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.

Perhaps look at Rear Electronics, Dimming TFL as Marker Light (or Boundary Light)? Trying setting it to 100% and see what happens.
This would be the PIWIS manual coding without rules equivalent.

Direct answer: No, and I can't find anything in Front, or Rear, electronics to shut those off.
Indierct answer: the lights appear red to me (I am a little color blind), as opposed to the amber front makers. Do euro laws forbid the red markers, too?
And just to make sure - it's these lights circled in orange you're talking about?

Yes, those are the lights
...We have yellow/orange turnlights here in Europe, the color is mandatory. Imported cars from the US, which will be registered with EU licence plate, need those. My Macan has integrated them in the front apron, below the lights, in the mirrors and in the main rear light band. These low rear lights from the above pic are split into a white part, for reverse drive and red for sthg I didn´t check out so far. My car has rear fog lights, could be, that they are integrated in there...

In Poland have been told that side reflectors yes, but lights in reflectors no unless the vehicle is over 2.1m wide.

Hmmm. The side lights in the rear are definitely red lights within a red reflector (the reflector that goes all the way around the lower part of the rear bumper).
I did talk to my local service advisor this week about coding options. He said that even though they have the new PIWIS, which limits what they can do, they can still code a car for another country. It takes a lot of work, though, as they have to involve PCNA and literally wear a set of special glasses/googles. PCNA unlocks certain features in PIWIS temporarily, and PCNA guides/watches exactly what work is performed In PIWIS.
Just picked up an x431 Pro mini. I've read through this thread and was able to code most things I wanted.
For the level control, it sounds like I should do the measurements in "normal" mode, not "low". Are you doing 25 mm in normal mode, then get 10mm more when you turn on "low" mode. Or are you doing 15mm in normal, then getting the additional 10mm hitting the low mode button?

Well, maybe then I wait until the car gets to Europe and do it then. No reason for P to ask questions and make the process difficult.

mine too was set to 6% changing to 100 didn't seem to do anything at least not what was desired.
Coming back to the automatic door re-lock feature, which is the time setting when doors are locked, previously using the fob to unlock, but when no door was opened. In the master table the item was related to the instrument cluster (in mine set to 60s for whatever reason).
In the '23 Macan this is not the right place to change the default 30s to a desired higher value or to switch this feature off completely.
- Would have been my favorite, anybody have an idea how to???
Anyway the place to increase that time is located in the front end module.
Searching for relock yields the right entry, initially set to 30s. A max. of 255s can be set here, I've set 240s (4mins) which is better than nothing for my purposes...

Did you ever figure this out? I'm unable to find the "dd lights as marker" anywhere. Thanks

Still no December update as promised by the launch team so that's disappointing
...Besides waiting for a new Launch version for P,
I stumbled over an annoying PCM SDcard player feature which is auto-album-repeat. This is set active, every time one plays a new album, if not deactivated manually every time.
Looking for corresponding control options in my Launch, I didn't find a particular key to switch it to off as default, but there are many anonymous ones...
- Anybody out there, who did some PCM parametrisation and stumbled over it (especially in PIWIS)???

Anything specific we're waiting for in the new version of software for the Launch?

Supposed to be the ability to program the sport exhaust button on the console and open and close tailgate with fob but launch china missed their December release and didn't produce.
...desparetely waiting for working start/stop button memory activation...EU version doesn´t have it...or look for s. o. with a PIWIS or Autel...
