Wow, you guys are fearless! Would love to see a how-to on cloning (replacing) the hard drive with solid state. Porsche doesn't still use a HDD do they??

What's the latest from the Macan group? My daily driver is aging out and I need inspiration :)

Once in a while, my 2008 Cayman smokes upon starting. Smoke goes away immediately. Oil level never changes but the accuracy of the oil level gauge is in question.

Sorry for disappearing everyone. It's been a busy few months at work.

@Teddis & I installed 034 motorsport diverter valves as my stock ones had failed(car was only making 15psi of boost at WOT). Thanks to @GASBill for letting us use a hoist at his shop.

Just now reading through all your posts going back to April. Thanks for sharing the many things you've done (and how you've done them) as your project progressed. I've said it many times already, but will do so again: I'm very impressed by the skills of what many here have done and continue to do.

Love the dogs too! They are always welcome.

wow this thread is amazing. i am a mod junkie and all the things done here speak to me.

can you elaborate on how you did this?

- Added mirror retract on Lock to MFD

i had googled mirror retract and seem to recall everyone saying the option wasn't present on north american cars. i went through 8 pages on the macan forum thread and never saw anything on adding it back via coding. i know there is the niche module but would rather not buy that.

also, how did you accomplish g-force display in the MFD?
