    Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) failure at 4 years 1 month causes expensive repairs

    No, even steel-brakes should go for 100 kmiles and more easily, if not used on racetrack.

    Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) failure at 4 years 1 month causes expensive repairs

    I never heard of usual wear on the P-brake and would assume it lasts as long as the PCCB. If you park a lot on steep terrain, that would possibly wear the material faster. If J1.2 only has one side P-brake, that could cause faster wear, too. It is theoretically possible on private ground to...

    GTS Ride Quality with or without Active Ride

    That's one thing I like about the Porsche experience. Yes, it costs money, but the level of individualization possibilities is just endless, so one can create it's own personal set-up almost perfectly.

    failed on board charger. advice please

    I just had the job done. My Taycan wouldn't move an inch anymore and had to be towed in. I was charging 11 kW and it stopped in the middle. Charger was dead, Taycan showed red circle. I could engage the car but it would not go into gear. In Germany, they can fix the issue within days. Just be...

    Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) failure at 4 years 1 month causes expensive repairs

    PCCB is not build for heavy track use, they will "wear down" fastly. And if used on track, only with different brake-pads.

    I like blue PTS, but this in real life was a bit of a candy-box. 😏

    Are Porsche owners arrogant?

    I started with electric cars when I still had an aircooled 993 Carrera S. Man, you should have heard all the studied doctors and engineers... Funny enough, I will have my first reunion since 2016 with that club next month on a Porsche tour in the Erzgebirge Mountains. Of course I wouldn't be...

    Draggy acceleration time results on the Carscanner Carplay app

    I think Dragy is more precise, as it uses GPS. It's quite expensive also, for just recording acceleration. Not worth the price to me. With Carscanner, you can also use the phone app to measure acceleration, but in Carplay it's a lot more comfy.

    Fjord Green Taycan with painted wheels

    I am that guy! I just can't have yellow callipers on this combination of silver, gloss black and carbon. I'm more the monochrome type...

    Why is the Taycan so prone to tire punctures?

    2 years ago, I also had 2 flat tires with the Taycan in the time of 2 months...after the 20 years before only one flat tire ever. Since 2 years luckily nothing. I put it in the category "bad luck".

    GTS Ride Quality with or without Active Ride

    I had the GTS in Sport Plus, the Turbo in Normal and Sport, missed out on the Sport Plus. Didn't have the time to go deeper i to the settings. Does PAR have an extended menu, apart from on/off?

    GTS Ride Quality with or without Active Ride

    My own experience with PAR: Last week I was on a Taycan track-experience day in Leipzig, taking different Taycans around their race-track. GTS, 4S and Turbo were the iterations. First I had the GTS. Here it proved, that the GTS setup is indeed the best for ambitious driving. It gave good...

    Porsche sales 1st QTR 2026 -article

    Luckily, nobody here is trolling or taking their opinion too seriously. That would possibly destroy the conversation. I'd still spend 235 k on a nice GTS as daily. But wait...my daily is a Taycan I am still very happy with (I know, very controverse). And than there is my "base" 911T for the...

    Porsche sales 1st QTR 2026 -article

    I would justify the price with getting YOUR dream car in a dream spec. And if it's not your dream car, then get sth else (yes, most possibly cheaper). My spec sheet on a perfect GTS Targa has a price tag of 235 K Euro. If I would drive my 911 as daily, I would spend that money and enjoy it...

    How can it crack whilst installing a foil? No strong mechanical force needed for the job.
