It was fun to drive along with this Gentian Blue Taycan for a few minutes this morning on my way into the office. Hopefully the owner gets to see this video. Also, if you're still waiting for your Taycan to get delivered hopefully you enjoy watching this...
TL;DR - great experience except for the website portion.
This morning I decided to try out ALK. My car was plugged in at home when I started the process. I tried to add ALK monthly subscription via website on my phone browser but it was giving an error that it could not be added to my shopping...
I was on the Porsche website this morning adding ALK to my car and I was presented a 14% off FoD lifetime purchase coupon code. The code (LOVE14) is good until Feb 20. If you were planning to get something via FoD lifetime this is a pretty good discount.
“The 48A / 11.5kW Generac EV charger is a Level 2 home charger capable of charging a car battery in as little as four to six hours, depending on the car battery's capacity and charge need. The unit's J1772 connector is out-of-the-box compatible with nearly all EVs on the market today, and a...
I was today years old when I learned…
“In the event of failure of the conventional brakes, the vehicle can be decelerated significantly and brought to a stop using the electric parking brake.”
I've recently started to explore internet radio stations in the Taycan. One issue I'm bumping into is that many stations have very poor quality (low bitrate) streams. I thought it would be helpful for everyone here if we shared our favorite internet radio stations that also provide high quality...
I need advice on how to remove some trim panels on my Cross Turismo so I can route the rear cam wire. I believe I need to loosen the headliner (at least in the back), Maybe need to detach A and B pillars. Definitely will need to remove the tailgate trim panel. If you have experience or advice on...
Disclaimer - I love the car. I wish Porsche built software as good as they build cars.
When "plug and charge" inevitably fails the next best option (to get that free charging session) is to use the My Porsche app, find the charging station, and initiate a charging session from within the app...
My custom ordered Mamba Green CT4 has finally arrived at the dealership after waiting for over a year. So it's time for me to sell this Chalk CT4 ... https://mart.pca.org/ads/59696
I couldn’t find any other references to this. My car has the uPdate and I’ve noticed that since the DST shift my timers are finishing 1 hour early. The car is showing the correct time but I had a timer set to complete at 7AM today and when I checked the MyPorsche app at 6:30 AM it showed...
My car is in for service right now. The passenger seat squeaks when someone is sitting in it.
Service department says they fixed it but I won’t get the car back until early next week due to other issues. I will report back on the outcome at that time.
I know there are other threads that...
My PMC+ is overheating causing charging errors on my Taycan so while I get that fixed by Porsche I decided to get a new EVSE. I wanted something basic that looked decent and would be reliable. After a lot of research I decided to take a risk on a fairly new EVSE from Lectron. I’ll check back in...

“Until their vehicles are fixed, Ford says the SUVs are safe to drive but that they should still be parked outside and away from structures.”
The other day I was looking through the settings in the PCM and I came across this “Data export” item. I can’t find any information about it in the manual or on this forum. Does anyone know what data this exports if you plug in a USB drive?
Cars and Coffee was this morning at COTA. What a great event. I recognized a beautiful Mamba Green 4S with "800 VOLT" on the plates so I went up and introduced myself. @CAracer it was a pleasure speaking with you today. You have a beautiful car! Was anyone else out there from these forums?
I was reading the “charging” section of the manual and came across this interesting bit of information. It’s probably nothing major but I found it interesting and will try to remember this scenario and avoid it when possible. See screenshot for details.
