Apparently a well know issue on most Macan models. Simple issue becomes very expensive to fix because the engine needs to be removed in order to access and replace defective bolts. Porsche replaced the top 3 bolts as they can accessed easily, but refused to replace the rest of the defective bolts. Aluminum bolts stretched when they were torked...this causes a loose fit and allows oil to leak out.
