  1. Service cost

    Actually, the sensor does need alignment and calibration after a windshield replacement, to make the active cruise and crash prevention work properly. In the US it is included n the cost of the windshield. Personally, I think the prices you are quoting are insane by US standards, and I would...
  2. FINAL CHOOSE - 4S standard battery or good spec RWD with Performance Battery?

    What did Whitmer do? All I can see is that the roads are finally getting fixed, everywhere, and at a pretty incredible pace. Pretty much everything is under construction at the same time, which can be a PITA. The economy here is doing great, house prices are up, and there are more jobs than...
  3. Taycan died at Electrify America charger - how to deal with it if it happens to you

    Remember that this came from the salesman, not a tech person, or a service advisor. He said that if you lock the car and walk away it will reset itself in about 20 minutes. I haven't tested it, since the car only died once, but it seems to fit what happened to mine.
  4. I am watching the “sh*t show” that EA is live and in person

    You have to enable plug and charge in your car. It's buried in a sub-menu of the charging menu.
  5. Taycan died at Electrify America charger - how to deal with it if it happens to you

    I've spoken to the 800 roadside service line, and the concierge they transfer you to, and neither of them knew anything about the car or the problem at all. I think they are probably just a phone banking company. When I took the car to the dealer for service, they also had no idea why it had...
  6. FINAL CHOOSE - 4S standard battery or good spec RWD with Performance Battery?

    Royal Oak is changing a LOT. Tons of construction and tall buildings, and if you haven't been there for a few years, you might not recognize it. More like Birmingham than Ferndale now (not a good thing IMO!)
  7. Taycan died at Electrify America charger - how to deal with it if it happens to you

    Walmart Supercenter, 4650 S Emerson Ave, Indianapolis, IN 46203 Apparently there were 3 people shot near a school about a mile away the night I was stuck there. I'm not sure if "ghetto" is the right word, but it is definitely a seedy looking lower-middle class or poor area of town. I...

    Offering a free wall charger does nothing to help the people who want to actually drive past a short radius of their house. Wall chargers are cheap, and where I live, the utility basically pays for them with a $500 rebate. Plus, you need a 100A hard-wired circuit to run an 80A charger, which...
  9. So, is it acceptable or normal for dealerships to add $20k Premium?

    I would not patronize a dealer who gouged me - ever. Our Taycan was ordered in late May, and delivered in early September at a significant discount from sticker price. There are 3 Porsche stores in my area, and I drive past 2 of them to get to the third, and this is why.
  10. Taycan died at Electrify America charger - how to deal with it if it happens to you

    Yeah, it's funny, because my visit to the dealership didn't actually generate any paperwork. They just read the codes, told me what they were, and I went on my way. I'll have my wife take it in and get it in the record. There are a few other things that need to be addressed too, like the...
  11. Received Neptune Blue Taycan Cross Turismo 4S (CT4s)

    I love that color, congrats!
  12. Taycan died at Electrify America charger - how to deal with it if it happens to you

    Thanks for the info. I'm not sure how to report this to Porsche, since the people on the 800 line seem to be an outsourced towing dispatcher.... Guessing I'll get it into the dealership (again) to get it documented and into the permanent record of the car, for the lemon law suit when it...

    I charged at Novi yesterday. 2 of the 4 chargers were out of service, but another charger called EA and got them back online. I've never been able to get a free charging session going, didn't know you could call EA.
  14. Taycan died at Electrify America charger - how to deal with it if it happens to you

    Hello all, I was in the middle of a road trip to Indianapolis from the Detroit area, and stopped at an EA charger in Indy - the only one in the city, on Friday night. As I was charging (started at 10%) the charger screen suddenly turned red, as did the light on the charge port. "Charging...
  15. FINAL CHOOSE - 4S standard battery or good spec RWD with Performance Battery?

    I think if you are worrying about resale value above all else, you might want to consider a different choice. I think at this point everybody, including the experts are guessing at the resale value of these cars. I think it's reasonable to assume that as EV technology improves, the value of...
  16. What are folks hearing about delivery dates for September 2021 USA Orders

    We ordered at the end of May and picked up the car last week. Cabin sun sensor was missing on the build but they shipped it to the dealer for installation, and caused no delay. Actually arrived about when originally promised, showed a delay at first, but then arrived at the dock weeks early...
