Hey folks, the rear camera quality has been discussed at length in other threads but I wanted to raise one scenario that could explain some of the worst cases.
In summary, if your rear camera video quality is atrocious instead of merely poor, it might be due to a failing lens cover.
In my...
Hi folks,
I wish the Taycan steering wheel had an entire PlayStation controller's worth of programmable diamond buttons! Or that the center console control panel had more programmable utility instead of spending most of its time as an empty void.
I want to have next/previous track control...
Hey folks,
I'm in the middle of swapping my wheels from winters to summers. I've done this multiple times before and always have some trouble getting the wheel off.
The car is jacked up (on two jackpoint stands). All bolts are out on the front right wheel and I have two guide bolts threaded...
Anybody used the Tesla App to locate/initiate charging via the CCS Magic Dock in recent days? The app experience for searching has changed. Now it's asking to enter vehicle make/model (Porsche is not an option) whereas Ford, VW and other models are. Entering model as VW ID.4 and searching for a...
Has anybody purchased the Porsche roofbars in recent months? I'm interested to know if they still have the same tragic metal-on-metal attachment points. I recall @Swissbob had an unfortunate experience with this marring his roof rails.
I'm still happy with my Thule WingBars, but from another...
Hey folks. I'm in my forties and recently had to start using reading glasses. My long distance vision is fine, except that when driving at night, glare from oncoming headlights and street lighting is more of an issue than it was in the past. So I'm looking for non-prescription, clear...
No news on CarPlay 2 (which Porsche has committed to supporting in future cars), but Apple has announced that iOS 17 will bring some updates to CarPlay including:
SharePlay (control of audio playback by others)
Real-time EV charging availability/status in Maps...
I keep getting PCM messages reminding me to set up Apple Music and Apple Podcasts. I reject the notifications and then delete the messages, but then I get a new pair of the same messages a few days later. I don’t want to set up Apple Music or Podcasts on the PCM (I prefer to use CarPlay).
Other...
Tire pressure influences range, but does the Taycan’s range estimate or PIRM take into account the current TPMS pressure readings? Or is it only indirect through observed consumption, and tire pressure’s influence upon that consumption?
Where can I locate the curb weight of my CT4? Where can any owner look this up for their respective Taycan model?
My manual and door jam sticker only mention max loads, not the unladen Curb Weight.
Emphasis: I’m looking for a definitive source.
Please don’t share:
A number you just Googled...

Thanks to @tigerbalm mentioning it, I’ve been aware of the Juice Booster as a very well made European EVSE with nice adapters and very robust...
My car is in for the ANA6 update. Having read how folks have needed to re-login, and set up CarPlay over again, I tried to proactively delete all paired phones from my PCM's device list before my appointment. I just could not find a way to do it! Tried swiping across in the Device Manager...
I keep my mobile charging gear in the rectangular pancake charging case that the PMC+ came in, and I place that in the frunk.
However, that case doesn’t really fit the frunk well, makes it awkward to utilize the remaining space.
I’m interested in finding a duffel bag or similar as my go-bag...
Was surprised to see a message on my PWCC unit today indicating that there was a software update available. That I’m aware of, this is the first update that I’ve experienced since installing.
I checked the Porsche updates page for the PWCC, and would you believe - there are release notes...
Dropped my car off for detailing this morning, and they pointed out some damage to my steering wheel (photo attached).
I think that these scrapes were caused by a zipper on a pair of shorts that I often wear.
There are multiple scrapes on the lower left quadrant. I use comfort entry but as we...
On multiple occasions I've experienced an issue with PCM navigation where the car fails to recognize arrival at a stopover.
I'll have programmed a navigation route to include one or more stopovers; A stopover might be an intended charging location or just a street address. After having stopped...
Hoping to get some advice on an issue I experienced after taking my CT4 through a touchless car wash for the first time. My standard black MY22 CT4 has full XPEL PPF and Ceramic Pro. I usually get 3-4 thorough details per year, with between-details maintenance just being a manual rinse / spot...
