    The Ambiguously Grey Turbo

    The Dolomite Silver or GT Silver are classic Porsche colours and my favourite. The GT Silver is not offered on all models but the Domomite Silver usually is part of the no-cost palette on the configurator. The car looks clean even when not...and when the sun shines, the shades are incredible...

    The Ambiguously Grey Turbo

    Hello Reno, Here in Montreal, Canada, which is part of the province of Quebec, the law requires all passenger vehicles to change to winter rated tires between 1st Dec to 15 March. This perennial tire swapping causes excessive tire and rim wear & tear and major headaches when most drivers wait...

    The Ambiguously Grey Turbo

    I ordered my Turbo one year ago when it was a launch model with very few deliveries in Canada. The day I drove out of the dealership, my spouse said she could not see what kind of vehicle I was driving as she followed me back home. The black on black is almost a "DELETE". The light strip in...

    The Ambiguously Grey Turbo

    I have a very similar interior setup as yours including the Burmeister. The addition of the Glacier Blue lettering on the rear hatch was a good choice as the Turbo comes with black lettering that blend into the piano black trim and become invisible. I ended up buying the blue lettering and...

    HEATED STEERING WHEEL - 2025 TURBO

    Good idea 🤔, I have a laser thermometer. I will check out this morning and post a picture of my results.

    HEATED STEERING WHEEL - 2025 TURBO

    Good to know guys, thanks. I spoke with my dealer and will compare mine to other EV's next time I am there. I think the power output may in fact be correlated with the OAT.

    HEATED STEERING WHEEL - 2025 TURBO

    I find that my heated steering wheel temperature feel is not nearly warm enough. I operate the vehicle with the cabin temperature around 22 C, so I am not sure if this is preventing the steering wheel from warming up to a higher temperature. My 2025 Volvo XC40 Recharge has three temperature...

    Macan Turbo EV - home made spare wheel kit?

    I purchased the 7000TL bundle for lifting capacity. EV's are really heavy with empty weights hovering just over 5000 lbs. The 5000TL is limited to 5000lbs. I did not want to risk the vehicle falling on top of me. I also own a 2023 Volvo XC40 Recharge (EV) and after doing the measurements...

    Extended Leather: which panel exactly is in leather?

    The Club leather interior is by default "extended" with higher quality smooth leather. In the Macan Turbo's case, it is also limited to a single colour which is entirely in Truffle brown including the stitching colour minus the steering wheel which is black. If you want to change the stitching...

    Is chrono plus really necessary on the Turbo?

    So how does one control the battery temperature with the Sport Chrono package? Sport Plus mode with performance-oriented chassis tuning, Porsche Active Aerodynamics (PAA) and temperature control of the battery Track Endurance Mode: preconditioning of the battery for improved performance on...

    Extended Leather: which panel exactly is in leather?

    I got as much leather as I could in Club leather truffle Brown including back of the seats, seat consoles, center console. I even added the decorative stitching option. I messed up the fixed luggage compartment cover because I thought the Turbo model cover would come default in Race-tex like the...

    Custom Painted Key Fobs - anyone received?

    I got mine in leather covering. They are a great party trick but the thin leather is easily damaged.

    Seat Belt Retainer Clip - Front & Rear

    My dealer ordered me a "Porsche" clip for the driver's side off of a 911 model. I installed it on the driver's side belt and it works well to keep the belt buckle from falling to the bottom.

    Accidentally Jamming Powered Charge Port Door and a Fix

    Dealer told me that if the charging flap for DC charging breaks off, a replacement requires removing the entire charging plug.

    Battery preconditioning when setting destination charging via Porsche navigation

    According to Kyle from Out of Specs, if you turn off the Porsche Charging Planner (Settings>Charging Settings>Porsche Charging Planner>toggle button to OFF) the battery will not be preconditioned and you won't "burn more juice" to quote Kyle.

    Change rear "PORSCHE" lettering to black from Glacier Blue

    I picked up a set of Glacier Blue "PORSCHE" letters ordered from Germany by my dealer. There is a pretty good video of a Porsche Macan (ICE) emblem removal and installation on YouTube. I am not sure if I am allowed to post the link here. 🤔 I have 3M adhesive remover and my only concern is the...

    Macan Turbo EV - home made spare wheel kit?

    I followed krissrock's lead and ordered four Porsche Macan EV Electric Jack Socket Pad Adapters that are custom made and a definite perfect fit. As Fun TC Driving already mentioned, they are so perfect in shape that they stay in place when inserted into the jacking slots. This makes my life a...

    Macan Turbo EV - home made spare wheel kit?

    FWIW, my Porsche dealer does not even use any adapters to raise the Macan EV. I find that very concerning considering that the Macan EV lifting points are not flat and even surfaces. Lifting the EV without adapters concentrates the 5,341/4=1,335 lbs onto a much smaller area than what was...

    COOLED SMARTPHONE TRAY

    After a 1200-km trip with my Turbo, we noticed that the supposed airvent that blows cool air on your phone to prevent it from heating up too much while charging on the wireless pad did not do a good job at all. The iPhone 14 was very hot, almost 2023 TAYCAN GTS hot. The only difference was that...

    Change rear "PORSCHE" lettering to black from Glacier Blue

    I don't know how to link another thread but have a look at the thread titled: Porsche Taillight/Light Strip Lettering: 4Color Options I posted some information about this subject on that thread. I don't want to duplicate too much info (I am worried another Forum member might get upset 🙃.) The...
