I called Porsche Support just now and they told me that it 'is a characteristic of the Taycan' that one has to input the pin every time the car is started. True?????

What a PIN? never heard of that...
Has anyone else on here mentioned a PIN every time you start the car?

Valet mode maybe?

That is absolute rubbish,!! I have a Turbo and did not know about such a “feature”.

In addition to the comfort memory settings, you can set up personalized profiles through the PCM (I think it is up to 8 profiles). If you want to use a profile other than the Guest profile, you have the option to require a PIN to access your personal profile. If I recall it prevents others (parking valets, carwash attendants, etc.) from accessing things like the Connect services, Apple music account, etc. that anyone with access can configure through the PCM. For the first week, I had the PIN enabled. However, it became a hassle to enter it ever time I used the car. You have the option to allow your profile to automatically load without a PIN. This is how I have my profile currently set up.

Thanks. That may be the answer I was looking for. I will just try to set up for myself with no pin etc. thanks again.

This. Right here. That’s how my car is set up.

Thanks. Do i set up as a guest which does not require a ‘code’?

You should set up a profile. On the occasions when I forgot to enter my PIN on the screen, the system defaulted to the Guest profile. There were less features available under the Guest profile than what I had customized under my personal profile. By changing the setting to not require my PIN, the system now opens under my personal profile automatically.

Just use your regular account but change this option:
Go to Settings > Accounts, select your account, and choose ‘Login without security code’, and ‘Automatic login’ and see if that does the trick.
