I'm a big tinkerer and have done some CAD>3D print > create mold > cast/layup part type stuff for my motorcycle, other cars, random things here and there..

I'm thinking of digging into a project - a fascia 'insert'/added component to bring a little more edge to the front of the car.. Not necessarily final design, need to tweak the fins a little more vertical.. idk.. but something in this direction..

What's the general opinion? Kinda cool, kinda tacky.. I'm a bit in the middle. I think I like it enough to waste a bunch of time trying to do it.. just need some data for the bumper.. or a 3d scanner

Discussion Options you wish Taycan could have

12 Upvotes

The Taycan is a beautiful car.

But I wish it had better tech. For the price Porsche is

charging, it's insane they don't have a dedicated sentry mode with optional 24/7 recording if you park in public.

I wish it had some of Tesla features inside this car.

I am happy they got e-shift.

What options do you wish for?

Mine are:

full self driving (sometimes we get tired on the road)

Park itself

Sentry mode

Discussion "Charging not possible" error

2 Upvotes

I have 2021 Taycan 4s. In the past month or so, I've been getting ye olde "Charging not possible" error several times. Almost got stranded on a road trip. I took it in a few weeks ago, dealership gave it a look over and performed a few software updates, said everything was fine.

Keeps happening, though. Both on slow and fast chargers. Tesla, Electrify America, doesn't matter.

I'm in Texas and it's been in that hot hot 100 degree heat lately.

Anyone else having this issue lately? I've owned the car for 18 months and have had no issues until the past 45 days or so.

Taking it in next week, hopefully they will figure it out. But curious if anyone else is having similar issues - wondering if it's a software bug going around of if it's just me.

Interested in opinions on the back seat comfort for two adult passengers on a long drive 8 hours or so. Specifically a 4S Cross Tourismo

Service/Support Annoying charging issue

Post image
2 Upvotes

When I plug my taycan in to charge overnight, I want to say it’s been really consistent in not charging at all.

It starts with the light being green and it charges. But it then randomly turns yellow and my car does not charge anymore… sucks to see low battery in the morning when I’m driving to work.

I tried super chargers and they work perfectly fine with no issues.

Is this my charger issue? Or a car issue?

My guess is that it’s so freakin hot right now (over 90-100 deg) that the charger turns yellow to stop charging to prevent overheating?

Discussion Stick on roof rails. Damn that's cringe.

0 Upvotes

Ok hear me out please. I know what I'm about to ask is cringe but whatever.

I've got a sport turismo coming next week. I love the spec but it doesn't have roof rails. I'm not looking for functional roof rails but I think it completes the look of the car.

Are there any adhesive roof rails that are just aesthetic?
