    Potential New Owner

    There was no rush to get a shiny new gadget - I was due a change of car so bought a vehicle from a reputable brand based on my husband having bought a Taycan and having no such issues. From your experience of your test drives mentioned above, I’m surprised you ordered one because you’re...

    Adaptive cruise sometimes (rarely) doesn't detect slow moving traffic.

    I really miss my etron! Swapped it to the Macan Turbo and it’s not a scratch on the eyeing regarding the OP -the adaptive cruise control on my turbo is so hit and miss. It makes it pretty much unusable as you just can’t trust it.

    Potential New Owner

    I am just about to sell my Nov 24 Turbo because of the amount of issues it’s had. Rattles and associated noise were one of the few things it hasn’t suffered with actually! I’ve got a deposit down on a Merc GLC EV since Feb, and test driving on Wednesday as the demo models came into the...

    Warn and Brake Assist - Activity Logs

    Ooh - this is my area of expertise! If you search my posts from the last year you'll find me moaning about this A LOT lol The summary version of the story is: Nov 24 - took delivery of the car Following 12 months - loads of impending crash warnings with nothing in front of me (literally two...

    Macan latest update and recall killed my EV

    I picked up my Turbo in Nov 24 too and have had nothing but issues with it until this month, when Porsche finally took notice of a years worth of complaints and a serious safety system failure in January that led to me crashing the car (thankfully not a serious crash, but ÂŁ18k of damage via my...

    Software Updated - Collision Alert System Down?

    Those who have been on this forum for a while know I have done nothing but complain about the random emergency stops my car has performed for no apparent reason, all the warnings that kept popping up, the attempts to force me into oncoming traffic that the lane assist had done, and as very...

    Retrofit Innodrive

    A slightly different take on your question - I have a November 2024 delivery Turbo that has Innodrive as an added option. However - it’s never actually worked! After regular dealer visits during the first year for several other faults every time I’ve mentioned Innodrive on those I was told it...

    Issues Getting Parts for Bodywork Repairs

    In an update to this - I still don't have the bloody car back! The body shop couldn't get the front sensors to work properly, so handed it over to my Porsche dealer for what turned out to only be a few days, to get it all working again. Monday 9th March I went to collect it from the body shop...

    Issues Getting Parts for Bodywork Repairs

    That's terrible! It sounds like some serious work is needed to get that back to its original condition. I'm lucky that the garage it has gone to is the one used by my dealership for their bodywork repairs so they are experienced with Porsches and working on EVs like the Taycan for a number of...

    Issues Getting Parts for Bodywork Repairs

    The garage who are doing the work are now only Porsche approved but do all of the work for my local Porsche dealership; they only work on premium vehicles so I have no concerns about the end result, more so about the time it's taking to get to that end. One of the contributing issues is that...

    Issues Getting Parts for Bodywork Repairs

    The car in the photo is definitely my Provence car, but it was in the evening so the lighting wasn’t great, so perhaps you’re just seeing it as a paler shade.

    Issues Getting Parts for Bodywork Repairs

    Pretty minor damage for a repair that’s taken since 14th January to get parts for, with no date I’ll actually have it back.

    Issues Getting Parts for Bodywork Repairs

    So at the start of December I clipped another car after being nearly run off the road by two speeding Police cars coming round a blind bend, resulting in pretty deep scuffs to the bumper which was also displaced, and a dent to the wing where the bumper had been pushed up. Most of the sensors...

    Macan 4 EV - Alarm start sounding w/ messages related to front trunk

    I've had this exact issue on mine only it started at 4am in my garage at home , then again in the wee hours of the morning and again shortly after. The car wouldn't lock as it said the frunk was open, which is wasn't, then the frunk randomly opened up when nothing had been pressed on the key...

    Electric Charge Ports Won’t Open

    I had the same issue on mine, which was resolved with a software update by the dealer (as far as I was made aware) along with a number of other minor niggles (and some major ones that still exist!).

    Porsche dealer wants piles of money to fit dashcam - yet it's pre-wired?

    Alas that's what I paid to have them installed in mine, even though as you point out - it's pre-wired. I much prefer the Blackview cameras someone mentioned above for both ease of use and image quality and had one in my previous e-tron, having seen how basic and faffy to access the Audi camera...

    Porsche dealer wants piles of money to fit dashcam - yet it's pre-wired?

    I really wish this was the case across manufacturers as dashcams only cover front and rear views, where as I was recently nearly taken out by a speeding police car that flew around a bend with no sirens on, which unfortunately I couldn't evidence from my Porsche brand dashcams. For the Porsche...

    Rear crash damage

    Thankfully by local premium repair shop is the same place the Porsche dealership uses, and my insurance uses, so that bit was easy at least. I’ve had some issues with my Macan over the last year (one of which is what has led to it being in the repair shop now!) so I can’t say as I’m actually...
