    How frequently do you get punctures?

    In 8000 miles (3 years) I have had to replace ALL my tyres THREE (3) times! The roads are falling apart were I am and even the 1 cm deep but wide pot holes cause by tyers to buldge at the side. Low profile tyres, heavy car and shitty roads are not a good combination.

    No but I would like a switch that emulates consistant brake feel from an ice car.

    Taycan suddenly turned off! Message displayed, “electric system error.”

    You're lucky it was just a part that need replacing. That message can usually mean you need a new main battery. That's the down side of electric cars, they can just stop working and there is nothing you can do about it except the dealer.

    Spray washing underside of Taycan?

    Chemist Paul Krebaum discovered a solution that changes the odorous thiols into odorless acids, thereby chemically neutralizing the skunk odor. The formula is: 1 quart of 3 percent hydrogen peroxide (fresh bottle), • ¼ cup of baking soda (sodium bicarbonate), and • 1-2 teaspoons of liquid dish soap

    Taycan security - Advice please

    My dealer said to just get gap insurance instead of a tracker. £500 for two years. Plus you don't have to deal with the hassle of disarming it and carrying around an extra fob with you. Do you really want your car back after it has been stolen when you could just get a new car for no cost?

    It happens when the car thinks somebody is going to hit you. It normally happens when a bike is coming up from behind and goes around you at the last second.

    How much energy does sitting in traffic use?

    My worst case policy is you can always count on 50% of the estimated range no matter what. - Range mode helps for long trips.
