Yesterday, when I got into my Macan 4, a tire change detected warning popped up. I have not gotten new tires. Googling it shows that it usually clears itself; however, it hasn't.

These are the original tires with about 11K miles on them

Any suggestions, or should I talk to Service about this?

Thank you in advance.

Try going into car settings and select a different tire size then reenter your tire size. Then go drive and it should recalibrate your tires.

Thank you, I will give it a try.

Just an FYI, and a thank you, I tried your suggestion and it worked perfectly.

Yes and many of them produce false signals ;)
I drove my, relatively sensor free, BMW yesterday and it felt so nice not having warning sounds going off and the steering wheel not randomly turning into oncoming traffic!

I got one of these yesterday while I was driving on the highway. Apparently with the warm weather she wanted some summer tires to stretch her legs. I switched the tire configuration back to all seasons and she stopped nagging me.

Coincidentally, later I noticed the lights were not flashing on approach or departure. Doors locked and unlocked, however. I'll have to go through the settings and see if there are any other changes.

Seriously?? The only time mine comes even close to trying to turn on it's own is to keep me in a lane .. above 30 mph .. normally that doesn't bother me unless there's some idiot parked on the side of the road partly to mostly in the lane. Unfortunately, that happens a lot here with 'mow and blow' guys turning our streets into single lane roads. There must be something wrong with the sensors on your car. I would take it to the dealer ... on the other hand, this forum is rife with people complaining about their Porsche dealers. I'm truly sorry if you have one of those.

Actually, I disabled ALK and now it's perfect 😍. I had wrongfully assumed it was required for InnoDrive.
