My Porsche app stop updating on May 13th at 4:30pm. Now it’s May 15th & still no current status of vehicle… Is this a Porsche server issue?

Intermittently I get the message “Privacy Mode Activated” in the Porsche App but neither my wife or I have even touched the vehicle for days. Why all of a sudden does it go into privacy mode and the only way to get it turned off is to do it from the PCM inside the car?

Today I returned to my garage with 41% SOC but 8 hours later my SOC dropped to 34%. The only thing I noticed was the Direct Charging was in the on position. Is it possible this is the reason my HV battery drained 7% in 8 hours? I’ve never had my SOC drop by more than 1% over 2-3 weeks let alone...

I have been charging exclusively at home with my 120V charger since the 3 year free EA charging expired on Jan 5th, 2025. My total range at 100% in range mode has been around 225 for the past 14 months. I typically only charge to 80-85% once every week or two since we only have driven our 2021...

I just found out the Porsche Premium Charging Service was terminated almost a year ago. So now the only way to get a discount on charging with EA or any other 3rd party charging entity you cannot just plug in your Taycan to have the charging station recognize your vehicle and begin charging at...

Why does privacy mode activate on its own intermittently? When I am away and it goes into “privacy mode” I have no way to see my vehicle location or the SOC status. It is really annoying as well as a security risk since the only way to turn off “privacy mode” from what I understand, you must...

For the first 2 years I charged exclusively with DC fast chargers. I started with 225 mile range which dropped to 205 miles after 2 years. Now after the last year where I have only charged in my garage with the Porsche 120V AC charger my range has recovered completely back to 225 miles of...

I just had my 2021 Taycan Porsche 120V charger give me charging errors which appears to be whenever the voltage is 114V to 115V AC. The charger has worked fine for the last 7 months being used about 15-20 hours per week. I dropped off the charger to my dealer to have them test it out. Has...

I was wondering if there is any data to suggest it’s a bad idea to leave my Taycan plugged in to my 120V Porsche charger whenever it is in my garage? I haven’t it set to stop charging at 85% and usually don’t plug it back in until SOC goes below 40% but my wife hates waiting until below 40% and...

I have been unable to use the Porsche app to see my battery SOC or location for over 24 hours. My service advisor told me this is a Porsche server issue and nothing to do with my Taycan. Has anyone else experienced this type of app failure? I’m wondering if this is a global failure of the app...

I just noticed both of my side mirrors on my 2021 CPO have the exact same cracks on the side of the housing closest to the windows. There doesn’t appear to be any impact to cause these cracks to be in exactly the same place. I initially thought they were just the seam of the mirror housing when...

I just noticed the tread warranty on the original equipment Pirelli PZero tires is 25000 miles. These tires actually have a 50000 mile warranty on vehicles where the front & rear tires are the same size & can be rotated. I’m finding that my rear tires will be lucky to get to 15000 but my fronts...

I just got a message that the Porsche Connect app will be expiring shortly. When I click on “options” is says it is free for 3 years and then $319/year thereafter. I’m not sure if this means it free for the next 3 years and $319 thereafter. I’ve only had my Taycan CPO for 13 months so I’m not...

I’m a bit surprised Porsche says to never plug or patch a tire on the Taycan. I was told there is no spare since they include tire sealant & air compressor in the event you get a leak. Seems a bit convenient so Porsche can sell a new tire whenever a tire with a nail or screw in the tread which...

My 2021 Taycan base RWD lift mechanism is not working properly. It automatically raises up when I go over 70mph and then stays up until I go below 10mph when it drops automatically. As soon as I drive it above 70mph again it goes back up so I’m concerned the aerodynamics of my Taycan at speed...

I was planning to use a 12V refrigerator/freezer which uses 45watts in my trunk on long trips. Since the main battery will keep the 12v lithium battery charged as long as the SOC is above 50% does that mean I can leave it plugged in and cooling when the car is off and possibly over night as...

I was told there is no 12v outlet in the 2021 Taycan Trunk but I see on the forum that someone referred to a 12v outlet in the trunk he tried to connect a trickle charger to. I know that won’t work but I’m hoping to plug in a small 12v refrigerator/freezer in the trunk when I’m transporting...

I was wondering why the charging infrastructure in Texas is so bad compared to California except for Tesla. I just realized the price of gas in Texas averages between $2.50 & $3.25 a gallon and as an example my Taycan gets about 2.5 miles/kw which is equivalent to 25 miles per 10kw. At charging...

I just set up my Porsche 120V charger with a timer so it will only charge from 12 midnight to 4am. I plugged in the charger to the Taycan which has the base battery. The vehicle started at 152 miles when I first plugged the charger into the charging port at 9pm and set the charger timer to begin...
