Re: Macan Turbo Gen 11

Re: Gen 2 - iPhone connection question - Voice control

My gen 2 works perfectly with wireless connection. The only reason I might connect with a cable is to charge the phone if the battery is low.

Press the front (or rear) defrost button and this automatically activates the heated windscreen foil. After 10 mins, the foil switches off, even if the defrost button is still activated.

Re: Replacement rear wiper cost at OPC

Bought a replacement rear blade 18 months in from Tewkesbury and they fitted for free. It’s a 30 second job.
