    Route at the introduction of the Macan

    Perfect! Thanks, that is the road. And even with the coördinates. Super Joseph 👍🏻

    Route at the introduction of the Macan

    For a holiday in the south of France I am looking for the route that the demo Macans drove in the south of France at their introduction. Seeing the reviews, it’s an amazing route to drive. I have emailed Porsche customer service, but they cannot help me further. They write: “We understand your...

    Front hood opening on its own!

    Nope, not an option in a Porsche. Just the possibility to open and close the windows with the key, by pressing the opening button for several seconds. Closing with a rain sensor? I should have bought a Mercedes Benz, like Janis Joplin already sung long ago…

    Front hood opening on its own!

    Could be worse. When I got to my car yesterday, all the windows were down. In addition, the sunroof was slightly ajar. This combination is not possible with a key that makes contact. That was not the case, the key was in a safe place. I have also had the problem with the windows twice with my...

    Front (air) suspension cracking sound over speed bumps

    That is a very comprehensive and well thought out response Jacen. I understand that you have a lot of relevant knowledge. I'm curious whether your persistence will lead to an adequate answer from Stuttgart. Thanks and keep me informed.

    Front (air) suspension cracking sound over speed bumps

    Very strange that the garage of CE in Malaysia says that it is part of the "characteristic" of the Macan, while Tomek's garage has a different message: Stuttgart knows the cause but does not solve it for all cars. That can only mean one thing. Porsche again chooses to let us early adopters...

    Front (air) suspension cracking sound over speed bumps

    Strange and unacceptable. What is the reason that the problem will not be solved for all cars? Too expensive? Too much effort? Is there any further explanation about the cause? I will not accept selective repairs. My dealer doesn't know anything yet, your dealer has more information. Can you...

    Center cap scratches

    My dealer will replace them under warranty.

    Michelin Pilot Sport EV harsh ride

    I started a threath about this. Goodyear is the best choise, according to the labels from Porsche. I can confirm this, I switched my Bridgestones for Goodyears. https://www.macanevowners.com/forum/threads/what-factory-tires-are-on-your-macan-ev-satisfied-with-them.17224/

    Front (air) suspension cracking sound over speed bumps

    That's disappointing. So what the mechanic commented at the time about a new bulletin from Porsche was not correct. Your dealer's answer "It’s expected behavior” is very similar to my "It's within tolerances" with my Taycan at the time. There was no solution there either. Now I hear that there...

    Center cap scratches

    Same here, on two centre caps. Mailed my dealer.

    Front (air) suspension cracking sound over speed bumps

    Ok, Thanks Chris. My wife recorded the sound in the back of the car and I did send it to my dealer. I tried to attach it here, but the file is too big. As is the problem… Can only be send as a Mail Drop.

    Front (air) suspension cracking sound over speed bumps

    Let’s hope so Tomek. My previous experiences with Porsche problems make me less optimistic. But you are right, especially now that Porsche is not doing so well, they have to be extra careful with their reputation. Do you also have a ticking noise in the back of your car when you drive over...

    Front (air) suspension cracking sound over speed bumps

    Looks familiar to me. A few years ago I had a humming noise at certain speeds on my Taycan. Also measurements and forwarded to Stuttgart, but "it is within tolerances". So no solution. This problem also occurred more often with other Taycans, but Porsche refused to take responsibility. It won't...

    Front (air) suspension cracking sound over speed bumps

    Thank you for your message. It was indeed obvious that it was in the suspension. But good to know that the sound disappeared when PASM was turned off. Now for a solution... PASM would feature a new two-valve technology. I hope that technology is sufficiently developed and that we are not, like I...

    Front (air) suspension cracking sound over speed bumps

    Hello Tomek, I just received an email from my dealer. They couldn't find a single recent message about the suspension cracking sound when driving over speed bumps. I previously sent them # 2432 of October 18, 2024. They asked me if you could recieve the new bulletin number from your dealer when...

    Front (air) suspension cracking sound over speed bumps

    We know, indeed on page 1 of this thread byebye named this tech note (nov. 21, 2024). I mailed it to my dealer at that time, but it didn’t solve the problem. See my message in this thread March 22 2025. Tomek writes about a bulletin named by the service guy from “just a week ago”, so I assume...

    Front (air) suspension cracking sound over speed bumps

    Thanks Tomek, I’ll send an e-mail to my dealer if they are aware of this bulletin. Greetings from Ben.

    Sat Nav UK - always uses minor roads / lanes !

    Very recognizable and I also had this problem when I recently spent three weeks in England. It drove my wife crazy because every time the navigation led us to super narrow roads. With high hedges of course to make it even more confusing. And so narrow that you hope not to encounter anyone. But...

    Sunroof Shade

    The heat may be uncomfortable, but I think the UV radiation is a bigger problem. It is simply unhealthy. That's why I asked my dealer whether and how much UV is blocked. He just received the answer from Porsche Germany. “The UV transmission for the H2 panoramaroof is <4% and light transmission...
