    Second key dead

    It should definitely be a warranty item unless it’s a dead battery. I do not believe there is any pairing the customer can do with the key to the vehicle. Porsche service would have tools for that.

    April 2026 Consumption Figures - Share Yours

    You can simply divide the distance by the time that is shown. I’m noticing that most of these fairly optimal numbers are with average speeds of 30 to 40 mph. I am not seeing such numbers, but then my average speed is over 55 mph.

    Touch screen failed.

    I had the center screen and the optional right passenger screen boot up and then turn black on April 4 & 5th, I resolved by holding down the volume button for 30 seconds which reset resets the PCM. I found that in an another posting on this forum. I found out that Porsche North America was...

    The Journey of Stealth 2.0

    Well, my large journey starts tomorrow morning, but I did want to share my one charging session with preconditioning when I came home from Los Angeles. I didn’t need much only about 10% added to the battery. I stopped in Los Alamos at the EA, it’s actually a favorite charger of mine because so a...

    Does your Macan EV keep SoC stable when left idle for a week or longer?

    I received my car (2026 Macan 4) on April 10 after my experience center, Delivery in Los Angeles. I dropped it with a detailer on April 11 before a flight to Washington for one week. When I dropped the vehicle, it was 67%, it had dropped to 66% of the day the detailer did the window tinting and...

    First long trip and charging with Tesla

    @BruceS2 was trying to use a fast charger, not a resort charger. There are three Tesla superchargers in San Luis Obispo. The Madonna in one of course is the most famous but is an older unit and not CCS capable. The Porsche dealership of course is the best deal as it’s free, the Costco that is...

    The Journey of Stealth 2.0

    Received my car on the 10th as planned after a 1/2 day of Los Angeles Porsche Experience Center (which I wholeheartedly recommend). They treated my 2 boys 26 & 21 and my wife very well. While I was out on track with a Macan EV. Boys had a go in a 911 and some others things. Excellent opportunity...

    AC switches OFF and Car does not auto-lock anymore

    I understand completely. Now that I received my car and setup phone as a key and left it in the car while still carrying my physical key it fails to lock. Then I realized my issue, after first blaming the car. Will it ever forgive me???

    DCFC Tracker - Nice App

    I wanted to share this ā€œfreeā€ app that is useful for really any EV owner because it helps track down the newer and hopefully more reliable stations. Generally, the 400 kW stations even have a graph on the display that will show the charging curve which I am excited to try very soon as my car is...

    AC switches OFF and Car does not auto-lock anymore

    @macanchan as far as the car, not auto locking when you walk away. That is a setting in the PCM you might want to verify it didn’t get turned off during a software update.

    my new 2026 macan ev turbo (with photos)

    Well, I’m getting my ā€˜26 Macan 4 in a week and I have been pouring over all documentation available. Here is what you were asking: Max. wading depth (steel suspension) (PASM) 11.8 in Max. wading depth (steel suspension) 11.8 in Max. wading depth (air suspension) (normal level) 11.8 in Max...

    The Journey of Stealth 2.0

    Now I am one week from Delivery, a little nervous and mostly excited. I am set to get a GYEON ceramic coat and XPEL XR+ tint on 4 side windows and hatch. Worked out to pick up my car from PECLA two days before we were flying to the east coast and the detailer will take care of it while we’re...

    2025 Macan 4 on latest FW incompatible with Tesla Gen 2 HPWC?

    @atebit the ChatGPT explanation does make a lot of sense, I am trying to understand what settings you had. Do you have a high desired charging level, but just a timer set that is delaying the start? If that’s the case, I would have expected the car to enable the charge for a second or two to...

    Can’t set auto time

    I would first guess that you are in private mode, have the network disabled. Alternatively, does the map show the correct location, are there GPS signal issues? Those would typically be the two ways for the vehicle to automatically set the clock.

    Porsche Electric Sport Sound always defaults to OFF

    I too wish that Porsche would allow saved alterations to the normal mode, but I can understand their thinking as well that the key-on settings are consistent for all cars, not that you could put it into low suspension with key-on or such. This also means that the ESS cannot be automatically...

    Where’s the Apple Music app?

    @JonnyDW from your profile I guess you are in the UK however the flag in this forum shows USA. @Administrator I’m wondering if there is a Country specific filter going on that blocks Apple Music from the UK with the Macan?

    So happy with range on first long trip

    @MacanEVOwner I also appreciate Tom Moloughney’s content both on range tests and especially on L2 chargers. I agree that you get 60 miles more range going at 70 versus 80 miles an hour in his test, but his point was that if you have a fast charging electric vehicle, then you can compensate for...

    The Journey of Stealth 2.0

    It’s very strange now, during financing I see no write up of the Park Assist feature, but this is also the same thing I see when I try to load my saved bill. It gives me a warning that it will remove PX7 and then loads. Due to price increases since my original purchase in October last year even...

    So happy with range on first long trip

    @bgottlie oh, you give me such hope. I should be taking Delivery of my 2026 Macan 4 on April 10th at PECLA. I have over 10,000 miles of road trips planned for the next few months. I will try to collect reasonable analytics. I only expect 19 inch wheels to maximize range. But I seldom drive 70...

    New Google Maps Now Worth Using

    Hi @SergeyIndy I have been living vicariously from this forum and the EVKX site. The charging curve they show for all of the Macan variants (as all same battery) is: The web site is: https://evkx.net/models/porsche/macan/macan_4/chargingcurve
