    Very strange experience I've just been through...........

    It's always been possible since launch on the Taycan - just need to ensure you have the correct type of trickle (LiPo) charger.

    Pre-Climate Change in the app?

    That's correct. In the app you just slide the sliders to the temp you actually want. Screenshot is from my Taycan and I have all Porsche Connect services.

    Instrument Cluster Warning

    As others have mentioned - no passing (I'm guessing you're familiar with your highway code and all road signage, right??)

    Pre-Climate Change in the app?

    Always there although there were some glitches with recent app updates. Been on the Taycan for quite a while longer too. Note that the temp is set to whatever you last set in the car.

    Very strange experience I've just been through...........

    Has been a widely reported issue with the Taycan and obviously when the led on the fob periodically flashes - if it is then it is too close if not intended to use the car. Not the only explanation clearly burnt is a 'feature'.

    Storing Passenger seat settings

    Same principle of operation as per all Porsches. Only the driver's seat and steering column will auto adjust. Porsche ID is assigned to your key. Key stores some comfort settings but not all and the rest via the ID (seat settings). Next time when the driver's seat and wheel are where they...

    Storing Passenger seat settings

    Once the passenger seat is set that should be it as only the driver's seat is programmed to move along with the steering wheel (if you have 14 or 18 way seats) when unlocked. Passenger door memory controls are independent of this. What seats and option do you have?

    Very strange experience I've just been through...........

    Nightmare! 12v battery issue most likely root cause. Not uncommon on EVs and Porsche have had a poor record with this item unfortunately. Taycan was plagued with this issue and a shock to see this now appearing on the Macan. Could be a failing 12v and you were unlucky or something is...

    Official: Macan will be electric only - Porsche stands by earlier decision

    For those of us that are still alive by then i assume we'll be on gen 3 solid state and a lifetime range on a single charge...maybe

    The 14-way and 18-way seats really don't suit tall drivers

    Sport seats also don't have and adjustable head restraint - 14-way does and logically is a better bet for most

    Opening sunroof impact on rear spoiler

    To balance the aero dynamics otherwise the range would be significantly impaired with an open roof.

    Uk speed recognition dual carriageway

    It's the mapping data that is at fault (same on Taycan) and poor / incomplete signage (e.g. end of restrictions in road works etc. For this reason j disable any feature that relies on signage and only rely on basic cruise control - avoids unexpected deceleration/ accelerator..

    PCM and warning signs-

    Did your dealer configure the car correctly for your location? These errors can also appear when there is a lot of moisture and / or dust on the windscreen camera and / or parking sensors and / or radar dome. All look to be related to the headlights which are controlled by the windscreen camera.

    Porsche Macan Electric Configuration - Need Your Thoughts!

    Spec is budget constrained so no point suggesting expensive options such as HUD, RAS, Air etc (sorry).

    Porsche Macan Electric Configuration - Need Your Thoughts!

    There is no point in adding Sports Chrono - it does not add additional performance. It adds an additional drive mode 'Sport Plus' which I'm guessing you won't use as it will be pretty firm on UK roads. In fact, without some of the other options it will do very little - damper, suspension...

    Battery Pack break-in

    Daily charging to 80% is the norm but breaking in is not. No need. Regular ultrarapid charging is also not recommended.

    No printed owner’s manual.

    This ploy was used with the Taycan in the early days. You had to ask for the hard copy. I did and have never used it..The digital version is good enough and is maintained.

    My first Porsche, critique my spec

    Yes but the point (which I think you missed) is that the advice given from an SA was '25 miles'. Clearly everything will impact range - weight of person driving it for starters never mind the myriad of options which will have an impact - anything from wheel size to 4-zone AC. Porsche only made...
