What Happened
The fuel pump service cover on your Macan is a critical part that helps prevent fuel leaks. In some 2015-2018 models, it might touch the fuel filter, causing cracks and potentially leading to a leak.
Risk if Unfixed
If fuel leaks and there's an ignition source, like a spark from an engine or a hot exhaust component, it could start a fire.
Free Fix
Your authorized Porsche dealer will inspect and repair or replace the fuel pump flange to prevent leaks, and apply a protective film to prevent future issues – all at no cost to you.
