I rejected my first one and got a full refund! My second one has been problematic as well but they seem to have largely got it right after its last visit to the dealer. I would either reject your car or demand a replacement. Good Luck!

I am on my second Taycan Turbo, the first on was thrown back at Porsche for a full refund because of the numerous faults that this forum has discussed at length. The range seriously improves as your overall mileage increases, bit like running in a conventional car. I did a 200 mile round trip...

I am on my second turbo, I rejected the first one after a month and got a full refund. Guess what, the second one is no better, it spent 3 weeks with the dealer recently on exactly the same problems you are experiencing. As others have said it is a super car to drive but the software is nothing...

Yes, you are quite right. You want the Tesla connector for precisely the reason you have given! It is a real pain having to open up the app or go to the main screen to open the charging port. We have the Taycan and a Model X both on Tesla connectors and charging at the same time on our 3 phase.

I have heard a rumour that a hard reset can sometimes work, the only issue is that the car has to go to GB at Reading as they are the only people in the country with the equipment to do it. I fear you will have these problems with your car when it arrives and the dealers are completely ill...

I collected my Turbo in Volcano Grey on Friday afternoon. It is actually my second Taycan, great car to drive and superior build quality but as you say the technology is dreadful compared to Tesla. At least with Porsche you can get a human being on the telephone although they don't have a clue...

I collected my Turbo 48 hours ago and suffering exactly the same problems. One moment the app says I am connected and the next it says that there are no vehicles attached to my account, same on the website. It is my second Taycan in a month, I rejected the first one after 4 weeks (and got a full...

I hate to say this but I have just rejected my Taycan Turbo because not only would the app not connect when I collected the car but it failed completely to do so for another 4 weeks. The car's connectivity in general was just as problematic so in the end I gave up, returned the car and they...

Does the car fall within the CRA or are you well outside it? You could always suggest to him that instead of a full refund you would accept a replacement! Porsche cannot punt these cars out at the prices that they do and expect us to simply trial them On their behalf!

I agree, don’t think they will have an issue selling it but it is used with 2 registered owners, I bought it as their demonstrator so somebody is going to take a bit of a hit, it should be Porsche GB rather than the dealer.

He couldn’t really, none of the services nor the app would connect at handover but he thought it was a temporary issue with the servers in Germany and all should be ok overnight! I was within 28 days so the consumer rights act was in play which may have concentrated his mind somewhat!

The refund is on its way, they didn’t argue at all. I spent 4 weeks going back and forth with Porsche GB who merely said it had been referred to Germany. It’s very unfortunate as the car itself was great to drive but ridiculously backward on the technology front.

Sadly I threw my 4 week old Turbo back to the dealer at the weekend not entirely because of the satnav although as has been pointed out it is absolute rubbish. Tesla is streaks ahead in my view although if you are going on a long trip you need to do some pre planning whatever EV you are in and...
