I haven't come across the problem before but I am increasingly hearing of modern cars thinking for themselves (as they are designed to do), the trouble is they sometimes become disoriented and feeling they must try and behave normally they put 2 and 2 together and make five. Usually it is a case of automatic windows that are closed before they expect to be closed and think they have encountered an obstruction and so go into reverse. I think it needs dealer diagnostic equipment to reset these things...

Of the 2 I'd rather own the Taycan. When you look at the specs the Taycan is the faster one not only in a straight line but on the track. Engineering Explained did a great video on this (https://www.taycanevforum.com/threads/why-the-taycan-turbo-s-is-faster-than-the-tesla-model-s.1165/) It also comes with the Porsche pedigree, engineering, and dealer network. The Model S has a higher range but I'd bite the bullet for the Taycan.

Most auto upholstery shops can fix this - mine cost about $600 for a tinted plastic. Clear plastic was the same cost. I had mine done in Costa Mesa, CA

It is likely the blower motor is defective or the connector is burnt or the dash switch is defective, Also the blower motor brushes may just be worn out, when it stops hit the motor with a hammer handle and see if it starts, check all connectors for signs of overheating as well.

You have to visit a dealers parts Dept. they need the VIN from the lower left of the windshield, the number off the radio (if available) and most important proof of ownership, they will call for the code. I hope this helps. Take care.

I have been hearing and experiencing some sort of reservoir of water swishing around in the passenger side of my 2004 Cayenne. The carpet is soggy and there is evidence of moisture intrusion when I open the doors. There is a film of moisture on around the lower door jams. Of course Porsche is nowhere to be found in this discussion. My beautiful car is now a camel and I can not findc a descent explanation anywhere. Your post is the closest thing I can find. And did the "garage" charge you to extract the five buckets of water? The folks at Porcsche have no idea and no one else has "had" the problem. WTF?

Take out the battery , fully charge it over night , reconnect and done...
If not adjust the sensitivity screw on the alarm...

That’s a question for You Tube or the dealer of course. More than likely something electronic got wet and is causing this. Try you tube and you will see if others have had the same problem. Then u may get a fix.

Hi I have the same problem on my 1999 Carrea, I had the windows at the rear stuck down and the roof latch keeps open and closing, I have not solved this yet it could be a relay but it all started when I was opening and closing on the keypad, if you get the roof up and cant get the rear windows to close get the roof closed to a locking position and where the hood lock pulls back at the roof lock station slide a thin s crew driver up the side of the lock hook they close then, also a tip, if you stick your little finger in the hole where the hood lock goes and press both the rear window buttons up they close when the roof is down. if anyone knows why my hood wont lock please let me know

Check the basics :
1. Load test battery @ half of cold cranking amps.
2. Check charging system
Then go back and check them again.
