I felt this deserved it's OWN post… Porsche's recommendation (and other EV vendors) to use a Hubbell Commercial quality socket is 100% spot on - excellent advice and should be followed. No question, just do it - do not accept anything less. if you only do one thing - do THIS thing…it is the...

Porsche blaming the victim - they still don't think they have a design problem…the problem according to is _NOT_ their crappy 10 AWG power supply cable - but rather my "poor" household wiring…

yeah I can't tell the difference between this an a real human - this is not going to be fun.

Porsche seems to be wising up - this is mostly across the board good excellent information and I agree with 99% of it - very interesting that Porsche is now recommending AGAINST using L1 charging with their charger for daily use or for more than 12 hours this is a huge step forward in educating...

I'm tried of collecting all these threads over and over and over again for people that can't use the search function. the included Porsche EVSE's (PMC+), the optional $1120 PMCC, and now the Porsche Wall Charger (PWCC) have been far from problem free in North America. But some customers have...

while at the dealership this morning I had some time to kill. Sales manager knows I'm an EV guys - walked me over to a Lucid Air and handed me the keys and suggested I check it while they dealt with some paperwork… I was with a buddy so we decided to check out the Lucid…I did not drive it...

I have a story from today I was at my local Porsche dealer today taking care of some non-Taycan related business and the service manger saw me and came over for some advice from me. You see dealerships do not exist in a vacuum - the Porsche dealership may sell Porsche's but their bread and...

80 minutes wasted today trying to get my local EA stations to charge my 2020 Taycan Turbo - what a joke! customer support is nice, friendly, polite and professional - but ultimately the following vehicle's could not charge today: my 2020 Taycan Turbo a brand new shiny Lucid Air VW ID.4 KIa...

apologies to our non-US participants, but the next week in the US is a time for family, friends, food, travel, arguments that should've never been started, and a gentle reminder as to why we either do, or do not, spend time with family (real, adopted, or imagined) it is also the most taxing...

I've tracked for more than 10 years now - and by far the best instruction/skills I've received for track driving is Ice-Driving and Rally Driving - and one of the best Rally Schools is Dirtfish. If you are serious about your driving skills, and car control skills taking a Rally Course like the...

this will be great for Laguna Seca if they are more than 50 kW…and reliable @bsclywilly this will be great in May when Laguna Seca re-opens - I wonder if these were online Monday…

…and your car from a car company. I'm a Porsche customer because I believe they make the best cars and in other aspects of my life I gravitate towards "the best" in what ever category I'm choosing to spend money - that doesn't always mean spending a lot of money, but often the two correlate...

there is a lot of existing threads covering this - and new one seem to pop up all the time maybe if we made one of the threads sticky - it would be easier for people who are new to this topic to realize this is a known issue so this thread is a poll so that we can recommend to the...

Tesla's had this outside the US for some time - but it's now listed for the first time on the US site… https://shop.tesla.com/product/ccs-combo-1-adapter supports upto 250 kW charge rate at CCS sites - so Tesla's can now use CCS sites…if the owner has this adapter I'm still looking forward to...

Hello all this is not quite a Taycan topic - but is a PCCB topic - so I thought I would share it for the community… if you're tracking your Taycan w/PCCB's I suggest you get the rotors measured after each pad-swap - see below for some actual GT3 PCCB data… I own a 991.2 2018 GT3 that I use...

this is from another thread - but I didn't want to derail that thread - I want to derail this thread :CWL: I understand this line of thinking but also I remember the vitrol with which people attack other car makers for not solving the whole problem? the statement above is understandable and...
