    Switched from 4S to GTS ST - significant reduction in range?

    Has the region started working yet? Takes 500 miles or so normally for that to start charging the battery instead of just using the brakes.

    Heating Failure

    Thanks. Yep, I have the OG heater for a few days more at least while they have the car. Just waiting for what Enterprise give me as a loaner now. But, hopefully I've beaten the rush of the heater replacement apocalypse for this year

    Heating Failure

    Am I the first of the season? I managed to escape the failures over last year but mine has failed today. Maybe I've missed some posts on this on here but the Dealer suggested there's a replacement part now rather than fitting the same defective unit?

    Ordered my ST. Any last minute advice before locking

    150Kw charger option feels like a must have and maybe the bike rack mounts? I'm not sure on the power steering plus but if you had it before and liked it then go for what you want.

    Backup Camera Quality to Improve?

    You don't actually get this mode unless you option the full surround cameras. If you just have the reversing camera only you just get the fisheye. Unless of course I've missed it which is possible!

    IONITY

    I had a similar experience at Cobham a few weeks ago. First attempt at about 9am at around 30% SOC and I got 64kw (all stalls were being used). That lasted 9 minutes and then failed. So I walked back out from the services and started it again and got the same speed. I gave up after another 10...

    Rear seat space.......

    He’s right on the edge of that height, but the seat in the middle is higher that the two either side, the seat belt sits across his chest correctly which is what the guidelines are really about. There’s only isofix on the two side seats. I tried a new M3 when I was car shopping and the space...

    Rear seat space.......

    I have 3 kids, the youngest is 7 and the middle seat is just about OK. He sits with his feet on the drivers centre arm rest on a longer journey. Not done anything significant really yet though where the size has been an issue. CT/ST is much better height wise in the back than the Saloon. I...

    Retrofit Macan Camera?

    Its exactly like this on my UK car, the distortion is ridiculously bad. On the ‘standard‘ reversing camera rather than the surround view option there’s also no option to change out of fisheye view. You can only use the image to give you an idea due to the distortion, you have no real idea of...

    150kW on-board DC-DC converter - do I need to order this in UK?

    Nope, virtually every UK (in fact all has been stated....) > 50Kw chargers are 960v I think so the 150Kw/400v option is completely redundant. A standard Taycan can use the faster chargers with no issue. The only reason to spec it in the UK is for Tesla chargers which are 400v.

    Ladies and gentlemen. The first Taycan GTS picked up

    Thats true I think....except for Tesla Superchargers which when they do open up the network might be worth having.

    CT software updates for range

    Hi Rob - MY22 has the updates already, in fact all but the very first CT cars are My22 but they just haven't had the updated the WLTP results.

    24 hours with a Taycan GTS Sport Turismo (Coffee Beige Metallic)

    What he means is the recup via the brake pedal, which on mine didn't start until about 700 miles as it waits until it thinks your pads/disks are bedded in. The button on the wheel switches the mode so that when you lift off it does very mild recup, nothing in comparison to when the brake is...

    GTS Alpine

    Hi Henrik, Looks fabulous, congratulations. I'm sure many will be very interested to know what software/hardware you have for the PCM. Can you check please? Settings->System Settings->Software Information->Version Information I think we would like to see what Software and Hardware versions...

    What has happened to used Taycan prices?

    I saw your post on Pistonheads, is that after its been 'fixed'? Seems a good deal if you're not feeling it.

    Car went into neutral then park spontaneously - deja vu all over again

    Just to add my my22 CT has done this too, only the once on the 2nd day of owning it at a stop light. I half thought it was me but I know I didn’t do anything because you never go near the drive selector. Not done it since thankfully.
