    4-year service

    Greetings all, Has anyone gotten the 4-year/40k mile service done and has an idea of the cost and what is actually conducted? I just got a quote from a dealer in Richmond for $1600 and all he could tell me was that they conduct a brake flush, coolant tipoff (I guess the HVAC battery has special...

    WTB 21” Taycan Exclusive Wheels in jet black metallic

    Greetings all, long story short: I hit a patch of salt and lost control of my car while getting onto the interstate and curbed my front left wheel so badly that it now needs replacement. Does anyone have any 21” Taycan Exclusive Wheels in jet black metallic laying around somewhere? Replacement...

    Safelite Quote

    Greetings all, Over the last year, my windshield has been beaten to heck. I was looking at Safelite to get a quote for replacement and the cost was a whopping $520 for a full replacement. This seems EXTREMELY low and I wanted to get a sanity check from you guys. I'm sure they don't use OEM...

    Electrify America Issues

    Greetings all, it’s time for another delve into the reasons why EA stinks! But not for the reason you may think…. Anywho, for the last ~17 days, EA chargers refuse to recognize my payment method via Plug&Charge, and every time I require a charge I’ve had to call customer support, explain the...

    My Porsche Problems

    Greetings all, My MyPorsche app randomly decided to stop syncing to my car. No idea why, but whenever I get on the app it says my car is either in standby mode or there’s no connection. I’ve tried relogging in, trying to get the app to connect while my phone was physically connected to the car...

    PCM Update Coming?

    Greetings all, I haven’t been on in a bit. I just came back from a fantastic road trip to Tail of the Dragon (this car absolutely blew my mind with its performance in the twisties) which I’d love to chat with you guys about in another thread. Anywho, with the facelifted Cayenne out and about...

    Brake Squeak

    Greetings all, I’ve had my GTS since December, and she has 13k miles on her (She’s my road dog for sure). I noticed that if I depress the brake pedal ever so slightly at a particular pressure I notice a faint squeaking noise. There’s no possible way the pads need to be replaced, so I’m asking...

    Bad news, Another Taycan is Down

    Greetings all. Somber news this evening. I got in my car, disconnected my AC charger, turned the car on and was met with the Electrical System Fault, park car error message in blood red. The car would not go into gear, and is now a very heavy, expensive, and beautiful paperweight. I'm going to...

    Ackerman Fix?

    Greetings all, I have 21” wheels and in colder temps my tires frequently rub when I’m turning out of my garage/onto the road/etc. Is there anything that can be done about this other than getting smaller wheels?

    Low temp charging

    Greetings all, Has anyone using EA experienced lower charging speeds at chargers at sub 40°F temperatures? I pulled up to a 350kW charger, battery at 9% and preheated to 101° ready to go, started getting 95kW and then barely pulled 140kW for like 5 minutes while at 20% SoC. It then went right...

    Rock Chips

    Greetings all, How has everyone’s experience been with rock chips? I’ve driven the car to FL from VA and will be driving back later this week. I have so far counted nearly 20 rock chips on the hood and fenders, and picked up a multiple chips and a crack on my windshield in the 800 miles I’ve...

    Charging Etiquette

    Greetings all, My charging escapades were subpar today (due to people, not EA), and I wanted to get you all's seasoned opinions as I'm still new to this. I have never charged my car at a 350kw station so I ventured to one, and went to a subsequent station out of necessity later in the day. For...

    DC Area Taycan Meetup/Drive

    Greetings all! Being that the Siem Confucius has finally blessed most of us with our lovely machines (mine is at long last in my garage) I thought we could plan a meet up of some sorts! PCA driving events are pretty much non-existent during the winter so why not take a DIY approach right...

    Dealer Goodies at delivery?

    Greetings all, As it is another slow and dreary day looking at the apathetic progress of my vehicle's journey from Zuffenhausen to Baltimore, I had a brief chat with my SA about some goodies/complimentary services to expect at the dealer level when it's time for delivery. What have you all's...

    Are ADMs still a thing?

    Greetings all, I'd like to take my mind off of the endless delays and sadness that are confounding a lot of us on here (myself included) and talk about something else. For anyone that has recently bought either a CPO Taycan or reserved an allocation: are dealers still charging ADM or has the...

    Are Taycans being delivered?

    Greetings all, As some of you may know, I’m currently waiting on my Taycan GTS, which was produced a few weeks ago but is being held at the factory most likely for a 12V battery. I also have a family member of mine who had his Taycan RWD built last month and his car is still waiting at the...

    Dashcam Recommendations

    Greetings all, I was thinking to myself that since this will be my first 6-figure car, it would behoove me to get a dash cam fitted once she arrives for CYA purposes. Do you all have any experience (good and bad) or recommendations for which cams to use?

    Had my first EV experience….(Tesla)

    Greetings all. I’m currently visiting some friends in San Francisco and had the opportunity to use Turo to rent a car for a couple of days. I decided to get a model 3 since I have no first hand experience with EV’s up to this point and have a GTS on the way. I can definitively say that I am...

    Turbo Front Spoiler Conversion

    Greetings all, Has anyone tested the waters of installing this conversion kit from Suncoast? I would love to get this and have it painted in gloss black to match the rest of the lower-body trim of the GTS but I have no idea if this is a DIY kind of thing or if it'll be cost prohibitive with...
