread the LCA section of "Good to Know" and could find no reference to LCA's being disabled in Sports Plus mode. Where did you learn this about this limitation to LCA? Clearly, if true, all drivers that have cars with LCA should...
