I bought a CTEK lithium suitable trickle charger in case my 12 volt battery went dead. I keep in my trunk and it's karma keeps the 12 volt battery happy apparently.

As mentioned the brake fluid change is at two year intervals as is the cabin air filter change. I did this myself and showed the receipts to my dealer. I paid them for an inspection of the car which resulted in a reset of the service indicator. It cost me $179.

I received my $600 check today. I had to sign for it and luckily I was home. My initial submission was Feb 28, 2024 but they wanted a better receipt for the Juice Box I had purchased last year. I resubmitted the better receipt on March 20, 2024.

The best deal I have found for Taycan cabin air filters is from Pelican Parts ( less than $20 ). I haven't found an independent Porsche shop near me that has a PIWIS tester that can reset the service reminder. What I did was do the work myself and save the receipts and paid my dealer for an...

I had mice twice in my Taycan on the front inverter. Thankfully they didn't do any noticeable damage. What I did was glue a sticky trap to the front inverter. The ultimate solution was to sell my Spyder and put the Taycan in the garage.

My 2020 4S with all season Goodyear Touring tires I've only been getting 12K miles out of the front tires. The rears lasted 23K miles. I stayed with the same tire so had no issues just changing a pair at a time. The car was aligned after each tire replacement at an independent shop for less than...

No. I bought my replacement home charger last year. I struggled to recover an adequate receipt for the Juice Box which I got from Costco for $499 + tax.

I stayed with 19 inch wheels on my 2020 4S for range and a bit more pot hole protection. To each there own.

You send a copy of the receipt for your replacement charger, your VIN, proof of ownership ( I sent a copy of my car's title ), your name and address and whether you want a check or a service credit coupon. You email this to [email protected]. The check takes longer to receive.....

I did the 22 KW Charger Upgrade on my 2020 4S mostly to get Plug and Charge capability. As mentioned it is helpful when you encounter a more potent Level 2 destination charger. As far as costs go the 22 KW charger kit is $2K. My dealer never did this update before and charged me $5400. To make...

I bought a plug in Juice Box, paying $499 + tax from COSTCO. I sent in my recall request for the $600 reimbursement. My son got the hardwired Juice Box version previously and he had no issues.

The Taycan maintenance schedule wants the pads changed at six years due to possible corrosion due to lack of use. An inspection ought to work to see if the pads have corrosion. I stayed with the iron brake setup in my 4S to reduce maintenance costs.

I had an issue with my 2020 4S where we got no heat on the passenger side but had heat on the driver's side. It turned out to be a failed servo motor that moved one of the flaps in the system. They had to remove the dash to get to it. It did throw an error code that lead them to the problem. I'm...

I've had two flats on my 2020 4S with the standard 19 inch wheels. Since I bought an 18" used Cayenne spare tire and a jack off of Amazon I haven't had a flat thankfully. The all season tires on the front have worn out twice (12K miles each time ) and the rear tires once (23K miles ).

My spare is 195/75-18. Be mindful of your caliper size. I have a 2020 4S with red calipers. If you have PSCB or PCCB there might be interference with 18 inch spare. It was about $350 delivered.

I wedge a 2 X 8 scrap of wood to keep the spare forward in the trunk.

I have a 2020 4S with red brake calipers. After two flats I bought an 18 inch Cayenne collapsible spare tire from a wrecking yard. I then got a scissors jack from Amazon that fits perfectly in the jacking sockets of the Taycan. The spare takes up a fair amount of space in the trunk but the...

I installed a stick on sunglass holder from Amazon in the storage area behind the central screen. I didn't select the storage option on my car. It also hold loose change effectively.

I hope the new Taycan will allow fresh air in the cabin with AC off. I'll continue to roll down the windows.....
