Is the system error *after* charging (cable disconnected), *after* charging (cable connected), or during charging? Even if the comm cable is damaged during charging the vehicle can abort the charge by simply disconnecting the internal contactor. This is comm protocol independent. The system can...

Every brand/model has its quirks. That being said these vehicles are pushing the envelopes and require rapid development. Some of the flaws are there because engineers say "we need another month" and product says "we need to sell now, those will be fixed in the facelift". Happens all the time...

It is not possible to open front/back hoods from within the vehicle unless the car is in (P)ark. The fact these events are linked with entry I'd look for less sophisticated causes, such as pressing the remote.

These errors mean either the cameras are acting up or sensors. Sensors record error codes. Cameras are a bit harder to spot since they yield software conditions that show up as the warnings above but are *not* recorded, unless cameras fail completely. Slight misalignment on the camera(s) is...

Taste is a special thing. Everyone is different.

It has a good range but there is no way you are pulling 19.8kWh/100km @ 140km/h unless you are going downhill or mixing this with city driving :) To measure consumption at those speeds make sure your panel is set to 'Since last charge'. Stop on a charging station on the highway, charge it up...

10К км in 3 months. Love the performance at any speed!

I've never found an A/S with good performance/grip in A/S. Could be the temp variations. Temps drop to -20C where I'm located in the winter months and 38-40C in the summer months. For milder climates maybe they are a good choice. There is simply no rubber that can perform well within a 60C...

The US is a special case, it's profit at all cost and a plutocracy. It has dug itself into a hole that I'm not too sure they can come out of, but thats a discussion for beers in Vienna or Munich one day. From a pure market position, there is 450 million of "us" in Europe. There are 1.5 billion...

Pricing makes up the difference I guess. Sales are falling off a cliff for EU brands.

Not if there was a change in your driving patterns. 100km at higher speed or sloped terrain is enough to adjust the estimate. The official numbers are subject to very specific conditions indeed. I have beaten those and then some. Is it worth the effort? No. Wasted time.

I'd say 395km range at 100% based on your screenshot for highway going 120km (75mph) is not much of a concern in my book. Driving style, terrain and outside temps all impact range estimates. So based on this number alone I would not be concerned. But dealer has to diagnose the car. The high...

I was talking with my local dealer today on this same exact topic (again). They have not been given the above statement, yet. The service rep told me that ever since I took them for a ride they now hear it all the time in almost every Macan they drive/service. I guess most people dont pay much...

Do you drive highway, city? Top speeds? I've seen these numbers on highways, I've actually seen far less going 150+km/h.

Awesome, warming up the printer.

Depends on the tires, but still seems very steep. Then again, everything in Switzerland is +30% for absolutely no reason other than "we can charge more". If you took your car to say Lyon I guarantee you that number would be way lower. I can't believe the prices you guys pay for common every day...

You are correct, the car does not use the charger, at least not under my conditions. Conditions: Outside: 10C Target: 22C Precondition ran for 12 minutes. Result: Vehicle did not use the charger. The battery did not drop as well, which indicates very efficient energy use by the climate...

Will let everyone know in the AM, charging now. If I turn on precondition at full charge and it starts pulling from the charger while at the same time not using battery then case closed. Either way keeping it plugged in on cold mornings is better than not having it plugged in.

This forum is for exchanging feedback, good and bad. The concerns with range are legitimate for many owners and I would not classify it as a phenomena. If the car is not using the charger but its pulling battery for precondition its a legit oversight on the engineering team. Its a simple 'if'...

You should see Audi's China figures... European brands are being slaughtered in China. Competition is fierce and quality is either up to par or pricing is so attractive consumers just don't care.
