    AC power charging limited to 3.8kwh

    yes for sure. around the same time i had plenty of errors. I am sure it is hardware related. m As i tried to reset everything i could on the car. There are loud sounds coming out of the corner drivers back end near the charger plug. Sounds like a compressor sound. only happens during...

    AC power charging limited to 3.8kwh

    Suddenly AC charging won’t charge faster then 3.x kWh usually get 9.x KWh

    Any perspective on protective wraps if they are worth the cost ?

    With GEICO here in the US it is the opposite. They told me PPF repair is more expensive than the Paint Job that is why they won't cover/pay for PPF damage.

    Coding Options

    AFAIK : coding is soo locked down that even the very people at the dealership need to get permission from porsche. All coding is now encrypted and needs to be decrypted and approved on the server level (Germany) I was told. Nothing you can do locally anymore unless you find a way to crack the...

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

    My 12 V battery draw is higher than on maybe someone else's car who does not have a dashcam. if the 12V is less used the car should also less likely take too much if any to charge the 12V ...so the SoC loss is less as well. Mine is 1% SoC loss per day as my 12V battery is drained constantly.

    Any perspective on protective wraps if they are worth the cost ?

    The downside that I have found out is that my insurance (geico) is not going to cover the extra cost to reapply the ppf if a damage is done to repair they will pay for the paint work but not the added wrap. They are nickel and dime ing everything the even hackle with dealerships on pricing...

    Turbo - red circle of death, perhaps a fix for my car... but battery idle issue

    Yes based on my test now anything below 15%SoC will stop its maintaining of the LV battery.

    Turbo - red circle of death, perhaps a fix for my car... but battery idle issue

    oh and yes you are sort of right about the lack of Maintaining the LV Battery. I was told the HV car recharges the LV 2xTimes and then gives up (Stops). so it all had to be a simple programming issue to just not give up anymore.

    Turbo - red circle of death, perhaps a fix for my car... but battery idle issue

    I went to the Mothership in Stuttgart and told them about it and they fixed it when i got back home to the US. This is all beyond the dealerships here in my opinion. I tried that first but honestly they have no clue as my German fellows are not really forthcoming to them it seems. I had to go...

    Turbo - red circle of death, perhaps a fix for my car... but battery idle issue

    not sure if that helps. in any way. I had no SoC loss until i asked for an update. Now i have about 1% SoS Loss per day. But that is to be expected now that i asked them to have the HV battery maintain the LV battery. I have a dashcam that draws about 0.7Ah nonstop. And in the past it drained...

    Dealer using your car for other things than the repair

    I was told today that they did a final road test with the Car to make sure everything is fine before they hand it over to me. I ask if it is custom that you would take non Porsche personal with you on this. He said yes sometimes we try to combine a trip if possible.

    Dealer using your car for other things than the repair

    Did that happen to anyone at a dealer where they use your car that is in for service to drive another costumer to his home without you know or your consent. This rubbed me certainly the wrong way. But maybe i am overthinking this. Somehow it just does not fit well with me. To be fair i also...

When i saw it being removed early in the beginning of their work i was not to worried. But then i saw the...
