Heating Failure

[DerekS]

Did your first Taycan have a failed heater?

Nope, that one never did.

It's 15F out right now. I took a trip to get coffee and the cabin never heated up. I added a charger stop and the battery didn't warm either.

Is that a typical winter temp for your area? It jot 10F at my house over last couple of days but it is not typical for this area. In the two decades I’ve lived here this maybe only the 2nd or 3rd time I remember 10F or less.

So an Irish summer heatwave then! Hope your replacement arrives quickly.

Add me to the broken heater club.

Welcome to Taycan failed heater club.
Membership here is much easier to earn than your more exclusive broken DC charger flap club.
(But we don't have many TX members.)

I wonder if it would have happened if we didn't have such a cold snap. I know it worked for battery warming on trips up to this point.

Doubt it, our heater died when in was in the mid 30's, working one day (almost 2 years) and then just dead the next.

Repaired! Took about 2 weeks, heater was shipped from Germany. Got everything so far but one "common" problem, waiting now for my electrical error.

My car was towed away yesterday via Porsche assistance. The part has been ordered and I will get my car back on Thursday very quick.
So far I had:

Glass roof cracked x2
HV 22kw charger dead
Heater dead.



What is next ?

What is next ?

Red electrical fault message and battery module replacement?
Rocks making noise in front fan intake vents?
Water leak in rear trunk lid?
No connection to app requiring PCM replacement?
Check out Taycan TSB list compiled by @rs38 and take your pick.

Forgot to say that I did have the pcm replacement ?

I just joined the (heater fail) club. 22MY CT 4S. I've had it just over a year. Suddenly, no heat. At least the seat and steering wheel are toasty. Scheduled for service next Monday...

Make sure they’ve done it before and fully understand the process. Mine is still in the shop since Weds and they appear to be stuck.
