Problem started at the weekend when I went on a trip. Set the sat nav only to notice that it had lost its route. Then noticed it was re-booting after about 5 minutes. If no destination is set then the maps work fine. But if I set a destination then after about 3-4 minutes the map freezes then...

Hi. Anyone else get this? I usually view the forum on my iPad and open new tabs in the background. More recently I am having a preview of the text in tabs that I have opened appear and block my view of some topics. The only way to clear it is to reload the page. Happens in Safari and Edge so I...

I rang to book my car in for an MOT and was told there is a recall campaign to replace the passenger side electric heater. I was told it is a new campaign so I might not have a letter about it yet. I didn’t even know there was an electric heater on the passenger side! My heater was replaced a...

My wife was complaining that my rear left door didn’t shut properly. On investigation, the window was not dropping the normal 5mm on opening, so was catching on the trip when the door was closing. When I was next in the car, I checked the window worked but noted that it had forgotten its end...

I had a problem last night arriving at an Ionity charger fairly late with 28% charge. I tried to plug it in for plug and charge, didn’t work. Charge port impaired message initially. Then tried Porsche charge card with no success. Moved to another charger and tried the Porsche card again. Still...

We have been with Octopus Intelligent for a year now. We have paid Octopus £384.65 and have a balance of £179.09. After paying the year's standing charges (£199.64) we have paid £5.92 for the electricity. All 11,500kWh of it. How on earth has that worked out? Last May we had 19 solar panels...

My car has lost its connection to the Porsche servers - again. Last happened a few months ago. Last time the Porsche app people told me to factory reset the car which turned out to be a real nuisance. Ended up getting reset by OPC. Anyone else having trouble at the moment? I know I could try...

My Taycan has been in due to a heater failure and while there they did the usual “health check”. The front tyres are wearing evenly but the rear tyres have both worn disproportionately on the outer edges. Such that they are recommending replacement at just over 7000 miles. To me, it looks like...

I am amazed that people haven’t yet been speculating that an EV started the fire, but it looks like it was a diesel. ICE cars - dangerous things. Should be banned!

I use a Porsche mobile charger to charge my wife’s RR hybrid every night. It runs on about 10A for 6 or less hours. Started in January. Because my 13A outdoor socket is at the back of the house I ran an extension lead and tacked it to the wall. I made sure it was rated 13A when I bought it...

I am not aware of any updates on the car, but since my iOS update I can now get in the car, have it connect to wireless car play (automatically) but the PCM stays on the radio. It hasn’t done this since I bought the car and I know is a source of irritation to many. So perhaps Apple tweaked the...

Posting on the UK forum as I don’t think many other countries use Andersen. But the moderator might move it to charging! I have had an Andersen EVSE since before I got my Taycan 18 months ago and have recently got some solar panels with a battery system. I knew the Andersen did solar and...

Hello all. A question for the UK members. I know there have been many threads on charging and EVSEs. However I have a specific question. Do any of you have have an EVSE that does 7kW but that you can manually limit/change the maximum output to whatever you want such as 3kW? I am moving to an EV...

Hi all. I am planning attending a conference at the ACC in Liverpool. Does anyone know how secure the newish Royal dock car park is? There isn’t much info online but it does appear to have >1000 CCTV cameras (both worrying and reassuring at the same time) and a 24h security guard. Would my...

Just had a great session at PEC Silverstone this morning however rhe point of this was to flag up the charging if you go in your Taycan. Out the front in the customer car park are 2 rapid chargers (look like 350kW) and about 6 mobile chargers connect mounted on pedestals, 2 of which don’t work...

When I first got my Taycan there were lots of subscriptions included. Mostly they seemed to relate to PCM and app related functions. And obviously the 3 year Ionity subscription that is pretty useless to me because there aren’t any Ionity charge stations nearby. My question is - what stops to...

It is interesting to see where the insulation is/isn’t when preheating. Looks pretty good except of course for the glass and a small area on the bonnet - maybe where the heat pump is. Or the 12V battery

Hi all. I think I have read about this issue, but maybe not quite the same. It happened on my 4S both before and after the uPdate and now on the Turbo. I can occasionally get in the car and the main PCM screen gets stuck on “Porsche”. It doesn’t matter how long I leave it, it doesn’t move onto...

TLDR – the Turbo is even more awesome that the 4S Back in July 2021 I test drove and ordered a 4S. In November I heard that the wait had grown to >1 year for a 4S and about 1 year for a Turbo. Thinking that this would keep residuals high, I ordered a Turbo before the 4S had come. I collected...

My 4S is going to be available for sale soon. It currently needs a wash and it is raining, so pictures will follow however it looks the same as it did when it was delivered in January - HERE - and scroll down to January 11th. Spec is as per this link: http://www.porsche-code.com/PNUDT8D6...
