I'd like to be considered for the prestigious "Smallest Bug" prize: yesterday the app started telling me that it doesn't know whether the rear right window is open. If Porsche can make such a stupid mistake in the app, imagine how bad the safety systems must be /s.

I'll wait until I have time to get the software update done before getting this egregious, nay, nightmarish defect corrected. In the meantime I'll try to sleep, but it will be touch and go.

And yes, I've done a PCM reset, I've parked the car under the stars for 4.3 hours, chanted three Hail Portias (goddess of sporty EVs), locked and unlocked the vehicle, reset my phone and driven the vehicle many kilometres.

are you serious?
why is it a „bug“ ? obviously the sensor that informs the system about the position of this window is faulty. so the app does not know. try to open and close the window. if its still persistent ignore the message until the sensor is replaced.

Humour plainly isn’t universal, but I thought the tone and the “/s” sarcasm notifier would do the trick. I was mildly pillorying the recent trend for massively overreacting to tiny things in this forum.

So no, I’m not being serious, although the problem is real.

Consider yourself lucky that the window doesn’t roll itself down….
And this is a serious reply
