I happened to notice this option buried in the settings. I haven't seen it work yet.
According to AI:
Porsche2X is an intelligent, connected feature in Porsche vehicles that communicates with compatible municipal traffic lights. It provides actionable V2X (Vehicle-to-X) data on your dashboard...
I have the Active Parking feature, but I can't figure out how it's supposed to work.
I also have never seen a steering wheel icon on the app, which is supposed to allow "summon" style backing out for you in tight spots.
I know I have the feature, it's on my sticker.
My Smart Lift feature has completely disappeared.
I can still manually lift, but it no longer offers to save the location, and it never auto lifts either.
I saw some people say rebooting the PCM fixed this after taking an online update. I don’t have a reboot gesture on J1.2 - anyone else?
I noticed with mild concern that my preferred shop now has the dreaded UVEye scanner.
I'm sure most of us remember this device from this legendary thread...
Here’s my deal. On cold mornings I get an irritating rattle from the oval LCD dashboard. If I pull on the right edge, it stops.
The fix here is obvious; tighten things up and/or pad with felt.
I took it in this morning to have a Porsche shop fix it and of course, it stopped happening on the...
I am very happy with the clean look, more so than I expected to be.
Plus those things would have accumulated crud over the years and been hard to clean.
This bugs me.
Watch the way the green "waves of power" animation jerks and restarts with every rate change.
Then watch how it's steady and smooth in the central display.
I've got a new 2025 Taycan, PSCBs, and I'm hearing a slight scrape/hiss from the wheel while driving.
I believe it to be brake-related as it does get louder when braking.
Shifting to neutral doesn't change it, so it's not drivetrain-related.
It tracks with vehicle motion.
From the research...
I recently sold my 2023 GTS and acquired a new 2025 GTS.
I flew to Ontario (California, not Canada) and drove it back home to Los Gatos.
I was very impressed with the range improvements. Shockingly so.
First, the trip report:
I started the trip with a visit to Starbucks down the road, where...
Interested in feedback from people who have made the move from J1 to J1.2.
Also curious, is ALK still an in-app-purchase buy-in like it was on the old ones?
I've been thinking about the levels of Tesla supercharging support:
✅ - Charging available at Magic Dock Superchargers
✅ - Charging adapter available for Porsche, activated with Tesla app
✅ - My Porsche app can route plan through Superchargers
✅ - Porsche can precondition for superchargers...
Yay. I guess it's my turn.
I was having a great charge at Electrocute America - I rolled in with 15% SoC, preconditioned battery, and a balanced charger site. Boom, 260kW. Nice.
Another car plugged in next to me and it dropped to 177kW. Not so nice.
When I finished up, I powered up the car...
I was telling an EV enthusiast friend that my car was finally cleared of battery concerns and now has software to catch issues.
He chuckled a bit and shared the story of the Chevy Bolt:
April 29, 2021: “Final” recall procedure and software available for 2019 cars (GM N202311731). The same...
Minor Hate - Daily annoyances that make me unhappy
Ingress and egress. I despise getting in and out of this car, something that has only worsened over time. Exacerbating the problem, I have to manually move the wheel forward and seat back when I get out, and reverse when I get in. (I've...
