    How to CHANGE the consumption display on the dash?

    Yes, the info supplied by Karl-El works but you need to do the App and car separatelyā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ at least in my experience.

    Insulated glass or rear wiper? (First post by a Porsche newbie.)

    I have a 4 with insulated glass and standard size wheels that has a few problems and I ended up with a 7 day loan of a 4S with no insulated glass and on larger wheels. On high quality flat main roads I would say (wife agrees) the 4 with insulated glass was noticeably quieter on the local...

    Scheduled charging issuesā€¦.no options now work

    Hi, Iā€™ve found that on a charger controlled charge if I unlock the car, plug cable in and lock the car with the key I get an error but the car charges. If I donā€™t go in the car after ive unlocked and plug charger in and let the car re-lock itself I donā€™t get any errors. May be worth a try.

Two things I didnā€™t mention, one on talking to a PodPoint technicIan they suggested that I ensure no charging locations/schedules were stored in the car system If I was...

    An update on the message above. with my charger (PodPoint) controlling the charge scheduling since I picked my car back up from the dealer It has essentially charged twice with no error and twice with ā€˜cannot chargeā€˜ errors. When I inspected the charger on the error occasions I realised that...

    An update, got my Macan back after yet another week with the dealer. They could not find any charging issuesā€¦ā€¦but admitted they couldnā€™t see the charging errors that were reported to me by the App. Four of five errors were tracked to the technician not properly authenticating their charger...

    Random(?) Error Messages

    Hi, in the manual (europe) for charging if there is a charging error to reset the system it says remove charging cable shut car lock and leave for five minutes. This does seem to allow reset and clear. Iā€™ve found much to my and a Porsche Assistance technician that even with a high voltage...

    Robgeo, Iā€™ve had my Macan since end of October and Iā€™m aware of two OTA updates. One on 24th or 25th November which addressed problems with assistance systems and solved traffic sign recognition error messages (map data re-mapping and may be UK specific). The other at 09:00 UK time on 29th Nov...

Iā€™ve a thread open as I cannot schedule charging from a PodPoint charger that has for last few years happily charged an Audi and a Skoda.

    Hi, I phoned PodPoint after 17:00 took 3mins on their after hours service. I specifically asked about the vehicle selection and was told it should not make a lot of difference, if vehicle not there pick nearest one. Informed the guy that the Taycan is potentially a different platform as the...

    Hi, Mollieanna, direct charging set the ā€˜at homeā€˜ on PodPoint to Manual. The PodPoint light should be solid blue. Plug cable into car and it should charge. I just spoke with PodPoint technical support (02072474114) and essentially they are not aware of any issues with the Macan yet. But he...

    I wonder whether, if the dealer who sold to you knew you had a charger, there is an mis-selling argument here. My PodPoint was the charger offered by Audi when I got my Q8 so at least all in VW group. At the moment my dealer is interested as with the the car scheduling the charging Iā€™ve had a...

    Hi, Mollieanna, For a month I was charging using PodPoint scheduling with no problem and can still charge directly (but am not going to wait until midnight to plug the car in and get up before 05:00 to make sure I get night time tariff ). Can you charge directly? When Iā€™ve been trying to...

    Missing 'Mode' Setting - Macan 4 with PASM

    No I donā€™t have the package; the chrono package gives extra settings other than suspension. From the central console with air suspension you can get a sport plus low low suspension settingā€¦ā€¦.. on my local roads including highways it feels brutal and I stuck to standard size wheels (too many...
