Genuine Porsche Taycan Spyder 21" Alloy Wheels & Tyres Aurum Gold GTS Forged with new Pirelli P Zeros
I bought these wheels and tyres for my Porsche Taycan, but due to health I didn't use the car much last year so only did about 1000 miles on them. They are in pretty much as new condition, with...
Where is everyone getting their insurance from these days in the UK? I'm almost 50 and struggling to get a quote under £1000, and a lot of insurance companies won't even entertain my business (Direct Line). Clean license held since I was 17, I did have a car stolen a few years ago but have owned...
Interested to read this, as I've got a sensor go faulty myself (same sensor in the other side of the bumper). It looks like there is a stonechip on it which I think is causing the problems.
I could take the car into Porsche but it's nearly an hour away, they want to keep it a few days and can't...
The PCM doesn't know anything about the car colour/wheels, the app gets the metadata from the VIN, so theoretically could be changed by Porsche. But good luck getting it done, when I had an i3, I had a special edition one and the car showed up as a 4 series under a cover in the BMW Connect app...
Having owned a Tesla and Polestar 2, I'm really put off OTA updates. With the Tesla, one update caused a fault which meant the alarm would go off, plus another ruined the auto lights. With the Polestar, where do I start! My wife and kids got locked out after one update and luckily I was only 5...

Taycan GTS 21" RS Spyder wheels
The rears I got were originally satin black, and the fronts were black gloss diamond cut.
The place I got them refinished/satin powder coated is in the UK, a local...
I wasn't keen on the wheels on my 4S so have been buying the odd GTS wheel here and there, once I had 4 I got them all refinished in satin aurum gold with a diamond cut face. Pretty pleased with the results on my gentian blue car!
Porsche put 'diesel' and 'electric' badges on cars, I guess because it's different to the normal petrol cars they are more known for selling. It's usually not 'people' putting them on, it's the manufacturer.
I've had quite a few EVs (i3, Polestar 2, Model 3, Q4 Etron) and quite a few near misses from people not looking/hearing my cars, especially on the school run. So I tend to use it in built up areas.
Are you sure they were talking about a Taycan? I fitted one last week and loads of people here have, and it's just plug and play.
The only issue I had is that I found it hard to pop the middle section back on, and there is still a slight gap if you look closely behind the mirror. I need to pop...
Can you not retrofit the 22 kW charger and plug and charge now anyway?
