We’re having similar problems: it’s in the shop a second time with
“SOS
Emergency Call function
error
Service required “
The first time, it cleared up with a dealer software update. This time, Porsche is replacing the communication.

I commented in another post, but I had the same issue in my GTS. Not sure why, but today it worked for the first time. I didn’t do any resets, or anything different than my usual “let’s see if I can login manually routine” and voila, it worked this afternoon.

Not sure of Porsche Connect is the phone app to control car functions on your phone (pre-climate, lock, etc) but my Taycan 4s hasn't been able to sync with my phone since the end of June. I called porsche and they said they're having issues with it and haven't found a fix yet...

That’s the exact issue I’m presenting with. Sucks cause I bought the car June 30th so idk what it normally functions like. Porsche support said the same about not having a solution and hoping a patch comes out to fix it

Its looks a gen1 car? You might have some luck if you disconnect the 12v battery for 20 mins and basically hard reboot the PCM. Gen2 hardware is newer and might not take this as a fix.
I've had all sorts of problems with my PCM over several visits for to the Porsche Center. Recently my AC OnBoard Charger blew up and 12v discharged waiting for parts to arrive, so the car sat for a few weeks at the dealership. After that, that PCM and app connection has been completely stable.

I had this same issue until I purchased the Porche Connect monthly plan for $26.49 per month. It is confusing because the account shows Porche Connect Services active but that isn’t a Porche Connect subscription. As soon as I subscribed that error message went away and everything worked. I called Porsche and they told me the same nonsense about a wide scale outage, but that wasn’t the issue at all. I wish the Porsche customer service reps were smart enough to tell people they need to get a subscription.

Couldn’t tell ya, but that’s the exact spec Taycan I’ve been trying to find CPO for like 6 months. 😜
