Also wonder if that chip was the reason for your delay while in production???

The electrically adjustable steering column is worthless to me. Once I set the steering column I rarely, if ever, adjust it again.

No, still showing On Vessel so a bit of a lag. Maybe tonight or Sunday night it’ll update.

The dealership will probably give me the updates from now on as when it clears port processing I think they’re invoiced by Porsche for the car.

As I have the bucket seats I don’t have comfort access in the car so it wouldn’t do anything anyway.

If that was the reason for the delay it comes back to the communication issues again.

From my experience once the car arrives in Port there is a very definite lag in TYD updates. One of my cars actually arrived at my dealer and TYD still indicated On Vessel.

You are correct - Your dealer will be invoiced when it completes port processing and they will have the more accurate info from this point forward.

Good luck.

Thanks! I've booked my flight to Chicago for Friday night in the hope that it's ready to take delivery on Saturday.
Not much longer for you to wait either. Looking forward to seeing pics of that GT3 when you get it.

The Turbo S had the same problem. Something about an interior monitor and a fast reflash of the computer. I think the monitors were not in stock so many cars were shipped without it and then installed at the dealer.

You'll have it soon.

Maybe the Memorial Day Holiday had something to do with the delay. However, two other vehicle carriers entered the port after the Siem Aristotle anchored outside, and one of them departed before the Siem Aristotle was allowed to enter.

The Bad News is that I was informed that my GT3 has been flagged with a "WNF5 Stop Delivery" notice. Apparently, a few thousand Panamera's, Taycan's, and 911's were either programmed incorrectly or with flawed software. Not sure when this issue was discovered. The cars were put on vessels but, can not be released for sale, or even road tested, until the Gateway Control Unit has been reprogrammed. Porsche will provide new software "shortly" (whatever that means).

So close.

That sucks. I thought you were done with delays. Any update on an ETA since?

My TYD updated today with an Actual Date of completion for Port Processing of 5/27 so hopefully that means I'm ok.
The dealer expects to have the car by 6/3 and I've got my trip planned to Chicago for the weekend.
Hoping to take deliver on Saturday 6/4 but I'm there until Monday night.
