I was checking the fuse box locations and fuses for the aircon pressure sensor and the air con control units as a first step for an aircon issue in my 2016 Macan S.
In my owners manual the fuse box diagrams are “a*** about face” to the actual fuses!!! Absolutely useless to follow. Anyone else noticed that?? I’m beginning to lose faith in the quality of Porsche altogether based on my several years experience now. Might as well buy and Audi and save 20k. 🤬

Yes, it’s because it’s a left hand drive car converted for the few countries that drive on the correct side of the road. You have to use some imagination when working out which side fuse box you are looking at. Wouldn’t surprise me if Audi are the same!

The RHD/LHD thing is not the reason. The fusebox relays shown in the manual are correct regarding driver side and passenger side for a RHD car.
The issue is that on each side the diagram in the manual has the fuse banks the wrong way around which is confusing as hell trying to follow.
As regards Audi, you're probably correct.
