So why does it take 2 business days for my phone to connect to Apple CarPlay even when plugged in I tried changing the wire doing it without being plugged in and it still takes so long and sometimes won’t even connect. I have to keep hitting the connect to CarPlay button under the phone settings. And it’ll connect disconnect after like four or five times it usually connects.

I’ve had the car for a few years now but recently with the southern pollen, I’ve drained my washer fluid tank. I refilled it with fluid but after reading some other posts here about using fluids with additives, the warning keeps coming on when I start the car.

No worries! Pollen and construction dust is still around so I’ll drain this tank soon. But what I’ve noticed is that if I don’t clear the error after starting the car, the air recirculation turns off. If I clear the error, I get the normal “air recirculation has been enabled”. I forget the exact message.

My question is this normal? And why would recirculation be tied to the washer fluid error?

Thanks!

Hi guys

Looking for solid references to where I should buy great after market pads and rotors for my macan s 2022.

Great quality after market bot looking for cheapest price just dont want to pay for OEM.

Advice is much appreciated.

Thanks

Hello,

Does changing the center console panel need any calibration or programming? my macan is 2017 base and I am switching with a one from 2018 same trim same buttons.

Fuse is fine but fan won’t run. Anyone have this issue ?

Is the Porsche website the best option or is there a more user friendly app anyone would recommend? The Porsche website is good but I’m hoping one of the apps may be more mobile/friendly

Has anyone else had suspension errors with lowering links.

I got an error message and heard some knocking noise on the right rear tire

Thanks

Hi all, does anyone know if the Graco 360 or the EvenFlow 360 car seat will fit in the Porsche Macan?

I'm 6'1 and my wife is 5'1 for reference.

If anyone has personally used either car seat and can provide any insight on the fit (pics even would be amazing) it would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance 👍

Recently started noticing an issue where I lose 0~1.6%/day of battery percentage after just being parked in (normal/ideal?) 71~81F weather :

Data 📉 Points

Apr. 11:

1. 8:55PM: 98% (outside temp = 75F, battery temp = 100F, range estimate = 345 miles, odometer = 4702 miles); charged till 98% while doing errands

2. 9:19PM: 95% (outside temp = 73F, battery temp = 82F, range estimate = 324 miles, odometer = 4713 miles)

3. 10:23PM: 94% (outside temp = 73F, battery temp = 82F, range estimate = 322 miles, odometer = 4713 miles); was running AC from 9:19PM ~ 10:23PM in an attempt to reduce SoC to recommended ideal of 80%

Miles-per-% Conclusion (under ideal outside temp): 11 miles = -3% = x -0.27 linear conversion factor

Apr. 12:

4. 10:28AM ~ 12:37PM: 94% -> 94% (??) (drove ~2.9 miles per GMaps)

5. 12:37PM: 94% (outside temp = 81F, battery temp = 74F, range estimate = 322 miles, odometer = 4716 miles)

8:49 ~ 10:15PM: drove 8.2 miles per GMaps (odometer = +10 miles)

10:15PM: 91.3?% (estimate, didn’t record)

Apr. 13:

6. 7:56PM 89% (outside temp = 77F, battery temp = 82F, range estimate = 315 miles, odometer = 4726 miles@ 7:56PM),

7. 10:15PM 86% (outside temp = 73F, battery temp = 82F, range estimate = 329 (went up?) miles, odometer = 4733 miles)

(NO USAGE FOR THE REST OF WEEK)

Apr. 17:

8. 11:45AM ~ 3:26PM: 79.62%? -> 78%? (drove 6.1 miles = estimate -1.62% usage)

9. 3:26PM: 78% (outside temp = 86F, battery temp = 82F, range estimate = 282 miles, odometer = 4740 miles)

So basically a 0~1.595% battery loss🪫 every day when just sitting (mostly shaded) in a parking lot overnight.

Q1: I know the car will still “run stuff” when off but this seems like a lot… Is this nominal, ie: within expected values?

Q2: I am wondering which electrical consumer(s) are parasitically draining the HV battery when “off”? & if anything can be done to “fix it”? (I ask because a -1.6%/day battery SoC loss means if the vehicle will basically be dead if left alone for ~62.5 days)

(Note, like most cars, this has a remote RF clicker fob, but the location where the car is parked is at least 250’ away from the key fob so I don’t think it should trigger it?)

The only caues I can possibly think of is:

A. at data point 3 it was not measuring correctly & over-measured at 94% even though I had just driven ~2.9 miles- which I thought was strange because it was 94% when I started as well, but even then, it should have still only been at most a 0.81% decrease based on a 3% decrease based on a 11 mile night drive the night before, and/or…

B. the Porsche app is periodically being sent GPS updates by the vehicle, even when parked & that is consuming ~1.6%? (not sure how to 100% confirm if this is the case? but I do not see the reported battery % change until I next get into the vehicle- whereby I then notice the discrepancy, so I am assuming, it probably isn’t this?), and/or…

C. when the vehicle was acquired in Oct. 1, 2025, I am wondering if the expensive ELO GPS (aka “Lo-Jack”) device + service was actually NOT in fact removed & is secretly causing the battery drainage? (I say this as I refused this as a condition of payment since these are expensive & I heard they commonly are sources of phantom parasitic battery drain + the free Porsche app already tracks it).

Thoughts?

I was wondering whether anyone else has the wheel & tire protection package through Zurich and if you've ever had issues getting reimbursed? (a new tire in my case).

I am attempting to submit a claim, but Zurich requires a contract number associated with the protection package I purchased and I have no documentation that provides such a contract number. I have a signed "Select Protection Contract - Information Schedule" that appears to provide everything except a contract number. I have contacted the Porsche dealership where I bought the car but it seems they cannot provide it. Anyone else go through this?

A data point for those looking for a 2026 CPO. I just landed a base model with less than 3k miles on it for 20% off original MSRP and it's cherry. Amazing deal imho.
