Any Reports of MY26 Macans Exhibiting Similar Software Issues as MY24 and MY25 did?

[Paris92]

Just wondering if there are any software issues being reported in newly delivered MY26 Macans?

I am following the German Porsche Forum and there are also reports from Software Issues with MY2026. I'd say that it's similar to a fully updated MY24/MY25 with WSJ0 Q4.

Talked to my AD during my order process in march and according to him some software issues have been solved, but the newly added features for MY2026 (like keyless go) also brought new software problems.

Thankfully proven solutions exist for all Macan software & hardware problems:
1) Total solution: Do not order Macan = no software or hardware issues with the Macan guaranteed
2) Specific solutions: Problem with Air Suspension? Automatic Charge Ports? Innodrive? Digital Key Bose? etc. Uncheck item during order = no software or hardware issues with specific item guaranteed
All other solutions are a gamble. May work, may not.
MY2026 runs different hardware & software stack which just means different problems, in theory & in practice less problems but still problems none the less. Just look at gen 1 and gen 2 Taycans, gen 2 massively improved but still no trouble free experience.

My latest problem is every time I get in, and multiple times while I'm driving, it tells me I have negative tire pressure (-3). The fix is just to toggle tire sizes.

At this point, I may finally surrender and get the software updates and that new cargo cover (they also have to fix my dash tweeter, it was never flush on delivery). The dealer is over an hour away, so that's another reason I've been reluctant.

Mine has arrived at the UK port, hoping it will be trouble free like all my BMWs over the past 30 years (none of them EV/PHEV).

A negative # isn't a "negative tire pressure" reading but rather indicates the amount of change since the last reading (e.g. it thinks you've lost 3 PSI).

Apart from one glitch in PCM where the icons overlay… I’ve not experienced any other issue with my car. I had quite an extensive build with several technology options (Drive Assist, keyless, HUD, Remote 3D park etc). It’s two months old, just tipped over 2k miles.

And this icon overlay glitch was not fixed yet with an update?

Not that I’ve experienced and it seems like it’s been an issue since the first MY26 cars landed.

Interesting. I've had fluxuations before and it just shows the actual number and says it's lower. Now it no longer shows me the numbers just "--" and throws up negative numbers somtetimes.
