  1. This is a First For Me - Message from Porsche - Heater

    This is also sent via mail, since I've received both. However, when I checked with the dealer, they said that there's no pending heater replacement for my car.
  2. Removal of driver'side of dash fuse cover (panel facing door)?

    You definitely have to pry pretty aggressively to release the clips.
  3. 4s - 2021 Battery degradation : 84 %

    I've never seen anything like that even when the car was brand spanking new. :)
  4. 4s - 2021 Battery degradation : 84 %

    I rarely use DC Fast Charging, charge at home, and limit to 80%. I have tried rebalancing...
  5. 4s - 2021 Battery degradation : 84 %

    My 2020 Turbo S, in ideal weather, shows about 167 miles on the GOM with 80% charge, which is *much* less than it used to. Anyone seeing similar results?
  6. Squeaking noise from front suspension

    It required replacing the lower control arm and ball joint assembly. About $1700, covered under warranty.
  7. Squeaking noise from front suspension

    I would take the videos and car to a dealer... as I said in a different thread, I had this problem too, and it was definitely a lower control arm/ball joint, and the tech indicated that this is a common issue with Taycans and Panameras...
  8. Squeaking noise from front suspension

    This is very likely the front lower control arm...
  9. Noise from the right front when turning left

    I had a Macan EV loaner last time, too, and thought it was interesting. Certainly more efficient than the Taycan (at least the 2020 one). Electronics were a mix of better and worse (I think the information design on the gauge cluster was cluttered and weird), with unreliable AirPlay connection...
  10. Noise from the right front when turning left

    Ack! Misread - sorry about that! I don't have direct experience with PSCB, just PCCB.
  11. Noise from the right front when turning left

    The ceramic breaks do squeal when they're wet and haven't been used a lot that "trip". It's quite unlikely they're "done".
  12. Noise from the right front when turning left

    My noise was "squeakier", but talking to the tech at the time, he said that both Taycans and Panamera's are prone to ball joint and lower control arm issues. Could be a CV joint, too, of course, given it's happening when you're turning. Either way I'd certainly get it checked out.
  13. Noise from the right front when turning left

    I've got about 55K miles.
  14. Noise from the right front when turning left

    Probably the front lower control arm/ball joint. Mine just failed recently with similar symptoms.
  15. Brake problems in the Rain

    If you have ceramic brakes, they're much worse than steel, initially, in the rain...when they kick in, of course.
  16. <insert colorful metaphor> People Are The Reason EVs Suck

    It's tough to get close there, but you can do it. Be careful plugging in the magic dock adapter: I think that's how I broke the "flap latch" on the DC cover. But at least there's a $25 fix.
  17. <insert colorful metaphor> People Are The Reason EVs Suck

    The point is more that, in these cases, the dealer (eg Hermes) will not sell you a bag, regardless of the amount of money you offer. That is generally true with fixed allocation Porsches, too - you're not going to get a GT3 unless you've already established a relationship with the dealer...
  18. <insert colorful metaphor> People Are The Reason EVs Suck

    The...market for Porsches? Hermès bags? :)
  19. DC ‘fast charge’ flap cover won’t stay open

    I cannot confirm that. It seems likely, given the shared platform, but I don’t know - I just know that the Porsche dealer wanted a Porsche part number. The part numbers are obviously identical save for the prefix.
  20. DC ‘fast charge’ flap cover won’t stay open

    I ordered PAB971 904 A from the dealer - Porsche Westwood. They indicated it should be in around Wednesday of next week. 4KE971904, mentioned elsewhere, is an Audi part number, whereas PAB971904A is the Porsche number.
