Couldn't have been doing 5kw, because that would be 41.7 amps pulled at 120V. At most, if it was a 20A rated circuit, it could have done 2.4kw.

Wow, yep, last changed in 1996. So if it's using a timezone file that old there will be a lot of problems in the US as well.

It could be that it doesn't have the correct timezone data for the location, especially if the time change day was recently (last few years) changed). Similar would happen on Linux if someone doesn't update the tzdata package.

US DOT does allowed full matrix headlights for the last year or 2, but so far no manufacturer has decided to go through the hassle of modifying and getting their Euro spec system certified for the US (DOT, in their infinite wisdom, decided to have much more stringent timing constraints than what...

I found the motion sickness was due to the adaptive braking. Once I turned that off it was fine. But I am looking forward to switching to the Macan EV next year. The test drive was so much better than my iX.

I found out the hard way that modifying an order, even removing something that isn't actually build into the car, and push the lock and delivery dates back when it is submitted. Just a heads up to others that it could happen.

It took a while to read it all (60 pages in that thread), but there are at least 3 people that had it happen to them in that thread, with claimed knowledge of at least 2 others.

I'm just going based on what the Audi dealer told me when I ordered my 2012 A6, the Jaguar dealer told me when I ordered my 2019 i-Pace, and the BMW dealer told me when I ordered by 2022 iX. Each time when I spec'ed the car to order they said I shouldn't get it if we had or we're planning to...

I think I wasn't clear. Having them is the safety concern if you have small children. It's the same reason you aren't supposed to put a car seat in the front, which is that the airbags are dangerous when combined with car seats.

It's a safety concern if you put a car seat in the back seat. If you get it's generally recommended to only put a car seat in the middle of the back.

Is it usually the first X minutes after starting the car when it had been off for an extended period? If so it could be it has to recalibrate the compass for some reason and needs you to drive in circles a few times (doing donuts would work). :)

I definitely don't care much about the self parking. What I wish it did have is the ability to use the app to back the car in and out of a spot while you're not in the car. Very useful for a tight garage or if some a**hat parks so close to your car you can't open the door (I've had to do that...

My BMW iX 50 has it (shows cars next to or in front of me in current and adjacent lanes). Has since I purchased it in late 2022.

Personally I wish states would get rid of the gas tax and instead have a registration fee based on vehicle weight and estimated milage (with a true-up each year based on a vehicle inspection that checks the odometer). Then they could charge a lower rate if they want to incentivize ZEVs, but the...

Mine is on order (delivery in Q1), so unfortunately I can't just go look, but which side is which? I'll need to park on a specific side of the garage because the approach angle / curve is tight and makes my wife a bit nervous to park on one of the sides.

Just to clarify, isn't one of the ports AC only and the other AC+DC?

You can blame National Automobile Dealers Association for that. Manufacturers aren't allowed to compete with dealers because of franchise rules they got put into place. Tesla, Lucid, and Rivian are able to avoid that in some states because they never had franchises, but there have been court...

The order I placed ~6 weeks ago just shows "LED-Matrix Design Headlights in Black", but it is code 8IV, which is the same code the build page shows now for the "LED-Matrix Design Headlights in Black incl. Porsche Dynamic Light System Plus (PDLS+)". So I think they just changed the description...

Is that definitely correct, or is it the rent charge portion of the payments, which would exclude the interest portion. That's what I've normally seen for buyouts, but I've never dealt with Porsche before.

So long as the early buyout and fees isn't bad you could do the lease and then buy it out a week later.
