Good luck! I wish and hope that’s going to be a reliable car!

Yes, i still own it (it’ll be 5 months next week). It’s extremely tricky. Laws do not work as waiting time in a court or in a consumer board is 1-2 years. Sellers know this situation and make use of that. I will definitely update on this situation.

I can tell you why you must never buy a lemon. I sold my Taycan back in late October 2024 and decided to go with BMW i5M60. It was a 1 year car (not a lemon) with still 1 year of new car warranty left. As soon as I got it my hands, in just one week, it developed an electrical fault and could...

Oh my. I’m sorry. I had impression you had been using Taycan at least. By the way, has the consumer board issued any recommendations so far? In my case, I’ve been able to get ix3 for myself from the bmw dealer. In the meantime, my attorney has been trying to speak to the seller and negotiate...

At least, you've been given another Taycan as a courtesy car. In my case, I was first given a Kia, then Volvo, then another Volvo, and now Nissan (they have a contract with Hertz, who don't have any electric BMWs). 4 visits to the service in total with the 4th still ongoing with a couple of days...

Finland is flawed in this regard. You have two choices - consumer board, which is free of charge, but processing time is about 1-2years and their decision is not binding, you still have to go to court if a seller refuses to follow their advice. The second choice is going to court bypassing the...

Hey! How is it going? Have you managed to get justice work for you?

I wouldn’t believe much the official dealers as they tend to hide information. And given their ability to add additional 0s to bills, I wouldn’t say they’re the only reliable source. Typically, you get more information on reliability of cars when they start to loose warranty and go to...

It’s a mix of everything. It’s not the first time I have such an experience and my suggestion is purely based on that. Thus, I suggest to go away and find another car to minimize risks of having a car that may require a lot of visits in the future. Finding another one definitely won’t guarantee...

Take it easy, strong logic man. My point is that one cannot predict what this car may turn out to be. Given the fact that the owner hasn’t even got their car and it’s already broken, the best what they can do is go away and find another Taycan. You simply miss the point. PS We have another...

Aha. I had the same thought with my 1yo old car that still stays in the dealership with no resolution. All started with 12v battery. Almost 4 months passed and I had to hire an attorney to deal with that as the dealership who sold the car refuse to take it back. I literally drove it for a couple...

Not the best start of ownership. Cancel the deal. Otherwise, it will likely be your pain.

BMW is in the same league - dishonest, unprofessional people

Off topic: The way how everything is handled at official dealers makes me hate cars. Honestly. I’m near abandoning idea of driving new cars and just jump to old dumb petrol 10y cars, which cost nothing and you can service them yourself

You don’t need Porsche mechanic to swap tires :) don’t waste your money. You can refer to your owner’s manual about how to set the suspension in the jack mode

When one resets trip data on their ICE car, they can see consumption up to 99l/100km or similar. Not sure, why nobody had questions about that before, but they typically roll their eyes when a similar thing is observed in their EVs. OP - just change your trip data to “since last charge” to get...

How much did you do on your m3 during winter? BMW states 10.5l/100km WLTP. But have you ever been able to achieve that? :))

Do you mean it expires in July? Can you check with another dealer? I feel this one plays dishonest rules. You can’t be denied from buying extended warranty if you still have one. This is wha Norwegian Porsche site says - Porsche Approved er tilgjengelig i følgende varianter: Som...

That’s what I’m saying. The problem is not the cost. The problem is a dishonest dealership or rules they have…
