When the system is superior to the nut behind the wheel, I agree. For example ABS is far better than any human could achieve. Unfortunately the new autonomous aids have a long way to go. On my way to work on Friday, on a route I have driven for 37 years my Macan decided to slap on the anchors witho...

Re: Crazy interim maintenance cost, or is it just me???

The first service on my GTS in August 2022 was £783 at Porsche Sutton Coldfield. It included everything that Steve has quoted above plus a check of the Panoramic Roof drains.

Re: Trickle charger connection

CTEK produce a kit that can be permanently wired to the underbonnet connections with an interface connection (with a weatherproof cap) which allows the charger lead to be fed out via the rear of the bonnet.

Re: 5 years of top tips

If i recall directly, my 2013 Cayenne Diesel (MY2014) was the first version of that car to have this feature. It has been there on both my Macans. Not that I use it very often.
