Have to go through Porsche dealer? Why not auto glass company with aftermarket? A lot cheaper that’s for sure!
I’m in DFW, Texas if anyone has feedback for sourcing in the area.
Unless you just have to have EV, my 0.02 is BMW M850i or if seriously considering 4S, then M8?.
BMW interiors, the B&W stereo and tech Is much better especially on cost comparative basis. I will say though that driving dynamics and ride quality on 20’s goes to the Taycan and I don’t have air...
Sorry, not trying to be a jerk, but I’ve read or heard this from all German manufacturers and dealers, multiple times.

Ok so thanks for the info about lowering. My car is not and I try to never turn to full lock so I’ll try not to worry about it.
And sure, most things “make sense” to someone…depends on your perspective.
Maybe unreasonable, but pay over $100k for a vehicle and I expect more. If I wanted...
My dealer (Avondale Porsche in Grapevine, Tx) says no parts and no ETA. I’d like to believe they’re not doing a money grab on this and have fixed all their inventory with parts that should’ve gone to their current customers, but that’s likely naive of me.
It’s so inhuman I never would have...
LTE reset at dealer this morning and all is well again..for now although really hope it stays that way. This was not a big deal I guess except that I’ve had the car for only 2 months and it took 5 days to get an appointment.
VW Group seems to struggle more than BMW for example when it comes to...
There are things I like about both gen although I think the turbo is the least attractive in the newest gen. Style in all things is definitely subjective though.
My connect services out for 3 days now. Appreciate all the info in the forum about fuse pulling, but I pulled A11 first for 30 mins, no change then pulled C1 for just a few minutes and did PCM reset, still no change. I now have appointment with dealer for 4/13, but hoping it resolves before I...
Anyone else having an issue the past couple of days? My car will not refresh anything on app or on Porsche.com, even vehicle location is incorrect. Anyone know how to fix?
I am now using Chargepoint Flex EVSE, but everything was fine for first few days using that so not sure how that could be...
Traction control is very good, maybe the best I’ve ever experienced. And the best thing is that the system doesn’t seem to shut off power while maintaining complete control even in wet conditions.
How hot is too hot? We have the mobile charger running at 50% and at the very end of charging the temp of the Porsche mobile charger itself where the wall plug comes out of the top is 97 deg. The 240 plug is 72-74 and the cable is 70-72. Doesn’t seem concerning but this is our first EV so have...
It’s a trendy thing so if not keeping the car too long and you like it, go with it. I’m a hard no personally, but thin it will become regrettable even for those who like it if keeping the car.
Good thing for me my T is a lease. But, yes this current environment sucks for EVs. Would help if the media didn’t blow things out of proportion or mislead on EV stories.
One thing I’ve thought about, with an ICE, to fully realize all the HP and Torque you have to go WOT which even if you’re willing to do will trash the engine, sooner rather than later.
250 torque on EV available immediately =
ICE with 500 torque at 50% throttle, or
ICE with 373 at 2/3 throttle...
We have the PMC that we did initially have set at 100% until we saw the cable recall threads on the forum. After reading about the recall, we changed to 50%. Much more comfortable with the temps of cables at all junctions to avoid high heat and fire risk even though we do have newer home and...
