Default Power Steering Plus?

Have a Macan base loaner at the moment and, while the 2.0l engine is a bit underwhelming, I do like the car overall.

One question, though. Power steering plus; can it be disabled or adjusted? When I slow down the steering feels so damn sloppy and almost distracting from the task at hand (parking or whatever).

AFAIK, power steering plus offers no adjustments/driver selectable settings. My Macan GTS has it as standard, and there’s no settings I’m aware of.

I see that suncoast sells the software for power steering plus which is programmed into car provided you give them vin no. Installing must be done by a Porsche dealer as mentioned on suncoast. Uninstalling it u may want to ask if that can be done since it's a software mod. Just my 2 cents.

Yes, it can be programmed off. But on a Macan you are going to want it turned back on unless you want to two-hand the steering wheel in parking lots.
