Quick update: Took it to OPC today just to run a diagnostic and confirmed the cabin heater has gone bye bye. Sadly first available slot for replacement is in 2 weeks but they do have the part in stock. Odd thing is on the way back after a 40 minute drive just as I was arriving home it started...

Trying to get others experience with the heater problem since it's such a common issue. Just overnight the heater stopped working, the fan still blows but only unheated air, but not very cold either. Have schedule a visit to an OPC next week but in the meantime ran a diagnostic tool and came...

There’s an older thread that talks about the same issue although not necessarily based on a software update. Some claim that a terminal 8 reset procedure fixes the issue. Many also stated that it just showed up again a week later. Definitely some sort of software glitch.

Did the update, and not sure if related but smart lift function disappeared from PCM and all saved locations not working.

Some updates... 12 V battery seems ok according to tech in OPC, however what caused the wire connected to the positive charging stud to heat up and burn the plastic is still unknown. The tech did say that unsecured and not properly tighten wire could be a possibility, however he also suspects...

Hi everyone, I've been trying to find similar cases in this forum, but all I can find is 12v dead battery issues. MY 2023 GTS was showing a 12 battery low message when starting (Never seen that before), started driving and a few minutes later it started to smell to burn electrical wires...

Hi Pedro, I guess my car is parked next to yours. I assume Porsche Porto? I'm currently also waiting on spares for a 22kw OBC, which it seems could take up to 2-3 weeks. I assume you have Porsche assist services? Since your car was towed, you are entitled to a full week of a loan car. I was...

Well, sitting next to my car there were 4 other Taycans all waiting the same dreaded 22kw charger. The Porsche service advisor told me that they have a total of 15 cars (All Porsche) for loan purposes but always with high demand. They do not offer an alternative solution as going with a...

Hi everyone, I've recently been a victim of the famous 22kw OBC failure and the car had to be towed to the shop. I managed to get a temporary car but this was via the "Porsche assistance" service and it was from a rental car company. Ended up with a Tesla model 3 but this will only be for 1...

Yup, 22kw charger strikes once again.

Hi everyone, Car was at the dealers just recently for the 2 month battery check and was given a clean bill of health, but today while on the motorway a message popped up saying “Electric Sustem Fault - Park vehicle safely”. Car was able to drive normally. After managing to get off the motorway...

I was told that the new car warranty is valid in all EU but for used car warranty issued in Germany a small list of countries do not accept it. Portugal being one of them and I believe Spain, Ireland and the Czech republic. Was never explained the reason why. Anyway, still have new car warranty...

Just a bit. They took 1000€ off because the 1 year used car warranty issued in Germany has no validity in Portugal and offered the export plates and insurance that was valued at 500€ ish…

Hi everyone, Perhaps my question or doubt is country specific, but I’m hoping someone is having similar issues and could possibly shed some light. I’m a recent owner of a 2023 GTS and while picking it up from Germany and driving it to Portugal, I had no issues on the charging network. Some...

Hi MurfPT, Did you do your repair in Portugal? I'm curious how Porsche dealers in Portugal treat their customers. Were you offer a vehicle replacement during the repair? Have you tried to extend the warranty with them? Wondering how much that would cost. Thanks.

Appreciate all info. It's been a bit of a struggle to communicate with the dealer since I'm not German nor speak the language and most of our exchange has been in German. (Google translate) The person I've been talking to is really nice, but I've been lost in translation a couple of times...

Hi everyone, I'm just a couple of weeks away from receiving my 2023 Taycan GTS and would like to ask the following: Is the Porsche Mobile Charger part of the standard equipment? Appreciate any feedback. Thanks.

I really appreciate all the replies, from what I gather it does seem like it was a good purchase. I think it's hard to predict when the depreciation curve will begin to flatten but I bought the car knowingly that it will most likely keep loosing its value above market standards for the next few...
