the market may say otherwise on your Taycan 4s.... a bit over 4 years old, 200+ of them for sale nationally, asking $45-65k. Just keeps dropping...

from porsche North America? ha. you should talk to them and take them up on it to see what they offer. I've gotten letters like this from my local dealers. based on current asking and market values even in a reasonably high demand market like socal prices are not an indication demand is...

weird. my car has arb6 & 7 attached, was just at dealer and has ALL campaigns addressed other than those. And yes I have remote monitoring turned on... nobody knows why it has both and can't figure it out. Anyway, recently (2 days ago) charged to 100% (ac 8kw charger) and a. the car did not...

No. I mean most services yes. Software updates, battery and high voltage system issues. No. Most don't want to do it, it's a massive investment in tooling, safety, and training. The good porsche shops around here are plenty busy w/o needing to take on that rats next. My view is these are...

Issue 1: Work around shit electrical and battery design with a software patch and make it look cool by attaching "AI" to it Issue 2: Trusting porsche who can't even get an infotainment system to work well/right is sufficient enough at software engineering to properly develop the algorithms and...

Speaking to some techs I know... they dont like them, at all. Here's why, now I can't speak for all compensation arrangements, but in the US, most techs, including at most dealerships work on what is called "flat rate" that is, a specific job is a fixed fee to the tech. In the case of warranty...

Funny I got the thing back with the car end replaced and I haven't even opened the bag, it went right back on the garage shelf. Now you've inspired me to be curious and look at it haha.

Yeah it will be different here.... What letter? I didn't receive any letters. They literally have no documentation other than sending, and sending is not confirmation of receipt. I have no idea what they are talking about, further, if porsche has a hard limit they can put a hard limit on the car...

there have been multiple recalls on this stupid thing. The latest is to replace the vehicle side charging cable (I just had it done). I've never used the thing, ever.

The US MSRP on that part is about $3.5k... plus labor, so yeah at least $5k usd to replace it. The job is quick, for me, the part took 8 weeks go get to the US. I have it back and it seems to be working ok now.

Crazy confusing isn't it? ARB7 assumes the car will transmit. I assume they did WRS1 as it also showed ARB6. I asked dealer they didn't know, they hadn't seen this. Which do I follow? Frankly, neither, I just use it as normal, but I don't charge it in my garage. I daily charge to 80% and if...

If you have a shit dealer, sure. My dealer is up front, and will do warranty ending inspections on cars and fix issues they find (I mean, they get paid too). Unless its something like an interior rattle or a cosmetic issue (which may not pay well or pay low) I don't think any dealer wants to...

They'll cover it for the day the issue was submitted, I've had this happen where a car was in (a porsche cayenne) for an issue and the date the car entered the dealer was used, it was there and delivered back to me after the warranty expired. I would have the car AT the dealer with the work...

I got my car back (after EIGHT WEEKS for a 19.2kw charger failure, for anyone interested this is the part: 9J1-915-681-CB) yesterday and the work order lists: ARB7- Recall campaign not feasible remedy not available WRA6 - Replace charging cable for vehicle WRW1 - Reprogram external...

And my car being subject to ARB6 & ARB7, which do I follow? haha. neither letter was clear on which superseded which, and which I should follow. So here is some advice for anyone in the US who lives in a state with friendly lemon/buy back laws: this is your cleanest exit. I wish I could...

What I notice: Normal - starts in 2nd unless you mat it (you can feel it downshift to first), regular height, soft suspension Sport - uses first at start, sport chassis, more aggressive throttle mapping, I think it might lower it and put it in sport suspension Sport + same as above but I can...

I'm out, Taycan is on its way out... Bought a Cayman GTS 4.0 to Daily. Wife still has a Macan EV, she loves it but I don't love the drive compared to the Taycan. My Taycan was good for 2 years (lots of recalls obviously) but now its gone to hell...

This is the precursor to the fix for ARB6/7: new .2 batteries for all cars.

Interesting. I just noticed this on my buddies car over the weekend. Same thing. I thought it was just pollen dust. I'd use some 303 on them.

fwiw my high speed onboard charger failed almost 8 weeks ago, porsche just got the part in and I'll be getting the car back this week..
