    First Porsche Charging Lounge opens in Germany

    Have been there. Extremely positive experience - concept and execution. The pics already posted are more beautiful than those that I took, so I'll keep them to myself. Everything seems to have been mentioned already here, but tiny thing (if not mentioned already): Waving the "Taycan Charging...

    WhatsApp and Porsche Navigation

    Have got to pick up someone at a location specified thru a WhatsApp Location share, like i.e. not a specific address, but rather just the geo information. On the mobile phone, from within WhatsApp, I "shared" this location with the "My Porsche" App - which gave me a shrug like "Error at import...

    Heater issues anyone?

    #metoo. 4S heating dropped out of function some 3 weeks ago. Brought to the shop two weeks ago. Waited and changed a "pressure sensor" (no, not "heat sensor") - did not solve the issue. Waiting since a while - and for a unknown time to come- for a replacement part "heat pump". No messages/errors...

    Porsche dealer posts video announcing surprising feature of 2021 Taycan CT Turbo S

    It's "Turbo Charger" as in "CT Turbo", clearly it loads a Turbo. For an S4 then it's a S4 charger. And both cars have even wireless charging...

    Taycan Turbo S vs. Model S Plaid - really by this much!?

    Reading and enjoying this high profile thread, just this old saying crossed my mind: "Arguing with an Engineer is like wrestling with a pig in the mud. After a few minutes your realize the pig likes it." No insult here - being myself an engineer.

    Rear axle steering (RAS) - gimmick or?

    I treated myself to the RWS for the Taycan, not out of rational considerations, but more out of curiosity. My previous Panamera didn't have it. My jaw still drops whenever I use it while maneuvering.

    Porsche fake semiconductors

    For my part, it sounds serious. Yet "fake chips" just is suggesting prejudicial something fraudulent. A more benevolent translation might be place holder chips" / "dummies", implanted in order to keep the production flow up and running, allowing to retrofit it at a later pre-deliver stage...

    Setup screen appears each time car is started

    Good that you got this sorted out. Deeper: As your account on the car has been lost, the only account (hard wired) "Guest" has been activated. And, AFAIK, the default behavior of the "Guest" account is, compliant with your description, that it will force-feed the "Welcome"screen after every...

    "he driver and passenger were seriously injured in the accident. Both probably crawled about 20 meters up the slope to the road, where they were then discovered by two motorcyclists.

    Wouldn’t it be nice to have an instant electric consumption display… analogous to the indicators on some ICE cars ?

    Interestingly enough, this is exactly what I wrote into a Porsche Marketing questionnaire, when having being asked for "improvements". Nice, so I'm not the only data greedy person here....

    I guess my PCM missed home?

    Got that. Just hinting, that for varying reasons, things like that happen in our tech world.

    I guess my PCM missed home?

    Not marginalizing this. But my Garmin Fenix 6X Pro is, by default, English-speaking. Upon software updates, sometimes and very seldom, some texts appear in English rather than in the selected language (Deutsch) - probably due to the fact, that newly added features where not translated. Not...

    Is it just me, or did your Taycan come with an unrequested, always-on tracking device called StarGard?

    Further reading of different, partially old sources suggests: * It's a separate, small and relatively cheap piece of hardware * "Dealer scam" to pull off another 1k$ * and/or allows for remote lockdown in case leasing rates are not being payed (would fit your scenario) * I retract the hypothesis...
