This was my experience with the Gen 1 too ! Heater replacement, unable to charge due to charge port cover not opening and closing - multiple times despite replacement, battery electrical inspection required, unable to charge, 12v failure multiple times when parked.
Gen 1.2 not had a single...
When you go on to 'battery' on armrest console, underneath the large battery showing percentage charge, it has a button that says pre-heat and another next to it that says direct charge. This pre-heat button needs to be turned on otherwise the timers will not work. This is not for pre-heating...
I sold my Gen 1 Turbo S due to reliability and poor charging speeds / range.
Would not buy again, even if amazing value....I value my peace of mind with reliability.
The facelift model is sooooo much better! Faster, better suspension, better handling, better range, better charging speed. This...
J1.2 December 2024. Done 13k miles, only once it failed immediately upon hitting a pothole. I made it to the destination 0.5 miles further on without stopping (was worried about being stranded). Very bizarre bumpy ride for that stretch even on a smooth road. Upon restarting car, warning was...
This weekend, with a battery at about 30 degrees Celsius, I was charging at 314kW until 60% full. J1.2.
Hopwood services, Birmingham, Applegreen chargers...never heard of them before. 360kW chargers.
Ionity never seem to get above about 280kW.
99% charge at start, drove from Aberystwyth to London non-stop, and arrived home with 2%. 1.5 hours small country roads, 1 hour London traffic, rest on motorways.
Does anyone else get this error, where centre console shows current tyre pressure and recommended tyre pressures, and the recommended tyre pressure is different for different wheels?
See attached picture. I'd just changed from full load to partial load for my 21" Summer tyres. My pressures are...
I often snack on a road trip, but apart from cup-holders, where do you guys tend to store trash in the Taycan (no pun intended)? An apple core, banana skin, wrappers, etc. Cup holders and armrest area just become an unsightly mess if not put in some disposable waste area with a lid. Anything...
50k after 18 months of use and lots of miles. But happy as I found the perfect car for me! Yes, its expensive, but I have if for pleasure, not for profit. Hopefully this car is a keeper
I did buy again :-)
J1 had for 18 months, so many problems I ditched it and bought identical J1.2. No Problems with 1.2 - much more comfortable, no faults, superior suspension, better real range, better app connectivity, remembers my settings on the different drive modes, love the raised...
