Macans are about to be uninsurable!

^^^ When I get indoors, I also check on the App to ensure the locked symbol is showing the green tick...

The more I think about it, the more I wonder how many Macan's being stolen are due to simply being left unlocked.

I have noticed with my own key that sometimes it does not respond to a lock command. It would be simple enough to not notice it hasn't locked if you are on your way in, perhaps.

A friend of mine who lives a few moments away says their street WhatsApp group is full of Ring camera footage of ne'er do well's walking down his road trying the handles of every car they come across. I am willing to bet more people leave their car unlocked (accidentally or through sheer negligence) than you'd tend to realise. That combined with that OBD trick above...

Yeah, the lock bottom rarely works full time. I can’t just walk away and press the button. I have to physically look at the car to see if the indicators flash and the mirrors fold in. Not good that locking your car is so poorly designed.

Took mine to OPC for very reason that lock button often doesn’t do anything. Almost feels like an issue with key button mechanism rather than anything else. Of course they found no error codes (supports theory key button isn’t activating) and couldn’t recreate error.

Always check mirrors and flashing light before walkoing away.

Me again!
Have got my 3rd Macan. This time I bought a 23 car with 3,200 miles
Had to keep Factory tracker for insurance co (ridiculous) now have Meta immobiliser and tracker, apple tags and steering wheel cover.
Have I forgotten anything??
With meta you can remotely stop the car if it has been driven off which I like! Also if gps aerial is removed it reverts to a Bluetooth signal like a tag.
Worryingly 2 Macans have been reported stolen on our local Nextdoor (London W9) in last 10 days
Have no idea why there is a need for so many Macans!
Look on bright side at this rate there will be so few the values will go up!
