I recently picked up a Panamera Turbo, and noticed an odd behavior.
While driving at a steady speed, I can see the tach needle fluttering a bit. Maybe 25-50 rpm, so not a lot of movement.
I can't imagine this is completely normal, any ideas what's going on before I take the car to the dealer?

What year is your turbo?

We have found our 2018 Panamera doing some weird electronic things.

Haven’t noticed what you describe - but it does “surge” at low speeds, like backing into or pulling out of a parking space. Gotta be really careful as we don’t want the car to “surge” into something unexpectedly.

Mine is a 2011.
It's just the tach needle that I see bouncing while at steady speed, the car does not change speed, and there is no jerking, lurching, or any other strange behavior.

I'll update after I have a dealer look at it.

Thanks

Ours is also doing weird stuff like when we close the trunk (using the button) it stops half way down for no reason. Yesterday it stopped 1/2 way, and then I re-pressed the button and it stopped again about 6” from closing. So I had to open trunk and try again. Second time it closed no issue. The problem is intermittent.

Also sometimes when we turn the dash “key” everything lights up but it doesn’t start. Have to turn the key again. Intermittent problem.

Hubby programmed the “diamond” button as the start/stop defeat - but sometimes even after we press the button to turn off stop/start - the car turns off anyway. Intermittent.

There seem to be electronic gremlins and we are hoping it’s simply a matter of doing an update or refresh. We won’t be bringing it in until March but I’ll report back once they (hopefully) figure it out. We are actually making a LIST of things for them to address as there are several more weird happenings and we figure we won’t remember everything especially since it’s intermittent.

We had a 2015 GTS and it had none of these issues. And was the best sounding car EVER!

in our case the brake pedal is depressed and accessories go on but otherwise silent. Have to turn off and it always starts 2nd try. Did it to me again today on a cold start but then fired up right away about 4 hours later when I was leaving the event.

Today it decided to stop folding in the mirrors when we lock the car.

Hubby has it configured to always fold in mirrors when locking. Three times in a row we locked the car and mirrors stay out. Twice after unlocking, and another time after we were at a new destination.

Called the dealer. They are making a list. And the trunk did the funky thing stopping half way down again for no reason.

We like the car and hope these gremlins are a matter of a software update or re-boot or something simple.

I mean the button on the trunk itself at the rear liftgate. In our case it stops half way whether using the close/lock button or the close button.
