    No Heater (HVAC) - No fast charge!

    Ugh starting last Thursday, I'm having the same problem. The cabin heater and the battery heater are both kaput. This means that I'm going to have to take my son's Subaru on a road trip on Tuesday. Otherwise, I'd be looking at an extra 4 hours of charging during my single-day trip. Boo! I've...

    Device is not supported; Energy demand too high

    Good idea! I'll give that a try and I'll report back. BTW, I don't usually use wireless charging, and I don't put my phone in the center console. But it could have gone haywire on its own. If anyone else has ideas, send them my way.

    Device is not supported; Energy demand too high

    Has anyone else seen this error message before? About 10 days ago, I started seeing this error message just out of the blue. (There was no precipitating event or change that caused it to start appearing. It just showed up as I was driving down the road.) For the first two days, it...

    What a day... collected Mamba 4S CT today.

    That looks great! (And familiar!) Mine is a 2021 Taycan 4S in Mamba Green, with all black interior, with the mamba green deviated stitching, and interior details in body color (It's really just trim on the doors). And I love it! I was a little concerned that these choices would be too bold...

    Which exterior colour did you choose?

    I have a Mamba Green Taycan, and I live just outside of Seattle (eastside). And yes, everyone LOVES the color. I get a lot of comments on it! (And I love it, too!)

    Function on Demand Updates - Not Updating

    I have a 2021 Taycan 4S. It's wonderful! About a week ago, I purchased ALK (Active Lane Keep) as a "Function On Demand" from Porsche's site. The purchase went off without a hitch. But my car hasn't updated. I've read the instructions they sent (Wait at least 10 minutes, and look for an Update...

    Charging dock

    You can flip the socket over yourself. Just turn off the breaker, open the box, and there should be enough slack in the wires for you to turn it 180 degrees and close it back up. I was able to flip mine over without any trouble. Just make sure you turn off the breaker first! (And if you’re not...

    Charging Dock Installation Details

    I had to go buy lag bolts at the hardware store so I could be sure that they were going into the wall studs far enough. I think the ones I got were 3/8" diameter and either 3" or 3.5" long.

    PMCC Server authentication error

    Here's my update: About three weeks ago, I had an appointment with my dealer so I could show them the problem with the PMCC. At first, they didn't understand the issue, but they called me into the service bay to show them what was going on. Once I demo'ed it for them, they agreed that it was a...

    Discount on custom build

    I got 2.5% off of my custom 4S just by asking. (Ordered in November, delivered in May) I tried to get more, but was unsuccessful. I was pleased with 2.5% on a custom build. This was my first car from this dealership, and they're about 2 hours drive away. The dealer closest to our home was a...

    PMCC Server authentication error

    There is no pairing to reset. That’s the problem. Before I started this thread I contacted my dealer and their service dept. to see if they had any solutions. I’ve asked to have the PMCC replaced. I’ve been hoping to figure out a solution in the meantime, but I’m out of ideas. We’ll see what...

    PMCC Server authentication error

    Good guess, but sadly no. There’s no User Code on the back of the unit. There’s only the serial number of the unit, but that’s not enough for pairing.

    PMCC Server authentication error

    Good idea! I hadn't previously done, that so I tried it. But I don't have a User Code to enter; I suspect the user code is generated by the PMCC during the pairing process. So I tried entering the ID of my PMCC (hoping that may also work), and (of course) that didn't work. I got this error...

    PMCC Server authentication error

    It sounds like our problems are the same. SHN, did you ever figure out a fix to this problem?

    PMCC Server authentication error

    The problem is that I never get a chance to pair the charger with my User ID. During initial setup (and after a factory reset), the charger says it's connected to WiFi, but then it immediately shows an error saying that it can't get to the internet, and the QR code is never presented. If I...

    PMCC Server authentication error

    Update: The PMCC wouldn't let me enter my account credentials, so I factory reset it, and then walked through configuration again. Normally when you configure the PMCC, it connects to the wireless network and then immediately asks for account information (or presents a QR code that links the...

    PMCC Server authentication error

    I thought that was it, but I've typed my password in a kajillion times. I'll try again (more carefully this time!) to see if that's the problem. Thanks!

    PMCC Server authentication error

    I have the Porsche Mobile Charger Connect. I get this error every single time I turn it on. Once I click OK, the PMCC charges my car just fine. As you can see, it's properly connected to WiFi. My dealer said he hasn't been able to find anything out about this error, and my internet searching...

    Porsche recalls 43K Taycan and Cross Turismo due to possible powertrain shutdown / loss of power

    I ran into this error the other day. I wonder if it's the same problem. Fortunately, I was sitting at a red light when it happened. Once this error appeared, the accelerator did nothing. Changing "gears" (D/N/R) did nothing. I turned off the car using the power button, then I turned it back...

    Buying from an out of state/region dealership

    Two years ago we got my wife's Panamera at a local dealership, and the entire experience was terrible. We have a long list of complaints. She loves the car, though. So when it came time for me to order my Taycan, I worked with a dealer about 100 miles away. It's been super dreamy so far. No...
