Just an update in case anyone else has a similar issue to mine.
I have now been informed they have found a broken wire deep inside the body which is stopping the replacement coolant valve from being registered by the car. In order to get to the faulty wire they are having to take the...
Sorry to hear. Customer service seems so different across the different dealerships.
To be fair my OPC have been very good in keeping me up to date. But, just been told today they are having issues and so now there's a chance it "could take weeks". Hoping that's not the case but we'll see.
Just had a call from OPC - turns out it isn't the 12 volt battery, but instead a faulty coolant valve.
Done some research online and it seems this is another common problem due to faulty parts manufactured through covid without any proper quality control.
After having been away for 10 days, I jumped in my Taycan only to find hugely reduced power and the tortoise / turtle symbol. From standstill it was absolutely awful, taking a good 10 seconds to even get up to 5mph. Once I got over this speed it would slowly keep climbing but at any point if I...
Well one thing the rep said to me recently is that Innodrive has to be fully activated by a dealer, meaning OTA for that is effectively impossible! Hence why I'm having to take my car in.
I'll do some more digging when I'm there in a week or so and see if I can get any more about whether FOD...
Irrelevant as long as you don’t want to purchase one of the available functions you didn’t have on the original spec’s car. I know there’s only a few but still. And doesn’t bode well for any new future options being made available - the reason given was because they had had so many problems with...
A Porsche sales rep I spoke to recently said that Function on Demand was also being discontinued.
My Taycan is booked in for a months time due to an issue when downloading the Innodrive option (Innodrive is working fine, but I have a constant warning that it hasn't installed properly) so I will...
The person I spoke to at my local Porsche centre said that FOD is being discontinued because of all the issues they’ve had. Not seen anything at all online about this, but that is what he said.
I decided to take advantage of the 3 months free trial of Active Lane Keeping and Innodrive. I went to the car in the morning and it had an "Update Failed - Vehicle functions restricted" warning showing, stating Innodrive had failed to install. What's odd is that Innodrive looks like it has...
Hi all,
For various reasons I am currently having to use a 3 pin plug to charge for a while. Due to the speed being so slow (around 2.5kw) I'm finding the battery is getting charged to about 60% each night. I'm then driving the car the following day and taking that down to about 30%, and then...
I absolutely love my Taycan Turbo. Granted, I've only had it just over 2 weeks but it is a thing of beauty both inside and out.
I knew the Taycan refresh was coming out but I was happy to get a good deal on the current one, knowing that range is nowhere near as big a thing as everyone seems to...
I still think Porsche are being short sighted with the residual values. Strong residual values translate to strong new car sales and they should be doing something to prop these up, with software updates amongst other things. There will be a hell of a lot of people wary of buying a Taycan II...
That looks fantastic!
Out of interest how did you remove all of the innards of the ash tray? I'd like to have mine with the lid still on but just a completely empty pot when I open it.
I have the ashtray for the cup holder - use it for coins and think it looks great. I just wish it didn’t have such a large block sticking out inside reducing the usable space.
I ended up removing the Smart Charging option and effectively started the process of registering the car and charger again. This seems to have resolved the issue and it's now working correctly thankfully.
Apologies for asking another charging question because I know loads have been asked before, but I've just moved to the Octopus Intelligent tariff yesterday and what I think should be happening isn't.
So, I plugged my car in earlier (using the Porsche mobile charger) and within a few minutes I...
I picked up my new Taycan yesterday - with a healthy discount thankfully, but now wondering if I should have pushed for more!
Anyway, the dealer said to me that they had access to the new Taycan configurator and prices had gone up almost 20%. Most people right now are scared of buying EVs...
