100% agree! Now I have solar and batteries, it's no longer a concern as the off peak octopus charges my batteries and all the solar gets sold back to the grid. But people without solar/batteries can flex the cheap rate during the day by 'creative' use of plugging the car in and adjusting the...

As per the post above, the fact that you can get up to an additional 6 Hours of 7p per KWh for the WHOLE HOUSE in addition to the 11:30pm to 5:30pm standard off peak by strategically plugging in your car outside of the off peak hours is a massive bonus for me with Octopus... :-) But, you do get...

Big thread with all the install details, wiring diagram and fuse box locations: https://www.macanevowners.com/forum/threads/dashcam-installation-issues-fuse-box-location.17100/

Hey, get the All Weather Mats... You won't regret it. I had to wait 7 months for mine when they were ordered with the car as there was a delay, but in that time, the carpet mats just got really dirty despite regular cleaning. Had them in my original ICE Macan so knew they would be a good idea...

v1.0.3 in the UK

Yeah, probably different in Europe...

Just use Waze, don't waste your money on a detector...

Thats a bit dissapointing... But I guess still progress. With Apple Maps or Google Maps on Android Auto, is it a similar experience?

Yep, working for me in the UK. Finally... and Amazing!

Sorry this took so long to get the photos and post, but here are some photos showing the camera install. Both in position and showing the cable into the OBD port etc. so no need for fuses etc. Parking mode works fine, uses voltage drop to know when the car is 'driving' and when turned off...

away at the moment but will share pics when back next week.

My Dash Cam from NextBase (IQ) plugs directly into the OBD port and works a treat both driving and in parking mode. No noticable battery drain even when car isnt used for multiple weeks and the dash cam is a 'connected' one so is constantly monitoring and sends me alerts if movement detected...

I’m using the Octopus Smart Charging and all my connectivity issues were resolved earlier this week following the App update which brought the Apple control centre control for preconditioning. might be worth making sure you’re up to date and then redoing your octopus control. Getting those...

Pretty certain a non IQ NextBase will need a fuse connection which is an issue locating unless can tap off pre-wiring. The IQ is the only one that’s plug and play via the ODB P

I have a NextBase IQ Front and Rear in my one and it was only £119 GBP for professional fitting. Plugs straight into the ODB port, all wiring hidden and works like a dream in an EV . Highly recommended and so much easier to use for remote video viewing compared with older NextBase cams.

Apparently it's paying homage to the 911 and is deliberately like this... Thats what my deal said when I complained I'm always scared I will damage the bodywork! Never owned a 911 so can't know for sure.

I want this upgrade! :cool:

What can you see on the screen though? You would be able to see the normal stuff, but stuff like games and YouTube you shouldnt once the vehicle is moving. At least I think thats what normally happens? Try starting a you tube video on the passenger side, then see if it continues to let you...

Unfortunately the Burmeister system FILLS the boot completely and there is no cable access to unplug without taking things apart. But, as if by magic tonight when getting in the car to drive home from work (the alarm had gone off three times during the day for no reason – Never done that...

No, I have the Burmeister but happy to try the same if easy. What should I do...? I think the sub takes up ALL of the under boot storage so much larger than the Bose one.
