Macan S Dec16 Build

Holding down the tailgate open button in the door does close the tailgate for us.
However, a long press on the key fob button does not work.

Ditto on our Gen 3 S, despite being told at the OPC that it wasn't possible. Had a bunch of software updates recently and I'm wondering if this was enabled by one of those.

No update involved, it's always been possible on mine and it makes a good beeping noise to warn people to keep clear as it closes.

It does indeed, but makes you wonder why the SEs are seemingly unaware of this :roll:

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.

A long press of the key fob used to close the tailgate on my old SD, that doesn’t seem to work on the GTS of the same MY. I wonder if it’s something to do with entry and drive? The SD never had that and the GTS does.

I think it just opens or closes the little vent built into the dial, but I may be mistaken.
