Took the car to Bill @ Garage Autosports caused I wanted louder burbles. Lol

Biggest update STAGE 1 PDK Tune is done!! (Picture of hexdump while Bill was doing his thing) First impression on PDK:

Shifts feel alot smother and faster

Normal mode no longer takes its sweetime to down shift.

Sport+ feels fantastic.

Installwd the followong items:

Gauge rings, smoked sidemarkers 3stripe LED, Door hinge, latch and alarm covers , stick on paddle extensions Before After Before After Side markers

Bill diagnosed that i had a bad rear wheel bearing noise when we went out for lunch, so dropped the car off and had both rear wheel bearings & tcase fluid replaced by Garage autosports.

Dropping off and TT Huracan project the shop is working on
Picture of the old worn bearing.

Drained the catch can @ 2056kms. 4 ounces of fluid came out, going to wait till 4k for the next drain but so far the can may only have to be drained every oil change or 8000kms. Wash and wax with winters wheels still on

Thanks Bill at Garage Autosports for letting me use a spot in the shop to mount my all seasons.




Did the model designation delete & installed smoked Laminex rearside marker film @Teddis had laying around & he also gave me black Porsche badge.
Also coded the following


Boost gauge display increased to 3bar in normal and sport
Coolant gauge fixed to show real coolant Temps. Details from this link: https://rennlist.com/forums/991/1283139 ... e-fix.html
To correct this I copied the X2 - X8 values over to the corresponding Y2 - Y8 fields
Adaptive brake lights. Brakes lights flash if the car senses a deceleration rate of -81.gs to .71 gs deceleration.


*Brakes Lights are currently set to flash for 2 seconds but that will be reduced to 1 sec.

I don't know where to start with all that -- simply amazing and thank you so much for posting it here! I'll need to take some time to digest it, but can you explain more about the coding updates you did? Was that a DIY thing?


p.s., as stunning as the car and tech info is, those doggies stole the show, so I opted to make them honorary Macan Avatar Mascotts for the first week or so of the forum. When Carpokes is a million members strong and controlled by SkyNet, you can always remind folks about your special place in the forum's wee early days.

For anyone with Macan......even Cayenne....this is a comprehensive upgrade thread. There's more............

@tom lets not go to the dogs too quickly. Sorry @Teddis

Thanks for taking time to read through it all. Once you are done digesting let me know if you have more questions.

All the coding was done via DIY. I used piwis and Launch X431. As @Teddis said alot of the coding information from the Macan has been transfered over from the 958 Cayenne, but the same changes should be applicable on all PCars built after 2013 .


I'm ok with keeping the dogs as the official Macan section Avatar. I'll get my wife to take some pictures with the car in the background.
