    Inaccurate speedometer

    Is anyone else feeling frustrated that the speed is not accurate? My car registers speed inaccurately at 1-2 miles higher than actual at speeds from 15-30 mph. At higher speeds it gets even more inaccurate. From 50-65 it’s three miles off and above that it’s four to five miles off. It’s...

    22” All-Season tire spec - what Brand/model tires are you all getting from the factory?

    Continental Cross Contact All-Season. Acceptable level of road noise. But are they made for EVs? Had them on my last EV also and needed tires every 35-40k miles. And frankly I am truly enjoying the handling of this car so I’m probably going into corners at speed and am going to be pretty hard...

    Reminder re frunk / hood / bonnet opening when washing car: high pressure water may open it

    It can be disabled in the settings. You must disable the setting that allows for the rear trunk access with the foot swipe and the automatic door unlocking when you approach the car.

    Reminder re frunk / hood / bonnet opening when washing car: high pressure water may open it

    And while they are at it there should be a way to lift the windshield wipers off the glass. Mine cannot be lifted without scratching the edge of the hood. My previous car had the option to shift the wipers for just such a need. Luckily, I don't need to park outside in icy weather where I would...

    Under Door Puddle Lights

    On my Macan 4 the mirrors have lights that illuminate when the doors are unlocked. I did not opt for the upgrade so the puddle lights (the lights that are located in the door on the interior bottom) are plain. The upgrade would have the wording of the model.

    Problems with Homelink Pairing to Garage Door Opener?

    I also had issues. I found that bringing my car into the garage did the trick. I used the remote opener and held it up to the mirror.

    Question on regen …

    Because of the excellent range of the EV I seldom charge over 70%. So I know that it is capable of regen.

    Question on regen …

    I set up the regen as my custom steering wheel button. I only use it in city driving. I definitely agree that coasting is more efficient especially at highway speeds. my last car- Etron had paddle shifters so I had the option of two levels of regen. What I found was I enjoyed the ability to...

    Video showing Macan frunk fitting plane carry-on suitcase / luggage

    Is there a physical latch for the frunk? What if I have no power?

    Black Macan 4 EV is home! Midlife crisis? Maybe...but it's worth it!

    Instead of using one pedal for traffic situations you can use the adaptive cruise InnoDrive. The car will automatically brake and keep you at a distance from the vehicle in front of you. And the steering wheel is Capacitive so just touching it will allow the car to steer with very little or no...

    When I set a destination on the navigation I should be able to choose the route but I don’t see how to do that. Can anybody help?

    Days away from 2025 Macan 4S...wondering if I made a mistake!

    I’ve taken my Macan 4 on several road trips. The first two times I was not able to get plug and charge to work. But I called Porsche America and they got it working in time for my next charge stop. other than that it’s been a great road trip machine. Great range, excellent InnoDrive, lots of...

    Problem with the air conditioner and battery cooling

    I received the car on November 21. All is well. I took it on a 600 mile round trip from Nj to VA. And it worked perfectly. The dealer knew I had the trip and worked overtime to ensure that I had it back.

    My first, absolutely freezing, road trip

    Great discussion. I’d like to thank everyone for their input. This is my second EV. Had the etron Edition One. So have had many road trips with mixed results. As EVs have become more popular the charging stations have become more crowded. the two biggest improvements in my Macan vs the Audi...

    Macan 4 Delivered Without Functioning AC

    I received an update on the back ordered parts- they are the refrigerant lines. And I was told that it is now looking like the parts won’t be shipped until the first week of December. At this point I am very disappointed. First the delay in getting the car. Then issues with the software not...

    Macan 4 Delivered Without Functioning AC

    I I have the same problem and I posted it two weeks ago. The car is still with the dealer waiting on a back ordered part. And yes I was told that the parts needed also cool the battery which is why I was not able to use the car. FYI I was on a road trip and noticed that after DC fast charging...
