    Some cool pics of interesting wheel designs on a black CT by Vossen (I believe) shared with me from a contact at TAG Motorsports - cool images at the very least and some unusual wheel designs - not in the market right now myself but nice to look at for those wanting more realizations of wheel...

    New MyPorsche and PCM additions - Mar 25 2022

    Just had some updates to my MyPorsche app (believe it was today but perhaps others saw this earlier?) - however it may have messed with my Apple Music in the actual car - need to muck about with it further to see what I or it is doing! Prior to this all I had in here re PCM services was the...

    Selective Memory

    Curious if your drive modes do the same as mine in respect retaining Chassis settings (suspension & ride height) but not ReCup options? In my 2022 CT 4S from day one back in Dec 2021, I was able to set whatever preferred ride height I wanted in each driving mode and the car/PCM would retain...

    Polarized sunglasses that work with the HUD

    I know a lot of folk are really attached to their polarized lenses but as we know the vast majority of these glasses won't work well or at all with HUD optics. I have used GatorZ glasses for as long as I can remember, specifically their Wraptor model, but recently they have developed a...

    Anyone with CT Bike Carrier tested effect on range?

    Thought I'd ask the very few (possibly only 2 folk) I know have received their Taycan CT bike carriers if they happen to have tested any impact on range - obviously a combined function of aerodynamics and total weight (depending on one or two bikes and their corresponding weight) and doing a...

    Replacement for the ugly USA OEM plate holder

    Plate Holder Replacement - a $20 fix! - 100% Reversible Thought I'd re-post this outside my main Mods thread - realize for many this plate holder look is simply not an issue but the OEM plate holder for me really throws off the lines on the rear of the CT and imo is just plain ugly. Just about...

    My Real World Consumptive Test CT 4S

    Bit long winded - apologies up front! Decided to do a quick tour/roundtrip out of Houston via Hempstead, Bellville and Sealy (closest thing to 'hilly' terrain we have nearby Houston) to test what I would refer to as a real world consumptive test without resorting to the constrictions imposed by...

    Battery decline when parked

    I know there has been discussion on this elsewhere but in my example I seem to be getting more loss than I'd expected. This is the first period where the car has not been driven every day since pick-up so no base to compare against as yet re drawdown. I basically ping the car 1-3 times a day to...

    How-To: Select a Charger in MyPorsche App

    I have read more than a few posts now re folk asking how to select a charger from within the newly updated MyPorsche app - I have had 100% success to date with PNC (wherein you simply arrive at a station and plug your car in and charging initiates automatically) and have not had to use the in...

    Ambient Lighting - Pseudo Extended Leather Effect

    Messing about with different ambient lighting choices but keep coming back to the red in my car as it gives the effect of more extensive red leather without the cost! Not really a thread TBH, just a bored moment :) All lighting here set to 80% which is a little bit too bright but does still...

    Note on First Wash - CT after a side trip to 1st 350kW charger

    In case some get concerned, I noticed some beading of watering in what at first appeared to be within the rear light assembly, specifically in the Porsche lamp area. I took pic after blowing most of it out and so not the best but if you are washing your car and later during drying and/or...

    Searching is not providing quick answer so posting here - apologies if a repeat! Newbie in respect road trip DC charging - did my first DC charge yesterday in the Houston Heights and Plug and Charge (P&C) worked like a charm but have some questions re EA membership vs the Porsche-EA P&P...

    In case you hear interior rattling from the trunk area: Here is one that had me fooled for a bit - fortunately have no issues as yet with any rattles in my CT except that after about 1 week of use I noticed a really annoying rattle from the rear (even that origin uncertain at first given the...

    USB drive/stick formatting - PCM onboard 'Technical data' is incorrect

    The onboard 2022 manual/instructions guide is incorrect (read not updated correctly) in respect formatting of USB devices (flash drives/thumb drives etc.).

    CT 4S Road Trip Range - my basic GO-BY

    Note: For experienced EV’ers nothing new here :) Whilst day to day is more than covered by home charging for me, when I start longer trips I will use this simple go-by for setting up leg lengths. Fully appreciate a ton of range threads out there but a LOT to go through for Newbies :)...
