I wouldn’t mind if it was reliable

Try and do it when you are outside the office doesn’t work

Do it when washing the car and of course don’t want it to open, hey presto!

Anyway, as i had my hands full, i thought i'd try it - firstly, you feel like an absolute bellend doing it, but it did actually work! You sort of swipe you whole foot under the right side of the bumper from left to right. And it opens, (No need to unlock first as it's part of the comfort access feature i think).

Got me wondering whether the Macan has this featured (being linked to VW etc). I think I would feel even more stupid doing it on the Macan, but I wondered if anyone knows if it's there?
I have it on my X3. Like you say, waving your foot around make you feel like a plonker, as you never hit the sensor straight away. I only found out it was fitted when we were sat in the boot changing our shoes after a walk out. Beeping noise, and the boot started closing with us half hanging out. One of us had mistakenly put our foot over the sensor.

Its a feature I never use, and could easily live without it ever existing.

Absolutely. I don't want nor need it on the Macan, but good to know it's not included... (Would feel even more of an idiot waving my foot around on a car that didn't even have it 🤦🏻‍♂️😂)
