  1. Glad to be done with Porsche and Taycan

    I will add to this that unfortunately I was in an accident with my 4S . Current estimate is about $30k. The problem as you might guess is parts with no good estimate as to when they will be available. And I’m told the repair will take about three month once all the parts have been received. I’m...
  2. Overly cautious with my Taycan

    I felt the same way and then a Ram pickup ran into the drivers door and did damage all the back. Initial estimate at $20k and counting. Waiting for parts and thinking months with diminished value. I might be done with high end cars. Cars are a utility. Wish it had been totaled.
  3. Anyone bored of EV?

    I have Taycan which I do enjoy but it bothers me having a $100k+ car that I miles between charges. And now Porsche has doubled my charge time with the fix. The public charging infrastructure is poor and not improving at a rate that will support the desired conversion to ev.
  4. [North America] - this is getting embarrassing - Porsche nerfing/neutering the PMCC via OTA update?

    As a update I’ve spent over two hours on the phone with PCNA and opened a case with them requesting compensation for my purchase of a third party charger allowing me to charge at the 40 amps promised for their charger. My request has be declined and their position is that they have solved the...
  5. Heat problem when charging

    I’m having the heat problem when charging and my charger has been cut back to 20 amps which solves the problem . This is too slow but it is Porsches solution to make up for a poorly engineered charger. Is anyon using ChargePoint or wall box and do the run sufficiently cooler at 40 amps.
  6. Need a Class Action Lawsuit - Porsche Mobile Charger

    I don’t disagree. What third party charger would you suggest that will deliver a cool 40 amps?
  7. To RWD or 4s? That is the question...

    I own a 4S that was in for service today. Loaner was a base rear wheel drive and it was a wet day. While the power was ok if I got on it at all the backend was all over the road. I will stay with 4S
  8. Variable light roof

    Does anyone have any hands on experience with the variable panorama roof? I’m I Florida and the standard panoram roof is getting pretty hot. The questions are is the optional roof cooler when closed and does really let in less ligHt?
  9. Charging Error - induced by trickle charger?

    Yes. I had this same message several times. I found my charging cable was getting very hot and in my case I’m convinced that was the cause of the error. The cable was replace and that has solved the problem. I was also able to mitigate the problem by reducing the charging amps a bit to 30 amps...
  10. Taycan 12v battery issue

    I’ve not done a lot of research but I think the owners manual suggests the car plugged in and that a maintainer be put on the 12 volt battery. CTEK has one available on Amazon for about $113. I just bought one before I leave for about 6 weeks. Read the owners manual rather than rely on the...
  11. A Tale of two Taycans - PCA Panorama magazine

    Well done story all..it’s so easy to hit something in the road and that was a huge amount of damage. Let’s hope it was an exception.
  12. Year 22 allocations.

    As I understand it, with the exception of allocations that dealers now have, you will not be able to order a Taycan for the remainder of the year.

    I have been told by my dealer there will be no more allocations in year 2022.
  14. Year 22 allocations.

    I have been waiting for a CT 4S allocation and was told by my SA that per Porsche there will be no more allocations for the remainder of 2022. This applies to all models. I have to long standing relationship with this dealer and have no reason to doubt the information. This includes 2023...
  15. PMCC Overheating when done charging?!

    I had the same problem. My charging cable was getting very hot at the car plug. Over 130 degrees and most likely causing the error. My cable was replaced under warranty and it runs 30/40 degrees cooler. No more errors, problem solved. I think this is a known problem.
  16. Error during charging Message

    I have had the same message and it is now resolved. I found my charging cable was getting very hot. 130 degree or more where the cable goes into the plug I did a lot of experimenting. I reduced the charge amps to 30 and the cable was cooler and no more errors. I also tried a second cable and the...
  17. Damage to Mission E Wheels

    In the US but my dealer has a great wheel man. I had one fixed this weekend in 30 min. Notrace of the damage
  18. Speedometer Error

    My 2020 4S seems to have an inaccurate speedometer. It reads about 3mph high. I’ve checked against several sources so I’m quite sure it is off. Has anyone else experienced this and do you know if there is any correction. The tire size is set correctly.
  19. CT utility

    Thank you. Just what I needed
  20. CT utility

    I’m thinking about going from a 4S to a CT. Can anyone tell me how high an item can fit in the rear and close the hatch. Thanks.
