    Taycan 4S with Indigo Blue Rims

    How do you think that color would look with Gentian Blue? I have a Gentian Blue Turbo with the Mission E wheels and I'm tired of getting the paint chips fixed on the painted rims, so I"m ready to move on and powder coat. I was going to just do gloss black but that blue has got me thinking.

    Drive mode selector on steering wheel not working after update.

    I just got my 2020 TT back from the PCM update. The steering wheel drive mode selector now decides to sometimes work and sometimes not. I used to flip it immediately to sport mode after starting up. Now it seems like the dial won't switch modes until I've driven a bit. Turning the dial changes...

    Like or dislike the Taycan sound?

    I love it. I wish it just stayed on. I need that aural feedback to help me gauge my acceleration. The sound is very similar to the sound the Mandalorian/Return of the Jedi speeder bikes. A Star Wars car needs a Star Wars sound.

    2020 Turbo needs a new high power battery

    I finally got her back! The service manager was great. While he had her, he fixed 3 of the Mission E wheels that had paint damage. I guess when the big battery went down, the other batteries died too. That's one reason it took longer for the install. So far it all seems to work. Now we'll see...

    2020 Turbo needs a new high power battery

    My battery finally arrived last week. I haven't had the Taycan since Christmas. It's been waiting at the shop for more than 4 months. I called Porsche last week and asked them to do something for me. I haven't heard back yet. I at the minimum want the 2 year CPO warranty on top of my factory...

    2020 Turbo needs a new high power battery

    I didn't ask for an update after they told me it would be the 3rd week of February. I had a Macan base as a loaner for 2 1/2 of the months I've been without the TT. They just got a Taycan base in the fleet that they gave me to replace the Macan super slow boring Base. So I'm less mad now...

    2020 Turbo needs a new high power battery

    I can likely invoke the lemon law. The problem is is a friend of mine did that when he got rid of his McClaren 570 that was in the shop more then not and got a 600 L T. They gave him to value to the car to apply to the new one. I got a massively good deal for my Taycan T. It was a 2020 i got in...

    2020 Turbo needs a new high power battery

    Tow truck picked it up on a Friday. Porsche looked at it on Monday. That Wednesday they said it needs a new high power battery and they said they think it would be 1-2 weeks. Now it’s a month from when the tow truck took her.

    2020 Turbo needs a new high power battery

    This is such an interesting discussion. It seems like you need some electrical engineering background to fully understand this. Remember the days of discussing headers and mods and dyno testing? The world is changing.

    2020 Turbo needs a new high power battery

    Thanks for finding that! I googled 2021 changes and couldn’t find any battery things listed. Everything was software related. One of the things they had to replace on my 2020 was the OTA software update module. After that was replaced I started getting updates to what the 2021 changes were...

    2020 Turbo needs a new high power battery

    i noticed with my own battery that for the equivalent charging percentage the range was lower. So when I charged to 85% the car told me I had 200 miles of range. Shortly before the death of the battery, it was showed 185 miles of range. So I was thinking either the car took into account that...

    2020 Turbo needs a new high power battery

    I have a Macan base loaner. Not quite the same as a Taycan turbo but it’s nice enough. I set it up for the long haul and put in my phone mount and charging cables and all the daily need stuff I keep in my car Bc I suspect it will be awhile. There is a battery they located in New Jersey. I live...

    2020 Turbo needs a new high power battery

    I knew getting a 2020 would make me a beta tester but I didn't think it would be this bad. My card was dead about 5 days into ownership. It had to get towed in. It had the 12 v issue. It went back a few times to get updated. It was doing fine for many months. Then in the last 3 months it would...

    Power Failure and has been at OPC for 7 days

    My car bricked for the second time. The first time it died in the garage after 4 days of ownership. It had to be towed in. It was the battery issue. Then it had to go back multiple times for software issues. Prior to the second death, it had only been charging to 62% or 66% or sometimes it would...
