    PSA for NA owners: do not bring your PMCC to dealer

    Brought my car in today for routine service. Not surprised to hear there is a recall on the PMCC which was posted on here a few weeks ago. However, what surpised me was how this recall is being done. Porsche basically CONFISCATED my PMCC, citing the cables are overheating leading to damage. I...

    Under the cover look at PDSL+ matrix

    Lol Main beam is fixed, definitely no cornering ability. Unfortunately our matrix is deactivated thanks to our southern brothers so never got to see matrix cornering lights in action

    Safe to drive with broken headlight cover?

    What a week for me... 2 fender benders in my 4S in about 4 days... latest one resulted in a broken headlight cover. The light is still working but am a little concerned about the potential of water ingress and electronic issues. Of course can't even get the porsche approved bodyshop to even...

    Never seen this feature before: intersection/cross traffic warning?

    In a 22 loaner 4S, interestingly this car had a feature I've never seen before. Appears to be intersection/cross traffic warning? I have ACC as well as nearly all safety options specced on my car yet I've never seen this warning before. Occasionally when backing up I've seen the red arrows...

    PSA for NA owners: DO NOT install APA2 update

    Took my Taycan in for some minor issues. Advisor mentioned that I am due APA2 update which he called software update to instrument cluster. I figured why not. Turns out all this update adds is an annoying seat belt warning for the driver. Now the car will do an annoying "ding-dong" every time...

    Look at what showed up at out local Porsche Centre - Richmond, Canada

    My service advisor knew very little about the car. He said it arrived unexpectedly amongst a shipment of new deliveries. Sadly it is not for sale lol.

    Phone calls not ringing through PCM?

    I just realised that the PCM will not ring if I get a call (connected to car via Bluetooth). The phone's ringer will ring but of course occasionally the radio or chatting will drone that out. I also haven't seen any alerts on PCM... If radio is on it'll automatically stop and a small green...

    Looking for: NA front license holder

    Recently moved into a province that's pretty strict at enforcing front license plates but sadly lost mine during the move. Does anyone have a spare front license holder for sale? For North American style plates. Thanks! Edit: Thanks to Joe (@JRNJTAYCAN) who sent me one!

    No more map display in the instrument cluster since PCM6 update

    Just took my car back following the PCM 6 update. Now on version 3793. Seems like I no longer have the ability to display/navigation in the instrument cluster display. Is this a feature that was removed or just another bug I am experiencing? See photo below:

    How subtle are the cornering lights?

    I have only seen videos of modern LED cornering lights in action (eg here: ). As you can see, the cornering function is very obvious. I have driven my PDLS+Matrix lights on some very twisty roads at night but I have never seen our lights like above. Are Porsche's cornering lights just that...

    Finally happened... Pulled over for tint

    Vancouver Canada here. When I got the tint installed on all 4 windows, my installer warned cops would pay more attention to the car as its unique, so we ended up doing 30% only. Fairly subtle IMO. 5000km later, pulled over by a grumpy cop and got a $80 ticket. I almost told the cop I'd give...

    Seat heating/cooling balance not saved?

    I prefer to have the seat back a little warmer than the seat so was glad to see the Taycan offers a heating/cooling balance for the front seats. However it doesn't appear these settings are saved after the car is turned off? Read the manual and it does mention that these settings are meant to...

    Do you guys deploy spoiler when in touchless carwash?

    I often use the touchless carwash in my condo and only today I discovered how much water and soap collects under the spoiler. See attached photo, the soap foam was literally coming out for about 10 seconds. Am I meant to deploy the spoiler position to clean setting when going through a...

    Does your Porsche Centre put the car in private mode when in for service?

    Dropped off my 22 Taycan for some minor repairs and almost immediately the Porsche widget onSee my phone is displaying blanks. Turns out the dealer put the car in private mode. Is this routine practice? Seems a little odd.

    What do all these icons on the PCM mean?

    Been having a hard time deciphering these icons... Particularly the diamond with 2 cars? Occasionally I also see an icon shaped like a tower with a round thing at the top. Looked in the menu and google with no help. Thanks!

    WANTED: 25ft cable to PMCC

    My PMCC sadly came with the very short 3ft cable. Looking for the longer 25ft if anyone is selling. Happy to mail you my short cable back to you so you have a "complete" set. Thanks.

    User profile selection now gone - something going at Porsche?

    My 22 4S is barely a month old, I did have the dreaded "registration not available" problem when I first got the car which needed a trip back to the dealer. And now it appears the user profile selection is gone completely. No names display at the top, not even "Guest". And when I try to...

    Any aftermarket cables for the PMCC?

    I mistakenly did not spec the free 7m charging cable when I ordered my Taycan. I find the included cable too short for my needs even with my plug located directly in front of my parking spot. Called my dealer today and they wanted $800 for a new cable! Absolutely insane. Anyone know of a...

    Spoiler cleaning position - can barely get a finger in

    First wash of my 22 4S. Wanted to give it a good clean including the spoilers. Damned thing lifted barely half an inch, not really enough room to soap it up and give it a good clean. It had collected visible dirt in there but the best I could do was give it a rinse. Almost seems Porsche...
