    Let us know how your recall update (Powertrain Shutdown / Loss of Power) went

    sigh. So 10 days later, now have new PCM and waiting on replacement of 3 HVAC servo motors in an attempt to solve all the issues that have come up post S/W update- basically first PCM was unresponsive, now other systems also unresponsive. Not heading down a great path, I'm afraid. WIll be...

    Let us know how your recall update (Powertrain Shutdown / Loss of Power) went

    Hello - dropped my Turbo S off last Wednesday night for all the updates (car delivered last July) - the big recall update didn't work after multiple tries, dealer ordered PCM replacement (not the screen). I had planned to do a PCA DE Track Day on Saturday for fun, they wouldn't release it...

    Show your home charging setup for your Taycan

    Finally installed the fancy mobile charger box. 240/50A plug inside. Works great with timer overnight.

    12V Battery Dead

    After mine died (and I went through the same jump/porsche RSA flatbed to dealer /talk with service advisor process you did) they said I didn't need any updates either (delivery in late July -so similar vintage as yours). I also had the sales guy I bought from screenshot the dealer view of my...

    Volume/Speakers Not Working

    Unfortunately the + doesn't work in this scenario (I had it happen about a week ago). As others noted, a quick on/off also doesn't do the trick. It apparently has to complete whatever update cycle it is in. Until then, it says -1 for volume. I left mine overnight...having decided I was...

    Clear Side Markers

    Yup - I bought the Porsche replacements from Suncoast and used the step-by-step instructions folks posted in the thread, above.

    Clear Side Markers

    Not sure if we need more validation that this is an easy mod...but happy to have swapped mine out. Took me about 15 min.

    First 350kw EA charge experience...connection success, but slower than expected

    yeah, I was down to 2.5-2.6 mi/kwh is the past couple weeks as it got colder. I have also been driving my Taycan on an "individual" setting that is close to Sport+, so I know that contributes to the drop in range...but it sure is fun.

    First 350kw EA charge experience...connection success, but slower than expected

    Got it ... I had thought my drive over to the 350kw charging station would have been enough of a "warm up" for the battery - but I didn't check the actual battery temperature while charging. Will do some experiments here as it gets colder. Thanks - really appreciate this forum!

    First 350kw EA charge experience...connection success, but slower than expected

    Thanks for the temp note - it was 30 degrees-ish here today...

    Why 130mph max speed?

    As others have posted, the all-seasons are fine...but I’d really love Michelin to do a set of cup tires for the Taycan. If they don’t, I’ll get a set of the P-Zeros in the spring and take my sticker off the dash. :)

    First 350kw EA charge experience...connection success, but slower than expected

    Ah, thanks for the tip on setting nav destination. I was actually using the Porsche nav to get there (another experiment...since 99% of the time I use Waze) but I don't think I "connected the dots" and started it as a charging destination. For those of you using the EA app...I feel fortunate I...

    First 350kw EA charge experience...connection success, but slower than expected

    Altogether reasonably successful although rate was slow - I'm an overnight home mobile connect charger user, but figured I needed to get out and try the EA 350kw charger that was not too far away in a Walmart parking lot (see pic). Was concerned reading some other posts regarding challenges...

    Cheat sheet: How do I recover my Taycan if it dies because of the 12 volt problem…

    yup. I used the latch as well. This scary non-traditional step was the most daunting for me.

    Marques Brownlee (MKBHD) reviews Taycan Turbo

    I'm right there with you - just over 500 miles...357 watts /mi. No time in Range mode, majority of time in Sport.

    Any Track Activity Yet?

    Thanks...it was more for the experience of having that much power and that low a CG. Not likely a habit - purpose built track options better suited. But the entertainment value of a 4-door sedan blistering through the turns seems pretty high.

    Any Track Activity Yet?

    Thanks. I thought I had looked there, but obviously not closely enough.

    Any Track Activity Yet?

    Planning a track excursion - if not before winter, then in the spring. Curious if anyone has experienced it yet? Trying to figure out tires, specifically - since tracking a car this heavy but this fast seems like it will create reasonably extreme tire stress (particularly sidewalls), even with...

    Taycan charges to 100% despite profile

    In my experience so far... profiles are useless. I've deleted them, and gone to a single timer...which has the car charge to 85% by the time I'd like it to be ready in the morning. So it backs up that time and starts however long before that needed to get to 85%. With profiles, it always...
