    Rear Motor replacement on '23 Taycan

    My ‘22 RWD has very noticeable gear noise. The dealer recorded the noise and sent to Germany. Porsche told them to change the trans fluid. Apparently that didn’t fix it because today they told me they have ordered a new “transmission”. I thought they would have to replace the whole drive...

    Weather Stripping Turning Green

    I just took my 22 RWD in for 5 problems including this one. They told me all 5 were normal despite not being able to replicate them on there other Taycans. I’m not going to live with this one…

    Damage to Battery shell

    This sounds insane to me for a 3mm dent. And the battery replacement cost of $50k sounds even more insane. I just left the dealer today and they said they are now changing single battery moduals. Why they think the entire battery would be damaged makes no sense.

    Redshift Performance Intro - Taycan ECU Performance Packages

    You really should be focused on the RWD. This is where your market is. It’s all of us that bought a Porsche thinking it was a high performance car and now hope the $40k KIA Ionic at the light next to us doesn’t want to get in front of us. Because our $100k Porsche will get blown away…. Really...

    Recall: High Voltage Battery May Short Circuit APB5 (2021-23) - December 13, 2023

    Just a thought and shear speculation: It says over voltage is the cause not overcharge. You use overvoltage as way to drive electrons and create amperage. The higher the over-voltage the greater the amperage. On a car designed to charge at 270kw, you have to drive a lot of amperage requiring...

    Got a "ticket" for parking in a EV spot

    I would have looked around for an EV parked in a normal spot and hung a note on his window saying “before you hang notes on cars you should learn what an Electric Vehicle is, a Porsche Taycan is one!”

    Taycan RWD loud whine from drivetrain?

    For those wondering this is the gear noise. It’s loud enough to pick up on a cell phone held by the passenger.

    Taycan RWD loud whine from drivetrain?

    the noise has a changing pitch with the rpm of the pinion gear. the amplitude will go up when frequency is in a dimension of the interior. We used to visualize balls filling the interior. When you hit the ball size that fits evenly you’ve found the wavelength of a standing wave. Then the...

    Taycan RWD loud whine from drivetrain?

    The volume can be different car to car based on the alignment of the pinion and ring gear. 20 years ago all hypoid gears were dykemed and ran in to check contact patches between the pinion and the ring gear. If they were off they were adjusted before shipping. I’m sure there’s a more modern...

    Bricked TTS - Goodwill Payment from PCNA

    I didn’t get that they’re paying you $12k…. I thought it was you paying them. Wow I never heard of that. And is the 2 year warranty an extension on the current warranty? This seems extremely generous, but maybe that’s just me.
