I have been seeing consistent problems with trying to activate newly upgraded Electrify America stations with the My Porsche. App gives errors like "Charging station not reachable."
I end up having to call Electrify America and have them remote start it which is always a 15-20min call. Generally...
Let me start out by saying I know there are a lot of threads on this topic however, I want to distinguish this by saying this is only errors during DC fast charging and I want to provide workarounds so people don’t think they need to have their vehicles towed. Also, I am interested in if other...
I had my rear tires fail on my Taycan 4S after only 13K. My first set (Continental 20" AS) got about 28k and wore reasonably evenly, the replacements. I got this set in April are the Pirelli Cinturato P7 All Season and at only 13K I had a core and a blowout on the rear trying to nurse back to...
I have had my 2020 Taycan since November 2020 and have appreciated the “G” icon in the search bar next to the text entry area.
For those that don’t know pressing on this icon will perform a Google search for the destination you type in which is much more gracious and thorough than the search...
I think this is a very well done video on Estonia and shows off the Taycab very well also.

Unique facts is running this on the 100 year anniversary of Pikes Peak Hill Climb events and starting from lowest place, a private mine in Michigan.

I know there are many folks that have mixed feelings about Tim @SHMEE500 but he has a recent video that talks a fair amount on some Carbon Accents for his Taycan Turbo S by Zyrus, a Norwegian company. You can skip to 1:00 to get right into it.

First I start this thread with what I found to be a very educational video where The installer talks about the kind of wire that would be optimal having five conduit if you want to support three phase and having an ethernet carrier as well to handle data when Wi-Fi is not solid or you wish to...
This bike carrier for the Taycan Cross Turismo is an amazing piece of German Engineering.

A rather long story, but you can hear the enthusiasm throughout. Funny how the beginning he says it’s a Clickbait title but you’re not.
The Porsche Centre Nottingham fixed Mr Lee Davey right up.

I wrote this post on FB because I find even the rebuttals to the responses on the ID.4 18 day trip a bit slanted.

If you want to see a Taycan 4S getting a lap in.
I hope to take mine to a Porsche Club of America Track Event at Laguna Deca sometime. It won't be too special as it
will be my first track event.

I ran into this video the other day and they show a rather detailed job of wrapping a Taycan.
Work done by "The Classic Lifestyle" in Carrolton Texas. They remove headlights, doors, mirrors, etc to wrap into door jams. It appears to be an excellent job. From their web site you can clearly see...
This Enthusiasts video prompted me to post, I will also include other RWD (Base Taycan) videos from Kyle when they are up. He got to take this car for several days in Los Angeles before it gets shipped to the East Coast. Kyle as you may remember did the cannonball run with a Taycan 4S and holds...
How about Mark stops by your house to take you for a test drive of a Taycan while you are waiting for delivery?
What special treatment those folks down under get. Pretty funny expressions when Mark mentions he was a race car driver in a past life.
Even more interesting to me is the fact that...
A pretty decent review of the 2021 user interface changes for the Porsche Charging Planner by Mason Gilcrest. When these updates appear on my 2020 I will turn that feature back on and give it a try.
