Pick your feet up and lift OVER them rather than dragging a foot across them. This really is the only and best way. Due to the sill plates being brushed the finish is actually pretty resistant to damage compared to the highly polished sill plates in many vehicles.
Cabin filter is certainly a DIY item. If you have the means and knowledge to get the vehicle in the air and pull wheels off the brake fluid change is also a reasonable DIY project (you can make it happen easily with a Motive Power Bleeder). When the wheels are off it's a great time to detail...
I think Porsche was a bit "under pressure" to get into the market with the Macan EV since it had already been delayed several years (2 at least). My wife and I had a 2018 Macan ICE that we loved - I wanted the Macan EV which I think was initially supposed to be marketed as a 2021 or 2022...
All good manufacturers will continue to refine a vehicle based on what has been learned from prior models. It can seem a bit disappointing when you see improvements after only a few years but it's just how the system works - when developing a new vehicle a relatively limited number of test...
Have to agree with comment to NOT use autowash and do it yourself. Car wash will eventually kill paint. Brushes/pads abrade paint. Brushless car wash? They use harsh chemicals to clean. It's all in how you want your vehicle to look - if you can live with a 20 footer thn do whatever you...
A quality ceramic coating is ALWAYS a great idea - the downside is the cost that most vendors ask to provide it. There is an alternative - do it yourself. It isn't that difficult - especially on a new vehicle since the paint prep steps should be minimized. You'll likely spend close to a day...
One last comment - some of the hardest vehicles to obtain collision repair parts for are fairly new vehicles that are still currently in production. Inventory goes to production of new vehicles - collision repair is a secondary concern.
Not sure I'd call that minor damage - the fender ("wing") is displaced upward meaning that whatever it is fastened to is damaged / displaced. The surface appearance in damage like this rarely declares the totality of the damage. If the fender tagged the hood then that will also need paint...
The first factory scheduled service is at 2 years and then every 2 years after that - not 1 year. So did you really get anything extra regarding service??
1. A 2024/2025 CPO vehicle may have anywhere from a few hundred miles up to 10s of thousands of miles and everything in between. CPO means Certifed Pre-Owned - so the vehicle will have to pass certain conditions regarding condition, maintenance, etc to earn that designation. They are...
You really need to sit in them to decide. As noted previously - unless you are "trim" you may find the 18 way seats constricting and actually uncomfortable. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the 14 way seats - if I had to order a seat without ever sitting in them I would get the 14 way...
My one piece of advice is to take all of the charging speed and range marketing with a grain of salt. This is not only for the Macan but ANY EV. I live in a climate where the summer temps easily hit 100 F and the winter temps (straight temp, not wind chill) typically hit 10-15 below F. At the...
