Have the Oil Leak Problems been resolved in the 2021- Macans?
I have not seen any reports of issues on model 2019 and later v6's with the "Audi" rather than "Porsche" engines
2019 Macan S Porsche code PKW8WKI8
Yes the change from 3.0 engines to 2.9 should have resolved the problem (a least one would have hoped). Local PC was doing one per week; fastening bolts over tightened in the factory causing them to break and therefore the gasket not sealing properly. Timing chain cover if I remember correctlyNelladrahcir wrote: ↑Wed Dec 29, 2021 3:00 pmThey would be completely different engines back pre 2019.

2.0 (4 cylinders) is a Golf engine. One should go to Golf forums to know its problems.
2.9 (6 cylinders) is an Audi engine. It has oil leaks in a lot of places, not only the timing change. again, Audi forums can be of help.
3.0 (6 cylinders) and 3.6 (6 cylinders) are Porsche engines. Some of them might have a leak on the timing chain cover. In all these years, there is no report of any broken engine because of this. For more info:
