Macan S
Age: 3 years
Mileage: 26K
Issues: Leak in passenger footwell.
Headlight washers not working.
Wheel center caps corroded.
Other than above which have been fixed under warranty a fantastic car.
Have just had it MOT'd and have taken out a 1 year extended warranty also due to one wheel being slightly kerbed and
others showing some corrosion had all four refurbished at The Wheel Specialist, a great job so all good :D
Ordered August 2014 Delivery
hopefully September 2015

GTS
Owned 14 months & 11,000 Miles
2 new windscreens but otherwise fine. Believe Macan windscreens are very susceptible to damage

3.5 years old, rear wiper fix for earlier models, tracking transmitter issues OPC informed me there is a issue here have kept proof OPC has logged it, pending fix in due course it's not a few hours!

Possibly proximity sensor issue, pending previous messages indicate it's warranty, a specialist repair man said remove wheel plastic behind wheel and fix, opc implied remove bumber a big difference the latter may be four figures if not warranty.

SD
18 months old, 14,000 miles
Possible tiny oil leak from the PDK. Advised that it is so small that it will not have any detrimental effect on the car and no need to replace the PDK.
1 replacement windscreen
Otherwise no problems so far

I do experience very spongy brakes when cold. OPC say they’re fine but I still have my doubts. Anything similar or thoughts?
Guess they changed the brake fluid at two years and did it have the problem before the change?

Just the same now as it’s always been. At start-up, particularly the first one, there’s very little feel. I have next to no idea of when they’re going to bite. As we live on a terrace with everyone parallel parked both sides it makes for some interesting moments when trying to ‘escape’ from our space. Needless to say this sudden braking does not go well with Mrs D either! 🤯
