For me, I want to have specific information to give to my dealer to show exactly how the problem presents, I've already asked for a battery reset for this problem using this bulletin https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2025/MC-11015163-0001.pdf, but my dealer didn't want to do it - it costs them...

This is exactly my recent usage over the last 3 months. I've been keeping my charging limit at 75 or 80%, with the Battery Preservation setting selected. It does rebalance to a higher % once charging is complete, which I hope the reset will fix.

They did showcase the very best Macan color (without getting into Paint to Sample prices), which is a plus.

Recently, Rivian has had a problem with their LFP batteries - not the same as the Macan, but interesting symptoms. With a battery, the SOC is estimated based on the voltage of the battery. This works for many chemistries, but is hard for LFP as the voltage doesn’t change much as the battery...

The Monday, March 10, 2025 build date is the key one for VR28-13. Note that if you have WSJ0 update to VR28-13, there is no different possible version you may have based on when you got the software. Any different update would have a different code number and would not be WSJ0/VR28-13

That's December 5, 2024, a whole year earlier. Porsche software updates are not to be rushed.

The only UI change I've noticed is this one in the Charging app - the buttons to open/close the charge ports (likely not visible for manual charge port cars). Any other big UI changes you might see online are for the 2026 cars that do have a different UI implementation. Also, the Android...

The solution with Audi seems to be to get the factory involved! It would be nice if Audi had a documented rebalance process you can run at home that we could use on our PPE cars rather than guessing that the Taycan one might possibly work despite being entirely different technology. The Taycan...

Dave is on the other side of crazy.... This is an interesting bit of info

This bulletin has few words, but the words it has encapsulates a lot of what's reported here https://dot.report/bulletins/11015163

My SOC -> Displayed Range calculation is broken the other way. 360 miles range at 80% is outrageous! This implies a 100% range of 450 Miles (not km!). My consumption is under 3 m/kwh at this time of ye. (It does drop by 40 when I put it in gear to drive, but thats still too much) My dealer...

One of the new features was listed as being able to open the charge ports from The App. I assumed this was the phone app, but it appears to be the in-car charging app, which now has buttons to open and close the ports at the screen where you can set the charge limit. Useful if you lose the Exit...

I would contend that, if you don't trust the 45%, nor the 60%, then you also can't trust the 80% value either, so you can't tell anything about the relationship between SOC % to kWh. And that is actually quite bad for the car. My dealer just DC charged my car to "80%" after some work. I drove...

It was not that at all, I have recuperation off. The first time I hit the brake pedal moderately hard, the regen indicator went way past its normal range, but the braking was the same. Only happened once.

Just picked up my 4S with the update. The brake change is very subtle coming to a stop - whatever you were doing to be smooth previously now seems to be smoother, but it isn't magic. Also the first time I hit the brakes from a decent speed, the regen display went very deep, much more green than...

The loaner 2026 Cayenne I just had came with a LOT of bass on the Bose sound system. It was turned all the way up to 9! (Perhaps the Bermester goes to 11?) Setting it to a more reasonable 5 was still more bassy than level 5 in my Macan 4S.

My summer 3.0 m/kwh has dropped to 2.7 in January, but these are all short, local trips with several starting out without regen to clean the brake disks.

It's not so much the EV, but it's the modern cars that have electronic door handles. The Macan has a manual backup built into the same handle, so it should still open from the inside without power. Opening the door from the outside becomes tricky with those flush handles that many newer cars...

If you didn't 3D print the center armrest tray from this post https://www.macanevowners.com/forum/threads/custom-center-armrest-tray.18600/, then perhaps this could be of use as an alternative way of using that space. I've used a Maxpedition Skinny pouch...
