    Continuing Battery and Charging Issues - 2025 Macan 4

    The SQ5 is supposed to solve this behavior, am I wrong?

    Monkey Butt (US Only) Removal: How-to DIY process and pictures

    And where are you supposed to put all of that in a car like this one? Maybe that's why it was only sold in Europe and Japan…

    Cost of 20,000 mile service?

    Even the CR2032 battery price is insane, 22.29 USD !!! Without the "labor". The retail price on Amazon, which isn't the cheapest, is around 0.70 USD.

    Hands-Free Assistant available Macan EV, only model in Porsche lineup so far for 2027 model year, in configurator under i tab for Drive Assist option

    This has been discussed many times on this forum: no new features—not even software only features —are available for older models. On older models, they only offer updates to fix what they consider to be problems. No new features are added to a model after it has been delivered. That’s what...

    Battery Temperature Indicator on App

    Are we talking about the same thing? The battery temp has been always available in the left tube, for instance a Macan turbo 2024 screenshot

    Front Camera OUT, service claims rodent

    It took them one full day to diagnose and solve that? 6 or 7 hours (depending on the cost of the new wire) to fix that ? That's insane. Even more at a 200 euros hourly rate. It could be a rat, but it's very strange that there is no remaining insulation around the connector itself. Do you have a...

    Loss of power on highway

    Thanks. I know only one case in France that is the same. This issue seems to be very rare, obviously the vast majority of Macans EV is almost problem free. My only path is to prosecute, unfortunately... because I can't resell this car without disclosing this dangerous problem (and what is the...

    Cost of 20,000 mile service?

    take a look at the video at #13 post. We can see where the filter is, it gives clues on how to replace it.

    Moonroof rattle

    Years ago, I've had the same rattle issue on a 911 type 997 targa 4s, and the fix was exactly the same: a specific type of lubricant! Macans do have 911 grassroots

    Loss of power on highway

    Sorry for you. It seems to be the same problem as mine. They tried 4 times to fix that (3 months total at the dealership), and since end of may, my car is at the dealership with no real news and lawyers involved. If you have an automatic lemon law, go for it, they don't know how to fix that...

    Who Else Is Waiting? 2027 Macan GTS Electric in Oak Green Metallic Neo

    RAS is cool, but there is a catch when you park in reverse: the car doesn't behave as usual, and it's very easy to scratch wheels on the curbs.

    Who Else Is Waiting? 2027 Macan GTS Electric in Oak Green Metallic Neo

    Obviously, the Macan GTS or Turbo are the best when it comes to handling, dynamics... and IMO the look is amazing, interior & exterior. The only two other competitors are the BMW ix3 50 (huge battery and good efficiency, so big automomy ; but the interior, it looks like a Tesla, no active...

    Macan Turbo EV, 22 months of software faults. Now fixed, but it has cost Porsche a customer.

    The publication of such release notes, service bulletins ans so on is mandatory in the US. So the NHTSA website is your friend (at least), and you will see how bad Porsche dealerships behavior is: they have a very precise source of information (those notes are for them!), but they almost never...

    Macan Turbo EV, 22 months of software faults. Now fixed, but it has cost Porsche a customer.

    Yes arrogant, and incompetent, to say the least. Imagine that the behavior is the same, even in front of a dangerous problem: total loss of power in any circumstances. Car could have killed my family and me several times, but they keep saying "we think the problem is solved". It was not, never...

    Macan Turbo EV, 22 months of software faults. Now fixed, but it has cost Porsche a customer.

    100% agree. Total truth. Two different countries, owners, cars and dealerships: my experience of Porsche is the same. That's the way that Porsche (Dealership, Porsche France and Porsche AG) behaves when they can't solve a problem. Dodge, always blame the customer, and try to charge him a huge...

    [North America] - just noticed this…

    Ownership experiences are also about issues Porsche (and its dealerships) is the king when it comes to concealing things through misleading release notes and/or false statements. It's also part of the ownership experience. Sadly.

    Porsche Announced Reduced Pricing, Advanced Package for Macan EV

    Yes!! Porsche still thinks that it's normal to deliver a 90ke car (namely the Macan 4) without comfort (ie keyless entry) access and without Electrochromic Interior (and Exterior) Mirrors! Still need in 2027 to check those options...

    Random Braking

    I agree (my car can lose all its power even on the highway, so I do agree), but my point was that this kind of phantom braking is, to my knowledge, very rare with the Macan on the highway, and therefore isn't generally a cause for concern. Apparently, based on your experience, I was wrong…

    Route planner getting dumber?

    I dislike Tesla for many reasons, but obviously, during my 8 years of ownership of Teslas S, X, 3, I've had several updates with improved features (such as the Nav, the same thing that Porsche doesn't allow due to hardware limitations... bullshit), new features (sentinel mode, several new...
