    Piano black climate control: how will you protect it?

    I just bought the smallest set to include the climate controls. And got the Insurance to provide a second set! Based on the instructions given, I'm surprised they didn't mention latex-type gloves, as a detailer would use, to avoid fingerprints. There are discount codes available via google...

    New Porsche mobile app version dropped last night - Apple Watch complications finally fixed

    The black one is California. The blue background is Modular. The Porsche graphic is a complication that only shows up for that wide space. Without the custom color, it shows a photo of your car instead, and then changes to the silhouette when you change the background.

    Macan EV Turbo recall: rear axle harness

    I wonder if this is related to the PTV+ system. Standard on the Turbo and Optional on the 4S. I did select this option. I shall drop a note to my service guy to find out.

    Plastic Trim Care

    PERL is water based. Doesn't last as long, but doesn't attract dust.

    Plastic Trim Care

    I'm using CarPRO PERL, diluted with water 3:1. It certainly looks good after application, but I have no idea what the long term protection will be from this.

    New Porsche mobile app version dropped last night - Apple Watch complications finally fixed

    Hmm, and now my watch is losing 1% battery every 2-3 minutes. Edit: It seems to have settled down now. But I think looking at the watch, with this widget on the dial, uses a lot more power than previously.

    New Porsche mobile app version dropped last night - Apple Watch complications finally fixed

    Gah - the State of Charge complication on the dial shows the Guess O Meter number, which we all know is a terrible guess, and does not show the percentage! (The car name could be shorter to fit better as well) The widget form at least shows how much of the bar is full, giving an idea of the SOC...

    Dashcam installation issues -- fuse box location?

    Fuse A1 in the frunk is 10 amp for the switched 12v wire in the harness Fuse E12 is 5 amp for the un switched 12v wire in the harness. if you want Parking Mode, you will need both fuses installed (at least for my Viofo) to enable both 12v wires

    Spare Tire found! EZ Spare Wheel Installed

    Yes. All Macan wheels have a very similar tire diameter - the larger the wheel, the lower the profile of the tire to keep that constant - and the spare has a close enough diameter to work in an emergency. It's about 30" total diameter. eg (from online tire calculators) the spare measures out...

    Fuse assignment

    10 amps for ACC, per Porsche docs https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2024/MC-11011672-0001.pdf

    Dashcam installation issues -- fuse box location?

    Porsche documentation says 10 amp. 5 amp fuse is for the passenger footwell location https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2024/MC-11011672-0001.pdf Edit: 5 amp is probably ok for third-party dash cams, but there may be a reason that the Porsche dash cam needs 10 amps here, where the Battery fuse...

    Dashcam installation issues -- fuse box location?

    Luckily, the red fuse is situated in the easiest part of the fuse box to reach without removing the whole thing. You might need to re-tuck the rubber frunk surround when putting it back together, but snapping off the cover and opening the box gave enough access. My installer did the work, and...

    New Macan EV Video Review: “The Most Fun To Drive SUV”

    I ordered them in black for our Frozen Blue 4S, as a contrast and to match the rest of the black trim on the car. However, we will never use them, and they get in the way for washing the car. I need a step stool to reach over them to get to the inside edges for washing and drying.

    FROZEN BLUE Macan EV Photos Thread

    From this angle, you can see the Glacier Blue headlight option. It's hilarious reversing into these spots, as the reverse traffic detection goes nuts for the busy street behind.

    Sudden Range Drop at 80% Charge in Macan 4S

    I have just encountered this same 'problem' (or one similar). For the longest time, my GOM has been suggesting 100% is over 330 miles, often as much as 360 miles, despite my general consumption being 3.1-3.2 miles/kwh (294-304 miles on a full charge). Today, I dropped to 15% SOC before doing a...

    Compatibility of Tesla Mobile Connector with Porsche Macan EV

    I was once in a BMW Z8 group where one of the members parked more than too close to the edge at Post Ranch Inn. Almost lost it down the cliff at the side of their driveway. The wide tires saved the day. Also Big Sur was the first time I paid for $6+ gallon gas in the USA - 15+ years ago!

    Compatibility of Tesla Mobile Connector with Porsche Macan EV

    If you, like me, refuse to give money to Tesla, then the Grizzl-e Mini Connect is a good substitute. Small (although the bag it comes in is quite large), and provided with 4 adaptors for all the plug types you might ever need. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C94HPCPD I also purchased a much...
