PDK reset never seems to do much for me. Maybe my driving style is already Porsche optimised :-)

You may well be right; lower mileage “week-end” use (less populated roads, more opportuity for fullish throttle, etc, etc) is possibly the answer.

My own use (10 - 12 K per annum) necessarily involves following the Daisy Family much of the time and trickling along becomes the norm☹️

My PDK needs re- educating periodically😉

I've just tried this reset method having just bought a 2017 Macan. The take off seemed mighty slugish with lots of revs, almost like it had a slipping clutch. After the PDK reset the gear change has been transformed & is nice and snappy. Phew.
