    Front license plate states

    I live in NJ where a front plate is required (although there was a bill in the legislature to ditch that requirement - not sure if it went anywhere). I refuse to put a front plate on my Taycan. I’ve been pulled over once for speeding and nothing was mentioned about the front plate (and cop let...

    Charging to 80% or 100%

    85% for daily use. Page 79 of current manual. 2020 model year e-manual still says 80% so they don’t have to update printed books, but it is 85% starting in MY 2021.

    Front license plate states

    In NJ where I live, front plates are required but I refused to drill into the front bumper of my Turbo S and don’t like the look of the other temp options. I keep the front plate in the Frunk and, while it may not get me out of a ticket, cops tend to understand and look the other way. Even if...

    USA Taycan insurance.

    I have used Liberty Mutual for both homeowners insurance and our cars for years. They may not be the cheapest but in my experience they are the best when you need them the most. Years ago when Hurricane Sandy hit in NJ they essentially gave me a blank check and said let us know how much you need...

    High Rates of SoH degradation in Taycan

    I am complete noob at this stuff so please ignore my ignorance. However, I would venture to guess that, on average, Taycans (like most non-SUV Porsches) are driven much more spiritedly than Teslas are over the long term. Does that wear on battery SoH at all and could that explain the difference?

    Car totalled. Would be very appreciative of some guidance

    I agree with this. I doubt lawyers will be interested in this without there being any bodily injury. Sad but true. There is just nothing in it for them unless you pay by the hour and that likely is not profitable for you. That being said, I would take a couple of no fee consultations from...

    Lost LTE

    Strangest thing. I lost all services requiring a data connection about 5 weeks ago. No LTE symbol and had the two lines with the slash through it on the PCM. I wasn’t comfortable disconnecting the 12V battery myself and have been busy so have not had a chance to take to the dealer yet. Fast...

    Car Touchscreen Protector for Taycan - review

    Hi everyone. I’m just curious why people think they need these. I’m a big supporter of them on phones, and always have one on my iPhone since it’s in my pocket with keys, coins, etc. and to protect against the inevitable drops. Why do I need that in a car? Is it to make fingerprints less...

    2020 Taycans still a good buy?

    I had a really good experience buying a CPO from a Porsche dealer out of state and having it shipped to me in a covered trailer. Did all the paperwork via email. It had all the options I wanted for an amazing price. I asked the dealer to make and send me a personalized video walkthrough of the...

    2-year service/maintenance

    I am in Bergen County, New Jersey and the 2 year service on my TTS was most definitely NOT complimentary. Just checked the receipt and came to $740 for everything.

    To open, let go of the door handle

    I think this is unrelated to the above issue so sorry to thread-jack, but maybe helpful for others. When child window lock is engaged by the driver next to the window switches it also engages the automatic child door locks and the rear doors can only be opened from the outside. I thought my...

    Happy Holidays

    Merry Christmas to all that celebrate. My wife got me a little gag gift to match my Taycan Turbo S in the garage. I kind of love it. Didn’t even know this existed!

    Satellite view on nav - resets?

    Never mind. After letting the car sit for 90 minutes it’s back. Weird.

    Satellite view on nav - resets?

    I just noticed my option to have satellite view is missing on both the PCM main/passenger screen and the map tube view on the dash. Only the 3D map and range options are there. Satellite has disappeared, which was a great feature. Anyone else? I hope this isn’t another Google thing.

    Pre-Owned Taycan Turbo or New Taycan 4S?

    I would choose the Turbo. My experience was the following. It was September 2021 and I was waiting for an allocation to build a 4S that would have been around $140K with all of the options I wanted but I was in holding pattern probably for a few more months waiting in for an allocation. i was...

    Preheating with power from grid

    I do this too but I don’t think you need to toggle off the pre-heating. It shuts off and defaults to my normal climate setting as soon as I put the car in drive. I do need to toggle off Direct Charge and have at times forgot and did later on the app.

    My Porsche Website Location

    I figured out how to fix it. At the bottom of the My Porsche pages click My Porsche—>Questions and Answers. Then at the bottom of that page is a link to “Choose Another Country”. @Administrator, feel free to either delete this thread or leave it in case others have this issues.
