Hey all.

it seems however is set the scheduled charging (in the car or app.) that the car always charges immediately.

There charging doesnt do the bluw flashing light on the cap and just charges immediately.

anyone any advice??

This is by design if you SoC is below 25%.

Common complaint with Macan EV or Taycan that you cannot simply set a time period for charging to occur. Porsche decided that you need an emergency buffer of at least 25% when you plug in before any other charging logic is considered.

I'am aware of the 25% but even if the SoC is 50% it starts immediately.
At the moment I investigate if it is caused by the EVSE.

Mine does this randomly…tonight I plugged it in and it showed the scheduled departure as the weekend and started charging immediately as per my weekend schedule. Something is definitely off, but randomly.
