    Navigation is confused, very bad

    Do the built-in navigation system, My Porsche app and any of the navigation apps on your smartphone agree on the location?

    Navigation is confused, very bad

    Try rebooting the PCM by holding down the volume knob until the infotainment display goes dark. Can be done safely even while driving.

    The recall wasn't due to aiming the headlights too high -- it was that for being brighter than allowed in the US, the headlights used European brightness settings.

    Coding Options

    Let’s not forget that the reason the Macan ICE was discontinued in Europe is that the platform doesn’t meet the cybersecurity regulations and could not be updated to support the encryption standard required by it, making it illegal to offer the vehicle for sale. The PPE platform on the other...

    There are a number of vehicles available in the US that have Adaptive Driving Beam headlights. It’s quite possible to meet the timing requirements.

    Electric Range

    Max Heat uses resistive heating instead of the heat pump so you should avoid using that if range is an important consideration for the trip. Instead set the desired cabin temperature and turn the AC to ON in AUTO mode, with the seated heats and steering wheel heating on for a few minutes until...

    January 2026 Consumption Stats

    Many of my trips are short and in town where speeds are low and include lots of stop and go. There I routinely see more than 4.0 mi/kWh.

    Self-parking curb rash

    I'm aware of that, it's a standard disclaimer. But the car did not cause the damage.

    Electric Sport Sound - equip it or not?

    Both Electric Sport Sound and the standard AVAS sound have to meet a minimum volume requirement. Electric Sport Sound may sound different, but I doubt it is substantially louder (if at all).

    Knocking Sound from Suspension when go over Speed Bumps

    https://www.macanevowners.com/forum/threads/front-air-suspension-cracking-sound-over-speed-bumps.17162/ Having said that, I haven't experienced that issue. It doesn't seem to affect all vehicles/configurations.

    Self-parking curb rash

    All I'm saying is that the self parking function doesn't have some secret sauce that makes it turn off rear axle steering. And the RAS steering angle is a maximum of five degrees, unless you're practically right against the curb that isn't going to result in contact (and remember that the car...

    Self-parking curb rash

    The self parking function is aware of the rear wheel steering, it shows the vehicle trajectory in blue in the camera view and uses it if available both to get in and out of a parallel parking spot. I think the concern about RWS causing this is exaggerated. If the car can get in and out of the...

    2026 Software Update via Dealer - What does it do exactly?

    I wish they could do significant updates OTA, but I'm also cognizant of the fact that virtually every other manufacturer that does that has at some point bricked vehicles by doing it, leaving them undriveable at owner's homes or on the road while traveling.

    [Victory] - let's chalk up a "win" for once…North American Supercharger access

    I believe you get two years of free charging on Electrify Canada though while the US gets one year. And even that is gone for 2026…

    Power Steering Plus - anyone optioned

    That is incorrect. The Macan GTS comes standard with Power Steering Plus. https://configurator.porsche.com/en-US/mode/model/XABDE1/specifications?tab=standard-equipment
