little rattle in the dash
 

I own a Panamera 4S 2011 and there la little annoying rattle in the left side of the dash (around the key knob), like a vibration on uneven roads. Does anyone had that problem or could help?
Thanks.

Count me in... Nothing that SIRIUS does not fix, but still annoying.

I've had some door rattles and one from the glove compartment/cup holders fixed under warranty.

It's pretty solid now, but I get something like a vibration sound up the door when going over lane markers on the side that the wheels hitting the markers are on.

I tried the car over really rough roads on Sport+ suspension and the car was completely quiet. So I think the marker noise may be more resonance than a rattle.

my right rear roll up privacy screen kreaky sounds once in a while, I just roll it up and down to get rid of it.

Sometimes it's the little piece of plastic on the bottom side of the steering column and it gets better when I push and hold it. Other times I can't quite figure out but there's a rattle that comes and goes, related to ambient temperature changes.

Mee too
 

My rattle / knock seems to come from the center of the dashboard, deep in like it is coming from the firewall. Seems tied to engine vibration but I do not hear it other than at idle. It is mostly intermittent so it is hard to prove to the dealer.

Plastic bottles in the center cupholder were driving me crazy. The plastic ring left behind on the bottle vibrates with cap off and sounds like it could be coming from anywhere.


As an aside, I'm making a mahogany lid for that cupholder to match wood interior.

Same here...mine is the top cover of the steering column. I push it and it goes away...comes back periodically so push it and it goes away again.

reviving this thread.....I have the same annoying sound/rattle coming from the dash of my 2011 Panamera 4. Any solutions?

I've had this same problem in my Cayenne GTS, my 991S and my Macan Turbo. This is a universal problem with all Porsches.

The dash unit is mounted into the assembly frame with washers & screws. They use an automated screwdriver set to a specific torque so they don't over-tighten & crack the dash unit body.

Unfortunately, in certain temperature and /or humidity conditions there is shrinkage/expansion of something and the screw is not tight enough.

Might the sound you are hearing be from a washer that's buzzing against its screw? That's what mine were.
