Yeah, most car companies are bad at this but Porsche is stands out. Still, better than our land rover…
i really wish the car would connect to my home wifi in the garage, the cell signal is so bad it takes forever to connect, when it actually succeeds.
Has anyone else noticed that when you go into Sync mode, it still displays both passenger and driver climate controls now?
before, when in Sync mode, it only showed one temperature control. When you went out of Sync mode, it showed both so you can change independently
now it always shows...
In the same boat. worked for a few days last week then just stopped, despite getting a ‘green dot’ connection from the app and other things updating.
and today it started working again. Seems like a server/service error, not a car thing
I’ve had a 22 4S CT for just over a year now and one of the more annoying aspects is the indeterminant amount of time it would take my phone to connect to the car. sometimes it was fast, sometimes it would take a minute or 2 to finally connect and launch CarPlay.
About 3-4 weeks ago, it’s now...
I find if bang the b pillar and the top of the drivers side door (where it meets bottom of window) the rattling goes away for a while. It’s not consistent enough to take in
anyone try a windshield mount at the bottom center of laying on the dash a bit? front of car drops off quite a bit seems like that should also work? maybe not with insulated glass i suppose
I hear it too on my CT. Sounds like a big exhale, from rear passenger side. Happens a lot tho, while driving down the road in places where it shouldn’t nec be going up and down. Weird
i came here for this. what the heck porsche - how can you mess up the center console like this? Its just really awkward and hard to open while seated, and the fact that it won't stay open is just dumbfounding.
do miss soft close doors.
The My Porsche app does this too. Seems to default to showing the car unlocked and windows open. Once it connects, it corrects itself. “Unintelligent defaults”
I was on the fence too. Really glad i went with chalk, feels a bit more special. White seems pedestrian and “normal” and chalk seems to stand out especially with black trim
sorry for poor lighting
I did the 12v battery disconnect for 5 min, and when it came back on the LTE icon was there. Let it sit locked for a bit (hour maybe) and now it works!
my car recently stopped updating the servers. it basically has no data connection anymore.
the icons on the dash seem to indicate it lost its ability to use the LTE modem - before on top, after on the bottom.
mine, too, is intermittent. no real discernable pattern. I did at one point delete the one by my house so i could recreate it further away (give it more time to lift). I'm also a Porsche Austin customer but they can't have my car to troubleshoot :)
So, first the obligatory “i love this car and driving it makes me happy!”. But.. there are some things that are pretty frustrating. Some are “Porsche things”, as i understand it. There’s no reason they can’t build an amazing car that also solves these problems, although i fully expect a fair...
I’m surprised how much i like auto regen. I love coasting but it’s nice that it knows not to just coast right up to the car in front of you. All in all it’s smart enough to behave exactly as you would expect it to, especially if you watch the little triangle on the left ‘tube’.
