To my count, Godzoo is the third member of this forum whose reported that their Taycan is unable to use the Porsche adapter with Tesla Superchargers. I'd guess that this is a problem with specific, probably older Taycans rather than some Tesla app/charger issue. On SC4 chargers, the screen...

Update: Local Porsche dealer took a look at my 21 RWD Taycan regarding the Tesla charging issue. They also could not get the vehicle to charge at a Tesla charging station. I'm not sure how much they know about this ... they don't have their own Porsche adapter so they couldn't test my car with...

Catpupu, Thanks very much!! I've sent this info to my dealer and they have set up a service appointment to see where the problem lies (me or the car).

I thought I'd post an update on my efforts to charge my Taycan at our local Tesla SCs. From what I can tell most everyone is being successful using Tesla SC with the occasional exception that some SC stations aren't currently accepting non-Teslas. All the SCs I've tried locally do accept...

I've twice had mine to the hopping tire place in my community (what the average white circles use) and they didn't seem at all intimidated by the concept of raising the Taycan off the ground and removing 20 screws and changing four tyres. No muss, no fuss, no problems.

Thanks for clarifying what's involved, especially if the car is not brand new.

If you are talking about the USB in the console, I found that to be sub-optimal and instead run a cord to the back of the console ... between the rear seats. There are several pretty good examples of magsafe charging 'stands' being installed in the cupholders on the forum. Some took the console...

Maybe I was sold a bill of goods by my detailer, but my understanding was that applying an industrial-strength ceramic coating evenly and effectively required a practiced pro.

Agreed regarding Tesla chargers. Around here there are often inoperable 'pumps', support—at least for my Taycan—is nil. Tesla chargers when with w/ my Ioniq charge is slow compared to the increasingly reliable and plentiful EA stations.

What's What's charged in Vegas stays in Vegas?

Which App was that? Also, could anyone point me to how to set up a questionnaire/survey? I'd like to do one on the experiences forum members are having w/ Tesla SCs. Thx.

I have a new theory: there's a set of Taycan VIN numbers that somehow hasn't gotten into the Tesla approved charging vehicle list.

I'd like to set up a poll regarding folks who have gotten set up to charge at a Tesla SC. Could someone point me to how to do that? I can't seem to find it. Thanks.

Sorry, I answered questions directed to Gadzoo ... since we both have the same problem I thought the questions were directed to me. Yesterday I sent a long note to Porsche customer support describing my experience with Tesla SCs.

Someone said 877-798-3752 gets you to Tesla support including for chargers.

Thanks for taking the time. Yes, the SCs are in the Tesla app for both EVs. Yes, selected charger station number from App. Yes, payment info configured and successfully used (also tried Apple Pay at the SC4 in Los Osos, CA). Porsche adapter has been verified to work with Tesla by successfully...

Actually I added it just before trying to charge.

Thanks for these suggestions. I've successfully used the Tesla App quite a few times in recent weeks both locally and in other areas of the state with my Ioniq6. Just no luck with the Taycan so far locally. Attached are three images from my iPhone: a) Taycan settings in myTesla App. b) The...

I've had no luck using the A2Z adapter here in central California (San Luis Obispo area specifically) and just today obtained the Porsche adapter via SunCoast. I think it's a better device than the A2Z but it still doesn't allow me to charge at a Tesla Supercharger (I tried two of them) even...

Seems like they gave it their best shot. If the U.S. had followed through on supporting EV development Porsche would have been well positioned to compete with Tesla and BMW on the high-end. Worse, of course, are the tariffs. It seems to me China's aggressive move to EVs would have been...
