Re: Engine Control Fault in MFD

It needs resetting. If you have to get the OPC to do it, do remove the tracker completely and keep quite about it. I fitted a trailing socket to the battery in my Macan to connect a trickle charger, but before I loosened the terminal bolts I used a small clamp to keep the battery terminals firmly co...

Re: 2023 Macan s vibration

Throttle is fly by wire.

Sounds like: - (1) out of balance wheel (2) fault on a wheel bearing (3) steering rack issuer

Re: First service add ons

Wheels off, shields removed, drains checked and cleared if necessary, shields refitted, wheels on.

One hours work maximum, zero materials cost.

Well somebody has to pay for these to give Porsche the cash to develop the utterly useless Vanity GT3 & GT4 et al cars.

Re: Wanted : Gen 1 Macan Turbo Performance

If you caanot find a Turbo PP you could always go with a standard Turbo and chip it.

OK so you would not get the same GTS suspension but in reality the standard suspension is more than good enough.

Or a GTS and chip that and you are near on the same power as a Turbo PP.

Surround Cam, IMO a Must Have Standard Cruise control is rubbish, include ACC is you use Cruise Control I would not now include a Pano, all it does is allow in light into a dark interior but if light seating is chosen ...
