Parking brake is my guess. I have a similar sound on mine when parking on a slope, not every time but often. Where does the sound come from? J1.2 only has one parking brake actuator on the rear left wheel.

This is interesting, I have a parking brake problem on my J1.2. It very noticeably rolls back on one side when parking on a hill, feels like it's defective but Porsche have tested and confirmed as normal behaviour. As a previous J1.1 owner it feels very wrong (my J1.1 parking brake was rock...

Turn off the speed warning gong. In the UK, since July 2024, all cars must have an audible speed limit warning after every start, very annoying.

In the UK Porsche insurance declined to quote on my Taycan Turbo on the grounds that it was too powerful and too expensive to repair........ they did acknowledge the irony of Porsche branded insurance refusing to offer cover on one of their own vehicles. (I am a low risk profile driver with no...

I like it, hope they build a touring version

I use the Audi geckos, minus the red Audi tag! https://www.audipartsdirect.co.uk/product/audi-gecko-air-freshener-black-85h087009

Sports Chrono essential for me, I change drive modes a lot and the wheel is superb to do this quickly and effortlessly without looking down. Surround parking for better cameras than the standard reverse camera which is truly awful. On my J1.2 I did not option surround view thinking/hoping...

I had this random change in brake behaviour after a service visit, happened wet or dry, completely at random. At low speed coming to a stop the pressure required to make the braking work and stop the car had to be very significantly increased, overshot a few junctions and nearly hit a wall. I...

my dealer has this or similar to get the bottom of noises.

sounds bad and obvious, a drive with a dealer tech should diagnose it? They should have a system like chassisEAR to help diagnose creaks and knocks.

Hi, does anyone know and have a diagram of the parking brake setup for a J1.2 Sport Turismo. Been told J1.2 cars only has one parking brake actuator on one side, instead of two with one on each side, so the J1.2 cars roll back/forward on one side when parking on slopes....... like mine has...

I've just returned a new Cayenne e-hybrid, was glad to get back into my Taycan. The Taycan is so far ahead on build and ride quality, the latter was mostly ruined on the Cayenne by the 22" alloys. I found the hybrid system interesting and was also impressed by the 40+ miles 'real world' range...

This graphic might help this discussion! Note 'shaking' PAR vs standard J1.2 air there is no difference, in every other measure PAR is superior. I have PAR and love it, the car remains flat as pancake when pressing on and is super comfortable on long drives, especially at higher speeds.

I echo Derek's comments. I do a lot of miles, same journeys, and drove 55k miles in my J1.1 4S ST and have covered 29k in my J1.2 Turbo ST, range is c. 30-35% more in the real world in my J1.2. Half of the improvement is the bigger battery and half is the new battery chemistry / improved...

Funny coincidence, my VTS fob somehow unpaired itself from my car last week so is no longer recognised. I get a call from the control centre every time I drive it, very annoying, need to get to dealer.

I went J1.1 4S to J1.2 Turbo. I've made a few posts about it and feel the improvements are worth it for a high miler like me especially the range and charging improvements. The interior is exactly the same, apart for the slicker, snappier and more reliable PCM, so it won't feel very new. If...

I thought exactly the same, RWS on my J1.1 and J1.2 can be a bit too eager at high speed sweepers in my experience, still catches me out from time to time.

Keep in mind this was Porsche's first EV, most traditional manufacturer's first EVs have been sub standard, comparing to ICE cars is not realistic. The service and communication experience is the most disappointing aspect, this should be the easy part, especially for a luxury brand. J1.2 PCM...

it's a lottery in my experience (J1.1 and J1.2) so I don't bother using it
