    Carbon fiber seat back covers with installation steps

    Very cool. I'd like them just for the purpose of holding up better when my kids kick the back of the seats!

    Swap 2023 Taycan CT battery with Taycan 2025 CT

    Who knows.. maybe it will be like the steering wheel upgrade they offered to early PDK cars that an up/down button on each side instead of an up paddle on the right and down paddle on the left. They made it available and expensive and I know loads of people paid for it. The same could be true...

    EV sport sound without using speakers

    That's interesting, I've always wondered what could be done with something like that.

    Taycan Brakes fail in wet conditions - NHTSA complaint March 2, 2023

    Yeah, when this new rain issue happened to me, the pedal did not go to the floor, I had to press on it a bit harder and the discs felt like they were doing very little, but then grabbed hard and made a horrible shudder / vibration. If it's letting go entirely, I would have the dealer looking at...

    Taycan Brakes fail in wet conditions - NHTSA complaint March 2, 2023

    Reading through that ^ again, I'm thinking what I did braking 5 times to a full stop in short succession somehow accellerated or reset the ‘Brake Refresh’ or Stiff Learning Routine’ functions [insert gutter jokes here]

    Taycan Brakes fail in wet conditions - NHTSA complaint March 2, 2023

    Not so much jamming on the brakes. It's tricky since to some extent, no matter how hard you brake the car slows 100% with regen until the last bit where you need to come to a complete stop. I belive in normal braking the regen stops and the discs take over <5mph. So with that, I pulled out of my...

    Taycan Brakes fail in wet conditions - NHTSA complaint March 2, 2023

    I'll keep testing it, but I honestly feel like I've cracked it with the recent bedding procedure. When it first happened to the extent that I recently experienced, it was really bad, dangerous and annoying. I was ready to take the car back to Porsche and consider giving it back entirely, but it...

    Taycan Brakes fail in wet conditions - NHTSA complaint March 2, 2023

    So more rain today and fairly cold and my brakes are behaving normally and the pedal is firm and consistent. I'm really thinking my reset, the 5 deliberate stops to bed the brakes helped and maybe recalibrated something between the pedal, booster and calipers. The reality is I mostly just...

    Taycan Brakes fail in wet conditions - NHTSA complaint March 2, 2023

    For me, the most recent issue which sounds a lot like yours is in the rain, or cold damp mornings where you can imagine there is condensation on the brakes. While I've only had one shot at running my experiement bedding the brakes, it did seem to work well. It seems that Porsche, particularly...

    Taycan Brakes fail in wet conditions - NHTSA complaint March 2, 2023

    Digging up an old topic here, but has anyone had any resolve on this? I have a CT4S with PSCBs For some context, I've been around the block on brake issues on my car, it's been back probably half a dozen times and spent over 100 days in service to solve the soft pedal issue. After the booster...

    2024 4S Battery Issue

    My '21 CT4S is normally around 185 miles at 85%... and I generally drive it really easy... coasting around town for 5-10 miles to drop the kids off before setting the cruising on the highway btw 55 and 70 for a 15 mile commute to the city. Not sure if it's the extra weight of the hatch or...

    I’ll say it .. Gen 1 Taycan styling will never get old

    This is where my head is as well. I love my Taycan CT4S, spec'd it out just the way I wanted it and never thought I'd have the privelage of having such a premium car to call my own, but I definitely have more than a tinge of envy over the new car's increased range, efficiency and performance...

    [DEBUNKED]: Taycan Cross Turismo to be discontinued in US soon

    What is that wheel and tire setup? I like the meaty sidewalls.

    Paddle Shifters / Additional Dial On GT Model

    I like the idea of that. On my eGolf you can cycle through three modes of regen by moving the shifter left or right, but if you pull back on it, it goes to max regen. I treat it light I'm downshifting when coming into a corner and it works great. I agree with Porsche's philosophy of coasting and...

    Throttle and Brake Remap for MY2023+?

    I've had repeat issues with my brake pedal travel on MY2022 CT, but no issues on MY2020 Turbo even though the Turbo has done a lot of miles.. On my CT, they replaced the booster, bled the brakes several times, replaced the ABS unit, bled everything again and it seemed to have gotten better...

    Lucid vs Taycan

    Wow, awesome! That is some serious ADHD. I have an early 4SCT (took delivery Nov 2021) and have a 2020 Turbo with my business. I've been curious about the better range and performance of af the GTS ST, at least on paper and am starting to wonder if it might be worth trading up, although I've...

    Lucid vs Taycan

    I'm curious to hear how you've had three Taycans already, what the impetus was to trade-in upgrade and how they all compare to each other.

    Taycan Raw Motor and Shifting Sound Recording (From Laguna Seca Track)

    Admidedly, it's at an annoying frequency, but further proof that EVs aren't silent. I would like to see a future where manufacturers tune what you hear out of the natural sounds of the motor... so, like a sport exhaust, your sport option is a different case with chambers and resonators that tune...

    Broken DC Flap Causes Bad Charging Day

    Sorry to hear that. For what it's worth, I stopped at a Tesla Magic Dock charger in upstate New York on my way back from the Grand Prix in Montreal and had no issues. Incidentally, I wasn't seeking it out, it was just the next closest option when the EVolve NY charger I tried to go to first...
