    Taycan ownership trope: are Taycans really split between total lemons vs faultless vehicles?

    Porsche is literally the single manufacturer, out of a handful that have had the same issue with the LG cells, that has refused to replace affected batteries BEFORE they brake down; and instead chose a monitoring software solution for a hardware problem. So let’s keep it real Only porsche...

    Steering wheel position oddities — camber, alignment, or RAS? (4S CT, MY25)

    You're driving on the white line from the looks of it. Line assist seems to be on, so that will steer you away from it - via lane edge guidance. This sort of test must be done on straight wide roads, such as autobahns, with all assistance systems off. If it still happens on an actual straight...

    [opinion] - hmmm…VW/Audi/Porsche _IS_ in trouble… [⚠️ ADMIN WARNING: NO INSULTING / POLITICALLY CHARGED POSTING]

    3 years since, 3 billions later, and they barely finished winter testing for the first car. Simulatenously, within 1 year, AUDI (written not circles), has developed in china, in-house, at a fraction of the cost, similar zonal arhitecture from 0, and released and shipped those cars all over Asia...

    718/983 Cayman & Boxster Leaks & confirmed features

    I wouldn't take any of the specs seriously, it is just a mockup page. It is not supposed to be visible at all, some dealerships just fucked up. The fact that these mock up pages are being created is the news.

    Effort to lease batteries vs include them with the car.

    North of Europe already has some from NEO but it’s more rental than leasing. You buy a neo that comes with a small battery; and you can rent from one of the battery swapping stations a bigger one for some time

    What happened to the screen?

    There is a TSB for the middle screen having these symptoms, and from what I remember, it indicates a failing display due to heat. Haven’t seen it for the cluster, but it could be similar

    SIAP Motortrend Review of 2027 Taycan: Fake Gears, Faster Software, and a Factory-Built Manthey Monster

    Some intresting new details in the article, like this But my god, was this written by gen-z gpt? Also a lot of maybe unintentional fanboy missleading info: - all new 2027 taycans come with 2 phisical gears in the transmision... so did all taycans until now - all new 2027 taycans come with the...

    [opinion] - hmmm…VW/Audi/Porsche _IS_ in trouble… [⚠️ ADMIN WARNING: NO INSULTING / POLITICALLY CHARGED POSTING]

    Chinese automakers are struggling to find factories to buy, or that they are allowed to buy, despite EU claiming that as long as they build the cars in EU, all is ok. So I think that the factory won't stay closed for long if it does ger closed. Albeit, it would definitely come back online with...

    EU/UK: Ongoing navigation issues [Solved with PCM v3892]

    So you can get to experience the premium german brand treatment ;) In switzerland they require proof for ANY defect on the taycan before they even book me in; that's how much they value the taycan customers :D I still can't get them to fix my passanger window sometimes refusing to go up, as it...

    Onboard AC charger (22 kW option) failed - compensation of 1700 EUR - opinion

    Legally, you can get a buyback. And that would be the best option. Get a buyback, buy another taycan, likely much more deprecated in value so you''d save some money. But that of course, implies involving a lawyer. That's why the offer these compensations, to get ahead of it and make sure you...

    "Jetta And Taycan Among 10 Cars Facing The Axe At VW Group: Report" - article

    Plenty of people do; just not at 100-250k they want them at 40-70k That’s the value the market thinks is fair for this car - based on the competition it has paired with its issues and it being a 4 door car. And after sitting in the xpeng p7+, I find it impossible to justify a 150-200k premium...

    If that were true, Polestar would still be in US. It was running USA code... google in fact :) Google automotive, with 0 Polestar or Volvo or Chinese code. But it was using battery cells from China, with the full battery modules & enclosure being assembled in europe. The stance is: is the...

    OPC adversting Turbo S and hiding red ring of death

    Trying to sell a car before even fixing it is a new low. Are they gonna start fixing it once it's already sold, so the new owner can wait 3 months to get his car? But hey, the EV market is dificult, that's why Porsche EVs don't sell... nothing to do with scummy moves like this one :D

    "Jetta And Taycan Among 10 Cars Facing The Axe At VW Group: Report" - article

    What makes you think they give a rats ass about dealers? They closed hundreds of dealerships in China in 1 single year. If they can sell you a panamera for 500k; maintenance for 8-10k a year; warranty for 7k-15k a year, and have you drive across the country to a dealaership - just like Ferrari...

    "Jetta And Taycan Among 10 Cars Facing The Axe At VW Group: Report" - article

    Porsche is about to be bombared with competition in most markets beside NA. Example: I posted this in another thread, but Porsche clearly advertises itself as a Ferrari competitor by 2030 in all investor calls, selling less for more, more scarcity to drive up desirability So by that logic...

    22KW OBC downgrade compensation

    It's still insane that they developed a new 22kw charger for the Cayenne EV, but decided to not make it backwards compatible with the Macan/Taycan to avoid these buy back processes or compensation packages... Porsche's decisions are so short sighted, and then they cover all these stupid...
