Have bought a new car Macan, and I heard a friend say to brush some Porsche hidden functions, using the Porsche engineers version of the computer brush out, which a friend can help me brush out, computer engineer, who can brush out, please contact me, and I will thank you to the way you like.
Mr xiaotoan
What was coding status?
Go to overview->Additional menu (F7) -> Maintenance of vehicle data -> check that everything is selected according to your hardware
Select control units that you touched -> automatic coding, if some blocks failed, you can try code them separately via automatic/manual coding
Make sure that battery is fully charged or connect battery charger, some coding will fail with engine running

Using PIWIS there is always some level of risk.
You can make modifications or you can "brick" your Macan.
If you don't know what you are doing, the level of risk rises substantially!
Good luck!

Ok so - I make auto-coding on every infected separate module. Now, because it's from us and I don't have side marks anymore I need to code it out. To be honest - it can wait now.
Still I'm thinking could I code there Dynamic High Beam or not. There are US PDLS+ but without Dynamic HB and without intersection light mode.

It works for me but I got black gts style xenon headlightsMe again. Im searching for option to switch off Side/Marking lights. My front bumper is from EU spec so I have now error of front marking light on desk.
Which option need to be changed?
In simulation mode I found: Coding value: Aussenbelechtung Seitenmarkierungsleuchten verbaut -> when I change only this option it will be OK or is there anything more?

im also looking for this too. havent been able to find out where to turn this sidemarker off completely
has anyone been successful in coding the Remote to close the rear deck lid/trunk/hatch? Ive followd the previous posted instructions:
rear lid; enable acoustic close via fob. Enable comfort closing. boot close with fob - enable touch or one touch option.
but the first portion eludes me. unable to find Enable acoustic close via fob.
I do have a warning list... but doesnt seem to do the trick.

if you have a 2022+ macan, and your centre console is with the haptic buttons and if you dont have all the haptic functinos activated and would like to see a full button activation. you can do it within PIWIS or AUTEL or MU CAR.
Before:

After:
![Image]()
to do this:
in PIWIS or AUTEL or MU Car:
Go into Sytems and go to Air Conditioning:
![Image]()
If you go into Tastes,you will see options for haptic buttons to light up.
![Image]()
you assign the non assigned tastes.. to corresponding missing button functions.
I assigned:
Lift= air suspension
AGA = PSE
M = unknown.. i assigned this to Taste 6... but it didnt light up anything.. I imagine it means manual for something.. but what .. no clue.
If you go to the right side "Rechts"
![Image]()
I assigned Ionisator and PLA. which lit up the Ion button and Parking Assist buttons.
hope this helps and if anyone figures out what M does.. woudl love to know ahah.

Coolant Temperature Characteristic Curve
I have modified the coolant temperature characteristic curve in my Macan a few months back maybe a year ago), and just did it in my Cayman as well. It is interesting how Porsche is modifying the actual values you see, probably to decrease variability in the display and avoid having unnecessary calls from customers that don’t know what’s going on. But I have to think that for a 718 or 911, having modified display temp values is completely unnecessary. I wasn’t surprised to see this in my Macan, fine, I just modified it.
The location for the characteristic curve values is here…
Instrument Cluster: Coolant temperature characteristic curve
You will see all real and displayed values (8 for each). See table below (in C):
![Font Number Pattern Circle Rectangle]( "Font Number Pattern Circle Rectangle")
I plotted this table, shown below, so that you can see the behavior.
![Slope Rectangle Plot Parallel Font]( "Slope Rectangle Plot Parallel Font")
If you follow the green line (displayed values in cluster), there is a long period of time where you will see a constant temperature, when in reality the temperature is higher. Then, once out of that range, it will shoot up really quick to catch up with real temperature value (blue line)… that may not give much response time if your car is overheating. That orange zone is what you would need to pay attention to.
This curve was designed for the temperature to remain steady during normal operation mode, but it will in fact introduce hysteresis in the values you are seeing.
Displaying actual temperature values makes common sense.
To display actual values in the instrument cluster, copy the respective X value into the Y value.
I recommend you write down all values first (so that you can have them as backup), then change all Y values.
I also changed the bargraph range to display the full temperature range starting at 36C… default is 60C.
Code:
Instrument cluster: Bargraph settings: Bargraph settings-coolant temperature bargraph start = 36 {default = 60}

What scan tool has everyone been using to make the changes? How do you feel about the Launch X431 Pros Elite?
I want to open this thread by thanking everyone who has put the effort and knowledge into the Encodable Features thread. This forum is only valuable because of contributors like yourselves - thank you very much!
I have a few questions I'd like to open with:
1. I have successfully added PDLS+ (using PIWIS3 on my Macan S) all seems to work fine. Is there any height calibrations I should perform to ensure optimal configuration?
2. Intersection lighting - I noticed when I used PIWIS3 for the PDLS+ upgrade that it also disabled intersection lighting. If I enable this again (using either my X431 or PIWIS) will that also cause any issues with the PDLS+? My assumption is that this WOULD be enabled, just not in the US market and PIWIS did ask what market I was in during coding. I have manually enabled intersection lighting with my X431, but havent driven at night to see if this will work/cause issues.
3. Corner lighting - Could someone please clarify the various options pertaining to "static" corner lighting? Is this simply saying "When you turn the wheel, it will illuminate"? Does this interfere with intersection lighting? I assume this uses the same lamps that intersection lighting does.
3a. Is there static and dynamic options and can they be enabled in coding simultaneously?
4. Headlamps pointing into turns - Is this feature pretty subtle? I cannot tell if this is actually functioning on my Macan. Are there parameters to set the sensitivity of this? Is there a codable setting to enable/disable this?
5. Please see the image below. I want to ensure I have the utmost understanding to make sure I am not asking infuriating questions here to respect everyones time. My understanding is as follows: A -This is the "corner lightinng" and also potentially the Intersection lighing bulb which appears to be a standard halogen. B- these are the four Daylight Running LEDs. C - this appears to be the main beam, maybe both the "low" and "high" beam that is just aimed according to needs. D - I do not recall ever seeing this illuminated on my Macan, can someone provide clarification here?

1. Auto High beam works with front camera, if there are no errors about calibration then it should be ok
2. If I remember correctly Intersection lighting was introduced in first restyle, not sure if it can be enabled on first gen, I suppose it uses PCM maps to understand where intersection is
4. For me it's noticeable, but only on really dark road, probably xenon lens turning angle is not very big
5. Everything is correct - C is used for both high and low beam, D is just a dummy lens

New topic, did anybody activate the ionizer in the A/C cluster?
Could activate the ionizer module in the A/C module config and in right buttons w Launch, even though I didn't order it.
It shows HW V00 and SW V000, but doesn't throw any fault messages when activated.
No active measurement values changing during testing. No different smell when activated...

- Is it installed or not?
- Did anybody spot it in the Macan?
- High voltage cabling and control/supply cables existant when not ordered?
Probably true, I found this HV Generator Module (Ionizer; 4N0963459E). It is used in several Porsche and Audi models and should also be installed in the Macan, but is completely unknown in the corresponding Macan parts catalog and repair manual as well as in web catalogs like ilcats...same for (2?) HV-cables to connect to the A/C air box ionizer electrodes...maybe it comes in a bundle with the A/C air box?
...The tempting thing is the low price of this module, starting from 50-80 bucks...
...The tempting thing is the low price of this module, starting from 50-80 bucks...
Yeah, the older models need a different button block with the right keys (awful lot of versions, for right and left).
The newer ones have this universal touch panel. Not used keys are simply not visible due to missing illumination, but this can be activated, as well as the switch function itself, as I temporarly did to try out Ionization...but that works also for non-installed functions...
- Still needed is an updated parts list covering models from 2019 onwards!!!
(To activate the Ionizer there are some nitty gritty components necessary, like high voltage cables, eventually Ionizer-heads for both vent sides and the high voltage module mentioned above. With the right parts numbers one look out for inexpensive spares...

Hi all, sorry I have gone thru 27 pages of info here and trying to compile something for myself to enable high beam assist/pdls+ on a 2020 Macan with piwis.
Currently car has PR code 8G0 (without light assist) and I have 2 options, 8G1 and 8G2.
The headlights are 8IT - LED headlamps.
I was hoping these headlamps will meet the requirement to enable it.
Question is, do I enable 8G1 or 8G2 and then just autocode the front camera, kombi, pcm and bcm1?
Thank you

Thanks all, bought the regular Otofix D1 and was able to enable Sport Plus in my non Sport Plus car, through the joker button, including launch control. Also automatic mirrors folding in, and opening and closing windows through the remote control.
