    How loud is your windshield wiper relay?

    I have a November 24 build, February 25 delivery. I can't hear my relay.

    NA Porsche owners can now access Tesla Supercharger network. Free adapter for all Macan EV owners

    The welcome packet probably came from the dealer and not Porsche.

    Any experience with "Electrical system error" after AC charging?

    Your EVSE shouldn’t be able to blow a fuse if it is configured correctly to live within the limits of the electrical system. Which adapter were you using? Did the fuse blow immediately after starting the charging?

    Rumble on Part Throttle

    I wonder if the vibration occurs when the front axle is being passively driven. The Macan has a permanent magnet motor without a clutch, so it never completely disconnects. In order to not create a braking force, the motor receives just enough current to keep up with the motion of the vehicle...

    Big update suspended?

    I'm not disputing that the update might create new problems for some given the vast number of different vehicle configurations and country-dependent requirements, but I've had the v28.13 update for about ten days now and haven't noticed any new issues. I experienced one white warning message...

    So called Driver Aid

    I suspect that some of that is also country-dependent. How it behaves could be different in the UK from what I have in the US.

    Paint Protection when car lives on a dirt road

    I have Xpel Fusion PPF on my car but I also have nothing to compare it against. Wouldn't hesitate to get it again though.

    Paint Protection when car lives on a dirt road

    My car occasionally finds itself on a dirt road, but I had full PPF and ceramic coating applied primarily to limit the damage from road debris, bird poop etc. I do a lot of freeway driving with close following distances, and anything that the vehicles in front of you kick up will cause pitting...

    So called Driver Aid

    It could be a small child. That's far more likely than a guy sitting in the cargo area with the tailgate open.

    So called Driver Aid

    It seems at least plausible that the car recognized a human face directly in front of the moving vehicle and performed an emergency stop. But that doesn’t explain the second incident that occurred under completely different circumstances. Unfortunately these systems are foisted on us by law...

    Climate controls query

    However, the windshield wiper nozzles are heated, as is the fluid reservoir. This is the case regardless of whether you have the heated windshield option.

    Dealer using your car for other things than the repair

    In the USA, you also have the option of using Small Claims Court. In New Jersey where the OP is located, the claim limit is $5000, which seems to fit well with this incident. However, you still have to prove some damages, which would be difficult. I agree that making a legal claim...
