My November order TYD has been working, but it hasn't started production yet. Dunno about other features but it does provide current status.

At the time I initially tried to follow the TYD link the Porsche servers were having technical difficulties and my TYD link expired. It stayed in the expired state. I submitted a service request at Porsche Customer Service North America. About 2 days later my 4S showed up in the app. Later that...

Yeah, I was just thinking that many of the software and perhaps hardware issues that some have been complaining about have been fixed for model year 2025 before delivery. So there is less worry of being unhappy out of the gate. Earlier builds should get updated along the way. In my...

As I was walking through the dealer the other day one of the SAs mentioned that 2025s come from the factory with 2.1 software which is much more solid than the 2.0 of the 2024 model and includes OTA update. Dunno how accurate, but he mentioned it. My 4s went into locked status yesterday. Won't...

Looks like the 4S I recently ordered, less roof rails. Best of luck with yours.

Does this recall apply to both the std and HD matrix headlights? I think one of the rubs the US had at one time is that individual LEDs could be programmed brighter than spec. They didn't trust software (third party programmers) and wanted a hardware limit.

Yes, my EV experience has been ~50% drop in range from 50 degrees F to 20, unless switched to the highest eco and regen modes, inflate the tires to more than recommended when measured cold (at 20), wearing a heavy jacket and turn the heat way down, and stay below 60 mph if you can. 50 mph...

Thanks, out of curiosity I was wondering why the freeze date was the end of November but they were not planning to start production till mid Jan. Where the typical freeze to prod complete is about 3 weeks, this is 6 weeks. That could make some sense to me if everything shuts down for awhile, but...

Thanks, wasn't so much worry, just curious.

Yesterday the freeze point was completed, today it was pulled back. Unusual?: 11/28: freeze point complete 11/28. 11/29: Freeze date 12/1/24 Manufacturing process begins soon 12/11/24 Manufacturing process begins 1/12/25 Manufacturing process complete 1/18/25 Departs German port 1/22/25 -...

Just to add that my expectations were high. I've owned quite few performance cars over the years, but no porsche. The 4 I test drove did not impress me, very nice car but the throttle response and feel for the road was different than I expected. The 4S and turbo are like different cars...

Is there a factory shutdown over the holidays?

Updated today: Freeze date 11/28/24 Manufacturing process begins soon 12/8/24 Manufacturing process begins 1/8/25 Manufacturing process complete 1/14/25 Departs German port 1/18/25 - 2/9/25 Arrives Local port 1/31/25 - 2/28/25 En route to dealer 2/2/25 - 3/12/25 (Dealer estimates delivery2/21/25)

Its not that simple. There are matrix headlights that do comply with the US standards that are to be certified at some point. The US standard is much different/more stringent as far as hardware, let alone software specs. Macan matrix lights are not hardware compliant. There is specs on...

As been discussed elsewhere, Porsche's LEDs do not comply with the US standards that were passed. There is no software only compliant upgrade. I would not count on Porche offering a retrofit option as both hardware and software as well as certification for the model year would be required. I...

I started reading through this thread and gave up. I dunno if it was mentioned that a 60 amp breaker on a wire run and outlet that only supports 50-55 amp continuous will have more resistance and a larger voltage drop at high current than wiring rated for 60 amp. This gets turned into heat and...

Does the neutered matrix headlights the US gets adapt to road sign reflection?

Yes, annoying I think most if all other brands work the same way. I also don't like how light reflected from road signs can switch to low beams. I haven't used auto high beams in years because of that. Same with the side turn lighting, always turns off when most inconvenient. I dunno of any...

I was invited to track my dream today (I'm in the US): Timeline for my 4S: √ Freeze date 12/2/24 √ Manufacturing process begins soon 12/12/24 (actual 12/13) Manufacturing process begins 1/13/25 Manufacturing process complete 1/19/25 Departs German port 1/23/25 - 2/14/25 Arrives Local port...
