There is a very familiar thread and there is a Workshop Campaign WNK6 that refers to ‘below specification actuators’. This has caused replacement of specified actuators on the rear OS, rear NS or both. My VIN is not in scope although all the model, variant & PCCB permutations appear to be the...
Hi Murph
I’m looking into this very carefully.
Interestingly the Porsche Warranty covers every component in the car against manufacturing defect.
In the UK pre-Sept 2025 extended warranty, there is a defined ‘exhaustive wear and tear list’ for exclusions due to wear and tear.
This list has...
So that’s how I started.
However, in a drum-in-disc electronic parking brake system like the Taycan’s, the parking brake operates using internal brake shoes that press against a cylindrical drum surface formed within the “hat” of the rear brake disc, separate from the outer disc surface used by...
Hi,
I have an 'in-flight' issue with a Porsche Centre and Porsche GB and would appreciate trading notes with anyone who has had similar.
In short: the EPB on my Turbo S Cross Turismo has run out of possible adjustment due to 'wear & tear'. This apparently requires replacement of the EPB...
This is a really good question. And this is my thinking…
- if you buy extended warranties then you don’t really care
- in the UK, Porsche will sell extended warranties until the car is 15 years old or until the car has done 125,000 miles (at the start of the warranty)… whichever happens first...
I thought I’d share my positive experience and views on battery life.
I have a Taycan Turbo S Cross Turismo. It was one of the first, registered March 2022, and I’ve done 84,000 miles in 10 countries.
in December I asked my dealer to perform an official Porsche SOH assessment on the HV Battery...
90 min drive each way. Fortunately they do the driving. My wife thinks it’s a Friday car. If we lived in the US it would have been replaced under the ‘lemon laws’.
Yes. For warranty repairs:
Repeated charging system faults, including:
Passenger-side and driver-side charge port failures
Charge port door / locking actuator (solenoid) failures (replaced more than once)
“Charging door impaired” and “impaired charging” warnings
Interrupted and failed AC...
hi
I’ve had my 2022 Turbo S Cross Turismo from new. It’s done 80,000 miles in 20 countries and I use it daily. It’s a beast, a real apex predator and comfortable. Feels like 3 cars in 1.
Real maintenance costs are low: servicing & tyres. I have extended the warranty (£3,000 for 3 years). This...
Maybe this is the answer on whether you should get an extended warranty or not….
- will a £5,000+ bill for warrantable repairs cause you a problem (emotional or financial)? If not, then don’t buy the warranty.
- has your car had some, many, several warranty claims in the original warranty...
Hi
it’s probably been said before, but: you’d be crazy not to have a Porsche Extended Warranty and if you can afford it, the 3yr version which has the lowest unit cost. The logic is that one warranty repair can save you the warranty cost.
I have owned my Taycan since new in March 2022. It is...
Thanks.
I’m retired but on my second family so boys are at high/secondary school so lots of commuting with them over tremendous roads (eg the Cat and Fiddle pass).
Best car I’ve had so far, but also the one with the most warranty work (about 30 I’d guess so far).

hi
I have a Turbo S Cross Turismo, registered March ‘22 and just about to break 55,000. That’s over 2,000 a month. It’s been in 9 different countries. I love it and it drives like new.
All the best
Matt
I've driven my Turbo S Cross Turismo 52,000 miles in 2 years in 9 countries including France and never had a problem with the Porsche Charging network. On the few occasions that the Porsche card doesn't work I just use a credit card. FastNed, like Ionity is excellent: fast, starts and remains...
Hi,
I use the OEM Pirelli Zeros on 21">7C and the OEM Pirelli Zeroes M&S on 20" <7C. I've been getting 10-12,000 miles per tyre. My Taycan is a Turbo S Cross Turismo and driven to enjoy (e.g. 52,000 in 2 years in 9 countries).
I'd thought this was OK. A bit worse that my previous Audi R8 v10...
I have a ‘22 Turbo S with 50,000 miles collected inn8 different countries. Feels exactly the same as the first day.
There has not been a single day when it hasn’t made me smile. I’ve driven most other Taycans and I’ve missed the performance.
My previous car was an R8 V10 Plus and its...
