    Lasted 9 days (Panoramic roof)

    Don’t want to jinx it but yep, just done about 1500 miles in last couple of weeks and so far so good. Been through plenty of temperature cycles in the last 4 or so weeks too 🤞

    Lasted 9 days (Panoramic roof)

    Yep, ditto (mine just before yours I believe). Was all good for the week after but I’ve not done many miles yet and then been away on business. Probably check it as soon as I’m back to see if any temp changes have done anything whilst away 😂. I’ll be forever looking at the roof after every...

    Lasted 9 days (Panoramic roof)

    If that’s the case something seriously wrong at Porsche given the large number of vehicles we know of and the quite extended production ranges of them. Not like it was just a bad week’s batch in that worst case 😬.

    Lasted 9 days (Panoramic roof)

    I mailed VWFS Porsche Finance last week. They said they can pass on a complaint from me so will type something up over the weekend. Might give it a little more weight 🤷‍♂️.

    Lasted 9 days (Panoramic roof)

    All cars will flex to an extent (even as amazingly planted as our Taycans) so needs to be a little give but I’ve purposely chucked it about ( in the name of science naturally) and doing so doesn’t seem to make any difference. Given this replacement roof cracked before leaving the dealer...

    Lasted 9 days (Panoramic roof)

    Did forward this thread to my OPC along with the conjecture on soldering points. They had a really good look when replaced roof and nothing obvious on mine. My second roof (1st replacement) cracked in a different place too (from the rear as opposed to from the sides). It’s due in for its 2nd...

    at what point do we stop apologizing for Porsche

    I have got a problem with Porsche and thats the panoramic roof issue on my CT. Now they need to resolve it or there will be hell to pay, or a rejection via the finance company. That being said its clearly a materials issue that is irrelevant to the drive train/energy storage format of the car...

    Initial RS E-Tron GT impressions

    I’ve got the PSCB’s but only as standard on the Turbo. Definitely the benefit is cosmetic, not seeing the rust build up in the winter. Downside is that it always seemed an excuse in the ipace to charge to 100% , blat up the A1 to some roundabouts and give them a nice clean 😛. I do like the way...

    South of UK - Winter wheels thoughts

    Never had winter tyres before though if hadn’t been for lockdowns may have had them on the iPace. Heavy, high performance cars. Want maximum stopping power sub 10C, let alone any bonus on snow/ice (which I’ll still try to avoid driving in due to others). Made easier by planning an Alps drive in...

    52p per KW … ( the new electricity domestic UK cap)

    I’d definitely call them and at least ask unless you are on a fixed? Go/Go Faster contract is for a year, 40p day / 8.25p for 5 hours overnight.

    52p per KW … ( the new electricity domestic UK cap)

    Have you called Octopus? I switched from Bulb to Octopus last month, once smart meter was confirmed all ok went to Go Faster (8.25p but for 5 hours which works better for the larger Porsche battery as I only have 7.4 kW at home. Works out pretty much bang on 37% charge overnight). Was made...

    Lasted 9 days (Panoramic roof)

    Not yet, chased on Friday to see if any answer from the technical ticket dealer raised on Porsche and also mentioned Larkey’s flexi glass (hoping we hear that is still uncracked in a few more week).

    Lasted 9 days (Panoramic roof)

    Hows the “New New Glass” roof holding up @Larkey ? Hatfield raised a ticket for me on Monday this week as I don‘t want them to replace my 2nd cracked roof (even though they have one for me) till some resolution Is known. I have a week away in September, I will aim to get it replaced then hoping...

    Lasted 9 days (Panoramic roof)

    Yep, seems it has happened without rails too. I’d shared this with my OPC and they’d had a really good look around the rails and also for any welding defects as also theorised but nothing.

    Lasted 9 days (Panoramic roof)

    As an update, I know someone who had their roof replaced the following week from mine and so far so good. All the Porsche focus seems to be on the adhesive (take multiple samples of the mix during the process, send to them etc). So they must feel it wasn’t allowing enough give. They had a...

    22kw upgrade concern appearing on porsche car configurator.

    I had it done as the dedicated recall about a month ago, then flipped my home charge back to 32A. I’ve since had the uPdate done (which from what I’ve heard on this forum, does roll that update up into it) whilst they were fitting my patented self cracking roof #2 just before I head to the...

    22kw upgrade concern appearing on porsche car configurator.

    I had my OPC tracking this since last November (I still ordered it and had my home unit set to 24A). I pushed hard on the harmonic update and has it confirmed back on email that it resolved the issue (Though I see @MrB has had a failure since…). I’m back at 32A single phase at home so , given...

    22kw upgrade concern appearing on porsche car configurator.

    Funnily enough, none of my charges were 22kW ..until I got a car with a 22kW charger. It does of course depend on both your journey profile and your plans to travel. Ireland, good contingency in many parts of the highlands and certainly a ton of locations in Europe. I do, or plan to, visit...

    That’s poor, glad its rolled up though 😎. Had a few 7.4kW charges since mine was done..so far, so good (lasting long than the roof anyway..)

    Latest Taycan Software Update Findings and Reviews Thread

    That’s (was) a separate update from the uPadate, but if you haven’t had it done yet hopefully the update rolls it into one package or they do it at the same time. Did you never get the official notification for the campaign?
