Jack to fit 2016 Macan S

I have finally got my new space-saver tyre installed in the boot. Have the foam surround, but now need the jack. Before I approach Porsche for a new one, can anyone confirm that its needs to be specific to the model? The ones I have seen online for Cayenne and Macan all 'look' the same but with diff...

Has anyone fitted SatNav GPS unit themselves?

Hi
I was wondering how hard it is to fit the satnav GPS unit to a 2017 Macan?
Anyone done it themselves?

Normally GPS units are extremely simple devices and I bet there is easy cabling? Anyone tried it?

Thanks

Re: Definitive list of suitable spares for Macan 18"

Need to consider hub size too. I believe it is 66.6mm My Audi RS4 B8 variant had 5 x 112 wheels with 66.6mm hubs Also, and I found this hard to get my head around but bigger offset pushes the wheels further IN to the bodywork. Offset is the distance from the imaginary centre line of the wheel to th...

Confused on PCM upgrade options/choices

Hi, I have recently taken delivery of a 2016 Macan 3.0D S As far as I can tell it has the 'standard' PCM without any Sat Nav etc. What I would like to know is what options I have to upgrade to any Satnav and/or CarPlay?
