Engine Control Fault!!
Update***
Firstly, I'm a little annoyed for seeming to have to chase the OPC for updates! When i do get through they have the details but just haven't bothered to let me know, thats how its seems anyway, had the same issue with the 911 that was in for MOT and Oil/Filter recently....
Anyway, the update is the Ad-blue pump needs replacing !!
The good news is its a warranty item, the bad news its on back order and no parts expected until 8th August
The Macan in the Family car, has tow bar and we use it with a bike rack, thus with school holidays starting this week and things planned this is a real pain in the backside as the OPC has advised not to drive it, thus they will keep it until its repaired

Can anyone give me some advice, I picked up my 2015 Macan base model last weekend, everything was perfect until I got the engine control fault driving permitted warning message. The temp of the engine and everything else is fine and the car is driving fine, I have been to a garage today who plugged it in and found no error codes so cleared it for me, half an hour later I got it again! Any advice ?
Thanks

There must be a fault. Most probably if the garage who checked it wasn't an OPC, their software wasn't up to date. As Col says take it back to the garage you bought it from. If they can't fix it then you can reject the car.Sara06 wrote: ↑Fri May 12, 2023 10:04 pm Can anyone give me some advice, I picked up my 2015 Macan base model last weekend, everything was perfect until I got the engine control fault driving permitted warning message.

I had a similar issue with my high-mileage SD recently. The initial warning soon turned to be an adblue specific message warning that in 600 miles the car could not be started. Apparently, the adblue crystalises in the pipes and in the injector over time and stops the flow into the exhaust. Local indy didn't want to know, and Porsche Belfast wouldn't even take a look for 4 weeks. Unimpressed.
If you look at the top of the engine under where the wipers are, you can often see the crystals formed all around the injector port. I got lucky as mine turned out to be a split in the pipe only. Still, I was relieved of £245 for a replacement. My local indy now stocks an additive to reduce the crystals forming.
