Took a trip to China and Japan with my kids to celebrate a HS graduation and start of college. Stumbled onto some EV fun.
NIO is totally cool, I may have cried a little when I watched a normal car owner swap a battery in less than 4 minutes… and it didn’t cost them $50k!! It was less exciting...
I rarely charge to 100%, recently I did by mistake (turned on direct charging while detailing inside)… and without regen the brake feel is very soft.
My 4S had steel brakes and it didn’t feel soft. This is a Turbo S with PCCB .
Anyone else notice the brakes feel soft when regen isn’t kicking...
I have black wheels currently, and black calipers, considering getting them painted gold or a silver… before I put them back on.
Thoughts?
And are the gold seen online neodyne or atrium? Want to get center caps that match either way so sticking with oem colors.
I bought a set of 20inch wheels online because I had almost new 20 inch winter tires from my MY20 4S that the new Turbo S replaced. The 20s came with all seasons that still had about 75% of their life left so running those initially.
The black Mission E did grow on me and I will switch back to...
I have a MY24 Turbo S with PCCBs and Mission E wheels…which I love but prefer the 20 inch wheel ride better. I did some research before buying it to see about getting 20 inch tires and wheels. It looked like I could. However now what I am finding is Porsche Taycan Sport Aero wheels and tires are...
I was configuring a few things on my new to me CPO and was surprised some of the software builds were from 2023, I think my old MY20 4S had newer software but I forgot to take a picture before I sold it,
What hardware and software version do the J1.1 owners have?
When porsche builds a buy back offer is the starting point for market or wholesale as value basis?
I am weighing options to get out of J1 and move to J1.2 around the battery recall uncertainty and plan :(
Don’t want to ruin it, but past 6 trips over this year have been solid, today was no exception!
Just enough time to get a coffee , use the bathroom and back on the road.
Past week my Taycan has felt very stiff even in normal mode. Anyone experience this?
It still changes mode, raises and lowers but the stiffness is very noticeable and different in Normal than it had been.
Also seems there is some jarring/rattle from somewhere.
i was driving my sons car to pick him up and this popped up and worked while driving!!!
more than a map update took about 12 minutes.
I disabled the auto engine shutoff,,, I didn’t fully trust the software :). But it worked well.
Took a quick road trip to test out a Turbo GT. More power than I need ?.. active ride is pretty cool. And the car is gorgeous.
I didn’t think I would like the green color but it is stunning in person.
Personally I prefer a leather steering wheel, and the 14 way seats. Also I think the...
Looking to get some work done on my 4S, and this time Chicago aligns better than Minneapolis. Noticed Porsche Exchange isn’t too far from the office I would be visiting.
anyone use them? Experience? Recommendations or warnings?
Swapped my older iPhone for 16 pro… tried to plugin to usb to charge and it says the device is asking for too much power and isn’t supported. Anyone else see this ?
