    Thermally & Noise Insulated Glass

    I am on my 2nd Taycan, 2020 now 2022 since last December. On the 2022 I got the better glass. I love it! I live in San Diego, weather usually warm. The car is crypt quiet, even noticeable improvement in the rain (super rare here...lol). I don't use speed detectors or toll tags. This is in...

    Insulated glass...?

    This is my 2nd Taycan, first did not have the insulated glass, second one does. The side windows are actually dual pane. As people have said, the car us super quiet without the special glass. The biggest time I noticed the lower noise was in the rain. I would get this feature again. I'm in...

    Spoiler cleaning position - can barely get a finger in

    I have wondered how much aerodynamic help the spoiler does at all? I wonder if the weight and complexity is worth it? I suspect a moveable spoiler was written into the spec without regard for the usefulness. It deflects so little. Since it is there I wish we had more manual control over it! I...

    Extra glass panel between rear window & spoiler

    Can anyone explain why there is an extra panel? Can it be removed? What is under it? If it is required I wish I could have gotten it in body color, not dark glass. Yes I have the aluminum roof not the all glass roof. This was one of the major changes I made between my 2020 Taycan and my...

    Porsche should stay out of electric game!

    Personally I would love Apple to buy Porsche. Apple is trying to build a car, which they will obviously use someone to do for them. Tesla used Lotus for their first cars. Porsche driving dynamics, Apple Software, wow! I am not an Apple or Porsche fan boy.

    Let’s talk brakes on a 4S....standard red or PSCB...

    I have always wondered why racing cars don't add a small water reservoir to inject water through the interior of the rotors (from the bearing and use centrifugal force to blow the steam outward) when the rotors reach a certain temperature. When I track my car I wait for the rotors to cool down...

    Ambient lighting help

    I always listen to XM radio, that doesn't seem to change the color. Has anyone gotten it to work with XM?

    MAMBA GREEN Taycan Club

    That is the color of mine and I agree, you really get noticed. Actually I get compliments on that color EVERY day whether I drive it or people walk by the house. So if you are in witness protection better get gray/white... ;-)

    break in

    I have the mirrors set to fold in on locking, easy to tell. That is a menu item.

    break in

    I'm going to ask a stupid question. Are you sure your car was locked? I say that because if you just walk away after (30?) seconds the handles fold in but the car is NOT locked. The other issue I have had is when I lock the car and kind of walk around a bit near the car it might unlock...

    Taycan owners - how happy with purchase?

    I marked "exceedingly happy". However this is my 2nd Taycan, 2020 I was less than enamored with. 2022 much better now as they have fixed some SW and HW items. This was expected since 2020 was the first model. Charging at EA, still a "very disappointed". 85% I blame on EA. This is also...

    What is the "power" difference you get with Sports Chrono pack?

    I wonder what the maximum HP of these motors really are? This is all under SW control to keep the motors and batteries happy for a long warranty window. I think Porsche marketing should insist on bumping up the HP and extra HP run time every year (retroactively as well). That would sell...

    Maybe a screen is needed in the front bumper?

    Somewhere on this forum someone mounted a mesh in the wheel well to keep rocks from going through. I've got power charger ports, so this is blocked.

    Plug and Charge not working. Have to start it using app. Any tips on troubleshooting that?

    I have found it is hit and miss whether P&C will work, or if the EA charger will work with ANY method. EA seems to have very fragile software/hardware. I've had P&C work, but have also had to use the myporsche app in conjunction. Other times I would not get it to work even while talking to EA...

    Dear Porsche... (Center Console Lid does not stay open)

    Another problem, I have not found a way to route a USB cable out of the center console, so it get smashed when you route one out and close the cover. They needed to leave a gap or slot somewhere

    Store and download onboard cameras video?

    I do agree that Porsche should just integrate someone else's camera system. Porsche really doesn't manufacture much and especially on the Taycan. I don't really know what the % they mfg, they don't build the motors, batteries and I suspect even all the software is outsourced currently, so my...

    What happens if you use the parking brake while the car is moving?

    Thanks, actually I did look in the manual but didn't find it, my bad.

    Trying to decide whether to add Passenger Screen option

    My Taycan has 4 passenger screens, all separately controllable and don't use up the car battery. They are called phones that every single person that has ever gotten in my car has. Years ago we paid dearly for movie screen built into our Odyssey for the kids to watch, it was hardly ever used...

    Store and download onboard cameras video?

    I agree with most of your points, as always the system design needs to anticipate features like this for it to have any chance of being implemented. I have "surround view" which is a $1200 feature. The cameras it has are all color, I use the forward mounted camera to park my car in the garage...

    Store and download onboard cameras video?

    It would seem an easy feature to add something that is constantly storing the video from all the cameras and either manually or automatic sensing using the accelerator video get stored, say 30 seconds before impact, 30 seconds after. Of course they should allow the user to install a USB stick...
