Maybe download the ‘Good to know’ app and you may find answers there?

There's a screen that allows you select which info to display with a series of checkboxes, I added boost pressure a month or two ago, without going out in the cold and wet to be sure I'm not confident but try pressing the selector switch when the vehicle info screen is displayed. If that doesn't take you into it's settings them it must be elsewhere in the PCM settings.

Hi,I’ve had the menu list up but oil pressure doesn’t seem to be there, but it was on the right hand screen below coolant and oil temperatures it’s a real puzzler 👍

I think you have to scroll on the wheel to show all options. I will check next time I go to my Macan

I had the same problem a few years ago on my Macan when I had had it for just a few weeks. Took it back to OPC and they were flummoxed as well. If I remember correctly it was cured by a factory re set - which you can do yourself, it is in the menu somewhere accessed via the scroller on the steering wheel.

Scroll through to VEHICLE press, SETTINGS press, DISPLAY press, VEHICLE MENU press. Then set the four lines to whatever you want.

The only problem is oil pressure is not on my vehicle menu, my wife’s key has seemed to have restored the screen again and the car is back to the way it was can’t understand why but there’s no oil pressure to pick on the list?

Hi Oscar2, d
Did you find a way to resolve. I’m having the same issue with my new Macan. I added Battery Voltage to the display and lost Oil Pressure in 3rd line. Now Oil Pressure isn’t shown as a selectable option. I’d rather not do a factory reset yet …
Cheers
Chris
