    My 2024 Macan EV Never Seems to DC Fast Charge at its Potential

    In the Sacramento area have only once seen a 120 number. The slower the charge the better it is for long term battery health. So there's that. EV distance long travel takes longer. Expecting it not to is a pipe dream.

    PCM Blackout

    You might want to ask your service rep? When the PCM went out the turn signals also were inoperative (until reboot). On interstate 80 w/ lots of traffic that was no dang good. Porsche Sacramento service department is first rate. They determined that there was a bad chip in the PCM. If your...

    Bose sound system not quite up to snuff?

    The doors say BOSE. I can’t recall if Bose was added on but this car was specked and ordered for us with some upgrades. Rear wiper too. Woah daddy oh. When not in a car, I enjoy music a listening room but I know that’s a very unfair comparison. But in the car audio realm I have experienced...

    PCM Blackout

    Drumroll. Got the PCM replaced as the one in vehicle was a turkey. Had a loner MecanEV for three weeks.

    Bose sound system not quite up to snuff?

    I'm not that impressed w/ the stock Bose either. But there are many other factors inpacting what one hears, like road noise, audio source (XM is poor), bluetooth, your hearing, etcetera. I do like the Mecan EV and that's what matters.

    Bose sound system not quite up to snuff?

    I'm what is commonly known as an "audiophile." Gasp. The Bose stuff is no great shakes but background noise from the road, wind, your aging hearing, bluetooth signal path and the audio source factor into the sound's output. The audio source is a biggie, likely the biggie followed by the...

    PCM Blackout

    Thank goodness my service department is a good one. Car will go back but it’s not alone as they have several other customers…….y’all can guess the rest.

    PCM Blackout

    Alas PCM screen blacked out again today (car play on…aleays is) and turn signals were inoperative. Re-booted itself twice in a row. Traffic was dense and a nedded lane change missed. Getting a bit frustrated. Back it will go to shop. Less thsn 1400 miles on the clock. Don’t have any proof but...

    Article: Macan 4S vs. Taycan 4 Cross Turismo compared: Which is the Better Electric Car? [Downtown Magazine]

    Having now had both, the Taycan is a sports car (with sports car foibles). That's all you need to know. The drive, road handling is world class.

    PCM Blackout

    Wow.. A ten minute black out. With my other EV (and past ones) over the air updates always had a notice ahead of time and required car not to be in use. I'm thinking that's not the culprit. Not that a sample group of two means much but I wonder if it's car play related, switching cell related...

    PCM Blackout

    Has anyone else has this happen? Last week and this week the PCM went black while driving. Four times so far. It's a Macan 4 Electric not that should matter. Apple car play in use. Using the volume knob the PCM was reset after the second and third times. During the fourth blackout the turn...

    In US- bought now before tariff

    Given what the new leader of Germany called our current President, I would think a tariff will be forthcoming. Mecans are not selling well and "incentives" are sure to come. And no wonder they are not selling...$7500 Kia Customer Cash is being offered making the price less than have of a Mecan...

    Macan 4 now or 4S in 5 months?

    Just got the 4. Came out of a Taycan Cross 4S. The Macan4 is pokey compared to the Cross 4S and that's why I got the 4 as I was going to get arrested for driving like I stole it. Fast cars go fast. Sports cars go fast. ( I had to stop. ) Read as get the 4S or GTS.

    No Drill front license plate holder UPDATED WITH INSTALL and ORDER info

    STO N SHO works well and is easy enough. However it's best to remove plate if at a car wash. As in it may well get bent. Had one on a Taycan and that's how I know.
