  1. Navigation updates

    When I got caught out a couple of times with the Drive Assist rapidly slowing on fast dual carriageways, I raised it with the dealer who said - like many others are reporting - that they'd never heard of this problem before. I was/am sufficient concerned that I actually raised a complaint with...
  2. New VR28.13 SQ4 update

    There's nothing inherently wrong with taking it into Porsche to be updated. But the cost of supporting that would cost Porsche a fortune - which provides a massive disincentive to providing updates at all. And so we arrive at the current state were MY24/25 cars won't get MY26 software...
  3. Extended Warranty Pricing?

    UK Extended Warranty Pricing here: https://assets-v2.porsche.com/gb/-/media/Project/PCOM/SharedSite/Porsche-Service/Vehicle-Information/Approved-Warranty/PCGB/Porsche-Approved-Warranty-Leaflet 1/2/3 Years extension beyond original 3 year warranty: £1020/£1830/£2620 Porsche Assistance is extra...
  4. ROUTE MONITOR - NAVIGATION

    To me, everything suggests that it does take terrain into account for route planning. As to the higher SoC on arrival - I agree this is nuts crazy. Mine did this too for the first time last August and it lasted for two weeks before reverting to normal operation. It's come back a couple of times...
  5. ROUTE MONITOR - NAVIGATION

    I suspect you are being unduly pessimistic of the route planners capability. When I plot a route to a car park I walk from regularly it says it will take 6% charge to drive the 11 miles to get there. When I plot a route from that car park back home the planner says it will take 1% to get there...
  6. ROUTE MONITOR - NAVIGATION

    I had this problem too last August initially but it went away after a couple of weeks. It's reoccurred a couple of times since though. Can't be certain but I think this can be resolved at least temporarily by running the car down to a low state of charge (ie 3% or lower), leaving it overnight...
  7. What is the optional 19.2kW charger Porsche talks about?

    My house has 3 phase electric supply so I can install a 22KW charger if I wanted. If I did then Porsche would charge at 11KW and my wife's car would take the whole 22KW.
  8. What is the optional 19.2kW charger Porsche talks about?

    It depends on how much you are driving. Here in the UK I have cheap rate overnight charging costing around £0.01 / mile of driving but I only get that rate for 6 hours so I can charge for 110-140 miles / night (depending on times of year/temperature) at that rate. If I was regularly doing...
  9. Battery cells reset/rebalancing after erratic SoC readings

    You've added 77KW which is about 81% SoC. 81%+5% is pretty close to the 85% SoC your car is showing so this is probably accurate now. I think all you need do is charge again to 100% and see if it stays there. If it drops (it likely won't) then charge again to 100%.
  10. Porsche App

    Mines in the UK and has now lost the historic trip data since the update a day or two ago. I'm hoping it's a bug that will get fixed soon as its very disappointing otherwise as I used the trip data a lot.
  11. Battery cells reset/rebalancing after erratic SoC readings

    Dealer said they'd run some battery diagnostics but as soon as they plugged the car into their diagnostic tool it showed 7 software updates available including to the High voltage Battery. These are updates since the big 28.13 update in November. Note they said these updates don't show up in...
  12. Macan EV Insurance

    Yes a new Aviva policy direct from their site purchased in earlier/mid April.
  13. Macan EV Insurance

    Macan 4 - no tracker Admiral last year circa £550 but wanted circa £870 on renewal this year despite no claims or other changes. Aviva this year for circa £540.
  14. The air suspension seems to randomly go up and down while not moving

    As you drive faster the car will automatically lower itself. As you slow down it raises itself to the normal height. You don't really notice this normally unless you've stopped at lights etc. You can see this shown in the car height indicator on the RHS of the dash display.
  15. Battery cells reset/rebalancing after erratic SoC readings

    Mines had this type of behaviour since delivery 12 months ago - my record is losing 13% over 14 days being parked up whilst on holiday. Doing the rebalancing doesn't fix this although it does help with other problems (like fast DC charging ability, range shown at low SoC, Sat Nav arrival SoC...
  16. Does your Macan EV keep SoC stable when left idle for a week or longer?

    My car was built in March 2025 and delivered April 2025 and has always had the 1% / day SoC loss. This has continued after the 28.13 update although since the update the SoC is more erratic but over a few days will always return to the 1%/day loss trend. I'm not sure I see the battery warming...
  17. Adaptive cruise sometimes (rarely) doesn't detect slow moving traffic.

    I've had this quite a few times. For me it only seems to occur the first time of the day it needs to slow/stop after that it works correctly. I've tried to tough it out to see if it will spot its error but always give in and brake manually.
  18. Does your Macan EV keep SoC stable when left idle for a week or longer?

    Mine has the roughly 1% SoC drop per day problem but the car definitely seems to get into deep sleep when not used for a few days, at least I assume so given how long it takes to start up all the features like Navigation and "Hey Porsche". Got mine book into the the dealers in late May to be...
  19. Retrofit Innodrive

    Remote park assist & 3D surround view also isn't available in the UK for the RWD and 4 but is available in other countries and for the higher models in the UK. I don't think this is a glitch. I don't know why they would do this although I've given my opinion. For the spec of Macan4 I bought...
  20. Retrofit Innodrive

    I don't think it is a configurator glitch but instead an intentional choice by Porsche UK to push buyers up to a higher model. Innodrive was certainly available on MY25/25 and my MY25 Macan 4 has it. I don't agree about the quality of Innodrive. I use it on about 70% or so of all the miles I've...
