Interested to know from other Macan 2 owners if they got their leather pack with service book and driver handbook ? I was told by my OPC that they haven’t been printed yet and will be posted when available

Didn’t get any with my new 911. OPC rang me to say they’re in now and will put them in the car when it has its plates swapped on Wednesday.
Sure he told me they’re going to phase them out eventually.

Hi, I picked up my Macan 2 on 28th Dec and like you still awaiting the handbook/docs etc.. went into my OPC yesterday for an update and was told this was a Nationwide problem with all OPC's having similar delays in getting handbooks from Porsche. Do not understand what is causing such a delay, they are coming into dealerships by build number in dribs and drabs. My SE did check all his remaining Macan2's in stock and none had a handbook in the car, using the Porsche handbook App on my wife's iPad for initial reading.

Should we refuse to accept the car until it comes with its handbook ? I put a deposit down for the new Macan S back in February 2018, and am told my car should be delivered towards the end of March 2019. As it will be my first ever Porsche, I would feel lost without a handbook. Whatever happened to 'German efficiency' ?

The Porsche Good to Know app which is an online manual has been updated for Macan 2018 onwards. I have been reading the android version from time to time in advance of the arrival of my car.

All manuals, service records etc. will be online in the very near future. Get used to it.

The point you raise is true, but the original question was based on a car that is still supposed to be supplied with paper, or should be.

The App clearly states that it is not a substitute of printed book (yet).

It took a couple of months for my books to arrive after I collected the Macan GTS. Looks like the same issue again either the manuals being out of print

VAG suppliers must be printing OM in small batches... not in synch with the production schedule.

In a perfect world, the whole German industry would run on SAP [emoji38]
