This is fine

I have had four replaced so far. Granted they may of just not been able to find what the root cause was and that was just their first reaction each time.

Even a 22 kW OBC doesn't breaks down that often so yeah, it may not be the OBC.
So my point is still up. ?

Main problem is that the mosfet in the 22 kW OBC can't handle the heat and melts down/shorts out.
With a 11 kW OBC it doesn't get that hot, that's why it's way more reliable.

The 11 kw on-board charger in my 22 Taycan failed to AC charge and was replaced about a year after I got the car.

You're just the exception to the rule.
Congratulations! ???

I just don’t understand the reluctance to drive in the Porsche community. I put 50-65k on all my Boxsters and 911s.

It’s a car. Cars are for driving!

I agree... I just put 5000 miles on my Taycan in the past month on two long road trips (northern US, eastern US) ... I have always put 15k-20k miles/yr on my Porsches.

November will make 3 years of ownership on this one, I’m on track for under 10k/year.
That really doesn’t strike me as high use!

Car has been working fine since. I’m chalking it up as a software glitch until it won’t drive any more.

Search this forum. It's been reported on more than one occasion over the years.

You're intelligent enough to know what I mean.

If you own a Taycan with an 11kW OBC, I can totally see why you'd want to believe that only 22kW fail, while 11kW OBCs are rock solid, never fail.

I've got rock solid proof.
