Other Porsche models have the gear selector in the centre and have plenty room for AC controls etc - 911, forthcoming 718 EV etc. Personally, I felt it misplaced in the Macan and Taycan (hidden from sight) and prefer it in the centre console.

I still don't think the dependency is anything other than the key fob. The car unlocks instantly and so no time to wake up a connection to the cloud to retrieve settings. Changing profile on the PCM would require it and there is a notable pause whilst that process executes.

Only available with air suspension which is an option on all model variants, standard on some or by region.

Inefficient due to poor cell connection probably.

To be honest I'm still skeptical as that would mean the feature wouldn't work if your optional Porsche Connect (provides cellular data service amongst other things) subscription had expired. It would also make it operate differently to other Porsche models. Owners manual makes no prerequisite...

Get your Porsche dealer to install - around £2K - pricey, I know! The car should already have the pre-installation ("Preparation for towbar system) in place. What's not clear if this includes the electrics - I assume so. Very few Macan's have the towbar factory fitted which is frustrating...

Not possible to set Comfort Entry other than the manner you describe. Single tap on 1, 2 or 3 with the driver's door open and the car powered off should work. If the door is closed and car is powered on then you must hold 1, 2 or 3 until all settings are retrieved. This should work for the...

With Comfort Entry, the car needs to load the driver profile associated with the key fob used. Historically and before the cloud and connected car shenanigans it was very much keyfob driven. My guess is that as the car also logs in with the Porsche ID associated with the fob it must first...

That is bizarre and there should be no correlation between the two. Charging to 100% for use on the same day is perfectly normal and acceptable. 12v disconnect is a tried and tested "fix" for Porsche EVs - notably the Taycan. Locking and leaving for several hours is another. The camera misread...

Rattles shouldn't really exist. Try another sample if you can to assure yourself of that. Go back to the preferred dealer and highlight your concerns if not done so already.

Launch mode gives you all available power - 360 PS (RWD) and 408 PS in the 4 which is more than just flooring it in Normal or Sport drive mode. Academic but there you go.

I had to correct your statement and with all due respect was incorrect for less familiar folk who may read this post. No difference in UK and RWD (new, unsold) are plentiful ergo pointless. The only positive is the materially better range. Lowers the entry point to the brand as per the ICE...

The base model is the Macan RWD (single motor) and not the 4 which has 2 motors. The standard drive mode selector using the wheel largely negates the need for SC to select drive modes where previously this didn't exist on the Taycan (for example) unless you had SC. The additional chassis and...

No power bump and more to do with additional chassis control - Sports Plus mode and PSM Sport. No PASM. 4S has PASM as standard on steel springs.

Height adjustment is normally due to speed only (or selected drive mode) and will automatically lower (and then raise) to be more efficient when the threshold is reached. Sounds like you have a couple of gremlins there.

Fan?

So what you need to do is to disable Manoevering Assist when reversing. Tap the icon with the traffic cone when Park Assist is active to temporarily disable - may be different on Macan but that's what I do on my 911.

What were the circumstances when the braking occurred?

Uncheck the box in the settings / car options and then save to key / memory.
