    Another 12V flat battery

    Your 12V battery is charged by the HV battery. No need for a trickle charger, don't screw up the proces in your car's software! If the 12V battery isn't charged, there's something wrong with the software but generally you can leave it 4 weeks or even longer without any intervention. Though, it...

    Redshift vs MapEV

    I'm running 335/25/22 rear (and 265/35/21 front) which is about 10 mm bigger in diameter but I haven't tried topspeed yet with this setup. It should be a little faster then (GPS-wise).

    Redshift vs MapEV

    You're right, I mean: To go only a few kph faster you need way more power to maintain the torque, I guess there's a limit on that power too as this comes from the battery, not the inverter.

    Redshift vs MapEV

    Actually, in theory, you can. By running a bigger tire or a 22" rim on the rear. But then you would run into max current of the inverter, right? Anyway, 270 is fast enough and quite comfortable, it feels better than a 992 C4S.... 😇

    J1.2 - "12 Volt battery low" message

    PS I didn't know they made a convertible version of the 917.....🤪

    J1.2 - "12 Volt battery low" message

    It should be standard that the voltage of the 12V battery is shown in the right dial of the instrument cluster. That way you can monitor if the 12V battery is charged/charging or not: 13.4V: battery is charged, all good. <13.0V: battery isn't charging, not good! ~14.4V: battery is charging by...

    Redshift vs MapEV

    I have the Redshift tune (way before MapEV was available) and I also wanted the Vmax limiter disabled. It doesn't work. I'm still not able to go over 272 km/h. It has something to do with saturation of the motor(s), max amps through the inverter and/or max rpm of the motor. It was of no extra...

    Transmission Oil

    What's the difference? It reduces the rpm of the engine (and increases torque), both in EV and ICE. The only difference is the powerband but technically they are identical. It doesn't matter if the Taycan has a two-speed gearbox, it's still a reduction box, just like every other gearbox. Point...

    Transmission Oil

    That article states that an EV doesn't have a transmission but that's definitely not true. It has a reduction box with fixed gears and that's exactly the same as a gearbox. I also miss the explanation what transmission oil does: lubrication but also cooling. Transmission fluid doesn't need...

    Three months without Porsche Connect... and it's not so bad

    I tried living without it and I was curious what would be gone and what would be left. I made a topic about it: https://www.taycanforum.com/forum/threads/what-if-i-dont-renew-porsche-connect-whats-gone-and-whats-left.25742/page-2 Long story short: I renewed my subscription cuz €309/year is...

    OTA update of the ARB6 recall has arrived.

    Yeah, me too, that's why I posted here. Maybe more people are still waiting. Anyway, I usually don't have the issues other people have. Don't know why but I'm definitely not complaining. 😇

    OTA update of the ARB6 recall has arrived.

    It is. But then again, who cares? This is all part of ARB6. The only thing that wasn't done yet is WRW1 so soon my recall will show as finished.

    OTA update of the ARB6 recall has arrived.

    On the 5th of August I got the letter but nothing happened. PS My car is white, not blue. 🤗 Until yesterday. So today I started the OTA update. All went well and after 30 minutes it was done, no problem whatsoever. First I was afraid it didn't work with a 2020 model but it had one OTA...

    We should not complain - Lucid Owners have the worst of it (Engineering Explained regrets purchase)

    Fisker has been dead before so they know who to do this very effectively....🤪 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisker_Karma

    The Porsche Taycan is my biggest disappointment this decade

    So what are all the recalls and s/w updates for then?

    A good opportunity to go turbonite! 😉 Yes, I'm always positive but I can imagine you're furious.
