  1. Macan Turbo EV – Sport Plus vs Normal… turns out it was Just Regen?

    you can set regen on or off for Normal mode as well ... coasting is always more efficient. The only issue I have when regen is off, the car does not use the regen of the brake pedal the first 5 to 10 minutes ... so typically I have the auto regen on at the start of the day and turn it off after...
  2. PASM with steel suspension vs air

    The Air suspension is quite firm, even in Normal mode it is not floaty like most Air suspensions tent to be … so in that respect it is a + On the other hand I would have preferred a comfort mode on them beside OffRoad/Normal/Sport/SportPlus
  3. OBD to track Battery SOH?

    If anything after the last update of the Macan the values make even less sense in Car Scanner … there is nothing useful to be gathered anymore 🤷‍♂️
  4. Chinese software & charging test

    If we need to find comfort in how bad a Chinese car is at 1/3 of the price we need help 😂 But then again it could be worse, what is fast charging when you need to return to the previous charger because the route planner was to optimistic:
  5. ⚡️ Home Charging Issues after Software Update? (Tracking Thread)

    The thing I learn from this is that at Porsche they really do not follow the forums, and yes, now days you do not even need to do it via a human ... the fact that they do not pick this up is borderline crazy ... I do not have proof, but BMW is watching this kind of backlash and fix or add...
  6. 2026 GTS vs 2024 Turbo

    Go for the cheaper one, you always will have less depreciation, and there are always people that want the fastest. There is no noticeable improvement from a hardware perspective, not more range, not faster charging, only Apple CarKey support, if that is important to you That could be a factor...
  7. Long trip / cold start

    Agree and if you can start with a warm battery your gain will be like 5 minutes max, and less strain on the battery when you rip the car through the 🏔️ I did the test on a 1000km trip one departing with a warm battery and one with a cold battery coming back. But some claim that pre conditioning...
  8. Long trip / cold start

    - Plenty of proof, if not why is regen and or charging limited when battery is cold, because it will accelerate damage/degradation ... ✅ - using the plan, Ah so you do use preheating ✅ - the video and my test show clearly more capacity, for instance when I do a capacity measure with my iX (a...
  9. Long trip / cold start

    + the fact you loose an additional 20 to 30 minutes on your first charge with a cold battery + the fact that you induce less wear/degradation on the battery + you get more range so nullifying the energy used to preheat … Anyway I think I have proven that my overall energy consumption at...
  10. Impact of cruising speed on range

    The trip going there was identical in regards to average consumption … there is not much uphill / downhill highest point on the trip is 1200 but we do not stay there so it is just on the way … it’s more of a 1000km with 900 km being rather flat so no it has nothing todo with elevation 😜
  11. Any perspective on protective wraps if they are worth the cost ?

    Done clear PPF to my black Turbo, have one part already damaged by someone, nice to know I can mow just replace that part. Other benefit, black is very sensitive optically to micro scratches when washing ... now after one year it still looks as from factory ...
  12. Impact of cruising speed on range

    Most of the driving around 130km/h when possible ... heated battery, started at 2C in mountains and had the rest between 5 and 10C ...
  13. Long trip / cold start

    I have posted this over and over again: - I posted a video that shows that the energy spent on warming up the battery has a positive outcome, the battery will be able to give more energy than what the pre heating spends ... that was done with a Skoda but that doesn't matter. - yes program a DC...
  14. Let's share your Road trip experience!

    When roadtripping when it’s cold, I make sure my battery is nice and warm, above 20C as this increases capacity, lowers consumption and makes the pre conditioning to your DC charger quicker and spent less to no energy … effect for me is about 15 to 30 minutes less wasted time … This is not...
  15. [Thoughts] - Macan 4 Loaner vs. Macan Turbo EV (owned)

    What about consumption and range? Really curious on that front …
  16. Replacement Tyres

    Goodyear winter tires and Goodyear summer tires when my Potenza’s are gone (which they will after about 15k km’s)
  17. Wireless CarPlay not working

    Same there is an old thread that discussed this … you need to change the wifi hotspot password to be compliant to the new rules.
  18. MY26 software update (week 36) for MY24-25

    I do not know if the home charging is solved yes or no, but I think the issue is not the voltage it’s the neutral line and or grounding. We had a power outage and when they fixed it temporary for a few hours all devices worked except my fridge … I checked the wall plug and it was delivering 230v...
