    Pressing Park OR pushing/holding off?

    Many times, when parking, I simply push and hold the on/off button and the car will put itself into park and turn-off......but sometimes it just turns off and does not go into Park, any thoughts on this?

    Key fob battery routine replacement?!

    I did a quick search and couldn't find much.....so I'm posting! The CR2032 battery in these fob remotes, I've changed mine about 3-4x now, it seems like they last about 2-3 months and then die (granted the batteries were eBay bulk pack). I do leave my remote in the car so perhaps that's part of...

    You ever get that feeling....

    You ever get that feeling that one day, be it 1 year, 10 years or 25 years from now, when you go to sell your Taycan the new owner will point-out some feature or cool detail that you never noticed????? Granted, I probably have ADD but I've spent time going through the PCM and manual and yet...

    Brake-hold observation

    I'm noticing you really have to stab and press fairly hard on the brake pedal to activate brake-hold, anyone else experience this? I have a Honda HRV and once at a stop, you just push gently and it activates....seems like we really need to drop some significant pressure on the Taycan, about...

    Ceramic coatings / sealant, do details guys not like this produce because it takes their every-3-month work away from them?

    I've known a detailing guy for about 25 years and he swears on just using wax and wants to do it every 3 months. He says he's used the ceramic stuff and it's just gimmick and not worth it. He also wants $350 for his 2-hours of work (him and a helper). My hunch is that he knocks the ceramic...

    SoCal Taycan club interest?

    Can I get an opinion on a project EV

    Hey guys, I realize this is off-topic and the thread may be moved but I'd like to solicit the opinions of fellow Taycan owners. I'll try to keep it brief. I have an old 1937 Plymouth pick-up truck and while it's fairly rare it's not considered a classic but instead an antique, it's perhaps...

    Taycan Electric Sport Sound, does it really affect range?

    The tech expert at the dealership cautioned me that having the sound on will reduce range. I realize it takes some juice to run an amp and what amounts to some subwoofer action....but enough to really make much of a difference??? I'm quite skeptical. Any thoughts on that? I actually like the...

    LOL, mini Macan EV from China?

    Guys, behold the Funky Cat in all it's glory! it's a great little EV car to get as a towncar runabout or for the kids? It looks like an itineration of the Fiat 500e but has more than twice the range, 4-doors and you can't help but see a resemblance to a Porsche. I'd get some rims, paint it...

    Great rear cargo trunk liner!

    Hey guys, Having done some research there seems to be the WeatherTech and the Suncoast (or something like that). I found one on Amazon and received it today. I had to unroll it from the box and lay it in the sun until it flattened. I then installed it. Easy! Guys, I think this thing is...

    Custom floor mats anyone?

    Anyone have a line on some nice black front floor mats that have the Porsche emblem on them? My Black TTS came with just bland black mats, rather boring.... Also, anyone with a black Taycan figure out how to get the lettering on the back to be more visible or readable? You gotta get really...

    Newbie questions

    Hey guys, I just pulled the trigger on a 2021 Turbo S with just 870 miles and in pristine condition. Loving it so far, one of the most beautiful cars ever and I plan to use it as my daily. The dealer already invited me to come back for some more 'training' but I had a few questions I'd like to...

    Decisions: 2020/21 Turbo S v new GTS

    Hey guys, I'm looking to buy a Tacyan but I've got some decisions to make, I've got a line on 2 used (certified preowned) Taycan's, both are Turbo S's and one has 1k miles and the other 5k miles, both can be had for about $175k-$180k and you can see these cars at Beverly Hills Porsche or Santa...

    Taycan as a daily driver for a working hands-on guy?

    Hey guys, The wife keeps stealing my Jaguar I-pace and I'm thinking about snapping-up a 2021 Taycan Turbo S at a local dealership. Actually, if you care to take a look it's a 2021 Black with about 1k miles listed as pre-owned over at Santa Barbara Porsche, looks pretty sharp and I they they are...

    Battery life 3-5 years?

    EDIT: The 3-5 year battery life (found when googling Taycan batter life) evidently applies to the standard 12-volt battery that is found in any car and NOT the large lithium battery bank used for propulsion, just to get this out of the way..... Hello, my first post here and I'm a prospective...
