Siberian Bushings

The larger question was how was your success with the Siberian Bushings. Yes, google knows everything except google is not very good on testimonials.

Siberian Bushing Type/Order

DogWood,
I communicated with Siberian bushing and they cross referenced the original Panamera part number to be the same as that for the Cayenne.

Yes the bushings will transfer more noise and vibration than rubber bushings (they even mention this on their website)- they also need to be greased regularly or they will squeak

I think that seller just protects himself about the noise... because these are made from soft polyurethane, and it is only 4 of them in the car, and in control arms, not in sub-frames ....
regarding greasing they has to be properly greased during installation, I can't imagine how you could grease them later .... I have other cars with all bushings from polyurethane,
never greased in 7 years - no squeak ...
https://www.powerflexusa.com/why-poly : "By correctly engineering the polyurethane compound, bushings can be made 25-30% stiffer than new rubber items but with exactly the same noise absorbing properties."
