    Brand new Turbo: Multiple issues

    -lane assist is very aggressive, turn it off -loose steering feel may be attributed to the rear wheel steer if you have that option, i felt the same way gets some getting used to at lower speeds. -software issues with apple CarPlay and screen responsiveness should be helped with a system reboot...

    Whatā€™s your seating position?

    You kind of have no choice but to sit as low as possible because the steering column doesnā€™t go that high up and youā€™d block the gauges. I think Porsche did this on purpose to have drivers sit lower and feel more sporty. Iā€™d sit higher if I could without blocking the gauges personally.

    Macan Turbo in for service Macan 4 loaner, my experience

    AC not working again. Maybe about a month since last service to fix the same issue. Last time the excuse was no refrigerant from factory. Donā€™t know what it will be this time. Havenā€™t seen any evidence of a leak, but acting the same as last time. Toggle on AC or Max and it auto toggles to off...

    Battery Pack break-in

    Battery is using some pretty standard chemistry. Iā€™ve never heard of doing this on any electric vehicle and donā€™t think itā€™s necessary. Only the iron phosphate batteries may need some 0-100 occasionally for calibration. We donā€™t have that chemistry though.

    Sound system Macan EV standard, bose, burmester

    Yea I was a little surprised about the discussion in video about $2k price tag for the upgrade on all US specs it was $6k-7k for the upgrade to Burm. For $2k no brainer.

    Mine were not misaligned but have since a few charging sessions become misaligned. Itā€™s powered version. Pretty annoyed

    What time is it?

    My sync has been greyed out after resetting the vehicle to get plug and charge to work. Dont want to reset again to possibly lose plug and charge and have to reset my garage buttons.. have been manually changing which is kinda crazy for a 2024 electric vehicle..

    New 4S Roof Rattle

    So forgot to post back. Creaking definitely decreased after the fix which was basically cleaning and lubricating the tracks and rubber. Larger speed bumps at an angle I still hear something creaking / rattling. I may bring it up again but since itā€™s hard to reproduce now donā€™t know if it will be...

    Assistance systems causing dangerous situations (serious)

    Full set of Christmas lights went up on my dash. Guess Iā€™ve joined the club on these sensor issues.. happened on a Sunday after a short stop at a store. Got back in and all the lights and warning started up. First time. Havenā€™t checked back after getting home and shutting down the car.

    Doug DeMuro's Macan Turbo Electric EV Review

    Actually it wasnā€™t even one point. They were scored the same, he just listed the Porsche on top. His scoring takes into consideration ā€œvalueā€ so pricing of the turbo worked against it in that category compared to the GV60.

    PPF Coverage Issue on Macan EV Turbo - Dust Line on Rear Bumper

    Our Tesla looked like that in those bumper areas. Dirt and grime gets into the contact areas will look worse over time, especially on a lighter color. Decided against ppf on the Porsche.

    Macan 4 Electric - Very Disappointed

    Totally agree.. had a Rivian with non stop issues that i kept dealing with and finally lemon-lawedā€¦ should have done it earlier. I have friends with Rivians without issues so im not trashing the whole brand, it was my experience. Seems like this Porsche has some electrical gremlins that are...

    Advice needed: getting rattle serviced

    My expertise is even with reproduction of the noise they donā€™t do a good job resolving rattles. Not being able to reproduce it wonā€™t be to your benefit, I would assume theyā€™ll say if they canā€™t reproduce it thereā€™s nothing for them to evaluate.

    Just picked up my 4S - initial comments, reactions, etc. FYI - It was WORTH THE WAIT!!

    Agreed we have a model Y performance and a quad motor Rivian R1T all do some 0-60 on 3-3.5s. The Porsche Macan turbo gets well over the speed limit so much faster than what Iā€™m used to with either the Tesla or the Rivian. Tesla does tend to put all the torque right from the start which makes it...

    First quick feedback of Macan Turbo vs BMW iX

    I couldnā€™t get past the looks of the bmw or the terrible door closing sound with the frameless windows. It made the vehicle feel so cheap. Macan does a way better job with their frameless windows and door closing feel. Honestly even Tesla model y beats out the iX in that area.
