The fake sound machine, the thing that makes an EV go vroom vroom, particularly inside :). I’ve got the Bose installation for music.

As a gentle start, try some clay bar and quick detailer. Too much pressure might smear it around, so go easy. Look for "Meguiar's Clay Bar Kit with 3 Pack Clay Bars and Microfiber Towel for Auto Detailing - Smooth Surface Car Clay Bar Kit" or similar. I think tree sap is a likely candidate.

Apple Maps also offers that and I’ve seen it working in the Porsche (the overview map looks like you’re calling in an airstrike). The Apple Maps one also integrates with Watch for when you’re out of the car. Probably the Google version does as well.

Maps can be updated via USB, or at least there is an option in the map settings screen.

It's a one-week review. Yay! The car: a Gentian 4S with many options (HUD, RWS, PTV+, Bordeaux interior, air quality thingy, etc.) and a few "omissions" (only 20" wheels, no sound unit, manual charge hatch). The car it replaces: a 2019 Tesla Model 3 Performance. The location: glorious...

I’ll wager there’ll be two parcels - “Adapter, universal, North America” and “Adapter documentation pack, Canadian English/French” although both are listed at 1.9kg.

It’s overnight shipping, but the carrier doesn’t have it yet (14:00 Vancouver). Maybe Monday, probably Tuesday based on previous FedEx transactions. But if they’re in a bad mood they may not pick it up until next week.

Two for me here, also in Canada. But they’re only “Label created” on the tracking site - I’ve known FedEx take days to actually do anything from that stage.

Canada, free (as for all Macans), 4S. Invitation and then confirmation emails received.

Read it again. You’re listed as a Macan owner, yes? “all existing Macan Electric owners are eligible for a complimentary adapter”

So you can watch the Patrick Dempsey one (and it's quite good) but you know you want the Engineering Explained version: It goes through the hybrid system, including the two eTurbos, along with how they (plus the battery if it has any charge) can feed the eMotor between the engine and the PDK...

I’ve just been reading the manual (I know, hand in my man card on the way out). I noticed there’s a set of requirements for windscreen washer fluid including that it should be Phosphate-free. I have no idea whether that is related to the problem. Both the bottles in my garage are just dilute...

Just taken delivery of mine yesterday. Other than a P&C certificate issue that's being resolved everything is perfect. Except... who signed off on those sun visors? Have they ever driven north or south? Will be looking for a third party extension or will invest in some dorky sunglasses with...

As one of the seven people with faith that it would be free, I'm still amazed. Porsche really is great. EDIT: okay, who added a vote after we knew the price? Own up, who did it? I can wait all day.

It's a "Jurassic Park" option: the engineers could do it, but didn't think about whether they should do it. On my Tesla the flip-out hatch feels cheap and has taken to spontaneously opening in the car park - to the extent I wonder whether someone has hacked the app. It also fails to open...

Didn't realize the sound was piped outside.

Another lap around. Cool. https://www.macanevowners.com/forum/threads/my%E2%80%992026-configurator-changes-new-macan-options-added.22233/page-8#post-333111

Go strong or go home. No grey (or gray if you prefer) for me. Your combo was on the short-list for me as well. The cost of the truffle leather tipped my hand in the end, but there's nothing classier.

My new motor, at the dealer just before the PPF-shop came to collect it. Photos by my SA.

It's being offered by Porsche on my new Macan 4S with 20" standard wheels as part of a scheme to reduce luxury car tax burden here in BC. Quoted at $4,850, nominally worth $5,495 for four years' protection. That strikes me as punchy pricing. Has anyone in Canada had similar offers and accepted...
