How often will I need Porsche Taycan differential service?

Why is the malfunction indicator light (MIL) on in my Taycan?

The malfunction indicator light — also known as the check engine light — on your Taycan can illuminate for a variety of reasons, including engine issues, electrical problems, damaged sensors, transmission problems, misfires, and faulty connections.

Can you clear the Taycan check engine light on your own?

While it’s sometimes possible to clear a malfunction warning light at home, it’s never recommended. If your Taycan’s check engine light comes on, it’s usually because there is a problem in one of the vehicle’s systems.

By simply resetting the check engine light, you may temporarily get rid of the light, but the underlying problem is still there. It will only be a matter of time before the light comes back.

How worried should I be about a drivetrain malfunction in my Taycan?

A drivetrain malfunction in your Taycan should never be taken lightly. Driving with a malfunctioning drivetrain can put you in danger and lead to further vehicle damage, so it's essential to have a qualified mechanic assess and repair the problem as soon as possible.

Is the transmission considered part of the drivetrain in my Taycan?

The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your Taycan forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.
