    Rattling parcel shelf - Sport Turismo

    My parcel shelf likes to dance and it’s driving me mad with its incessant rattling. Before I drag it the OPC and have them fiddle with it only to show me it wasn’t seated properly, is there anyone else had this issue and what should I be looking for? Thanks.

    iOS 17.4 and navigation

    Anyone noticed any new features with Apple Maps, Google maps, etc., within CarPlay? I’m aware the new turn by turn prompts were aimed at cars with dashboard integration but I was hoping we would get something cool as a trade off. I can’t see any difference, so a little underwhelmed.

    My Porsche App - Charging state, push notifications

    In my fourth year of Taycan ownership and one thing that has always bugged me is the lack of push notifications for the my Porsche app. So much so, that it has me doubting whether it’s the app, or something I have setup incorrectly. Let me explain…. I charge the car, domestically, to 100% in...

    Destination charging - list of locations or an app?

    Apologies if this has been posted before, but where does everyone turn to find out where you can get a destination charge. I’m finding the information sketchy at best. I’m based in the U.K. thanks.

    ABRP or PIRM?

    Hitting Silverstone next weekend for the British GP and travelling the 215 miles from the North East to Milton Keynes, where I’m based for the weekend. Due to the various lockdowns I’ve not travelled very far in my Taycan Turbo S up to now and only experienced my first ever Ionity charge last...

    Siri glitching & not reading whole sentences.

    Anyone else experienced Siri unable to read out whole messages in Apple CarPlay? This happens with text messages and WhatsApp messages. It also doesn’t like reading back my replies and then hangs, which is very annoying. I also often get half a reply to any question I may ask, like “what is the...

    Sunglasses holder in place of grab handle

    Done this modification to nearly all of my Porsches. I bought a Volvo charcoal holder online, removed my grab handle & after a bit of head scratching as to how to fit it into the holes left over, it’s done. I think it looks pretty good and every inch OEM. It’s sprung & cushioned but does stay...

    prioritise porsche charging service

    Have seen this option in the Navigation settings and can’t for the life of me work out what it does. The description underneath it is pretty vague too. The Porsche good to know app must think it is actually a need to know app & I can’t be worthy. Can anyone shed any light please? Apologies if...

    UK - Data package option missing

    Hello. When I first got my car back in December I activated the data package & figured I’d play with it & then turn it off. However, since January the link to get into it is missing. On a PC I get a box next to each service overview that says “open”. Not with the data package. On the mobile...

    New 150kw DC charging rolling out across the UK

    Are they 400v or 800v? BP & Shell seem to be favouring these units & I’m confused. Google hasn’t helped much neither.

    Charging not stopping at 85%

    Apologies if this has been posted before. I have searched but not found what I’m looking for. I have a timer set to charge the car to 85% by 8:30am on a weekday morning and to pre-heat the car to 21 degrees C. Every time I get in the car on a morning it is either still charging or has charged...

    Vehicle locked status within the connect app

    Apologies if this has been asked, or indeed even answered, elsewhere. My connect app always shows an unlocked padlock next to the parking brake symbol. The first time I noticed this was a heart in mouth moment as I thought I had left my car unlocked. However the car was locked. Messing around...

    Pre-cooling/heating mind of it’s own

    Hello. Not even one full day into ownership and I already have a question. I keep getting alerted from the Porsche connect app that the Pre-cooling/heating of my vehicle is complete. I reckon to have had about six of these messages and two of those appeared in the middle of the night. To my...

    Esim & Data packages. Any alternatives?

    Pick the car up on Tuesday so haven’t familiarised myself with everything yet, so forgive me if this is a silly question. Do I need to purchase the data package to get the satellite view on the navigation system and Apple Music through the PCM? Is there anything else that won’t work without it...

    Post Brexit deliveries into Britain.

    As someone who has been at loggerheads with Porsche over a possible price increase to cover a no deal Brexit scenario I am now happy to report it has all been sorted - For me, anyway! Porsche’s revised stance is as follows: Anyone with an order placed for a Porsche pre-August then Porsche will...
