2025 Porsche Macan — rear tires are disappearing faster than expected — Northern Virginia owner question

RustBeltTraveler721Community StarterJun 2, 20262025 Porsche Macan Electric 4SNorthern Virginia
The car is aligned and pressures are correct, but rear tire life is much shorter than my previous gas cars. Has rotation strategy, tire choice or driving style made the biggest difference?

Don't clear the alert just to make the screen pretty. Leave the alerts on the 2025 Porsche Macan so service can see what you saw. Then you'll know the next fork. That's the sequence I'd use. I'd rather pay for diagnosis than a second guess-repair.

Charge curves lie if you don't match starting SOC and temp. Match starting SOC and battery temp if you're comparing 2025 Porsche Macan charge sessions. Then you'll know the next fork. Post the numbers (or the code) and people can get more specific. That's my plan before I call anyone.

I'd treat 12V warnings as a no-ignore. On the 2025 Porsche Macan, I'd get the 12V/DC-DC side checked even if the traction pack looks fine. I'd do that before spending real money. On “rear tires are disappearing faster than expected,” that was the fork that mattered for me. Have you gotten a second quote in writing? Happens in gear, not in park, for what that's worth.

Low-voltage gremlins will strand you even with a full pack. Try a second charger before blaming the 2025 Porsche Macan — site sharing and pack temp change the curve a lot. That's where I'd start. This is from a 2025 Porsche Macan in Northern Virginia. If they can't show the line item, I assume it's hiding. I'd rather look cautious in this thread than stuck later.

Same neighborhood, different next step: On the 2025 Porsche Macan, I'd get the 12V/DC-DC side checked even if the traction pack looks fine. I'd do that before spending real money. On “rear tires are disappearing faster than expected,” that was the fork that mattered for me. Happy to compare notes if your setup is different. I'd rather pay for diagnosis than a second guess-repair.

It did rear tires are disappearing faster than expected twice this week, both times after sitting. No change in mileage feel. Checking again after work.
