Alex, Thank-you for the best 2022 Macan tutorial available. Our dealer and Porsche North America didn't help us at all! Porsche should be ashamed of their owners manual, owners site aids, and videos. Your video saved the day.
Just got a 2022 Macan for my wife. We're in Birmingham AL. It's her first Porsche. We take delivery in two days. Until then I'll have her watch this helpful video! Thanks!
I wish my dealer had spent the time to go through this soon after delivery (by Marin Porsche) of my 2022 Macan. That was a great detailed overview that was very concise!
You just took so much of the burden off of me. ADD is a struggle when it comes to details. This really helped me. Thanks for taking the time to do it for us.
Hi Alex and greetings from Ireland. Wonderful tutorial!! Have just used your video to set up my new Macan. Everything works perfectly, keep up the excellent work !
Greetings from America. Thank you for watching my video. I didn’t realize how many people would watch these videos across the whole world. I originally made these videos for customers I sell cars to that live out of state. Your in another country that is so cool!!!!!! if you’re ever in Austin Texas, stop by and see me at the 7 story Porsche Center here
Alex your AWESOME!!! This tutorial was VERY helpful! The service we received at our dealership was terrible. We purchased a 2023 Macan T, any different tricks & easy tips for the T model? Thanks for the great tutorial!
Angela thanks for your kind words. I appreciate you taking the time to watch my tutorial. The Macan T is fun. The Sport Chrono dial on the steering wheel is fun! If you press the button in the middle it will unleash some great power for 20 seconds. You can turn it on and off any time. Sport is probably the most fun to drive in and sport plus will feel more like it is set up to go racing.
Thanks Alex, what a really useful video. I'm taking delivery of my Macan GTS next week and can't wait to get involved with the various settings.I'll be in Austin later in the year for F1 and will try and visit your showroom.
Hi Brendan thanks for the nice words. The Macan GTS is thrilling! What a great choice in our line up. Stop by and ask for me I sit at the first desk when you walk in. Ill show you our 7 story masterpiece of a building and our underground garage. Look forward to meeting you Brendan!
Hi Max thanks for watching! I am pleased to hear your father choose us to get his Cayenne from. We have some great 911’s that come in monthly. Stop in we can test drive one.
Nice and informative video! Good job! May consider doing less camera movements, especially with interior shots. Moving the camera back and forth towards the center console resulted in a rather jarring experience. Perhaps a tripod mounted camera in the back seat? I normally anchor a tripod in the backseat during those PCA weekend drives. Enjoying the 2024 Macan as a loaner as my vehicle is being serviced at the dealership. Keep up the good work!
Yes, that is normal. The car does not want you to be typing and driving. There is a voice command button on the touchscreen. It looks like a microphone.
Thanks so much for the video! I was wondering if there is somewhere I can see the mute/unmute setting on the screen when I’m on my iPhone? That would be very helpful while I am on a conference call and there are others in the car. Thanks!
Is there a way to not show notifications on car screen but keep notifications showing on the phone? Also, you can only connect phone through Bluetooth? No plug n play?
Hi in the Navigation is there an option to where it shows you the "next steps" to your destination? Like one of those that shows "Turn right on X street".
Hey Alex, is there any way to avoid the radio playing every time I start the car as I'm waiting for CarPlay to kick in? It's super annoying... I'd rather it just be silent until it's ready to connect CarPlay.
There is a button on the top portion in front of the rear view mirror. It has a symbol with a door opening. Click it this may be your answer. Seems to work only at night.
Does the 2024 macan have a permanent moonroof that doesn’t open up? I don’t like the moonroof which opens up to the open air like the Cayenne. Thank you
Thanks for watching. There is not a way to stop it from popping up. You could go onto devices and click on the Bluetooth icon and come back to that same page to turn Apple CarPlay back on by clicking the CarPlay icon. But CarPlay will always connect if Wi-Fi is turned on in your phone.
My new Macan S 2023 is missing the Comfort Entry features and electrically adjustable steering wheel which I had on my previous Porsche (2016 Macan Turbo). Why? I am also told that Google Earth is no longer accessible. Why, again? Thanks.
Thanks for this great run through! ? for you. I am the main driver so I added my iPhone to CarPlay and it works great. When I added my wife's phone to CarPlay and we are both in the car, it doesn't correct to my phone consistently. Sometimes her's will be connected and other times mine. I have removed hers because it was distracting. Any thoughts on this?
Thanks for watching. Under the devices setting just make sure that the desired phone is selected and highlighted. Since your phone is the primary, it will default to that when you get in the car.
How to sync the rear windshield wiper with front wipers ?? Your previous directions were great. Those r now solved. Front/rear wipers need sync i Please !
Yeah, just set up the new mirror position and the seat position. Then press set and then press whichever number you want to replace. Also press that and then press the key button on the bottom of that panel.
Hi Alex, Thank you for such an informative video! Can you help me with a silly issue that is bugging me for some time? I get a consistent TPMS warning showing -3pa in one of the tyres and I am unable to reset it.
Good day! Inside of the smaller cluster setting make sure that under the tire pressure setting it does not say full load. Also make sure to check there is not a nail in causing a small leak. Last, but not least is there a Porsche center they can make sure the TPMS sensor is not faulty?
Hey, apple carplay keeps showing up after few mins simultaneously, is their any way to tell to porche to not show apple carplay when i am driving? your video is very helpful!!
Ahhh thats RIGHT! I totally forgot about the beloved heated steering wheel button. It is located at the bottom section of the steering wheel. It is on the inside of the lip of the bottom part of the steering wheel.
Hi, thanks for sharing when you turn off the auto start stop engine when you turn the car off does it reengage itself and you have to remember to turn it off every time or is it a one time set it and forget it thanks.
Hi Walter. The auto start stop reengages every time you turn off the car. You will need to press the button every time or go into sport mode to disable. In the past you could program the function off with the key settings. Try pressing the auto start stop button then go to the door and press SET then hold down Key symbol till you hear a beep. Let me know if you have luck.
Can you please provide more details on 'Integrated SIM card' which shows up in the console ? And also does Porsche Macan 2022 comes with lifetime Sirius radio ?
I have a question about the 2024 Macan. When our salesperson showed us the various settings (really fast) he turned off the beeping that tells you if a car is in your blind spot. He said he didn't like it. Well I DO like it. What are the steps to turn that feature back on?
Good day landlord, I believe that Srini will need to be deactivated every time. On the previous generation Macan, you were able to save it with the key settings.
Can someone help with panel buttons. That's confusing to me. Traction control without red is turned on? And i believe everyone should always keep that on, right? But with others controls, turning them red means on?
The Traction control is off automatically. There is no need to press the button. Just leave the Traction control on. When you hold the button down for a few seconds it turns Traction control off.
@@Lamborghini_Alex Thanks , you mean it is on automatically right? I believe it is just a typo. Also for the rest of the controls, turning the button red makes it on, right?
Waiting my Macan 2022 by this coming August, it was nice to have a bit of clue since I’m first time Porsche owner. Have couple questions like, what’s the “Indegradent SIM Card”, if SeriusXM is for free etc. Thank Alex!
Hi Dimitri hope this helps. (1) the car is connected to Porsche with a built in SIM - let’s call it A. SIM A is used by the Porsche Connect system to provide SOS calling and to support the Porsche Connect App features. When you buy the car you create a connect ID and enable these services.

Alex I have a 2023 Macan how can I have that car lock automatically after I walk a way with my key? My 2021 911 carrera does it and I would love my macan to do it too thanks
Dear Alex, thank you for an excellent and highly informative video. It saved me hours from reading the manual on my new macan. Quick question, it seems that the manual is not installed in my new macan. Is this something that is installed at the dealership or it is already factory instlalled? (my car is European specs)
Thanks Michalis glad you enjoyed it. The owners manual typically is installed at the dealer level here in the states. Ask your dealer if they forgot to install it.
Thanks for posting this. Is there a way to scroll through my favorite XM stations using either the diamond button on the right side of the steering wheel or the arrow button on the left side? I could do this with the diamond button on my '17 Macan, but not my new '22 Macan. Right now, both of those buttons will only advance to the next numerical station, not my next favorite station.
Try using the Porsche Macon voice commands. Click on the blinker button edge and wait for the Macan prompt. Then simply say “hey Porsche” play Margaritaville on Sirius radio or what ever station you prefer.
With the new touch piano black center counsel, will you see blank spots where an option was not purchased as you did with the previous toggle switches or will the icon be there but not functioning?
With the new center counsel the items that were not added on will not light up. They will be there in certain cases but not display on. It is not as apparent as the previous generation.
Hi mate, I just took delivery of a '22 Macan S (optioned with CarPlay). But somehow it doesn't seems to support wireless CarPlay. My car is Asian-spec. I don't know if it's just different from the US-spec or my car is having some malfunctions with the PCM system. Thank you!
Sorry to hear about that. That might be an Asia spec issue for the wireless CarPlay. Have you used Apple CarPlay wireless before on any other car? Sometimes Apple CarPlay and hey Siri need to be turned on to activate.
I think what you are looking for can be found in the smaller cluster menu in front of steering wheel. It would be found under vehicle settings under S.C
Hello. I just just bought a Macan MY2022. Every time I hit the road, I get a notification on my dash board saying " speed limit display currently limited". Is their anyway to turn off this notification ?
First try cleaning your windshield so the camera can read traffic signs. From the manual: Speed limit display is temporarily unavailable due to weather conditions or dirt on the windscreen. Windscreen may need cleaning. If the fault persists: Have the fault corrected at a qualified specialist at a Local Porsche center
@@Lamborghini_Alex That's what i thought. Thanks a lot. I will take it to my local Porsche center. Another question: My apple car play only works if I attach my iPhone through a USB cable. shouldn't it also work wrirelssly through Bluetooth?
Hey Alex, thanks for the tutorial! I’m awaiting my 2023 Macan GTS scheduled to arrive in late December/early January. Are there any major differences between the 2022 and 2023 models?
Hey Tasha glad you enjoyed it! 😎 no changes between 2022 and 2023. You should have an easy time setting up your Macan now. Welcome to the Porsche Family! We are glad you joined us. Your gonna be a member for life after this Macan GTS
@@Lamborghini_Alex of all time?! Ahhh! I’m so excited! I’ve never seen chalk in person so the suspense is making this even more exciting! And I made a couple other tweaks to the exterior design. I can’t wait! I’m on the east coast but I’ll need to stop by when I’m out that way!
You will love it. Ive made a RUclips short on a chalk Macan. Its on my profile page. Stop on by you will love our store its one of the biggest in the world here in Austin Tx!
Hello Joe. He will typically use this when it is colder outside. You would press it before turning off your car. Look at your AUTO climate control button. On the driver's side REST is printed in small letters next to AUTO. To activate the function turn off the car and press the AUTO/REST button. The heat will keep circulating for up to 20 minutes. So you will notice the fans after you turn off the car. If you were running into the store really quick. You’ll get back into the car and it will be nice and toasty if it’s less than 20 minutes. Keep in mind this does pull some energy from the battery. When You get back in the car and start it the system goes back into auto mode.
This was a Macan S. In the line up of trim levels this is level 2 from the top of 3 levels. The variants are Macan, Macan S and Macan GTS. The Macan with equipment can run $67,000-$80,000 on average. Macan S is $78,000-$90,000. The Macan GTS can range $98,000-$120,000. Of course you can get more expensive on any one of these models. These numbers are just averages.
@@Lamborghini_Alex It is definitely nice. We were travel nurses for 5 years and have settled in the Bay Area. As much as I love the truck, I just don't use it as intended and it's silly parking this beast around here in these little towns. There are so many roads the Macan (GTS) is made for here. MSRP - most excellent! A Doctor I work with has a relationship with a Porsche dealer in LA who I just sent my tentative build sheet to this past weekend - via the Doc. We'll see, but if things get awkward I'll be making a drive to Austin. Thank you so much for getting back to me so quickly.
Thanks Andrew let me know if you wanna put something together. I send cars all over the US. Send over your build code when you get a chance I wanna see what you have put together!
@@Lamborghini_Alex Will do. It’s a modest build focused on driving. I’d love to do little things like a special color for the tach and/or chrono, but I’m just a well paid Bay Area special procedure nurse. Build comes out to like 91k or so. I’ll send it over tonight. Thanks a lot.
2024 Porsche Macan S does not have a cigarette lighter portal in the car. Their port o charge charger requires it. You can arrange for service to do it. Installation $500+ Porsche port o charger costs $215. I'm letting enthusiasts know only, and if, price matters.
@@Lamborghini_Alex Thanks Alex. I've seen and heard different responses to that interestingly. Do you know if the Macan T will be any different? Wireless Apple and Wired Android?
Good evening Albert. I did some digging and Macan does not have android auto available yet according to the configurator at Porsche USA. We currently have it in other models not the Macan yet. Wireless apple carplay is the only Porsche native application available on Macan at the moment. Sorry to miss inform. Will delete last response.
Personally, I do not like the auto AC because I live in Texas. When you choose the auto AC, it sends the air out of the top, the bottom and the middle air vents. In Texas most people want the air right on the body. Most people in hotter climates set temp to Lo or 60 degrees. When this happens, the fan speed is full blast on auto AC.
At the moment Porsche Macan does not have the android auto option. When Porsche was originally doing the research, we found that only 10% of our customers had androids. they just started incorporating android auto into Cayenne, Taycan and 911 for 2023. Im very sorry about this 🥲
2024 Porsche Macan S is not capable of syncing the rear and front wipers. Rear engages only in reverse or manually. You never realize or discover all the dead ends until you take possession of your new luxury auto. ➕️ there's only two portals for your cellphone. 😢😢😢 The radio can't be turned off, only muted. Ohh the agony.
Porsche, you could've done better with two things. 1ST. The Nav looks outdated & 2nd. You should have an all digital screen for the drivers info. I.E speedometer, & RPM. It's 2022... not 2017
Gas cap? Exposed rear wiper? Analog plastic gauges? No push to start? No wireless CarPlay? Bruh this car is 5 years behind even the most basic of cars.
Glare, now that's an issue for ownership. Sorry officer I was distracted by the glare. Adaptive cruise control not standard? Really! Even ordinary cars have that. I don't go with the 'but this is a premium adaptive'. Volvo is always the innovator there, even Mercedes was behind them.
Thanks for the observation. The glare was due to the angle that I had the GoPro. From the normal driving situation the Glare is not as noticeable. We have never had a customer complain about glare of the thousands of Macan’s we have sold through my store. Also ACC is now standard on the Macan. It was an option in the past because not everyone like the robotic feeling of ACC. Most porsche drivers enjoy driving their car not putting them into cruise control. Good look with your Volvo my grand parents love theirs!
I wanted to love this car when I was looking to buy a new luxury car but... The seats suck soooooooo bad. I mean when you spend $100k, you want seats that feel good. Especially since you will be getting in and out of the car and long drives. They are too narrow for a 200lbs man. Then there is an edge on the seat makes it hurt over time getting in and out of the car overtime. They have a wider option but then you still have the lips on the seat that just are uncomfortable. Really just sad for this price. Because Hyundai has an option for the seats to adjust to grip you like the Porsche seats, but you can also relax the seats. When a $50k car can out comfort a $100k car, it just makes me realize how over priced these piece of craps luxury cars are. Oh and no hot/cold cup holders. Never buying a Porsche again.
This was amazing. 2 yrs later and still perfect for a new Macan owner like me. So appreciate you!
Thanks for watching

Very helpful. Thank you!
My drivers side mirror doesn't fold in when I lock the Macan S. What did I do wrong ? What's the fix ?😢
Going to vehicle settings, then going to door and lock settings. There should be a fold mirrors when locking box to check off.
Thank you!!!! very informative!!!
I hope you enjoyed!
SUPER HELPFUL! G8D BLESS YOU!🤟✌️🙏🤺🎯

Pretty sure he didn't mention it but does it come with an in app remote start?
Is there a way to not show notifications on car screen but keep notifications showing on the phone?
Also, you can only connect phone through Bluetooth? No plug n play?
There is an option inside of notifications messaging on the phone. You can adjust it to where it doesn’t appear during CarPlay operation.
@@Lamborghini_Alexis there a way to set it to play music without connecting to CarPlay at all? Like a plug and play?
@briancrizaldo7640 if it from the phone it will require some connection bluetooth or wifi for CarPlay
Hi in the Navigation is there an option to where it shows you the "next steps" to your destination?
Like one of those that shows "Turn right on X street".
I do not believe so
Hey Alex, is there any way to avoid the radio playing every time I start the car as I'm waiting for CarPlay to kick in? It's super annoying... I'd rather it just be silent until it's ready to connect CarPlay.
How do you get inside car lights to light up when you open the doors.
There is a button on the top portion in front of the rear view mirror. It has a symbol with a door opening. Click it this may be your answer. Seems to work only at night.
how can you make the radio advance button on the steering wheel go to the next favorite Sirius station rather than the next numerical station?
How do I get a full screen view? It is divided in two currently
Our can’t persuade my Macan to open ALL WINDOWS from key fob any ideas?
Never been able to do it my self 😧
And yet on line tutorials show it as a feature as does the Porsche dealer?
Does the 2024 macan have a permanent moonroof that doesn’t open up? I don’t like the moonroof which opens up to the open air like the Cayenne. Thank you

Alex I have a 2023 Macan how can I have that car lock automatically after I walk a way with my key? My 2021 911 carrera does it and I would love my macan to do it too thanks
There is not a walk away auto lock for the Macan 🫡
How do you open the armrest console
Dear Alex, thank you for an excellent and highly informative video. It saved me hours from reading the manual on my new macan. Quick question, it seems that the manual is not installed in my new macan. Is this something that is installed at the dealership or it is already factory instlalled? (my car is European specs)
Thanks Michalis glad you enjoyed it. The owners manual typically is installed at the dealer level here in the states. Ask your dealer if they forgot to install it.
hi Alex, i just bought 2023 macan. i forgot how to look for gas stations' gas price near me with satalite view.
Alex, Nice presentation, can u tell me if that car is pure white or CWM?
This car was pure white
Thanks for posting this. Is there a way to scroll through my favorite XM stations using either the diamond button on the right side of the steering wheel or the arrow button on the left side? I could do this with the diamond button on my '17 Macan, but not my new '22 Macan. Right now, both of those buttons will only advance to the next numerical station, not my next favorite station.
I believe you will only be able to skip to the next Sirius station not your favorite station.
Try using the Porsche Macon voice commands. Click on the blinker button edge and wait for the Macan prompt. Then simply say “hey Porsche” play Margaritaville on Sirius radio or what ever station you prefer.
Is there a cigarette lighter/ car adapter socket on this vehicle?
For the price I dont why Porsche doesnt have any kind ambient lighting option on the Macan like most other competitors include.
great tutorial! applying into my GTS that is a better choice than 911~~
With the new touch piano black center counsel, will you see blank spots where an option was not purchased as you did with the previous toggle switches or will the icon be there but not functioning?
With the new center counsel the items that were not added on will not light up. They will be there in certain cases but not display on. It is not as apparent as the previous generation.
Hi mate, I just took delivery of a '22 Macan S (optioned with CarPlay). But somehow it doesn't seems to support wireless CarPlay. My car is Asian-spec. I don't know if it's just different from the US-spec or my car is having some malfunctions with the PCM system. Thank you!
Sorry to hear about that. That might be an Asia spec issue for the wireless CarPlay. Have you used Apple CarPlay wireless before on any other car? Sometimes Apple CarPlay and hey Siri need to be turned on to activate.
Hi Alex, do you know how can I customize my sc individual mode settings in the 2022 ver.?
I think what you are looking for can be found in the smaller cluster menu in front of steering wheel. It would be found under vehicle settings under S.C
@@Lamborghini_Alex Thank you so much!
Hello.
I just just bought a Macan MY2022. Every time I hit the road, I get a notification on my dash board saying " speed limit display currently limited". Is their anyway to turn off this notification ?
First try cleaning your windshield so the camera can read traffic signs. From the manual:
Speed limit display is temporarily unavailable due to weather conditions or dirt on the windscreen.
Windscreen may need cleaning.
If the fault persists:
Have the fault corrected at a qualified specialist at a Local Porsche center
@@Lamborghini_Alex That's what i thought. Thanks a lot. I will take it to my local Porsche center.
Another question: My apple car play only works if I attach my iPhone through a USB cable. shouldn't it also work wrirelssly through Bluetooth?
Thanks Gary. Your apple phone can connect wirelessly through Wifi
Smart Budd!
Yes sir
Hey Alex, thanks for the tutorial! I’m awaiting my 2023 Macan GTS scheduled to arrive in late December/early January. Are there any major differences between the 2022 and 2023 models?
Hey Tasha glad you enjoyed it! 😎 no changes between 2022 and 2023. You should have an easy time setting up your Macan now. Welcome to the Porsche Family! We are glad you joined us. Your gonna be a member for life after this Macan GTS
@@Lamborghini_Alex yes! Thank you again! I saved this video so I can come back to it once it arrives! I’m excited to see the chalk color in person 🥰😍.
Chalk may be my favorite color of all time for the Macan 🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@Lamborghini_Alex of all time?! Ahhh! I’m so excited! I’ve never seen chalk in person so the suspense is making this even more exciting! And I made a couple other tweaks to the exterior design. I can’t wait! I’m on the east coast but I’ll need to stop by when I’m out that way!
You will love it. Ive made a RUclips short on a chalk Macan. Its on my profile page. Stop on by you will love our store its one of the biggest in the world here in Austin Tx!
What's the anti-theft on these?
and many will never run apple anything, where's the Android and linux phone connections, how do we root this?
What is Auto Rest, please?
Hello Joe. He will typically use this when it is colder outside. You would press it before turning off your car. Look at your AUTO climate control button. On the driver's side REST is printed in small letters next to AUTO. To activate the function turn off the car and press the AUTO/REST button. The heat will keep circulating for up to 20 minutes. So you will notice the fans after you turn off the car. If you were running into the store really quick. You’ll get back into the car and it will be nice and toasty if it’s less than 20 minutes. Keep in mind this does pull some energy from the battery. When You get back in the car and start it the system goes back into auto mode.
full screen apple car play?
Partial screen CarPlay with changeable options on side
Was this the base model Porsche?
This was a Macan S. In the line up of trim levels this is level 2 from the top of 3 levels. The variants are Macan, Macan S and Macan GTS. The Macan with equipment can run $67,000-$80,000 on average. Macan S is $78,000-$90,000. The Macan GTS can range $98,000-$120,000. Of course you can get more expensive on any one of these models. These numbers are just averages.
Alex are you guys charging dealer markup on a custom ordered Macan? I’m in the Bay Area and have a 2020 Ford F250 Tremor Diesel I’d be trading in.
Hi Andrew! We are selling Custom Macan’s at MSRP. The F250 sounds nice.
@@Lamborghini_Alex It is definitely nice. We were travel nurses for 5 years and have settled in the Bay Area. As much as I love the truck, I just don't use it as intended and it's silly parking this beast around here in these little towns. There are so many roads the Macan (GTS) is made for here. MSRP - most excellent! A Doctor I work with has a relationship with a Porsche dealer in LA who I just sent my tentative build sheet to this past weekend - via the Doc. We'll see, but if things get awkward I'll be making a drive to Austin.
Thank you so much for getting back to me so quickly.
Thanks Andrew let me know if you wanna put something together. I send cars all over the US. Send over your build code when you get a chance I wanna see what you have put together!
@@Lamborghini_Alex Will do. It’s a modest build focused on driving. I’d love to do little things like a special color for the tach and/or chrono, but I’m just a well paid Bay Area special procedure nurse. Build comes out to like 91k or so. I’ll send it over tonight. Thanks a lot.
Sounds like my kind of build. I look forward to seeing what you have come up with.
Is this vehicle still available?
This Macan S has found a new home. :) We can order you a custom if you want?
Porsche Macan T stands for Tutorial 👍😂
Jack you have a funny sense of humor
2024 Porsche Macan S does not have a cigarette lighter portal in the car. Their port o charge charger requires it. You can arrange for service to do it. Installation $500+ Porsche port o charger costs $215. I'm letting enthusiasts know only, and if, price matters.
It is there, just pull up the rubber piece in front of the cup holder.
Android or only Apple? BTW glare is fine👍
Yes, Apple only
Why should I buy this when I can't even walk in and buy a gt4rs?
Does it support Android Auto?
@@Lamborghini_Alex Thanks Alex. I've seen and heard different responses to that interestingly. Do you know if the Macan T will be any different? Wireless Apple and Wired Android?
Good evening Albert. I did some digging and Macan does not have android auto available yet according to the configurator at Porsche USA. We currently have it in other models not the Macan yet. Wireless apple carplay is the only Porsche native application available on Macan at the moment. Sorry to miss inform. Will delete last response.
Android auto is available on the macan?! Why was i told its not available in the macans?
Why not just recommend the AUTO AC?
Personally, I do not like the auto AC because I live in Texas. When you choose the auto AC, it sends the air out of the top, the bottom and the middle air vents. In Texas most people want the air right on the body. Most people in hotter climates set temp to Lo or 60 degrees. When this happens, the fan speed is full blast on auto AC.
The most unique quirk, escalators in a car dealership....
There's one in the dealer near me too. Two story dealership
And what if I use an android phone and will never use an Apple phone?
At the moment Porsche Macan does not have the android auto option. When Porsche was originally doing the research, we found that only 10% of our customers had androids. they just started incorporating android auto into Cayenne, Taycan and 911 for 2023. Im very sorry about this 🥲
Best to wait for the 2024 EV model folks ✅
Quite the opposite. 2024 model is the last brand new car that still feels like a Porsche...
Where is the phone charger? 🤔
There is a phone charger in the middle center console. it might be wireless if you added on the option or just plug-in.
10:05 this is the item you were looking for on your PORSCHE!
Al
2024 Porsche Macan S is not capable of syncing the rear and front wipers. Rear engages only in reverse or manually. You never realize or discover all the dead ends until you take possession of your new luxury auto. ➕️ there's only two portals for your cellphone. 😢😢😢 The radio can't be turned off, only muted. Ohh the agony.
Porsche, you could've done better with two things.
1ST. The Nav looks outdated
& 2nd. You should have an all digital screen for the drivers info. I.E speedometer, & RPM.
It's 2022... not 2017
That's not what most drivers want. We like analog
Gas cap? Exposed rear wiper? Analog plastic gauges? No push to start? No wireless CarPlay? Bruh this car is 5 years behind even the most basic of cars.
Write a comment to German engineers to put best feature for family that's the back seat reclined ok!!!
Noted thank you very much.
Glare, now that's an issue for ownership. Sorry officer I was distracted by the glare. Adaptive cruise control not standard? Really! Even ordinary cars have that. I don't go with the 'but this is a premium adaptive'. Volvo is always the innovator there, even Mercedes was behind them.
Thanks for the observation. The glare was due to the angle that I had the GoPro. From the normal driving situation the Glare is not as noticeable. We have never had a customer complain about glare of the thousands of Macan’s we have sold through my store. Also ACC is now standard on the Macan. It was an option in the past because not everyone like the robotic feeling of ACC. Most porsche drivers enjoy driving their car not putting them into cruise control. Good look with your Volvo my grand parents love theirs!
I wanted to love this car when I was looking to buy a new luxury car but... The seats suck soooooooo bad.
I mean when you spend $100k, you want seats that feel good. Especially since you will be getting in and out of the car and long drives. They are too narrow for a 200lbs man. Then there is an edge on the seat makes it hurt over time getting in and out of the car overtime. They have a wider option but then you still have the lips on the seat that just are uncomfortable.
Really just sad for this price. Because Hyundai has an option for the seats to adjust to grip you like the Porsche seats, but you can also relax the seats. When a $50k car can out comfort a $100k car, it just makes me realize how over priced these piece of craps luxury cars are. Oh and no hot/cold cup holders.
Never buying a Porsche again.
