Well, if there is TI (Technical Information) on how to adjust the misaligned charger flap, then ideally if the dealerships order new ones then Porsche should refuse and direct them to that TI 🤔

You would think that would happen. The TI is new so maybe from now on

Man...these guys need to do their jobs. It took my guys almost no time to figure this out. The internal document (which they did not show me but explained in detail) is called a TI (Technical Information). They should call the Victoria BC service department if they cannot find it but if you have to tell them that ....well that is messed up big time....just saying...lol.
I can only imagine they would have done their due diligence before ordering new parts. Porsche Warranty services wouldn't have approved the parts and labour for my particular vehicle if the fix was simple in this situation.

I think both scenarios may be valid. Some can be adjusted, some are out of spec and may require new doors.

I would guess if some doors are being ordered and sent to be replaced, they had a bad batch of doors from their sub tier supplier.

Porsche doesn’t announce these things. They quietly fix them.

My Macan EV Manually operated charging flaps on both sides do not sit flush.

I went to Porsche dealership Solihull UK and they said it was in tolerance.
To me it isn’t within tolerance given it’s a Porsche.

Anyone else noticed this ?
Agreed. I took delivery of my 2024 Macan EV in September after ordering it in February, as was told it was the first delivery in Fort Worth, so mine was shipped very early. I mentioned it to the sales and service reps, they said they all look like that. Hoping it's a slight imperfection that gets fixed in the new vehicles. The car is really terrific, and I love it.
