洗車的時候,水會從車窗滲進來。雖然知道是無框玻璃,但這個有點誇張了。

Yes, this solution has worked for many, as it was posted before. Good to mention this solution again 👍

我的意思是,如果你在關上車窗的情況下洗車,水就會從車窗滲透進來。

I have had it handwashed with jet spray quite a few times, no water seeped in through windows.

I have washed my Macan 4 EV with a pressure washer more than 10 times and never had a leak problem.

Remember: do not have the comfort access systems enabled with the key near the car when washing it.

Also, "resetting" the window heights (as previously stated in this thread) is usually a solution.

Finally, the physical manual has instructions for putting the windshield wipers in and out of service mode. I couldn't find the instructions in the online manual.

  1. Turn off the ignition / operational readiness.
  2. Press the windshield wiper stalk down and release it.
This works on most Porsche, Audi, VW and other VAG cars.

我已經用高壓清洗機清洗我的 Macan 4 EV 十多次了,從未出現洩漏問題。

請記住:洗車時,請勿將鑰匙放在汽車附近並啟用舒適進入系統。

此外,「重置」視窗高度(如本線程前面所述)通常是一種解決方案。

最後,實體手冊提供了有關如何將擋風玻璃刮水器置於和退出服務模式的說明。我在線上手冊中找不到說明。

感謝您的回复,我會再試一次

I have not tested for window leaks but am disappointed that the rear hatch drips water along the right and left inside edges of the rear trunk when lifted after a rainstorm. I expected it to channel the water along the outside edges of the tailgate like most other cars.

My Jag I-Pace is the same. Seems everything outside the seals is considered outside and in the open.
