About 2.5weeks ago I had a remote over the air software push on my car - I noticed it at first when I got in one morning and I had a speed sign image come up that’s never happened before (see photo). Since then I’ve noticed that other things have changed, for instance my drivers memory seat position is different, the car won’t remember settings I’ve previously had and tried to reset for the satnav and climate control.

However, the strangest thing is that I now have keyless entry, which I haven’t had before! It certainly isn’t on my options spec list. What’s even stranger is that it opens on approach, but I can’t seem to lock it unless I use the key fob.

Anyone else had similar changes recently?

A Taycan with buggy software - never!

The recent update that was just released (but needed to be carried out at the dealership) supposedly allows you to buy the keyless entry option. I've had a look in the app and website and can't see where you activate it. They did make a big deal about being able to retrospectively buy options on the Taycan and there did used to be a section on the website to look at all the things you couldn't buy (because a lot of them require new hardware) but this seems to have gone.

No idea why yours has gone keyless and I don't get that speed limit info on mine. Perhaps it's similar to the headlight issue mine apparently has where it converts the dipped beam because it thinks it's abroad?

Regarding the keyless thing - at first I thought it was because I had forgotten to lock it and as I walked up the handles popped out (as per normal), I then made sure I was locking it and it still happened. Very odd and as you have said, I can’t find it in the app or menu as a selection option either.

But I have noticed I can purchase the PDLS+ now via the app……
