Hi folks,

Recently joined the l405 club, I’ve always wanted/aspired to own one, and my god I adore it.

However, 2 things are bugging me and with my inexperience with this car, I would welcome your input:

1) Ride quality - on the motorway I’ve never experienced anything like it, the comfort, quietness of the cabin etc is astounding. However, on an A/B road, a small bump clearly unsettles the car creating quite a jiggle/reverberation.

I did see a comment on another thread suggesting this could be a result of the dynamic suspension but given all I’ve read of market leading ride, I wanted to validate

Lastly, I’ve noticed some side to side variation in terrain can cause it to almost wobble side to side?

2) Tickety tickety tickety noises….from the 4.4 behind the drivers side wheel near the bulk head. Is this normal or (think of it like loud injectors)?

Overall I’m incredibly happy with the car but would very much appreciate your guidance

Cheers
Chris

I won’t be changing wheels, I love the ones on there tbh. I noticed towing today that it really dives into bends, I’m sure something is up.

Clickety noises are when running and from the outside drivers side so don’t think it’s relays tbh, it’s an engine noise
