Tons of reasons. Will list a couple.
You did not alternate between runs meaning first 2 runs used more energy because car was not at operating temp (battery, cabin, etc.,), driver through repetition keeps improving, driving becomes much smoother, learns environment, braking/turning points, has...
Impressive work by the thieves, could be easily deterred by 2018 tech like Sentry mode but sadly Porsche is more interested in seeing how much can they charge for crap like leather/painted vents.
It's a "sh*t show" for Porsche because instead of sorting OTA updates they cheapened out and used their antiquated dealer network instead.
When my ID.3 was receiving OTA updates these were rolled out in waves ("canary release"), waves of 1000 vehicles. If no issues were reported next wave would...
I was referring to this:
"It appears the recent software update narrowed the Macan’s tolerance to European 230V limits" and replied by saying our grid (1ph) is 230v +-10% = limits 207v - 253v.
It is clear what is happening but the germans have not flashed NA Macans with European 230V limits as...
Don't know who or how comes up with these theories but I can tell you our grid is 230v +-10% and maximum voltage is 253.
Btw we charge 3ph 400v (max. voltage 437) at 11kW (16A) as 1ph will only give you 7.4kW (32A).
If the OBC is 22kW we can charge at 32A 3ph
My MINI has 6 custom button but then again it's a proper car none of this poverty spec Macans.
In addition it has Previous and Next track buttons like every other car known to man/woman. Porsche cost cutting is next level, I bet the German who discovered this retired to Monaco the next day.
Had the car over a year, after WSJ0 I keep having this fault so WSJ0 broke something which was fine before. Too lazy to fix it as I don't understand enough what's causing it.
It's far simpler than that.
Porsche already got your money = zero benefit to offer any update = zero updates to '24/'25 Macans
Porsche wants your money = can't sell the same old 24/25 Macan to new unsuspecting customers = improves '26 Macan
Sadly Porsche customers care more about the (grey)...
AFAIK the version number did not change from E3 1.2
- E3 1.1 was the infamous (released buggy) I.D software my ID.3 runs (MEB cars)
- E3 1.2 was supposed to be an SDV "lite" software for the PPE platform which they later abandoned any SDV visions they had (18 month delay) and we ended up with...
That's not true, a different last letter can mean different revisions, different markets, different features all equaling different hardware.
Have a look here...
You're kidding right? You'll need addressable LEDs and a controller to do any sort of animation.
It's a 1K option.
Don't see anything you can code on the Macan, it's all hardware changes.
I can't even read a single controller of it (except for the CAN Gateway) using Car Scanner, let alone code...
Had to order 14-way as no massage on 18-way and barely any space in the back becomes even worse with the 18-ways.
If you don’t care about massage or rear passengers go for the 18-ways which are a lot nicer to look at and sit in.
It's not like there are several updates.
VR28.13 is the last update.
VR28.11 is the previous update that was installed during PDI for my Macan as I am sure for most as well.
If you have no issues and want to play it 100% safe you may delay the update to VR28.13.
While the update is the same, as...
It is very clear WSJ0 = VR28.13
What @craz8 above says is true.
Update is exactly the same as released 7 months ago.
Zero 2026 features made it to 2024/2025 models.
If you complain to Porsche they will remove the fan duct and cover up the underbody so no more helicopter style dust landings.
If it's a lease and you drive in a sandy/dusty area/desert might be worth a shot.
Limited availability so act fast, for the rest of us, enjoy the unrestricted cooling...
PSP is a prerequisite for RWS so you don't have a choice.
For a Boxster which does not have RWS I would not choose it.
It makes the steering lighter at parking speeds, and supposedly heavier at high speeds, it's a cheap (for Porsche prices) software option at 265euro (although Macan software...
