If spec'd during configuration a collapsible spare wheel kit costs circa £160, if purchased after it's £550, explain that one. Porsche's excuse for the huge difference in price is shipping and storage costs, yeah really..... That is the wise move. As I will keep suggesting, configure with a Spare a...

All stop/start functions should have the option in settings to switch off stop/start permanently. With my Audi's the art with start/stop was to come to a halt and reduce pressure on the break peddle before stop/start kicked in which overrode the auto stop function whist still applying the brakes. I'...

I'm not sure about BMW but my Audi's and Merc's came with 3 years connect services whereas with my Macan, Porsche Car Connect is only free for a year and Car connect 2 years, thereafter they're charged services. This is just one more example of Porsche draining every penny they can from Porsche owne...

hum, that's not great reading. Perhaps my wife has the right idea staying with BMW, or is it just that we only read negative things as people in general do not tend to write praise? Ian Hi Ian, you'll receive good and bad feedback on owner experiences, mostly good, most of the points I've highlight...

I purchased a Macan 3 months ago at which point I was new to Porsche after years with Audi and Mercedes. I love the Macan look, it rides better than my previous SQ5 but not as nice as the GLC AMG Line Premium Plus I owned. To say I'm alarmed at having to have the transfer box replaced under warranty...

I agree it must be tied in with GPS/SatNav so no influence from local magnetic fields....

Mine reads 14 volts all the time I'm driving it. It's my understanding that to maintain a 12 volt lead acid battery at full capacity it should be charged at a minimum of 13.8 volts therefore charging at 13 volts won't maintain full capacity amp/hour rating. The knock on affect would be shorter batte...

How accurate is a compass inside a car given it relies on sensing a weak magnetic field that will be influenced by other magnetic fields inside a car like speakers and those generated by electromotive forces eg relay operation and current flow. In addition to these issues the compass will sit inside...

I’m paying approx £750 with NFU for a Macan and 911. £637 for one Macan seems a lot to me 🤔. I queried the price with NFU who informed me the calculation is automatic based on data entered, I suspect my Macan living on the drive though I live in a low risk area won't help. Since when were garages f...
