Honestly, I don't really know. As you can see from below, I've averaged 3.5 miles/kWh over 12,600 miles. This includes very cold winter driving, typically below or well below freezing during winter months, during which I'm closer to 3 Miles/kWh or slightly less. The car is garaged in a heated...
I have a speculative answer for your particular situation. The majority of MY 24 cars were delivered to dealers late September or early October 2024. I bet when your dealer did the initial prep for the car, the reminder was set for 24 months(i.e. October 2026). They probably did not reset it...
On my MY24, on the rare occasion that I do get those icons, I also get a yellow warning message in the right hand tube, and there's also an exclamation point icon to the right of where your display is showing the lowered car level icon. The ! Is persistent as long as the icons are also showing...
Left hand (collision detection) icon normal at start up, usually goes away after three or four minutes. Disappointing to see the other rotating icons on a 2026, but you say they also go away after a few minutes of driving. Do you also get any warning messages on the right hand tube? If not, I...
Yes, correct, thank you.
I will be clear about why I ask: I have a 2024 whose lease is up in October. I love it and I would buy it out if I weren't worried about ongoing heavy-duty depreciation. I am certainly considering ordering a new one (and given the lead times, I imagine I would...
I think regulars on this forum are by now well-acquainted with the common problems that have been experienced in 2024 and 2025 Macan EV's.
Among other things, update-related charging issues, frequent yellow circles, and red circles, charging port issues, rattles, spurious reboots, odd SOC and...
No; since I have been fortunate so far in not experiencing the issues the update is apparently intended to address, and seeing the issues some people are experiencing post update, I am taking the approach of not fixing what isn't broken (i.e. deferring getting the update until either I need it...
I'm not disagreeing in principle. But... it's not apparent to me whether it is PAG, PCNA, or individual dealers/service writers/service managers, or some combination, who are blaming the victims.
Reading through the posts here, Porsche's entire approach to the EV's nets out to blaming the...
That is great; although if I understand correctly, that test was on a three-phase circuit. Let's hope it generalizes to the North American single phase scenario also.
I don't think this blows your theory. In fact, my bet is that you are essentially correct, meaning that the reason for whatever change was made with this update was to protect the OBC or some other aspect of the charging system, meaning to restrict the total power going to the car. In that case...
It's worse than that. It used to work, and it appears that the update broke it. They must know what was changed. It was not a problem for two years, and suddenly there are multiple reports after the update. How hard can it be to figure this out?
"Simple" way to reduce your voltage.
This just popped into my head. My voltage at the EVSE is typically about 238 volts: I have about 150 foot run from my meter to the EVSE in my garage. (I have not had any software updates in my 2024 Macan 4).
well, of course: voltage drops with run length...
Yesterday. Garage is about 6 C. Drive was about -5 C, and car was parked outside for at least an hour during the drive. 3 miles/KwH implies a range of about 285 miles. 80% would be about 225 miles, which is about what the car showed at the start.
150 miles at 80% would imply a bit over 2...
