Hi Folks,
I wanted a set of 21" wheels for the winter on my Macan 4 EV. There are a few online shops for wheels in Canada but many are not showing correct wheels (wrong bolt patterns etc). I ordered a set of Braelin BR10's from Quattro Tires but unfortunately they do not fit. Quattro Tires had...
Hi Folks, aside from my very underwhelming purchase experience (they just removed a cover from my car, and I had to ask for any kind of Porsche swag), the service has been amazing at Porsche Prestige (dealer closer to where I live). The technical rep is excellent, they update me with texts and...
The assistance systems error disappeared after a few days (i.e. no error today). BUT the weather was crazy hot on Sunday (22 C for Montreal in October!), and a nice 17 C today as well. Let's see if it comes back when the temperature drops more later in the week.
This Assistance Systems Limited warning popped up and has stayed on all day, despite leaving the car multiple times for a few hours in between each drive. It is actually seeing and displaying the correct speed limit. My car has all the recent updates.
I swear I knew I would start having...
Hi Folks,
Thanks for chiming in with your experiences. I forgot to mention a couple of more good things and tiny annoyances:
I have the Bose sound system, and for the first few weeks, I thought it sounded terrible (like others have expressed). But after those few weeks, it's like something...
Hi Folks,
I just received my adapter today! I am based in Montreal, Canada for reference. It's heavier than I expected, and comes in a nice carrying case! I have a 2024 Macan, purchased December 2024.
Hi Folks,
Just wanted to post a super long review of my 2024 Macan 4 EV since I got it last December. As a quick recap, I went from a 2014 Chevy Volt (love that car!) to this beast. It's the first Porsche that I have ever owned although I have enjoyed my brother's 2014 Panamera on some road...
Hi, I have a 2024 Macan 4 and have experienced these issues twice in 9 months since I got it. One issue is the sound completely cutting out, not even the turn signals make a sound. The recommendation to unplug and reconnect the power cable on the Bose unit in the trunk worked the first time, but...
Thanks! I stand corrected (regarding Macan EV 2024 models). From the link:
" Going forward, all new model year 2026 Porsche Taycan and Macan Electric models will include Porsche NACS DC adapter at no additional fee. Model year 2025 Taycan owners and all existing Macan Electric owners are...
Hi Folks,
Electrek just released an article about Porsche providing NACS adapters now/soon. It's free for 2025+ Porsche EVs but us early adopters (2024) will have to pay $185 US. I will reach out to my dealer in Canada to see if he has more details, and will push to get it for free. It should...
Good albeit generic review overall. I also disagree about the interior. I have the Premium package, Sport chrono, 18-way seat, GT sports steering etc. and I love it. It is easy on the eyes without being spartan, incredibly comfortable and just looks great overall. The stitching is perfect...
Beautiful color combinations, and excellent list of options! I am 7 months into my Macan 4 ownership, and after the first month or so of having a lot of the common issues, I have absolutely loved it ever since! My Macan 4 is my first Porsche as well and I am just a few years older than you...
Hi,
I brought my Macan 4 in for the rear camera recall, and brought up the suspension issue. They tested a Turbo and another 4 in stock, and all make the same cracking sound. It's 100% reproducible by simply slowing down right before the speed bump. If you reduce your speed enough to coast...
Hi,
I am used to my old Chevy Volt having special-coated brake discs that never, ever rusted. Chevy was aware that regen meant that the discs were only used to stop the car at the very last meter or 2. Looks like Porsche didn't think of that! The rust goes away after a few km of driving, but...
Hi,
I have the 21" Michelin Pilot Sport A/S on my Macan 4 and I am really happy with them. They are generally very quiet (except for some specific road types that are noisy with any tire), and incredibly smooth. I have always been a Michelin fan though (for comfort/longevity, not necessarily...
Hi,
The issue happened again yesterday, 4 months later. All sound cut out while I was on a call in the car. I could not access the Bose configuration menu (it just goes blank) either. At the same time, I got all kinds of advanced drive assist warnings on the cluster, and then the PCM rebooted...
I don't charge past 75% as I charge at home and barely use more than 3-6% when going back and forth to the office (I also charge there). With that said, now that the weather has improved, the car is estimating 476km at 75%. At 100% it theoretically means that I can get 634km in my mostly city...
Hi, thanks for the information! It worked! For those that experience this, go to Settings->Tire and Pressure Monitor and there is the option for tire sizes. I just toggled to 22" then back to 21" Winter and it worked.
Hi,
I have a dealer visit scheduled next Wednesday for a number of issues, the majority being rattling. Now that the temperature is warmer, it's like everything is coming loose including the suspension.
When the temperature was -16 C, I swear I was almost in tears at how solid the car felt...
