Ditto on checking lug nut torque. Just checked my very recently acquired Macan and found four lug nuts not up to 119 ft. pounds, e.g., two ust just a lfew pounds low; two more than acceptably low.

I have not found a solution that eliminates the vibration, but it is reduced by keeping the tires at higher pressures. At 44 psi it is not too noticeable but the ride is harsher so I'm currently running about 42 to 43 psi in all tires. I'm taking the car in on Monday for the recall and will have the technician check out the vibration and will update if he finds anything.

My Car ist currently under review at the dealer. It is not coming from the tires. They assume its coming from one of the electric engines. Next week they are ging to mount vibration sensors in the car to locate where its coming from.

Issue is fixed after replacing the rear engine.
Somewhat reminiscent of a problem that kept my 992 C4S off the road for three months (out of the 12 that I owned it!). The dynamic engine mounts were incorrectly installed (and as a result failed). Took three weeks to diagnose and the rest of the time to get replacements from Germany, to the UK where I was living at the time. I got way more experience of Boxster driving than I expected when I bought the 911.

Glad to hear your problem is now behind you.

All in all the car was 2 weeks at the Dealer. They have loaded a new Software. I got Interim a new Panamera 4 and a new Cayenne S. At the end i am glad to have the Macan back. I like it a lot.

wait, they replaced the rear electric motor?! Was this on the service record/invoice?

The reason why I ask is because sometimes the service advisor says one thing but it's actually different on paper...
