OK finally retrieved my car after 2 months at the dealership. First observation: fell in love all over again.....just grinning all the way home! The EV is such a significant upgrade to the ICE loaner.
Here's my understanding and this may be a little sketchy based on what the Service Advisor...
Yes same issue of being stuck in Park and Neutral, among other issues. No parts have been ordered to my knowledge. In my situation it seems to have been a compounding of faults starting with the November Fall-back time change which appears to have caused the underlying time zone to be out of...
Same here: 2025 Macan 4S delivered in February 2025. In shop for 1.5 months, no progress just trial and error tests with limited EV personnel. Supposedly CA lemon laws kick in if unfixable after 30 days. Have you looked into that or maybe a class action lawsuit would get a better response from...
2 thoughts:
1. Make sure that there isn't a charging schedule conflict between the Tesla wall connector and the car. Even if it's on the same schedule, the instruction should originate on one side only.
2. I've been using a Tesla wall connector with an adapter for a year and only recently...
Re: skip, try turning the lane departure option off. When activated, I occasionally felt a little drift in corners where the road was a bit uneven. I think that option responds to the unevenness.
Not sure if my issue is similar to any of yours. It's only happened 3 times and occurs when I'm starting out, moving slowly and slightly feathering the brakes, in either forward or reverse (e.g. backing out of a parking spot or inching forward to clear traffic from a side street). I'm thinking...
Sounds like there are multiple noise issues at play in this discussion. Not sure if my issue is similar to any of them. It's only happened 3 times and occurs when I'm starting out, moving slowly and slightly feathering the brakes, in either forward or reverse (e.g. backing out of a parking spot...
Speed can be subjective and somewhat deceptive based on power delivery and operating environment. As others have found, there is a lot more play in the Macan pedal than Tesla Y e.g. Also, the Macan's suspension and quieter interior can serve to insulate you to speed. I'm amazed at how many times...
Please no more trashing Dave, he's already relinquished his membership. It's done, it's over. He'll figure out what went wrong with his analysis and we don't need to keep punishing him. Wish there was a way to end this thread so newcomers don't keep regurgitating old news. Let's move on!
Hey hope you like Chinese food because the way things are going, they are catching and surpassing us in more ways. Just recent surprises were DeepSeek and Xiaomi's SU7 trouncing a Taycan Turbo GT, home and away..... with a non-professional driver! Before you start slinging mud about their...
Poor Dave! I think that a little family dynamics were in play here. Have you ever seen Kathy so quiet? Pardon the armchair analysis but I think Dave realizes Kathy got the better car (and more expensive and prestigious) so he's unconsciously trying to level the playing field. What automotive...
People won't change until the pain of not changing exceeds the pain of changing. Porsche purists resisted SUV's and auto transmissions. Mr Market (+ government and common sense) will ultimately decide. Some will go slowly into the night, kicking and screaming. Enjoy your ride for as long as you...
Wish I had been wiser about this but have learned for next time. I had been relying on the Configurator lease calculator, which I believed was accurate based on my specific build. Many hundreds of $ off. Dealer says "Oh, it's always off a 'few' hundred." So I went back with PFS buy rate and...
I'm getting my S next week and was quoted .0043 and residual of 56% on a 39 month/10K miles (or 65% for 24/10K). My Purchase price is $96K so not a lot of options. And my CR is over 800 but that doesn't seem to matter. What are others being quoted lately?
I'm supposed to pick up my S next week and they're quoting a MF of .0043 and a Residual of 56% on a 39 month/10K miles. The MF's I've seen in the Rennlist thread, while Porschesque, have been lower. I thought rates had been coming down. My S does not have a lot of options (Retail $96K before...
Great synopsis, thanks! I'm supposed to pick up my S next week and they're quoting a MF of .0043 and a Residual of 56% on a 39 month/10K miles. The MF's I've seen in the Rennlist thread, while Porschesque, have been lower. I thought rates had been coming down. My S does not have a lot of...
Same here, mine left Leipzig compound on 11/28 and isn't estimated to exit Emden port until 12/19. Why don't they do the updates in Emden while they're waiting to exit vs wasting additional time once they dock in the US? Must be that the US cars are incompatible with German wifi. :giggle:
