  1. Engine and Technical Discussion
    Hey everybody! Not sure if I’m in the right place, but I need a little help. I purchased a 2020 Macan S about a month ago, and I’m finally getting around to the 40,000 mile service. I wasn’t sure if it had been done, so I figured I’d start from zero and make sure everything was good. I did...

  2. Engine and Technical Discussion
    Sitting in a rare traffic jam the other day, I wondered if slipping the PDK into neutral when stopped helps prolong the life of the unit. Since the car creeps without using the accelerator when I step off the brake, I figure there's gotta be some tension/pressure in the drivetrain when stopped...

    I just picked up a used 2017 Macan S and found these bits in the internal PDK filter. Any ideas? It almost looks like formica or something

    I was trying to collect all part numbers for upcoming drivetrain maintenance and faced lack of single source with all required parts. This post is the result of collecting/organizing data from multiple forums/videos (including this one:)). Feel free to suggest additions or corrections :)...

    I had been driving a 2017 Macan S and just test drove a 2024 Macan S. I found the PDK may have been "faster" but lacked that amazing double clutch 'buh-boom' feeling and sound. It was SO disappointing, as was the engine feel. Perhaps less turbo lag, but you didn't get that jet engine...

    There is a recent thread started related to problems associated with PDK and ECU tunes . . . not sure why, but the thread was closed? I wanted to follow-up on the topic. Here is what I WILL say about the PDK, at least, in my 23’ GTS . . . Automatic mode is perfectly fine and what I utilize...

    Hello all, So I've spent the last couple of months researching the Macan's PDK, and as has already been discussed, it does appear to be the truth that the Macan's transmission is nothing more than the Audi 7-Speed 0B5 DSG DL501. As I know I'm not the only one who has explicitly requested...

    Hi all, I’m facing quite a problematic issue with the PDK gearbox in a Porsche Macan Turbo 3.6L The problem: Jerky/ jolting forward motion on each even gear selection. This happens in automatic mode and manual. Jolt/ jerk on reverse, also a slight delay before car starts to reverse. The...

    Another PorscheDiY PDK Clutch Calibration - 2015 Porsche Macan S I’ll be performing a periodic calibration of the PDK going forward. It is required that PDK fluid is changed for calibration. Hence, I’ll be performing this PDK clutch calibration after a fluid change. Although I’ll be...
  10. Complaints 🤬
    Our Macan is now sitting in the driveway, useless. As we have been reporting to the dealer for the last 8,000 miles, there's been a clunking sound that sounded like either something with the rear end or transmission. Over the last month, it has become more pronounced. The sound first appeared...

    This video describes my DIY process for changing gearbox/front axle compartment oil of the PDK transmission. This is not the PDK clutch oil change. Disclaimer: This is a DIY on my own Porsche Macan S. This video only serves as an illustration of my own experience performing DIY maintenance...

    I have a beautiful 2018 Macan 2.0 for almost 6 months right now and I bought it with the Porsche approved warranty for 1 year. It has done roughly 65.000 km (40.000 miles) and I got a problem with it. When I drive normally and the car shifts back to its second gear and I accelerate normally the...

    I will be installing the Stage1 91 COBB tune on my 2015 Macan S in the coming days. I would also like to perform a PDK Reset (see below) to train the auto-shift points more to my liking. Based on everyone's experience, what method should I follow? If such a method even exists :unsure: #1 PDK...
