    Summer time m/kW

    My commute to work is short at 6 miles on twisty 60 mph narrow roads with possibly 1 temp [for over 1 year!] traffic light stop for approx 30 seconds to 1 min. In the winter my J1.2 does circa 1.5 m/kW. In the recent hot weather it's doing circa 3.2 m/kwh. Pleasantly surprised.

    Zun Sport grills

    After thinking about it for far too long, I took the plunge and bought a set of Zun Sport grills last week. https://www.zunsport.com/porsche-taycan-outer-grille-set They needed a little persuasion to fit - the inners needed a very firm push - maybe the J1.2 aperture is slightly different. But...

    Hi, I need to do a long journey and take a large EV. Can I use my Porsche Charge Card to get relatively cheap fast charging at a UK Porsche Dealership's EV charger for a non Porsche car? Thank you.

    Today's dealership visit

    Sat in the dealers for a while this morning - thankfully not EV issue related - and Euro Car Spares van arrived with a parts delivery (are they now OEM supplier?) :) Most interesting car here today - and better than anything Porsche has released in several years - was this classic:

    Where did they fit your rear dashcam - ST & CT?

    Curious to know where Porsche fitted your rear Porsche Dashcam. I've not paid any attention to mine since I got the car, but needed some footage and found it impossible to link to the cameras via my phone. Whilst struggling with the app - which has proved unfathomable so far, it simpy refuses...

    J1.2 Pollen Filter

    Hi, PCM has told me I need to replace the cabin filter. I don't have the patience to make what will be a 3 hours round trip to my nearest dealer. It should be a very easy DIY job, but I want to make sure I get the right part. J1.2 4S ST, RHD. Anyone done this - do you have a link for the...

    J1.2 - "12 Volt battery low" message

    Damn - got home tonight and saw the dreaded "12 Volt battery low" message. J1.2 4s ST. Main battery was on 75% charge. Most driving is 6 mile commutes with the odd 30 miler each week or two. Called Porsche Assist but it's out of hours so there was no specialist to take the call and the Porsche...

    Reversing Light Mod

    Hi. Reversing the j1.2 ST is as bad as the 1.1 CT at night when there is no street lighting. The only way to get better visibility is from the brake light, so hardly ideal. Has anyone implemented a a decent workaround / additional LED light?

    Tyres – never had this issue before on any car …

    I keep a close eye on my tyres. Tyre pressure values are always displayed and tyres pumped up when needed, and I check the depth every month or so on the outer, middle and the inner grooves. However, it’s hard to check the very inner edge, so I was shocked to see a 6cm split which looked ready...

    TPMS update to use j1.1 wheels on a j1.2 - what did you do?

    I've read a few comments about j1.1 TPMS not being compatible with a j1.2 car. I want to get my winter wheels ready several weeks before I need to fit them. Has anyone had j1.2 compatible sensors fitted to j1.1 wheels? What route did you take - Porsche dealer quoted £600+ or go Amazon /...

    Anyone else track the value of their car on WBAC or similar?

    I traded-in my j1.1 MY 2022 4s CT a few months ago. I had several WBAC email valuations beforehand and still get them. Interesting to see the changes over time. 2024 Sep, £46,800 2024 Nov, £51,485 2025 Mar, £44,460 2025 May, £40,550 2025 Jun, £32,110 2025 Jul 11, £43,925 2025 Jul 17, £44,770...

    PCM charging availability - never knew this existed

    Driving to Manchester today and noticed the PCM is now showing charging station power and availability. Not sure if this is new feature or was always there. And I have no idea how accurate the number and availability of chargers is. But great to see.

    GTS valuation guide

    2022 GTS ST. This was sold on Collecting Cars yesterday for £57,000. https://collectingcars.com/for-sale/2022-porsche-taycan-gts-sport-turismo-2? Great colour and spec. Huge depreciation but sold for several £k more than I thought it would. Which is good news for Taycan owners.

    First long drive in my 4s ST j1.2 [UK]

    Did my first long drive in my ST 4s this weekend. Overall it was a great experience. And it was very comfortable too. RANGE A full charge would have delivered just under 300 miles, 200 on the motorway. Not wanting to dip below 10% remaining, meant an effective range of circa 260 miles from a...

    Done it - 4S CT J1.1 swapped for 4S ST J1.2

    Done it - swapped from a MY22 4S CT to a j1.2 4S ST. Initial thoughts: Oak Green is amazing. 7% more range on my return journey in the j1.2 verses the outgoing journey min the j1.1. Different time of day and traffic, so not a scientific test. 3.2m/kWh in j1.2. Indicated range seems to be...

    Anyone switched from 4S J1.1 to J1.2 - opinions

    Hi, Looking to swap from a J1.1 to a J 1.2 4S Turismo. Anyone done this? What are your thoughts besides the 1.2 being more ugly at the front? Is the 1.2 better in every respect? (Naturally spec matters, but too many options to list here - both have full leather, RAS, matrix lights, BOSE...

    Best roof bars

    Hi - what roof bars do people use / recommend for a Turismo with roof rails? I need a t-track one for the roof box and bike rack that I already have.

    Inside tire edge wear - alignment recommendations

    Hi, Cleaning my summer wheels for refitting next week and noticed that all 4 summer tyres are quite heavily worn on the inside edge. Tyres have been used on the car for 10 months since they were new, and only covered 6,000 miles. Rest of the tyre still have circa 5-6mm left. Any recommendations...
