2018 Porsche Panamera 4S problem
Hello,
Just curious if anyone has come across this same issue. Although I am being very nitpicky there is a small squeak noise that comes from the back right tire (I think but could be anywhere in the rear). It usually occurs between 40-60 MPH while releasing the accelerator. It isn't an overly loud noise but certainly noticeable when the radio is off. As the tires warm it seems to happen a bit more often and I am usually able to recreate the noise on demand.
2018 Panamera 4s approx. 400 miles
Pirelli P Zero tires
Thanks!!!!!!!

I also have the same chirping noise from the rear when the car upshift. I think it's the transmission, the 8 speed pdk is a nightmare. It's jerky and shifts slower then the rental macan or even the rental a4, c300.

Ok, noise is coming from rear cover nor seated. Remove, go for a drive. Squeak gone? As for,the PDK, i have zero issues. But I drive hard, so I have had milles. In sport or sport plus, yes the down shifts will bump, normal should not. Pound on that 4S, I bet those issues go away. I drive my father S550, and the PDK in normal is just as good in slow mode. 37mph in 5th? never felt it.

I have a 2017 Panamera 4S, no squeak noise.... however I have a real issue with a loud fuel injector noice coming from behind the dash. It starts at 1800 rpm and doesn't go away. Also the PDK is rally jerky. I have 8000 miles on the car and the dealer is now telling me this is normal.... Its horrible I would never buy this car.... in fact I'm going to dump it and get something else!!!! No help from Porsche, I called them and they are telling me this is normal.... for a $125k car this is stupid!

I agree that is not normal. I drove a 2016 dec production 4S, no issues with PDK, mine is 2017 March, no issues. But i have heard similar isssues with later 2017 and 2018, 4S and Turbo. I did test drive a new 18 Turbo, no issues. But i have spoken to techs and problem has been repeated. A few had reprogrammig of the PDK. I would reach our to PCNA, as i wouuld be going nuts also.
