I have a 2021 Macan. Have been experiencing an issue for a while when making a turn and changing lanes while accelerating there is a noticeable hesitation.
The dealer said it was the transfer box and installed a new one but that did not solve the issue. After bringing it back to the dealer, now they are telling me its normal for this year/model. Not buying it.
Has anyone experienced this issue and any suggestions.

 

If by "hesitation" you mean you press the gas pedal and there's a delay before the car responds, yes, it's "normal" and can be fixed with a throttle controller like Pedal Commander.

 

This a 2021 Base?

Does it hesitate when in Sport mode?

 

Thats correct, when I step on the accelerator, that is when the hesitation occurs.
No, it does not seem to happen in Sport mode only in Comfort.

 

Yes, Base model

 

As Wilder noted above, there is throttle lag in "normal" mode and a Pedal Commander or Sprint Booster unit will transform the throttle response. You'll be amazed at the difference these units make on the Macan.

 

As others have said that lag is in the throttle response programing. It can be "corrected" with a Pedal Commander unit but those devices just front load the throttle response. The true issue with the Base model is that Porsche hobbles it by not allowing the engine to produce as much horsepower as it's capable of. That way it doesn't compete with the more expensive S model. That same 2.0L Macan engine puts out 300+HP in other VW cars. For a little bit more money than a Pedal Commander you can buy a simple plug in tuner box which rectifies the throttle response situation by actually giving the engine more power. Completely transforms the car. With the box installed on my Base it is as quick as my Macan S.
