Hi all.

I get this strange sound from the front end of my panamera 4S from 2010. It's mostly pronounced when I'm driving on bumpy roads. What's even more strange, is that I'm getting it even when I'm standing still from time to time. I get it through all driving modes; Comfort, sport, sport plus - you name it!

Please help a fustrated Panamera owner!

Here is a link of the sound:

Top mounts perhaps? Is your steering a little notchy too?

Phew. I really hope not. Would the sound still appear with a fault like that when the car is stationary?

Hi there is a technical bulletin on something similar.
The camber and lower arm nuts come slightly loose,need retighting to correct torque.

I had one in about 2 months ago,even front subframe bolts were quite loose.

Hi CT, yes the noise on your video is very similar to the car i had.

The rear bolts on the front subframe moved over 1/2 a turn, has not comeback since.
