Hi, it's seems there is a new version of the latest update that resolves some of the issues that have been reported here.

https://dot.report/bulletins/MC-11033390-0001.pdf

Seems like you can only get it when you complain hard about any of the following...

Electric Macan EV New VR28.13 SQ4 update 1781622857862-vg


Electric Macan EV New VR28.13 SQ4 update 1781622873714-2k


It also mentions something about a next update set for 6/2026:

The update may only be carried out in the event of complaints or when repairing or replacing components , even if the Porsche Tester displays deviations in the integration test for affected control units (red integration test). This procedure is a temporary exception that is expected to be lifted in 06/2026 with the next integration update.

I had the car in service for the initial VR.28.13 update after which the GPS started acting up.

Then I brought it in again and got another update (SW4?). Now the ISA sound is much more silent (much better!) and I have not had a single issue since. Not even any yellow alert. I am pretty happy.

.... might be complaints about the lack of functional updates. However, understood.

I have had the SQ4 update applied for a few weeks now, and I am noticing a newfound stability in the software. I currently only have a media play back issue/amp (+ recently started only playing sound out one side of the car). and the downgrade for on board charging is still active. I'm in at the end of the month hoping there is a new OBC update, and the audio media playback system is corrected with the intended amp replacement.

So many other issues seem to have not come back, but weather has also improved so really hard to say if it's just software - but indications are somewhat positive at this time that SQ4 is a meaningfull update.

To me it feels like before the SQ4 that the update wasn’t really „active“. I know it makes no sense but somehow SQ4 finally fixed all the things they mentioned in the initial release notes. While initially the changes were barely noticeable.
