    Software update hasn’t fixed 12v battery issue (update) confirmed as main battery fault)

    My 2022 Taycan RWD faulted today, while my wife was driving in rush hour in DC on the beltway. She was not happy but made it to the shoulder safely. She had it towed to Porsche Bethesda, and I asked her to mention this MY20/21 problem to the service advisor. He said there are no recalls for...

    Going From 22 to 23. Would You Do It?

    We opted out of the pano roof because we like the way the sheet metal looks without it, giving the car a bit more of a sleek feel. So for me, not worth it.

    Help! Is this a good deal? 2020 Taycan 4s

    If you're buying from a Porsche dealer, you have a clear CarFax, and you like the car, buy it. It looks beautiful and if you had fun on the test drive, you found a good car. The big battery and Premium package are money!

    To decal or not..

    I like how this came out.

    Side decals

    This is the other side. My decals were shipped from Canada. I'm not sure Porsche sells them. These are the only options I could find on the internet. The decals are 3M material so they should last a long time, especially since we garage the car at night.

    Major problem needs to be fixed

    In a safe place, open the windows and do launch control with the sport sound on. Too cool!

    Stupid question ref WiFi hotspot

    I want to connect my BlackVue dashcam to my wifi so it uploads to the cloud and allows real-time viewing. Is the Verizon wifi always on?

    POLL: Is your Taycan missing the Charging Planner

    I found that my planning improved when I updated my desired charge at arrival. The default is too low.

    First 1000 miles - prioritization of features for buyers & some remaining mysteries for owners

    The recent software update finally enabled the cockpit screen navigation in my RWD. Have you tried that display? The big map is nice and now in my sight line. It augments the HUD well and is a nice alternative to the right hand cockpit nav data display or center console display.

    Subtle "lunging" behavior at stoplight.

    I think its from the transition from regenetative braking to regular braking. Essentially the motors stop providing resistance but because you're at low speed, it's subtle. It's also why you can roll forward or backwards at lights and stop signs on inclines. Theres no resistance when stopped...

    Never charge to 100% ?

    In DC, too. I charge to 85% unless I need the extra range for a trip or extra driving. Your temperature option is for the cabin. What makes you comfortable? I do 70° F. The manual (you can access it using My Porche app) describes some best practices for charging.

    App says service due

    Same here. I think it's a minor recall causing the need to go in. Try and make a service appointment and you should see why Porsche wants you in as you select reasons for your visit.

    Advice on best way to sell 2021 4S

    DC is a hot market. Sell it privately on Autotrader and you'll avoid broker or dealer fees/costs. If the KBB blue book value is close to your asking price, list it and hold the price. People will try and lowball you but in the end you'll get a fair market price. I recently sold my BMW to...

    Reverse charging

    Does anyone have insight as to Porsche's intentions to enable reverse charging? I'd rather not purchaee a Powerwall while I've got this great battery in the garage.

    Innodrive has new Tesla type behavior and graphics

    You see this predictive behavior when you're using navigation (Porsche, not Google or Apple) and innodrive together.

    Which EV-related stocks have you invested in?

    Ok. You have the car and you clearly have money since you bought a Taycan. If you're obsessed with all things EV like me, what related companies do you invest in? Today I put some cash into EVGO and CHPT, both of which I think are about to take off. Opinions and ideas for other gems in the...
