my money is on Porsche EVSE - the North American versions just continuously has problems - many many many Taycan owners gave up on Porsche EVSE's and moved onto any of many excellent high quality alternatives. the Porsche unit offers no advantages and many downsides…cut your loses and move on.

the standard 20" wheels block most of the view.

all this seems not too bad - but maybe I"m more tolerant than you.
