Umm...the Macan is extremely boring. Porsche in name and badge only. 😂

No offence to badge wh...umm... "fans". 

(I know for a fact @Sp4wn isn't one of these haha).

Really sorry to hear of your issues with your Macan. Seems like your issues can’t be resolved even by the AD tech and mech.  Could indeed be a lemon ex-factory.

Have the issues ever been brought up to PAP….not the Party but Porsche Asia Pacific? They have a full setup here including Aftersales Support. Why not send a polite letter to them, cc the AD. Tell them you are giving them a chance and you are using your own name to write the letter. If they do not respond to you in 2 weeks, you will spend some money, get a professional to lodge an official complaint and this time, you will also cc PAG, VAG CEO. 
 

Try it….

$242 can buy a brand new battery liao 😂

AGM battery should be at least $350 - 4xx🤔

@shrjun oh….didn’t read the full thread….obviously. TLdr.

Perhaps with time, and the issues remains unresolved, it’s justified to demand more drastic actions, including buy-back or a new car altogether. If I’m in TS’s shoes, I’ll ask them to get me the latest Macan with exact specs as mine, nothing less. 
 

if I remember correctly….even RR customers have issues so dealing with such complaints is nothing new to Eurokars. It even went to the Courts here in Sg but I think customer lost to AD and Manufacturer.

after diagnostic, they said its the battery. previously changed feb 2020, but seems all the erratic behaviour is due to an almost dead battery.

funny thing is, the dashboard says it has 14.4v, when i brought in, they said their machine says the voltage is 11.8v hence why its erratic. (they were able to verify as well, some stuff not working as it should). but seems the vehicle voltage thats generated / displayed doesnt seem to be accurate? i got no warning of a low battery ... only that the electronics go bonkers (unless thats the official porsche signal .. when ur electronics go bonkers ... it means battery kaput 😂)

now awaiting them to decide if change or leave there for 1 day to "charge" the battery ...

still waiting on that vehicular exorcism @RadX

Tbh every car that I have driven, the vehicle is never able to warn me that the batt is going kaput. It only hit me there is a problem when the electronics go haywire... 

Add-on: $1400 is daylight robbery+ harvesting your organs/blood

yes some bros who have taken legal action against SA have told me the same. they will fight a bit, but in the end give in, but subj to p&c settlement it seems. i did seek lawyer advice, but generally speaking, this is a high court matter since the value is above $250k, meaning legal fees is not worth it, unless you're buying a top of the line 911 instead of a base macan. such is life!

strange, even my dads old mercs will show a warning light at the very least. but have not driven a merc in the last decade almost to know if its the same. maybe back then less electronics? my gtr also able to tell me previously when battery gonna kaput. and def didnt cost more than 300-400 to change back then i think. or max $500?

And maybe just wash the tumbler everyday instead of letting it become so disgusting?

She said glass will becum translucent.... Better don't rub it in. 

Maybe 5th use is for paintwork. Better than ceramic coating.
