    Body colored wheel arches and lower valence trim…

    In my random YouTube viewing, chanced upon this unit which seems to have body coloured trim for the wheel arches and lower valence pieces (all that horrid grey plastic under the door). Won’t lie, if this had been an option at point of manufacture, I’d have picked this in a heartbeat - was the...

    How-To: Install Macan EV OEM Front LP

    Won’t lie - I’d be paranoid about DIY’ing installation of the following myself in case my alignment was off…My OCD would kill me if i did this off-centre :eek: One time I’d be happy to give to dealership as I’d expect/hope they would have a guide template for this.

    MY26 software update (week 36) for MY24-25

    Thanks @Pepppie for this - probably the first ā€˜definitive’ set of release notes we have for the following (28.13) Will be interesting to see how the update improves/rectifies issues for those people who have been experiencing errors. Those hoping for the Digital Key or other enhancements in...

    MY26 software update (week 36) for MY24-25

    This actually looks like my scheduled work list. So please let me know how it goes.:) Slightly OT - Besides the software update, does anyone know what the luggage cover (WSG4) item is about? Is it a new part? As for vehicle software versioning (for control modules), I don’t know if there’s a...

    MY26 software update (week 36) for MY24-25

    Would be interested to see what the version number is on the new release and the million-dollar question of what potential new features (if any) it may bring. My vehicle hasn’t had the earlier VR 28.11 update done yet (no real faults to speak since taking delivery in late Feb besides 3 PCM...

    the mobile app has stopped receiving data from my car

    Dredging this back up - but could ask if people are still having this issue? (Ie no 4G/5G connectivity and very intermittent remote access services). Malaysia has had issues for last month (vehicle status in app unavailable) and we’ve been told that it’s a telco agreement issue.

    the mobile app has stopped receiving data from my car

    Was at my dealership today and my SA mentioned this issue... Seems to be a Porsche server-side issue but doesn't affect all vehicles (my still seems to be updating via app) - which MIGHT mean (depending on config) it may only affect certain servers/users?

    Interior mobile phone charging cover doesn’t auto-close - Warranty Claim

    I’m kinda aligned with your thinking tbh - since taking delivery in late Feb, this has probably been the only ā€˜actionable’ item that I’d want fixed under warranty (eventually) - the only other minor issue being a minor squeak somewhere in the rear c-pillar at delivery that was/is intermittent...

    More comfort, smarter assistance and enhanced entertainment for the Porsche Macan

    Think until the October update is actually deployed, there'll be a lot of speculation as to what prior MY models will be able to get. I wrote to my SA earlier and they're also unsure of what it may bring... In my mind, the new parking virtualisation and features will probably require new...

    Interior mobile phone charging cover doesn’t auto-close - Warranty Claim

    Hey @Frankie, I got this from a post that @krissrock found in January... It's a brilliant reference, although actual part numbers are behind a pay wall - guess everyone has to eat... :) Original thread here with link to the parts site below: https://porsche.7zap.com/en/europe/XAB-857/

    Interior mobile phone charging cover doesn’t auto-close - Warranty Claim

    Unfortunately for this phone charger cover issue, Service team has confirmed that they'll need to strip the centre console - apparently the tricky bit will be not to damage/scratch the leather on the grab handles.... Let's see what happens when the part arrives...

    Interior mobile phone charging cover doesn’t auto-close - Warranty Claim

    Had this problem pop-up 3 weeks ago . The auto-close function on the phone charging flap has given up and refuses to close - this despite it pretty much never being used (and left in the closed position). Went to the dealer and was told that they also had another 3 cars that had this issue (2...

    3D Mats - Glory Series - Initial Impressions

    Ordered these a couple months ago but were on back-order here in Malaysia - just arrived a couple days ago back. I had originally wanted the Kagu series (to match my other vehicle) - but my country distributor indicated they wouldn’t be bringing them in (for whatever reason). Fit and finish...

    PPF / Ceramic

    I also have the off-road package and can confirm that my installer (Xpel) did have the painted parts that you mentioned covered. Parts were also templated and pre-cut for fitment.

    Full PPF wrap and now that...

    Man that really bites @BigApple… Really sorry to see that. Just to be clear, you had PPF on the headlights as well? I guess there’s a limit to which PPF can protect (especially glass areas). Many years back, I had a similar incident with our Merc W204 - car was <6 months old. Fog lamp was only...

    Wheel arch extensions

    Man, thanks @krissrock for the breakdown and the great pics! ?Am sure this will help anyone looking to embark on the same retrofit! But yes, I totally agree to your point that it’s curious why they went with two distinct fenders given the relatively minor change in tyre width - would have...

    PPF / Ceramic

    For me was mainly for the peace of mind and trying to keep the car looking as good as possible against ā€˜general’ wear & tear. As a first-timer (PPF’er) as well, I did a full body (Xpel) and ceramic coat (Xpel Fusion) on top done at showroom prior to delivery. I opted for Xpel mainly because...

    Article: Macan EV is an out-of-the-gate sales success

    This has got to be the most cynical thread in the forum I’ve seen thus far… all good when viewed in that lens - but a couple of posts had me worried at first (especially from @daveo4EV ?)

    Carkey on Audi A6 (PPE), coming next on the Macan?

    +1 - we’ve all been holding our breath on this (and other CarPlay features) since discussion last year. Let’s hope this feature does get rolled out to all Macan EVs (including those already delivered) and doesn’t turn out to be an additional hardware dependant or ā€œ2026+ Model buildā€ only type...
