I have to say you are very fortunate to have zero issues 😄 For me the total unreliability of the speed limit recognition is unbelievable. It can tell me the limit is 30mph on a 70mph motorway, 60mph on a 20mph city street and anything in between whatever it chooses. Then there are the times when...

It seems that it is now up and running again at least here in the UK. I was contacted by Porsche a couple of days ago to make a booking to have it done though this time they say they need the car for at least 2 days to be sure that it all works. Previously they said they could do it in about 5...

For some weeks I have had my 4 booked in with the dealer for this coming Monday for what was supposed to be the big software update of all sorts of stuff. However, I have just got a message today that the “campaign has been suspended” so my booking is cancelled. Being a pessimist, or at the very...

I am having the oposite happen. When I charge to 100% the app shows me as having about 300 or so miles range which I am happy with. But then, as soon as I get in the car the range shown on the dashboard has dropped to about 270 or so miles. Then when I start driving and do a decent enough trip...

I moved to a Macan 4 in February after having had 2 Jaguar iPaces since 2019 and before that 25 plus years of various Mercedes ICE's. I haven't had to have a service yet on the Macan as that will only be due in November 2026 but I have to say that I have had pretty decent customer service with...

I have never used anything except water on my wheels and still have these "scratches"

I have got this too after 5 months ownership and 6,000 miles. I will ask for replacments and see how I get on.

? Ha ha. However, as I thought I made clear I drive out of London very frequently. I would prefer to be able to use the Porsche route map but due to the speed limit recognition being so unreliable I always use Waze. mmh. Tell that to the speed camera you next encounter and the magistrates court...

Live in Central London but travel to Suffolk a lot

I think you must be the only owner I have heard of so far who hasn’t had an issue. ?. I have had it tell me that the speed limit has gone from 70 to 30 to 80 all on the same stretch of motorway or dual carriageway. Sometimes it’s accurate if a clear sign is there on the side of the road but...

Curious that you don’t mention the speed recognition issue that I and many others have that means the speed limit shown in the car is totally useless and I have to rely on Waze at all times. Was that just an oversight or do you really have no issues with speed limit recognition

Sorry to be thick or lazy or both but can you tell me how to check the map version please. Thanks in advance.

I suggest anyone whose dealer says they have never encountered this problem should cut and paste this chain of posts plus similar ones on other macan ev sites. It is obvious that this is a serious problem for all of us, whether equipped with innodrive not, and that it is the rare exception in...

I have found the speed limit indicator absolutely hopeless. Sometimes it decides to be accurate but as often as not it will show 30, 40 or 60 on a 70mph dual carriage way, 30, 40, or 60 in 20mph London streets and so on. Yesterday for example, on the A12 between the M25 and Ipswich all of which...
