The funny thing is that, the first time I brought the car to the service they said: “everything is fine”.
I wonder if everything would be fine also if I would have kept driving it, and then if it would have caught on fire (maybe even with me inside)??‍♂️.
but I’m really really happy they are...
Wow! Seems that a recall is on the way for all the cars…
No news, I know they picked the car on Friday and they are transporting it from Czech republic to Germany !
I’ll keep you posted guys!
Unfortunately I don’t know yet, I’m in holidays and I’ll be for the next two weeks… so hopefully I will know something.
If it escalated soooo much, I expect a replacement vehicle for at least the whole repair duration! Without even considering some reimbursement…
So ! I have quiet a big update… as my car seems to be the very first one having this issue, this night (around midnight) I have been contacted by the service and Porsche wants to take back my car and ship it to the Leipzig Factory and fix it over there!
I’ll keep you posted!
Thanks Diego! Really appreciated that!
how many kms did you drive?
I really wonder what’s the problem in my case… I guess I will discover it soon…
I’m going in holidays for 2 weeks, so they are keeping the car and I hope once I’m back that they figured that out…
Could be... I was driving on highway and it happens when I came back home, so maybe insects and dirt... But after shutting down and turning on everything was fine
I have honestly no clue... All of these are great guesses... I think there are some electric components that are not properly working... Now and then I get the message that Safety system are malfunctioning. See pic below:
I will definitely wait for some of their answers. I don't accept anymore "it's normal", "nothing found" etc. If this will happen again I will go to a different dealership and if the different dealership will find an issue, I will sue the dealership from where I purchased the car.
I don't think it was due to external factors, it happened to me in different highways... Plus I got the confirmation that also another Macan that the same dealership has, came back with the same problem...
I didn't try to set recirculate, and it doesn't happen 100% of the time. It's a bit random, but I can definitely feel it 90% of the time I'm driving in the highway for long distances. 40kms+.
No rain at all...
Indeed it is weird and they told me "it's normal" :D I don't think it is normal on a €100K+... The second time they took it and there is something indeed...
Anyway, if it was my first Porsche I would never buy a Porsche again. It arrived with missing string in the trunk hat rack, the painting...
Ciao Diego!
Interesting! Did you have chance to have the clima ON around 25 degrees or higher, 1 of speed and driving for 40km minimum at 130KM/h (Highway driving) ?
I'm just thinking that may be the clima... At least I hope! But from the dealership apparently I'm not the only one...
Hey folks!
I’m curious if anyone else has experienced this issue with their Porsche Macan. I took delivery of a Macan 4 on October 1st and have driven over 3,500 km so far.
Recently, I’ve noticed a strange smell, like something burning, along with some smoke coming from the air vents when I’m...
