Right now there are only a few cars that do that (Tesla, maybe Rivian?). I'm sure it's possible, but Porsche just hasn't decided to do that yet. It could be that the data connection between the ADAS and the infotainment system doesn't have enough bandwidth to support it.

I think you're screwed. Summer tires get too hard in freezing temperatures, and you'll lose almost all grip. Summer tires in freezing conditions is almost the worst case for tires (only way to make it worse would be running with slicks in snow). You don't necessarily need to get winter tires...

It definitely is enabled for at least one feature, specifically the "Emergency release and locking of doors" (in manual), for when the battery in the key is dead. Requiring the key to be placed in close proximity to a specific location is specifically so the NFC chip in the key can get enough...

This test might not be indicative of the Macan having NFC active or not, and the NFC functionality might still be active. When Apple was working to enable Audi and Polestar last year they had to add strings and code into Wallet to allow it to work (it first appeared in iOS 18.1 beta). Some of...

Based on the manual (which states the car has UWB & NFC radios as part of the FCC compliance part), and how the keys for the '25 Macan work, it appears the UWB & NFC hardware is built into the car. Unfortunately that doesn't necessarily mean Porsche will add it to existing cars, or that it...

Hopefully it doesn't try to charge you for an multi-week idle time.

Depending on what bike rack you have, one of these should work, and also help people see your lights: https://www.kodytechnologies.com/

I suspect it's related to how quickly the dashboard display program starts vs how quickly carplay connects and starts. If the dashboard manages to start first, it doesn't have a source selected so it goes to the source list. If carplay manages to start first then it shows the track page as...

Mine sort of does the same, but I think it's because I'm playing from CarPlay. When the car starts up, CarPlay isn't connected, so it just shows the source options. Once CarPlay connects, it then doesn't always go back to the track info, but if you hit the back button on the steering wheel...

Just to make sure, when you go to Account, Charging Service in the app, does it show a subscription? That has to be there before it can do anything else related to plug&charge.

I could see a future plug&charge capability in existing Macans, but maybe not with CP since they lock the cables before authorizing. In terms of how the Macan could work with multiple charge networks via Plug&Charge, one of either of the below could work: 1. They had the coming multi-network...

I'm traveling so I can't actually check it until late next week. I do have comfort access.

To see if you have a shot of getting Apple Car Key, check the part# on your current fob. The PPE1B-433 only supports standard RFID, but PPE1C-433 also supports UWB. If you have the UWB keys there's a much better chance your car could get Car Key. Still no guarantee they will add it to cars...

Also, to clarify, unless the battery is almost full, using the brake pedal used blended braking, meaning regen happens for the first part of the braking action. The regen on/off that the Macan supports is just the regen on liftoff from the accelerator pedal.

The one scenario I can think of is if the adaptive cruise / camera system is offline because it got dirty and you're in the middle of nowhere, but you'd still settle for the old style cruise control.

I definitely understand that a full size spare wouldn't fit in the Macan, but I do wish they would have designed the frunk to hold a donut spare. There are some sections of highway in the US, and a lot of backroad trails, where there is zero cell-phone coverage and calling for roadside...

Of every person that commented on the thread, you and 1 or 2 other people agreed that creep should be off by default. With the summary as you wrote it, I have to believe you're actually a Grok bot, complete with Elon's distortion filter.

For a true faraday cage, the cage needs to be connected to something to either absorb or dissipate the RF energy. Most typically it would be connected to the electrical ground for the building.

Is the faraday box grounded? Without grounding it is just a metal cage which will only attenuate the signals, and the signal from the car may be powerful enough for the key to sense and keep itself on.

Are the keys normally kept within 30 feet of the car? If so, it could be the UWB radio is staying active in the key instead of shutting down (UWB uses a lot more energy than NFC).
