Nope. I've got silver handles on mine...

Had this issue with my drivers door handle sticking about a month ago. Couple of squirts of bicycle chain lube in the handle mechanism and exercised a few times to spread lubricant seems to have fixed the issue.

I'm recently experiencing this problem on the driver's door handle of my 2020 GTS. Never had it in 4 years (2019-2023) of ownership of my 2015 Turbo.
Probably cheaper quality materials used on Gen 2 ?
Anyway, I'll try the silicone spray option.

I’ve had it over the last 4 years that I have owned my Macan, I use the silicone spray method, which seems to last a few months.
