  1. Going in For Recall Service - any thoughts?

    I said its not a recall as they are Safety Recalls - in the UK there is only one Safety Recall and that effected just 18 cars with an Airbag issue - https://www.check-vehicle-recalls.service.gov.uk/recall-type/vehicle/make/PORSCHE/model/Macan%20Electric/year/2025/recalls Good luck with the...
  2. Dealer versus insurer versus DVLA

    The Porsche Vodafone tracker is a dealer option not factory. You pay the dealer to supply & fit and then Vodafone for the annual subscription.
  3. Going in For Recall Service - any thoughts?

    In the UK those ā€˜issues’ are not a recall - since the software upgrade I have noticed no improvements but now have the ā€˜battery balancing issue’ and random range showing.
  4. Dealer versus insurer versus DVLA

    If you want a tracker fitted Porsche (UK) will say using a non-Porsche (aka Vodafone) tracker your warranty MAY be void for electrical issues. I didn’t want to risk that, so went with a dealer fitted Vodafone. My insurer (Admiral) didn’t make it mandatory but I went with one anyway as I have had...
  5. Cold mountain climate owners: how necessary is your heated windshield or rear wiper if you have them?

    There is a thread on here about heated windscreen from owners that have it. Some have found it as unnecessary - as MatC21 says preheating means it is not really necessary for the initial drive away. During the drive, apparently it is unnecessary as to switch it on you have to put the ā€˜max’...
  6. Unable to close boot

    Same issue with the boot not fully closing happened today. I manually closed it and it shut and the warning was turned off. It’s going in for the battery balance issue in mid April and they’ll hopefully fully resolve the boot soft close’.
  7. Dealer versus insurer versus DVLA

    The selection was fairly limited. As the reg has to have the initial region letters and the number is the year it doesn’t leave much choice.

  10. TRIP STATUS- and range issues

    That’s exactly one of my issues.
  11. TRIP STATUS- and range issues

    I have my car booked in - many thanks I’ve forwarded the document. My forecast range in the Sat nav went really awry - initially using far too much % then on the return forecast a greater % at arrival than was showing whilst driving. I then charged to 100% to see if that improved things and the...
  12. Macan 4 servicing in UK - why is the dealer hounding me.......?

    I realise you get great enjoyment from policing posts from certain EV owners on here (as opposed to non-owners). I just said that the Porsche dealer service receptionist said it was a mistake in the marketing software and she told me they recommend a service call for ICE Macan’s at 1 year old.
  13. Macan 4 servicing in UK - why is the dealer hounding me.......?

    I received an email saying my car was coming up to 1 year old and book a service. Called service and they apologised and thought the automated email system couldn’t differentiate between an EV and ICE ! I believe the ICE are 10k or 1 year.

  15. Are model year 2026 Macan EVs problem-free?

    My 2025 developed this last Saturday. It was a systems /software issue rather than a mechanical one.
  16. Unable to close boot

    I had a similar problem. The boot would close but not the final ā€˜soft close’. I could only drive with the warning buzzer. It was Saturday, so I took it to the dealers not expecting anyone available but yet again Colchester provided an excellent service. The technician did all the checks I had...
  17. Macan Turbo EV – Sport Plus vs Normal… turns out it was Just Regen?

    Apologies for asking a basic question - was the heating on or totally off on all runs.
  18. Macan EV availability UK - new stock

    I agree - I couldn't live with iPad looking screen - looks like an afterthought.
