Glad to hear it works well in tight european spots. To be fair I don’t street park all that often - when I do I look for a spot that I think I can get into and the cars in front / back of me can get out of. If I need to park a distance away the walk is good for me. We also have a Kia Niro Ev...

you’re welcome - I buy a Porsche to drive it – not to be driven by it or in this case parked by it. I don’t even let 1/2 my cars shift their own gears :). To be fair I do like the ACC and lane centering when on the highway – even works well on twisty mountain roads - but what’s the point of...

It would be interesting to know how much of the skateboard is shared with the Macan - Porsche is all about iterating on what works vs clean sheet

the original issue was that the self parking put us too tight to the curb - It looked like it was touching from the overhead view but I assumed it was not as close as it looked and the car knew what is was doing. The manual warns that self parking can damage your wheel - check!

some of us humans are just flawed i guess

bingo - yes we do have rear wheel steering - I bet when my wife turned the wheel to the left lock the rear wheels turned into the curb. Would the self un-park be able to disable the rear wheel steering to prevent this or even aware that this particular car has that option?

I updated the iphone app and at startup it highlights new financial services features and the ability to export trips. The only thing I’ve noticed in the UI is that it shows the time it last checked the car’s status - before it just stated “up to date”. I’ve never found any way to check the...

Did you ever give the Audi part a try? The Porsche sensor is marked up 10x

We bought a CPO car with it as an option. I love the sound of an ICE engine and the AVAS is much better than our Kia but I see no reason to add fake sound to an EV. On the highway, it sounded like a tire was going out of round or cupped. If you enjoy video games perhaps you’d like it.

can someone recommend a US based site to get this printed?

These driving assistance systems have a long way to go before you can rely on them. It reminds me of the early days of ABS - until the bugs go worked out, many distrusted it and still pumped the brakes. Now everyone assume ABS etc will do its job far better than they can. Can you imagine...

The intent of the post was to warn others since these wheels are expensive to fix or replace and most people who spend time on car forums would rather learn about it here first. I benefited from the reading through all the early growing pains / bugs / fixes. Without forums like this and...

I think I’ll just skip it -Both my wife and I know how to parallel park - we were just playing with it and paid the price - personally I’ve never curbed a wheel. It was also very slow to find a spot to park in - it seemed to irritate people that drove up while it was trying. We had to cancel...

How do you tell it to unpark the car? No obvious that it can do that. There’s really no need to have less than an inch from a curb - a few inches of margin would make more sense.

We just used parallel self park for the first time. It executed the park but put the car so close my wife curbed the wheel pulling out since she had to back up a bit to clear the car it parked behind. She has a lot of experience parallel parking so I don’t fault her. When I was watch in the...

The issue was with the built in google-based NAV - Apple Maps via car play works fine. I wish there was a real Google Maps App for the PCM - I can run it via Carplay but it can’t put the map on the driver‘s display. I’ll like just stick with Apple Maps so I can have a consistent experience...

Just got a Macan EV. While navigating from NY to Boston, several time the nav would tell us to “exit” left (to stay on the interstate) when we pass a couple of exits on the right – didn’t happen all the time but enough that it was annoying. Never had this happen using google maps via carplay in...

yup didn’t notice Taycan only - looks like from 21+ - why wouldn’t they support this on their newest platform?? you can manually search and I can see the range on the dash. Maybe I can help by providing the software: if(apple maps routing) check range search for charging station < range

I read that apple maps can now communicate with the Macan to automatically add charging stops but I can’t seen to figure out how to make that linkage in the myPorsche app
