  1. UK service & costs

    Yeah I know, originally went in March this year, and last week same thing. All the fans blowing but only cold air coming out, misses was well pleased as she was out in it at the time and had to have cold air on max to stop the windscreen fogging up. They sent the AA as was deemed as a serious...

  3. Tyre Pressure Control Fault

    I have just had my Tubo back from an issue with the lost of heating, again known fault, took them 4 days and did a load of other 'recall' updates at the same time. Changed from 20" winter back to 21" summer wheels yesterday and now have the above issue and can't clear it. When I put the...
  4. Heater issues anyone?

    Same here, heater just stopped. No matter what setting it just pumps out cold air. Was a bit of a dodgy drive home as windscreen fogged up in seconds while driving home, took ages to clear with freezing cold air blowing on it, wish had gone for the steering wheel heater now!
  5. periodic "spongy" brakes. that don't stop. if i die please have my family sue Porsche

    From a previous post of mine; Thanks for the replies, I have noticed this a few times at different speeds, but as W1NGE says mostly at lower speeds. I have had it on a couple of occasions where I have been approaching traffic lights and it is one of those where the lights turn and you are...
  6. Winter tyres on today

    We run a fleet of lorries at work and have our own mechanics to maintain them, got the tyres delivered from a Porsche dealer and one of the mechanics fitted them for me and also a pair on a Turbo S CT. They would have just swapped the wheels over and not done anything 'special', just had to do...
  7. Winter tyres on today

    Yeah is a 21" to a 20", when you first drive the car after the change is comes up with a warning on the dash saying 'Tyre change detected make selection". You then need to re-calibrate, it gives you a selection of wheel/tyre types to choose from, 21" Summer, 20" Winter etc. so is pretty...
  8. Winter tyres on today

    Thanks for the replies, I have noticed this a few times at different speeds, but as W1NGE says mostly at lower speeds. I have had it on a couple of occasions where I have been approaching traffic lights and it is one of those where the lights turn and you are almost committed but not quite, so...
  9. Winter tyres on today

    Just had winter wheels put on today, will be interesting to see if I see any improvement although it is still fairly mild in the UK. I always used to swap to winter tyres with previous performance cars but haven't over the past couple of years as didn't really think that they really made that...
  10. Charging issues today

    So, to say I am in a bad mood is an understatement. Had hospitality tickets for the rugby today and a hotel booked for tonight, but instead of being at Twickenham am sat at home watching it on Prime! Had enough charge in the car to get to the hotel in Hounslow but decided to stop at Fleet...
  11. What a brilliant car...

    I've only really done A roads and Motorways in mine so far, but coincidently I am off to Porlock on Exmore on Thursday so will get a chance to do some of the real twisty stuff. Am looking forward to it, will see what sort of range I get as most of my journeys are all pretty short so be...
  12. Disaster! Spec missing the one thing I wanted. ????

    I have it on mine, the demo one I drove didn't have it so wasn't sure what it sounded like so thought I would go for it as it might be fun and let people know you were coming when crawling about. Never switch it on, is a bit annoying, but worse I think I would actually rather run a jay walker...
  13. How did you pay for your Taycan?

    Mine was cash, but is a company car so the company paid the cash. Decent BIK (benefit in kind for non-UK readers) incentive, going for the Porsche actually saved me about £600 a month over the old company car.
  14. Taycan Cool Bag

    I put it on my xmas list and the wife got me one, have it in the car but have never used it, didn't hold as much as I expected it to. Like others have said needs to be strapped down, but I also find even when strapped I keep having to push it back into the boot as it stops the boot closing if...
  15. Do you daily your Taycan?

    Mine is my daily car, but do very little miles as live so close to work and weekends tend to use the Range Rover as easier with kid and dog. I agree that it does sometimes surprise me when you see a 3 year old car with only a few k on the clock, but I used my i8 every day, sold it after 5 years...
  16. Heated Rear Window stopped functioning

    Hi MisterT, Did you get this resolved as the same thing is happening on my Taycan Turbo, I put rear window heater on, turns orange but then turns white again after about 5 seconds? No pre-heating or anything going on, just pressing the 'button' on the console, be interested in your fix as...
  17. I did a thing. Dirty martini. ?

    White Turbo based in Gill, so am sure I will see you about ?
  18. I did a thing. Dirty martini. ?

    Saw this wrapped Taycan lunchtime today, is only about 10 miles down the road to me :clap:
  19. Just saying hi.. about to become a Turbo owner

    Nice looking car, picked up my Turbo last Monday. 9 year old daughter cried on the way to pick it up as meant the i8 was going, but has been happy since being able to sit up probably in the back of the Taycan ! Is a staggering piece of engineering, fun and practical. Took it out shopping...
  20. Electrical system error -- dashboard notification -- anyone else experience this? -- resolution - defective 12v battery

    Thank you for the reply. I left it for a couple of hours then took it for a 20 minute spin, and then did the same a couple of hours after that, both times no error so fingers crossed. Dealer said later today they had one other car that had a red warning, pull over immediately, and said...
