  1. 2025 Macan 4S EV - "Assistance Systems Limited" message

    That's already more than I drove before mine cleared.
  2. 2025 Macan 4S EV - "Assistance Systems Limited" message

    One of the three times this happened to me it did not clear overnight, but did spontaneously clear after about a half an hour of driving in clear weather, so my only suggestion short of going to the dealer is drive a bit first if you haven't already.
  3. Worst 1 year review of the Macan 4 - EVER. 8 months at the dealership for issues.

    Rather than start a new poll, I popped this poll back up. Note that as of this second 11.4% of 132 respondents regret their Macan EV purchase. Maybe we can get some updates. It's up to you how you feel about those odds, but that means 88.6% don't regret their purchase. Obviously, YMMV!
  4. Satisfaction survey - Poll for current Macan EV owners only

    Given at least one recent Macan EV disaster thread, I thought it would be worth popping this poll back up and let's see if we can get some more responses.
  5. Worst 1 year review of the Macan 4 - EVER. 8 months at the dealership for issues.

    My gut feel based on reports on this forum, that all model trims have been reported; if anything, the 4 maybe less so. I don't know about Audi's. I guess someone could do a new poll. The last generic poll, months ago now, did not got a lot of response, but I am still curious what percentage...
  6. Worst 1 year review of the Macan 4 - EVER. 8 months at the dealership for issues.

    I feel compelled to add, based on the stories we hear, I suspect a big part of the problem is lack of training and/or expertise on the part of dealer service departments. It would be interesting to know if some dealers are significantly (statistically) more successful at avoiding...
  7. Worst 1 year review of the Macan 4 - EVER. 8 months at the dealership for issues.

    I just have three comments and a follow up question about this situation and any similar: 1. It seems to me that long before a newly-bought car, let alone a Porsche, is out of service because of warranty items for 8 months, the car ought to be bought back, regardless of lemon laws. I believe...
  8. Round trip from NH Lakes Region - Boston Chinatown: 3.8 miles/kWh

    So this is the longest trip I've taken in my Macan 4 in a long time. TLDR: 216 miles @ mostly highway speeds 3.8 miles/kwH. Conceivably Relevant Stats: Macan 4 delivered in October 2024 RWS Rear wiper Standard 20" aero wheels with all season tires About 7500 miles on clock Tires @ 44 psi 216...
  9. Make this car PERFECT

    (5. Allow the rear seats to recline,) While it is certainly true that the rear seats don't recline, a lot of people are unaware of the well-kept secret that the rear seat back brackets rotate, allowing you a more upright position for the rear seatbacks. While this provides a little additional...
  10. 2025 Macan 4S EV - "Assistance Systems Limited" message

    This is working as designed AFAIK. The yellow collision avoidance indicator is to let you know that that function is unavailable when the car first starts up. It apparently needs to do some sort of calibration at the start of your drive, and disappears once the calibration is complete. I...
  11. [FAQ] - EV Chargers - common misconceptions - what is an EVSE?

    Rob, Potential accusations of condescension aside, I think the issue is not whether or not someone refers to an EVSE as a "charger," (and I believe you are correct that many folks who know the difference still call it a "charger.") However, the fact that "charger" is a misnomer leads to...
  12. Turbo service and Macan 4 loaner

    I've had a reasonably loaded 4 (RWS, HUD, 14 ways, heated windshield, leather package, pseudo matrix headlights, BOSE, rear wiper) with base 20s, since October,and I love it. It's more than quick enough, handles well enough for my needs, rides well and I've been averaging almost 4 mi./ kilowatt...
  13. Car & Driver - Macan EV s. Macan T (ICE) Review

    (please forgive the misspelling of the word, McCann, as I dictated this and don't have time to go back and correct my iPad in each respect hopefully you understand my meaning). I haven't read the story yet so I don't know what they said. Here is what I say: I traded a three year-old first...
  14. Macan EV charging at Tesla Supercharger in USA?

    Well, June is in the rearview mirror and VW was supposed to have Tesla charging in June. So I hope this is the first sign that maybe we are just a few days late. I, too, got the notification, but cannot locate a configuration screen that looks like that. I hope it's imminent. I live near the I...
  15. Using ACC with and without ALK

    I only have LKA, not ALK, so I don't know if this helps you, but when using that button at the bottom of the stalk, a quick press turns on LKA, but to shut it off, you need to press and HOLD for a couple of seconds. Might apply to ALK also?
  16. Cold weather battery mileage

    My Macan 4 with 20" base wheels is garage-kept in central NH. Average winter temperatures are well below freezing. My typical driving is 75-80% rural roads (speed limits 30-55 mph) and 20-25% interstate (speed limit 65-70 mph) and I generally stay within 2 mph of the speed limit (4 mph...
  17. How much depreciation are lease deals showing?

    Well obviously no one currently knows actual 2 and 3 year depreciation, because we will only know that when used Macan EV's start selling at that age. The only "hard" numbers that people have access to seem to be what PFS lease residual values are. From what I've seen, in general, the two...
  18. Porsche App Reports "Charger Not Connected" when charging suspended

    I have seen this behavior all along. My normal routine these days is to charge the car to 75%, and leave the charger connected. If I'm going to drive any significant distance, then I change the charge limit to 80% in the app, and the car starts charging again as I would expect, even though it...
  19. How much depreciation are lease deals showing?

    Fwiw, typically oem finance company residuals are based on MSRP, not gross capitalized cost.
  20. Financing vs Lease

    in addition to the EV credit, and a couple of other reasons stated in this thread, there are at least two more reasons, potentially. The first reason when it applies (but it rarely or never applies to Porsche) is that car manufacturers will subsidize leases, generally by having artificially...
