My Taycan cane with Goodyear Eagle FI Assymetric 5’s. 265/35R21 NF0
`Have so say I have not been impressed with them in that I have had several spontaneous flats where the inner side wall has seperated with the road surface over a few inches.
TO be fair this could be poor road quality. I have...
Got to say, I think the porker charge rate is just too clever and defeats purpose.
My etron charges at 150kwh right up to 80%. Much more useful in normal life that the Porsche cycle
2y old car. Must be the 6-7th time this has happened. Ive had it from new.
THe Porchse recovery guy reckons there is a fault with the 12v battery as it accepts charge slowly at the start of the topping up process. After 5min it then behaves normally.
Keep taking it to main dealer who say the...
TBH a bit shocked by this. So few J2’s have this specced; apparently not enough usage. There were charging £730 each for ALK and innodrive. No wonder. It’s a £900 option FFS.
anyway, I’m kinda shocked by this.
Any thoughts on the stock MATRIX LED lights that are standard on a J2 GTS vs the optional HD Matrix ones?
How do the Matrix LED lights in a J2 taycan compare to the standard ones in the J1 Taycan? (Exclusive Matrix LED headlights in black, with Porsche Dynamic Light System Plus (PDLS Plus)...
Just looking for a general opinion - not legal advice.
Driving on M25; are in adaptive cruise. Monitors speed limited and adjusts. Works beautifully.
I am doing 70; overhead signage changes speed to 50mph about 200m infront. I am in auto mode, fully expecting car to detect and reduce speed to...
I'm looking at Gen1.2 Taycans. I seem to be getting a brand new 4S but the bhp is being recorded as 544bhp with overboost and max power of 462 bhp.
However I was told it has 598 bhp.
I cannot figure this out.
Looking on second hand tacyans, I can see some early ones had 544bhp and not 598bhp...
Keen to have comments from anyone who had a gen1 GTS and has moved to a Gen2 4S.
im considering this but wanna know whether folk have done the same and regretted it?
im aware a GTS has a lot of sporty bits as standard and feels very planted on the road. Launch control is a gimmick but scary...
got a mild bit of kerning on 1 whee; Will get a refurb in due course but thinking of a touch up paint application which will make it disappear.
Anyone know how to go that? is there a paint stick? Anyone know the colour code?
my 1y old car has been recovered twice due to the 12V issue.
My suspicion is the 12V has a fault.
Porsche have not found a fault and have not changed it.
I am about to go away for 2w and will leave it standing at home, charges at 85% with the power cable removed.
I now have the voltage readout...
What might I notice moving out of my GTS saloon to a base new model base (as in the Taycan)?
What interests me is the quoted 400mile range which is a game changer from the paltry mileage from the J1.1.
Obvs option list is what it is. What else do I need to consider?
Cheers
Hi. I have a 7kw solar array recently installed.
Currently the EV's are set to charge during the octopus go cheap rate of 7p from 2330 to 0530hrs.
I have not had a summer yet with solar but looking for advice as to the best way to set it up in summer days.
Is there a way to continue...
I know many conventional superchargers are tricky with the Tacan as you end up using 2 bays.
However, I also know that some Tesla superchargers are designed differently, without that issue.
Is there a way of telling?
The last few weeks have been a nightmare.
Car went in for brake hose recall 4-5 w ago. During this they did a software update and replaced coolant punp (noisy during charging)
Get car back and it fine except when I do my first commercial ionity charge 140miles away from home with family in toe...
Switched to this tarrif with cheap leccy for 6hrs at night. I have 2EV’s; the primary car is my non-Porsche which I charge on the octopus app
the Taycan is my secondary car. I want to charge it to 85% in the cheap zone but cannot seem to set up the profile correctly. It keeps charging to 100%...
Kinda annoyed I need the keys every time to release the charging cable.
my Audi has a setting to auto release the cable once charged.
can’t see this on the Taycan. Is it there or not?
Thanks
3w sat in drive untouched.
battery was at 80% now 70%
Cannot open the car. Fob not doing a thing. Lights on fob are bright so the fob battery is fine.
Do I have a dead car.
any thoughts on resuscitation?
So I took a bristle brush to the Alcantara after 5months ownership. Nothing firm, a relatively soft brush, the kind you might polish shoes with.
Seemed to be doing a nice job.
I was stunned at the dust coming off the steering wheel. A very fine dust. I presume this is just dead skin cells...
got my GTS some months ago for 14% discount.
Went to search system on Porsche UK. Still plenty of tacans for sale.
What intrigued me is they have removed the single click link that took you to the configurator. This was great. Allowed easy viewing of the full retail price.
Now not so easy to...
I signed up to ALK and innodrive on the connect store. Price is £739 for each. Initially it was a 3/12 free trial.
When I went to process full payment there is a box for promo codes.
This implied to me that Porsche do have discounts on these products? Is this the case?
