From the beginning these problems with my Macan S, 340hp. Drive a lot of city - and agglomeration traffic Zurich area max. 20 - 50 Km / h and am not satisfied with these early upshift cycles in any way; must constantly manually downshift 2 gears or drive in sports mode. Imagine: in 6th gear in column traffic at 50 Km/h up the hill. I wonder where Porsche has tested this SW update (possibly at free ride on Ueberland)!?

After the update, several people will probably be driving in sport mode, which would have achieved exactly the opposite of what was intended.
That's politics; especially European politics.

somehow i was afraid that the update would bring more disadvantages. 
i have not had the update installed yet, and actually planned to have that done with the next inspection in the spring. however, when i read this, i don't have a good feeling about it...
to collect more experiences here, I would find top.
in the end, however, the update will probably be without alternative; according to the recall database of the kba, it is a monitored recall:

I cannot confirm this. Different shift points yes, but consumption has rather gone down. I do not notice any negative points in my driving profile.

Lets hope that chip tuners will soon have the new data of this engine and transmission control at hand!
I am totally annoyed by this update and the current driving behavior, especially since I bought a different car than what it is now.

I'll bring up this thread again; maybe there is still one or the other undecided; especially since I had already criticized here BEFORE installing the software update.
in the meantime, i had the update installed in connection with an upcoming service appointment. my experience is also that it now shifts up slightly "earlier"; at the same time, however, it also reacts more sensitively to the gas pedal position; so if i accelerate more energetically, it also turns the gears correspondingly higher (which of course was already the case before; but now it is more significant). i personally find the tuning good; cruising in city traffic at 1,200 revs is relaxed. since the s also has sufficient power from below, it runs confidently.
consumption may have dropped slightly; in city traffic we're talking about 0.2 l - 0.4 l/100km.
as already described in the thread, sailing via the paddles is still possible. to be honest, i didn't know that at all before you pointed it out in this thread.

I have since switched to a Macan built in 2019. I don't think it's affected at all.
I noticed that this develops much more pressure / torque in the lower speeds, that the early upshift is not so annoying.
At 50 Km/h in 6th gear, however, I still find alienating and I usually still correct with the paddles.
In Sport mode it actually goes.
