I have had this happen several times. And when it does I get some kind of error message from the charger tower, saying the charge has failed. I f I am finally able to get a click, charging proceeds normally. Have others had this experience? I am thinking it may have something to do with the...

When was the last time you pulled up to a gas pump and it didn’t work? If you’re at an EV charging station with about 15% in the “ tank“ it’s a disaster, because, do you have enough charge to get to the next location, and will it be out of order as well? I think something like this is the...

Apps that help you find cheap gas have been around for a while. Does anyone know of a similar app for charging? I notice EvGo has just given its rates a substantial boost, including time of day charging. I’m not objecting to that concept, but perhaps there is a better deal at a different...

Out for an enjoyable day trip to a Chesapeake Bay favorite spot for lunch. Then the EVgo charging experience on the way — at 2 different locations! 0 for 5. @10% SOC when I finally reached a working EA. In one EVgo case, I plugged in after another car just had finished on the same charger, and...

You’ll notice I am being told I am exceeding a 55 mph speed limit while stopped. Worse, the speed limit icon freezes at 55 mph, even in school zones! I tried setting Innodrive to track changing speed limits, and that doesn’t work either. We just cruise along at any speed limit I set in cruise...

Hi folks! We’ll, what a surprise and a personal best! Today I downloaded the new “myporsche” 2.0 app. I logged in, and it does seem to work. Minding my own business, I later checked my email and found a Porsche Smart Mobility, Inc., email, informing me that PSMI had just charged me the...

I got a letter from Porsche about a week ago. According to the NHTSA the recall was issued on October 31, so a six week delay. My dealer was able to arrange for the required software fix in about 2 weeks. I was told it will take more than one day to service. I don’t remember seeing this recall...

There is an interesting and active thread on a mystery drop in range just recently. Further investigation led to the discovery that the culprit may be newly installed sticky tires (presumably for better spirited driving). This led to a discussion of tire inflation, among other matters. Given...

I have been unable to find where in the PCM menu maze one turns off the Valet monitoring function. Can anyone provide some help? I am concerned about 12 volt battery drain while parked. (The car usually sits idle for several days, and I have had low battery warnings.) I also get the occasional...

After 9 tries over about 2 months, I got the P. Connect app to log me into an EA “pump” and start charging! It happened, because somebody at the dealership (a Te**la former sales rep) showed me how to work the app, just last week when I brought the subject up. As a bonus, after the charge, I...

Anyone? I’m using the latest (Sept 20, 2021) iPhone version of A Better Route Planner, CarPlay and PCM. Is there a way to have ABRP reflect the current state of battery charge — other than manual entry using Settings in the ABRP iPhone app (that is, outside use within CarPlay)?

I thought I would post this, as on the latest call to Porsche we were advised that this is a known issue being experienced by several others and that a “campaign” is underway. I am uncertain what the latter term means, but my dealer says it is a good thing. Here’s the problem: when you first...

This post is a question, not an answer. I will have my MY21 treated with PPF film. Eventually, a bath will be required. I know that a selling point of a PPF coating is that you avoid swirl marks if the car is taken through a carwash. Since the large brushes used in those car washes must contain...

My car is supposed to arrive in late June. I am trying to do a little forward planning. First, as to paint protection film. Nick Murray is a big believer, as are many members on this very helpful forum. Are there particular areas that should not be covered so as not to void the warranty? I’m...
