I do understand better the way the LV battery is charged during idle thanks to this official statement.

Thanks, that helps a lot.

That's interesting to see the use of generative IA, and even thought the sources are displayed (here macanevowner, which is in fact us...), you think it's a reliable source to counter the same source ... frankly, unfortunately there is no official source to corroborate or not. Because of your...

I don't think so, for instance, my ex 2018 Tesla which had a 12v battery was not maintening LV battery when idling. And I guess, most of the EV cars with 12v system are not maintening 12v battery when off/idling. It's more or less like ICE cars, because this 12v powered onboard systems are...

@BigApple That's very interesting! I was pretty certain that the 12v battery is not maintened by the HV battery when the macan is off. Only when it'S on, and that's why some had 12v problems. how did you/they manage to change that behavior to cope with the drain of the dashcam?

Not related to my problems. my red circles are related to chassis, brakes, direction, 4wd, traction control and so on, but not to the hv battery

I'll let you know through the forum what Porsche will tell me about this problem... and if the red circle of death/loss of power is actually solved. Surprise surprise!

polling on a forum is never science,, the bias is always the people that are represented on the forum. on this forum, there is a lot of people that came before having the car, so we can't say the people are here to report problems in the first place. that was my case for instance. You have to...

That's why I've said that 1% loss per day is a failure. My car was at almost 0% per day until around September, and now, it's 1%. The loaner is at 0%ish. same conditions: underground, no 4g/5g, constant temperature, no key at proximity, no nothing. We will see if Porsche find a fix.

@Petzi no, I can't just stop paying for the car, it's not the way it works, it's not the way the contract has been written. No matter if it's legal or not, a decision from a judge is needed. For sure, there is always a way to prosecute, but you know... it's just a bad car from a bad company that...

yep, but when you lease it, lemon laws are not applicable because the Official owner is a company. you have to prosecute after receiving the right to do so from the financial renter... a real pita

28/11/2024: brand new turbo. ==> spring 2025, it was almost problem free, or similar as @Petzi 's Macan. Nice car! Starting from that moment, more and more frequent various red circle of death with partial loss of power 09/20205 : 5 days at the dealership "we've fixed your car with an update"...

In the meantime…

The fact is that Porsche is not interested in fixing nor adding features to our macans. 16 months, and nothing relevant, it's eye catching. Moreover, they keep struggling fixing big issues with selected cars, maybe that's why they don't focus on anything else.

not related to the wsj0 update, there is a thread dedicated to that issue. mine was 0% per day, and in the same conditions, it's 1% loss per day since mid of October ; and it's more or less around the installation of the previous update wsd0 On my car. However, my car is at the dealership since...

This thread is really hot! Does it involve or need the preconditionning?

Context: my Turbo is at the dealership since 12 days for the red circle of death issues, and related total or partial loss of power. The loaner I have is an almost new Macan EV In @Petzi conditions (ie: error free, btw a pleasure!) It has been parked in the same conditions as my turbo, 5 days...

Nop. Underground parking, flat 18-20c all year. besides, during last winter, it was 0% even when parked outside. Something has definitively changed, in a bad way. my car is at the dealership since 10 days for the red circle of death, and I’ve asked them to check/solve this abnormal idle...

By all Porsche standards, this is not a bug, this is a (lack of) feature... Sorry, it's sarcasm, I know that.

1. no, never 2. Yes, it’s my standard pattern of use, as I almost not use the Macan as a DD. My theory is that some module has a problem that disable the deep sleep. It was an issue on the earlier day of the macan, because of a diode which was not in the soecification range. They’ve changed...
