Re: Gen II Random disappearing Sat Nav Favs

Phone is connected and reliable and I know this as I can see the icon showing connection on the PCM. I use an Android device and you only get the Amazon music icon showing when you have a solid connection. Keys - We have 2 sets and good thought; however, we tend to only ever use my keys as rule, re...

Gen II Random disappearing Sat Nav Favs

Interested to see if anyone else is seeing this. I have successfully made 20 or so Sat Nav favourites from the My Porsche web page and these appear in the car when I access the Sat Nav - all good, only it’s not as they randomly appear and disappear. I had expected once downloaded they would be avail...

Re: Update - GTS Driven & Deposit Paid!

So, I think I am finally there: http://www.porsche-code.com/PMY1HAN1 Still not convinced on SC, BOSE or Air to be honest - but too scared to not spec them and later regret it! Nice spec. Comments on those you have doubts over: Ride I think from reading this forum for a while now there are 2 camps: ...

Re: New 2021 Macan GTS

Hi guys, new to the Porsche brand coming from many years with BMW, looking at some feed back on colours, managed to get a cancellation Order for November delivery and the spec lock date is fast approaching, after many sleepless nights getting the specifications right without ticking all the boxes a...

Re: Pothole Killed my tyre - Spare Change not too hard

I locked-in the spec on my GTS almost 3 weeks ago and in my original configuration I'd included the spare. However the sales guy at the OPC convinced me to remove the option saying that (1) the under-floor storage space is very useful, and (2) the responsiveness of Porsche's breakdown service is so...

Re: Pothole Killed my tyre - Spare Change not too hard

So after around 30 years I had to make a wheel change today. Instant deflations are relatively rare. I've not had one in over 40 years / 1 million miles and so not needed to do a roadside change. I've had a half a dozen "slow" punctures in that time. These enabled me to drive carefully to...

Re: Pothole Killed my tyre - Spare Change not too hard

Couple more on-line suppliers Hi Steve. These do look cheaper, but lead time too long 1 week+; 1 day of 50mph max speed was too long ;) These prices dont look to be fully fitted? 10% discount on a pair also makes these more competative (£216 each fully fitted) Just got mine replaced this morning at...

Re: Pothole Killed my tyre - Spare Change not too hard

That’s quite a lot for one tyre. I recently got a few nails in one of mine and wrote it off, at 19k miles so I decided to buy four new N rated Michelin’s for £773 fitted. I am running on my 20” winters until the tyres come in this Friday, if I did not have the winters I too would have used the spar...

Re: How much extra would you pay for a BEV Macan?

EVs are hurting manufacturers. It was predicted that battery pricing would fall a LOT faster than it has and it's proving very hard to produce EVs with a decent range with an acceptable price. At the moment, EVs are convenient to get the mnfr CO2 footprint down - avoiding a hefty EU fine. It's chea...
