    Car turns back on when I get out

    This all comes down to crappy software - it's clearly controlled by something that is half baked. Some people don't mind but there is a ton of such minor flaws that are just obvious bad design or bugs. Plus the lack of OTA updates which could fix these things which you should reasonably expect...

    Will all macan get the GTS PCM update that gives you charging speed based on the battery's temp?

    BTW look at https://www.reddit.com/r/AudiQ6/ there are literally more posts about problems than about everything else.

    Will all macan get the GTS PCM update that gives you charging speed based on the battery's temp?

    This is an interesting observation - that sales are dropping because simply there are too many alarming stories of issues and people having bad service experience. Look at how many customers report having the heater replaced and often multiple times. I think people who are in the position to buy...

    Car turns back on when I get out

    No it's not that. When you park the car and turn it off with a power on/off button it actually turns itself off and all the screens go black. You cat sit in the car after that and it's off. But when you move (to get up and out) it turns itself back on. That's the issue.

    Car turns back on when I get out

    This does not explain why when turning off the vehicle with a turn on/off button and trying to leave it turns itself on again ;)

    Car turns back on when I get out

    This is just one of many small annoyances you just have to accept and forget - this car is half baked on many fronts. Some people don't mind and I would suggest doing the same or else it will drive you mad. Be glad it does not turn itself off while driving ;)

    Front (air) suspension cracking sound over speed bumps

    I have one (with air suspension) and it does not help at all. It's not only driving over bumps but in general breaking over road imperfections. I think this shows this bulletin is BS. It's not "by design" as it does not affect all cars. I've driven loaners with PASM and air suspension without...

    Front (air) suspension cracking sound over speed bumps

    Well, that settles it: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2026/MC-11028576-0001.pdf "Noises that occur due to the design of the anti-dive function in uneven roads or overriding obstacles, such as road edges, speed bumps, can be interpreted incorrectly as a component defect" "(...) inform the...

    Route planner getting dumber?

    Is it just me or have the mobile app and PCM route planner gone totally dumb over the last couple of weeks? It ignores preferred charging networks (IONITY in my case), selects charging stations with way less power when literally right next to them are available chargers twice that fast. On my...

    2026 Macan GTS EV Drive Reviews (Videos & Articles)

    I noticed this part as well. His first review of the 4/4S from the press launch event was like "drives great, like a Porsche". Now the tune is different and he says it's "twitchy" and it's the GTS that "drives like a Porsche". I would take all these reviews with a grain of salt. The same goes...

    Chinese software & charging test

    That's true, I had many serious software issues but most if not all of them have been solved. I think it was due to MY2024 with its early version of the software which was fixed in the following upgrades. To be honest with you my case was an extreme one but they managed to solve all issues but...

    Comfort Vs Sports seats

    Having driven lots of kms in sport seats in mine vs comfort seats in loaners I have to say sport seats are much more comfortable and a much better choice for an SUV where you sit quite high. Lack of proper support in comfort seats make them uncomfortable in the long run. I would check club...

    Software updates - why is Porsche so far behind.......?

    To be fair there are some important updates pushed for Taycan like WSQ7 update to high-voltage converter, as I understand it improves charging curve on 400v chargers: https://www.taycanforum.com/forum/threads/an-actual-ota-update-for-dc-charging-stability.33296/ It's very rare however and...

    Chinese software & charging test

    You have a point but to me these are not comparable cars. One is a value-oriented sedan, the other is a premium performance SUV. If you compare let's say Taycan to Xiaomi SU7 it's a different story. And to be fair comparing these cars always comes down to value for money which is not, has never...
