85F is not preheated, it's closer to 100F when it's properly preheated. And there's no way to command preheated, you need to make the charging station the destination, the actually station in the car's navigation POI database, not the GPS coordinates. If the Porsche dealership's charger...
This is all great except delivery of the first trickle of vehicles is first half of 2026….. THAT is a joke, I smell a repeat of MSRP gate that cratered their stock and reputation. AKA, I’ll believe it when I see it.
That’s great, that means your car with you driving it in those conditions achieved >3 miles / kwh. I’ve never seen more than 2.8 and average 2.4 and there’s nothing wrong with my car or battery. It’s due to the wheels, tires and driving style and I’m completely satisfied with my situation, YMMV 👍
EXACTLY, it has nothing to do with how you’re charging, the car now has a much larger data sample and that sample is at a higher consumption rate.
Take a look at some of your trip data. Around town you probably average about 2.7 or 2.8 miles/ kWh. On the roadtrip, if you drive like me and...
Sounds like the previous owner lived on a dirt road and wasn’t all that conscious of the damage he/she was doing. I would be concerned about accelerated suspension wear. No one talks about it much but shocks and bushings are wear items and they aren’t cheap to replace.
I think a lot has to do with them not optimizing power delivery for the EPA cycle or economy in general, defaulting to range mode or having wheel/tire options that are not optimal for range.
Example, our Model 3 performance would routinely claim 295 mile range on a full charge and NEVER come...
But back to the OP's comments, I’d be perfectly fine if they stopped importing the CT/ST Taycan's once the Macan EV hits the dealers. It only makes mine more rare and potential able to hold it's value but I don't really expect that to happen.
Technically every car bought by a dealer is "made to order" but I believe you meant were "customer orders". But contrary to what your west coast greedy dealers may be telling you, that is no longer the case. Dealerships who decide to fully consume their allocations have been ordering them for...
No, never trust the dealer but you don’t need to, it’s published on the Porsche Canada website.

If all service and maintenance appointments have been carried out at a Porsche Centre, the Porsche Approved Warranty Extension can be added to an existing warranty without a 111-point check...
We haven’t been able to connect since Nov 12th, the last time it sent stats to the mother ship. Been to the dealer for the battery recall (I’m good) and the latest major PCM update and the car can now talk to Porsche but it will not accept any Porsche ID, fails authentication. Been using the...
I have 2 fronts (265/35x21) and 1 rear (305/30x21) Taycan spec tires with <3000 highway miles (7.5/32’s tread) that I’m considering selling. I had a puncture on one of the rears and am considering swapping over to different tires, just to try something different.
They are in Central Florida and...
Do you have a true Tesla DCFC (Supercharger) to CCS1 adaptor or the more readily available Tesla to J1772 adaptor?
Considering I’m only aware of 2 companies making a NACS to CCS1 DC adaptor, A2Z and Lectron and both are on preorder I don’t think you are buying these all day on Amazon.
Please...
No connection for over a week but the car's LTE has always shown connected and we have tried it from 4 separate devices, the car never shows connected. Not sure what cycling the power on my phone would have any effect on the car being able to talk to the Porsche servers.
It’s been 16 years since I lived in the Orlando area but the Discount Tire store in Apopka treated me right. I’m in Ormond Beach now and use the Discount store there and they have been great too.
They have had a couple turnovers in management over the last 5 years so it’s a new crew but they...
Like every Porsche ever built, there are specific jacking points that are described in detail in your owners manual. Read the section on jacking and tire replacement, it will tell you everything you need to know so you can communicate that to the guys at Discount Tire. It also includes the...
Actually I believe front toe is all they can do without removing the bumper. Because of the way the suspension is designed the only way to adjust camber is to shift the entire front axle assembly relative to the frame which requires the bumper to be removed to access the bolts. A pretty poor...
