    FoD brilliant - Power Steering Plus a must have!

    All I spec'd my car well. 4S now a year old. I didn't tick Power Steering Plus though. Just got it via FoD - and now tried it. Absolutely terrific - changes the car completely at low speed and much better in my work car park now. So I would get it, not as a luxury but a must. It should be...

    Sports Chrono or Rear Axle Steering?

    Go for Rear Axle Steering. I didn't but will definitely spec it next time. That and HUD.

    Dead 12v battery again

    Iben Think you might be right. Don’t change settings on Connect App while charging. I think that has caused my issue.

    Dead 12v battery again

    So 2nd time in 3 months with dead 12v battery. AA coming out again. Battery flat again so will be watching eagle eyed how to fix it. Car fully charged overnight at 100%. Car was in Porsche yesterday to finally fix 2 faulty powered charging ports and to replace Connect hardware in car -...

    Porsche Home Energy Unit

    Porsche not accepting it back so have to bear the cost. Not the best in terms of service. I've bought something that the Official UK Porsche installer doesn't install!

    Porsche Home Energy Unit

    I purchased this with my car and Andersen EV installed my Porsche Mobile Connect and Porsche charger mount. However, they said that they had not ever installed the Home Energy Unit so I have bought something that the Official Porsche UK installer has never used. Has anyone in the UK bought and...

    Slip, Sliding, Away - DO NOT LEAVE YOUR TAYCAN ON AN INCLINE ON SNOW...... BAD DAY AT THE OFFICE PT2

    Just a quick note to say I am delighted that my car is back - what a drive and it was missed. As you can see from the photo, perfect job by Mitchell Inglis, Glasgow so well done. Thanks also to Iain Easdale at OPC Glasgow for confirming that Mitchell Inglis were the only repairer I should use...

    Slip, Sliding, Away - DO NOT LEAVE YOUR TAYCAN ON AN INCLINE ON SNOW...... BAD DAY AT THE OFFICE PT2

    Hi Werner Porsche UK have come back to me. They confirmed that the handbrake was working and no fault with the brakes. They have not confirmed anything else and have effectively closed this down. Surprising as it seems to me something has gone wrong. No other car has done this in 20 years in my...

    Slip, Sliding, Away - DO NOT LEAVE YOUR TAYCAN ON AN INCLINE ON SNOW...... BAD DAY AT THE OFFICE PT2

    So Porsche UK confirmed today no brake failure. I have asked for diagnosis from time before crash. I now have to discuss with OPC Glasgow. Porsche not taking it seriously despite me confirming we have had all types of cars on that incline over decades without slipping and crashing

    Taycan 4s parked on snow rolling forward - how why and wtf??

    I would be very careful Nick. You cannot leave this car on any incline in snow.

    Slip, Sliding, Away - DO NOT LEAVE YOUR TAYCAN ON AN INCLINE ON SNOW...... BAD DAY AT THE OFFICE PT2

    They are summer tyres. I will never park on that incline again...... It'll get fixed and at least its at Porsche Glasgow and not my drive where it would annoy me no end.

    Slip, Sliding, Away - DO NOT LEAVE YOUR TAYCAN ON AN INCLINE ON SNOW...... BAD DAY AT THE OFFICE PT2

    So after having the AA fix my Taycan (12v battery flat) very quickly and efficiently and thanking them for it... I went over to my Mother's house to visit (we are in an extended bubble). Parked in the drive. In Park, handbrake light on and powered off. Went in. Couple of minutes later...

    Flat Battery

    So can I just say what a good job by the AA. Got it opened, then frunk then charged 12v battery. QED and all fixed. Good job Mr Guthtrie from the AA. Then had to drive for an hour he said - so not the worst. PK

    Flat Battery

    So changed my profile to delete pre heat in the morning. Then missed a security call from Vodafone saying an attempted break-in (there wasn't). Battery at 0.1% according to them. Came back to the house, car is as dead as a dodo. Looks like 12v battery dead rather than main battery (as it was...
