  1. Does your Macan EV keep SoC stable when left idle for a week or longer?

    Did you have a situation when either after charging, or some idle time after a drive, SoC raises few %? I often see that when charging to 80%, SoC is 81% or even 82%, and yesterday I got an interesting situation. If I subtract consumption * distance driven from the starting SoC, I will get some...
  2. Does your Macan EV keep SoC stable when left idle for a week or longer?

    And not only with your Turbo. Vote shows 8 people losing 1% per day. With my 4S it is not so good. It had 65% at dealership, drive home, which is 65km, dropped SoC to 51%, while it showed 17kWh/100km consumption. It must have used 11kWh if consumption figures are correct. 65-11=54, this explains...
  3. Does your Macan EV keep SoC stable when left idle for a week or longer?

    Dealer just called, in 3 days car lost 1% of SoC. Already better than 1% per day, but still not 0%. Will pick up the car today and check myself.
  4. Does your Macan EV keep SoC stable when left idle for a week or longer?

    OK, dealer just called me and said that on Friday they had difficulty applying software update, but today they succeeded. Among the modules which received the update, there was a high-voltage battery, and the update wiped out all the parameters the car remembered about it. This raises the hope...
  5. Does your Macan EV keep SoC stable when left idle for a week or longer?

    With EV and scarcity of charging stations, you need to be confident that you will reach the next one. We were driving our Macan on a long trip, and at the first leg SoC was decreasing unbelievably slow (1% per 10km), then after 40% started falling down 1% per 2-3km. When plugged it at 40% on DC...
  6. Does your Macan EV keep SoC stable when left idle for a week or longer?

    My current theory is that it either tries to prepare the car for the daily departure, or preserves the battery. To confirm it, can you please answer two questions: 1. Do you have a daily departure configured on charging screen, or have you ever had one, even though now it is disabled or...
  7. Does your Macan EV keep SoC stable when left idle for a week or longer?

    And I would like to know what is wrong, but it does not seem to be possible, at least no case of having this problem and then resolving it is reported in this forum. Maybe you will be the first, then please share the solution. Regarding black screen - wife reported that she had it once, now car...
  8. Does your Macan EV keep SoC stable when left idle for a week or longer?

    Brought the car to the dealer, the service representative talked at length about the battery SoC, the car maintaining battery integrity, cited the manual, etc. They will do a software upgrade, but will not even contact the manufacturer about the SoC loss issues, and I have no way of making them...
  9. Does your Macan EV keep SoC stable when left idle for a week or longer?

    I'm not sure, dealer said update will take 2 hours. What is that big update supposed to change? I can tell after the update if it changed that.
  10. Does your Macan EV keep SoC stable when left idle for a week or longer?

    I did not think along those lines. You might be right. I remember seeing multiple times that it goes too far without dropping even 1%. Maybe now it recalibrated itself and compensated all those magically preserved %. Then it has really weak algorithms or estimating the SoC, other EVs (BMW...
  11. Does your Macan EV keep SoC stable when left idle for a week or longer?

    Some dealers would say SoC drop is OK, car needs its parts to be running. I was thinking along those lines - OK, this is Porsche. Let's consider Cayenne or Panamera, pure combustion non-hybrid version. They have almost the same multimedia system, minus EV-related stuff and plus engine and...
  12. Does your Macan EV keep SoC stable when left idle for a week or longer?

    Some people are having discharge when sitting idle issue, some are happy to report no discharge. Since I do have this problem, I want to gather some stats before talking to the dealer. Maybe I will find a solution which I'm happy to share here.
  13. Sudden Range Drop at 80% Charge in Macan 4S

    Nothing of the above, though as the car is in our private garage, it is not locked. But SoC loss was observed when it was locked in underground public garage, being underground, it could not have extreme temperature (though it was really hot outside).
  14. Sudden Range Drop at 80% Charge in Macan 4S

    OK, I see, thanks! Found a way to delete scheduled departure time - just swipe it right to left from the screen. Still car shows that it is charging (green lights everywhere) while display says charging session is complete. I'm paying so much attention to the charging because I believe those two...
  15. Sudden Range Drop at 80% Charge in Macan 4S

    I have shared my issue with local EV forum (not specific to Macan), and someone there suggested that EVSE issue (last part of my post 2 posts above in this thread) hints that car does not let EVSE go into sleep, draining some energy for its needs. I have a clamp meter, and made an experiment -...
  16. Sudden Range Drop at 80% Charge in Macan 4S

    I have a dealer appointment in two weeks, on the phone dealer also did not react as this is something out of ordinary. This is definitely not OK, BMW iX lost 0% during that period. Looks like the problem is rare, I saw people reporting 0% loss. OK, I will keep pushing, maybe mention a possible...
  17. Sudden Range Drop at 80% Charge in Macan 4S

    OK, I have been posting in this thread, and unfortunately now is the time to post again. We had to leave Macan EV 4S sitting for 19 days, and it lost 16% - from 61 to 45. Before, I had a problem with the car unable to reach programmed SoC (like you set it to 80%, and in the morning you get 76%)...
  18. Sudden Range Drop at 80% Charge in Macan 4S

    Try charging to 90% and leave it overnight at 90%.
  19. Is there really no adaptive regenerative braking?

    Yes, people in other groups say Taycan has it. I have it in BMW iX and find it great there, not sure about Taycan as I have never driven one, maybe it is tuned not as good as in BMW. I would like to have it in Macan, but alas...
  20. Is there really no adaptive regenerative braking?

    Thank you! Other cars (BMW, Mercedes) can apply regen brakes depnding on the traffic ahead of you. If you are approaching the car in front of you and distance is decreasing rapidly, it will brake for you. Nothing like this on Macan EV? I know it will brake when using cruise control, but BMW can...
