    Your other electric vehicle

    I have reservations for a Cybertruck, Rivian R1T & a F150 Lightning, depending on which hits first (all are sounding well into 2023 for me at this point). I wish Toyota would get into the BEV world, I really want an electric version of my Tundra.

    Upgraded from 2020 Taycan 4S to 2022 Taycan 4S

    My ‘21 Taycan headlights swivel with the steering wheel (above a certain speed), just like they do in my 2017 Boxster.

    Smart Lift saving gone after using the new My Porsche app

    Meh, not a big fan of CI, which is tantamount to perpetrating forced beta testing onto end users. We’ve had like six different Porsche apps for years now, we could’ve dealt with that for a few more months until they worked out at least the obvious bugs from the consolidated replacement app...

    Smart Lift saving gone after using the new My Porsche app

    Got back in the car, Smart Lift & all my saved locations were back in the PCM Menu. So maybe an anecdotal solution, but…

    Smart Lift saving gone after using the new My Porsche app

    Ok well I deleted the new app & just connected to the car with the old Connect app. Next time I go for a drive I’ll see what happens.

    Smart Lift saving gone after using the new My Porsche app

    Just got around to checking, mine’s gone too. @Mtljckt, did you just uninstall MyPorsche & go back to using the Connect app to get it back, or…? WTAF

    Closing the doors

    That’s what Tesla said, too. F=MA doesn’t care about what marque is on your car.

    Smart Lift saving gone after using the new My Porsche app

    Interesting, I installed the MyPorsche app yesterday. Tonight I hit the raise button, the car raised up but it didn’t ask me to save the location. Didn’t think much of it at the time, now I’m going to have to go out & look at the PCM menu…

    There’s a goat stuck in my front brakes

    So just heard from the dealer. Apparently there is a bulletin out on this problem. Step 1 is to bleed the brakes which apparently fixed the issue at this time for me. Step 2 is apparently more or less a complete brake overhaul. I’ve had the car for 8 months & it has just under 4K miles on it. I...

    High amount of second hand Taycans on the market ?

    Something to consider in the US, if you sell yours now, the next one prolly won’t be eligible for a tax credit.

    Check Your Tires!

    Aren’t you eligible for free alignment during the first 12 months/12000 miles?

    Check Your Tires!

    So (it would seem like) the tires on a RWD EV take it from both directions…acceleration and regenerative braking. I don’t know how much the front motor participates in regen on the Taycan, but maybe that’s a factor? Just a hunch, I have no data (empirical or otherwise) to back that theory.

    Keyfob not detected

    It took me a while to learn the technique. 1) Fob not in same pocket as cellphone 2) Hold finger steady (don’t rub or move around) on the indent for up to 2s. 99%+ success doing it this way. My Boxster is way less finicky. Also, dunno if you have the powered charge port cover; attempting to...

    Keyfob not detected

    The fob for my ‘17 Boxster (also with comfort access) is much more reliable in terms of detection than my Taycan fob. Taycan fob buttons are also way more touchy…I’m constantly finding the frunk popped when I go out to the garage for something unrelated.

    There’s a goat stuck in my front brakes

    (‘21 4S) I’ve been noticing increased brake pedal travel over the last week or so. At first it was during parking; while trying to inch up to the parking block required me to be quick on the pedal to avoid scraping it. Now while driving I also notice occasional-tending-towards frequent delayed...
