    Flat tire. Things to consider.

    Thanks. I’ll check. I think I’d only use it if the tow wasn’t available. It might have helped as I was on the roof of a parking garage and the large flatbed couldn’t get up there. There was enough air for me to creep to the street. Interestingly the driver was saying that new garages being...

    Flat tire. Things to consider.

    I experienced a flat left rear this week and found out Taycan Michelins are special and the dealer only had one. Also remember there is no spare and not even a “goo” kit. Plus it has to be a flatbed tow truck. Almost too much for AAA but Porsche Help came through. Thank god only one flat. If...

    Porsche’s new $2,026.72 app!

    I just uploaded it and it was free. Supposedly it combined all other functions. We’ll see.

    Check Your Tires!

    I had a flat the other day…no spare and the dealer, fortunately had one tire … only one on hand! Lotsa angst since the tow truck flatbed couldn’t get into the garage where I had parked. These special tires are not the usual so are rare to find if for instance you wanted to replace all 4! Mine...

    Does this trick for maximizing battery charge range actually work? ?

    What is interesting in all this range anxiety is that in the USA drivers average about 30 miles of driving a day. So why worry?

    Does anyone actually charge to only 80%?

    Yep, only to 85% which is fine unless you’re going on an extended trip.

    2020 Taycan Turbo S Dead after 11 months

    Lousy problem. Now that Porsche and Audi are making twins, you'd think that they would have these problem resolved. Especially when Tesla is, for now, eating up the competition and coming up with faster and more advanced designs. As I understand it, replacing the large batter sled is fairly...

    After 45 days my Taycan Tourism Cross is.....dead

    The good and the bad is that Porsche takes care of their brand and will fix it for you. With all the TVs coming online in the next tw0 years, they have to get this together.

    hmmm - my lovely Taycan is limited to 220 miles range - [Edit] I think it's the tires…

    Strange, I get 240 registered at 85% when I charge. Maybe let it get down real low before recharge.

    I am just stunned

    This warrrants a call or email to Porsche Cara of America They need to get on that dealer.

    Anyone considering other EV's?

    I agree. The need to look right to the “dashboard” of the Tesla is really distracting and its Calvin is mundane. Fit, look, quality and handling exemplify the TC.

    Taycan 4S vs GTS

    In my experience with Porsche (years) they will come out with a GTS at some point and it will have bells and whistles that will be significantly less than if you added them piece meal. I've had both, a 911GTS with super adds-on, and a Macan S which I ordered and received right after they come...

    After 45 days my Taycan Tourism Cross is.....dead

    Where are you located? The alternative is always pulling a 2 1/2 ton car out of your garage and putting it on a flat bed! A nightmare for sure.

    Anyone thought of buying a Panamera ST vs Taycan Cross Turismo?

    Bottom line for me was that the Panamera doesn fit in my garage.

    Anyone thought of buying a Panamera ST vs Taycan Cross Turismo?

    Nope. I’ve got it covered with a Macan for hauling and a Taycan fir fun.

    Taycan key fob battery

    Key fob - has anyone had problems with the battery on the key fob? I’ve had to replace both at least once. The dealer feels it might be keeping the fobs too close to the car and they continue to communicate somehow.
