    Any clue how to reset ? Instrument cluster RED CIRCLE car status

    Lock car and leave for a couple of hours. Disconnect 12v battery to cold start all 12v systems (Taycan trick) of which this will be one. Pull the relevant fuse could be an option but no diagram available.

    US Porsche Magazine explores Scotland in a Macan Turbo

    The magazine is a worldwide publication - can be random who gets it or when. Four issues per year and requires a subscription but you may get it free as part of your Porsche purchase. NC500 is picturesque in the right weather but plagued with camper vans and boy racers at times. Some of the...

    Auto speed limiter fault

    That's the 'Resume' function i.e. accept the change in speed limit (see the image I posted above). Great use case!

    Auto speed limiter fault

    Fair enough but it isn't a new issue / problem gone undetected as has been mentioned some posts back here and on the Taycan forum. You've asked a question and we've tried to apply some logic and rationale to what you're experiencing but if you aren't willing to drill down further then so be it...

    Auto speed limiter fault

    When driving without any assistance feature enabled what road sign speed is displayed in the left most tube of the main dashboard - does it change from 70 to 30 when at precisely the same location? Is there a slip road / local access road / housing adjacent to the exact location where the limit...

    Auto speed limiter fault

    It will never do this on a motorway unless you are speeding in contraflow, roadworks etc and the temporary limit exceeded. Please don't fabricate improbable scenarios and do not be naive enough to ignore usage guidelines. Note also that these systems are reliant also on various 3rd party data...

    Auto speed limiter fault

    Active Speed Limit Assist is not an extra and is standard on all Macan EVs (can't confirm if from 2024 or only from MY 2026 (late 2025 onwards)). When activated and the car powered off then on again the system default is a passive mode (greyed out) and available should you wish to invoke. This...

    Auto speed limiter fault

    The caveat on all assistance systems is written in the Owner’s Guide and elsewhere - operating conditions. Road signage and road markings in UK are poor. If there is temporary signage active and not properly in place then no system can make the correct assessment - ultimate control wrests...

    Auto speed limiter fault

    Sane story on all Porsches with this feature and has been so for many years. I experienced it on my first Taycan in 2021. Relies on accurate mapping and signage data which in UK can be a lottery. Road works are a particular challenge if there is no end of a speed restriction detected. Not a...

    Turbo Logo Missing on Center Dashboard

    I had a look on the Porsche Approved site for older model years and none have the model variant script displayed other than MY26.

    Wondering about the GTS Suspension.

    I have to disagree re comment on Taycan GTS. I had a GTS ST 21" + Pirelli for two years and was the most sublime daily driver and superior in ride to the 4S I had prior on 20" + Michelin.

    25 Macan 4S Quirk help

    Not sure - try the usual tricks such as reinstall the app, check that the car has a good cell connection, be patient and in time it might resolve itself Check your phone settings for Android Auto (also read this thread...

    Wondering about the GTS Suspension.

    That should be expected - it's a GTS - typically part of the DNA along with 10mm lower ride height regardless of Porsche model chosen. The air suspension is described as having a Sports tune in the configurator so clearly different to regular air setup on other variants and therefore no...

    Wondering about the GTS Suspension.

    22" rims I bet which is the likely problem as pretty much all UK cars since Feb have had these fitted. The standard rim size will be the sweet spot and the reviews I've read have been complimentary. Overall the GTS has a sports tuned air suspension set up. On the Taycan I went from a 4S to a...

    Macan 4 - Black with the best performance for the cheapest price

    What we don't know is the budget but I suspect it's ÂŁ80K hence the focus.

    Macan 4 - Black with the best performance for the cheapest price

    20" don't look great but saves pennies. Sport Design (SD) package is a big price option and I'm not sure you should divert the budget towards it. Accent package in standard colour would work better given the dark interior. I guess you don't like sunroofs, if only for light? Drop SD, add 21"...

    That's actually good advice all things considered.

    Anyone getting more than 2.8m/kwh on the Macan GTS EV?

    Take care with reading forum responses and quoted range as many are for non-GTS models (despite being specific in the thread title) and therefore not comparative. Best recuperation is when braking rather then overrun recuperation (recuperation on auto / on and lifting off the throttle)...

    Anyone getting more than 2.8m/kwh on the Macan GTS EV?

    The primary main differentiator will be the wheel rim size and tyre selection on these cars. The options list won't all materially impact actual range but bear in mind options such as a towbar will have a bearing but most other things not. Noise Insulated glass is actually lighter (around 2kg) -...
