I’ve had this happen twice in the past year and I have avoided getting the latest update so I don’t think it’s necessarily related to the update. I think it might have been related to Apple CarPlay and the Macan internal WiFi not connecting properly but that’s just speculation. Either way, I...
Saw pretty much all of the video. I guess I’ll have to try the GTS and push it hard since my experience with the 4S has not been anywhere near as ‘twitchy’ on the steering and curves as he seems to claim. I have to admit, I have not taken it on the track nor on twisty mountain roads at very...
Given that I am not seeing any major issues (just minor periodic 'white' ADAS failures mostly due to slop on the sensors from road grit and snow), I am holding off on the update as well. I figure if it works, don't 'fix' it.. Once they've figured this out or if I have to go into the dealer...
Yeah.. so it's really been cold for the last 2 months where I live. -15 C to less than 0 C (about 5F to 29 F). It's clear that I am getting no more than about 210 to, at most 230 Miles per full charge. During the late spring, summer, I was getting just over 300. Last winter was nowhere...
Completely agree on all the points and firmware issues. Great to see all of the actual detail. Thanks for that. Unfortunately that puts them way behind (newer) so called 'zonal' architectures popular in new versions of EV's coming from BMW and Volvo/Geeli. Innovated by the likes of Tesla...
I agree with Ron_b's assessment. It's not my first Porsche but it is my first EV. The overall pricing is the only thing you can quibble with and that's what most reviewers can't seem to get over in reviews. My Macan S was very expensive at the time I bought it (2017) configured the way I...
Unfortunately, I suffered through it and agree with most if not all of the comments posted here. Clearly they had something bothering them about the brand or the car probably driven by the price. I love the ‘null set’ comment since that‘s my perspective as well. I’ve mentioned in other...
Not sure I'd agree. They definitely are behind in both software and hardware architecture .. and, more importantly, the marriage of the two. I am sorely disappointed in the inability of the car to do OTA updates. That, however, does not take away from the pure enjoyment of driving the car...
If you believe the specs and the initial experiences then they have really leapfrogged where they were prior to this car. I really like where they ended up with the 'zonal' architecture. I believe that's one key place which will enable them to potentially outdistance Porsche (especially with...
I had a Macan ICE S for almost 7 years (a 911 4S Cab before that). I've had my 4S EV now for over 11 months. I loved the ICE S at the time. I wouldn't switch back now if you paid me. I loved the 911 also but it was so impractical I had to buy another car for everyday driving. The 4S...
Maybe that's why they just switched CEO's .. Hopefully they don't go to the other extreme and try to ditch EV's and go back to just ICE cars. From what I can tell, the EV shift is not their real issue. The real issue seems to lie in the implosion of the China market and the fear of Tariffs...
I'm in the same boat. Asked for it immediately when I got the email... and I'm still waiting. Basically, I've given up and just got the Lectron 'version'. It was on sale after I got the reverse one for my son who has a Kia EV6 with a NACS plug.
Sorry to hear. I did it at a WaWa with level 3 chargers and the charge rate was not great but it did work. I would try somewhere else and make sure you activate the charging stall on the app first.
I had the same problem. I unplugged, restarted the process and activated the stall on the Tesla app first. Once I activated and THEN plugged in, it worked. Not sure if you tried that but if you didn't, try that sequence and that worked for me.
Thanks. That seems to have worked (I did a combination of all).. . Now the login issue seems to have been fixed but the data comes out but in km (metric) instead of miles even though my iphone app is still correctly set to US/UK standards. Bizarre.. Anyone know how to get that fixed? I...
Not sure what's happening or if it's due to upgrading to IOS 26 but the watch version of the Porsche app is now making me re-login every single time I try to open it. Given that I have to use my phone to do that, it makes the watch app basically useless to check or modify anything. Once I...
I didn't get that impression at all from reading multiple stories. I do get the sense that they have definitely gotten cold feet on the declared goals of going all EV in the near future. However, given what the Chinese are doing and how quickly they are moving on all fronts - batteries...
