They were the ones who directed me to their own website to enter the VIN for compatibility verification. So logically, it should mean that it’s confirmed it will work? Otherwise, defeats the purpose of that VIN search feature.

At this point, I would hold off on the update until they figure it out. Only reason I did the update was because I was having software issues, and they thought the update would fix all my problems. But instead it caused more problems for me 😅

How about this one? https://pureflowair.com/products/2024-porsche-macan-cabin-air-filter-hepa-pc6071hx?_pos=1&_sid=1d707cd00&_ss=r&variant=46715438235808 If you go here and enter your Macan’s VIN, the same filter will pop up as a compatible filter. https://pureflowair.com/

Okay, I have confirmed that this cabin filter will work for the Macan electric. I used my VIN number to search for it on the PureFlow website.

I would still try to use departure timers to test if it’s a freak accident that it started charging again. At least you can still use your Level 1 charger to trick it if it starts failing again. So weird. I thought Porsche didn’t do OTA updates though. So is it possible they actually did that?

Thank you! It's a bit harder for Canadians to acquire cheaper parts. There doesn't seem to be a lot of online retailers for the cabin filters. I actually can't even seem to find sites that strictly says their filters are for the Macan Electric. I think they're all for the ICE Macan. Like I found...

Wow, they actually said that? that Porsche is not responsible for this problem? My mind is blown. Tell them to talk to dealerships in Chicago as well. I suppose this is what happens when Porsche HQ doesn't issue a bulletin notice to all dealerships to inform them of this issue. I feel like, it...

You're absolutely correct. I used the wrong word. But it's still a defect/quality issue with the material.

Ahh Thanks for the tip. I did a search for Taycan cabin filter and found these two links. https://www.taycanforum.com/forum/threads/how-to-replace-the-cabin-filter-in-your-taycan.19385/ https://rennlist.com/forums/taycan/1259681-2020-taycan-cabin-air-filter-change.html Could be similar to this...

That's very strange. Upon asking AI, it says it can withstand +158F to -40F. So there could be a defect in the rubber compound itself. If there is a defect in the rubber compound, even the sun's UV rays can affect it when exposed to the sun for an extended period, like at the dealer's lot. I...

That does not look normal to me. Was the car parked close to an area that generated a lot of heat next to the wiper? I don't believe the sun alone could that. If you touch the blade, does it feel solid or it's soft?

The photo of the knob is below the glove box, however it's one big panel so it's connected. I think to gain access to the cabin filter you have to remove all these knobs so the panel could come down. Not sure if you've looked at your own Macan to verify yet, but if I am wrong, please let me...

Personally, I don’t have a lot of experience with Tesla myself, and I would never buy Tesla. I just keep hearing so many good things from friends who own Teslas about their software and how fast and easy it is for them to patch software through OTA updates. And how insane they think it is that...

My dealership let me know today that Porsche Germany sent engineers to the US to investigate this matter. They didn’t say where in the US, but perhaps Chicago as there is a good chunk of us here that’s from Chicago. Hopefully something comes out from this trip.

I was wondering if anyone ever tried changing their Macan EV’s cabin filter and windshield wiper blades themselves. I looked below the dash in front of the passenger seat for the cabin filter, but I’m not sure how to remove these buttons? In the ICE Macans, they were knobs you can twist off, but...

I agree 100% that the vehicle is a pleasure to drive. And now that I have first hand experience, I can understand the saying "drives like a Porsche", or why ppl are loyal to the brand despite its shortcomings. However, if Porsche is charging this much for their vehicles, I think their customer...

Mine did not come with both adapters. They told me they banned the 120V plug due to fire hazards, so that’s why mine didn’t come with it.

They were telling me they needed to rule out external influences for a while. I had an electrician come to my home, I had my hydro provider come to my home and they installed a transformer to lower voltage coming into my home as well, and other cars are able to charge at my home as well. It's...

The Porsche mobile charger is 40amps I believe. Same with the Grizzl-E.

The reason for this is to prevent battery degradation. Keeping the car idle with a high SoC is typically not recommended. So this way it optimizes battery longevity. However, before I had charging problems, I noticed that my car actually didn't wait. It actually started charging and finished...
