    AC charging past 80% energy waste ?!

    Yes that was my question. If the power draw from the house grid gets lesser as the porsche AC/dc converter draws less is what I was hoping for. Just wasn’t sure if that’s the case. Thank you for yours and everyone’s input.

    AC charging past 80% energy waste ?!

    Wanted to see if anyone out there knows On DC charging it is straight forward. The closer you are when charging to 100% SoC the lesser you car will draw from the charging station. But how is it with AC charging ? I ask to know if you actually waste AC energy when you charge your car past...

    Sharing Exp- installed BLACKVUE DASHCAM – DR970X-2CH LTE

    it is tricky as it seems the hotspot has to be turn on and off(reset) each time you start the car. At least that is how it is on my car. it may connect to the SSID but the internet backend needs to be reset. (My personal experience)

    Suddenly AC charging won’t charge faster then 3.x kWh usually get 9.x KWh

    Anyone seen this before. ? I get no more radio or music from Apple or android auto. Navigation audio still works.

    Any perspective on protective wraps if they are worth the cost ?

    With GEICO here in the US it is the opposite. They told me PPF repair is more expensive than the Paint Job that is why they won't cover/pay for PPF damage.

    Coding Options

All coding is now encrypted and needs to be decrypted and approved on the server level (Germany) I was told. Nothing you can do locally anymore unless you find a way to crack the...
