Check the standard 60k items. Fluid changes, spark plugs, and, of course, the brakes. Doing all three will set you back about $5k. Keep that figure in mind on the purchase price. If they are all done, then you are golden but most folks trading in a Panamera with that mileage are avoiding something.

60,000 miles isn't horrible. I would just be that much more picky about checking everything on the car. 60,000 miles is a major service time, diffs, tranny, brake fluids, spark plugs if there are not records of anything previously. Also check the brakes and pads. Negotiate it all as part of the purchase even at a steep discount otherwise that's all $2000 worth of service not counting the brakes. Get what you can on the service history which should be easy if its a true CPO.

Electronic fuel pump control replacement, suspension bushing (creaking noise over bumps) Cam bolt recall. Coil packs go bad.
Most common issues on 10-12 model yrs.

IMO 60k is not that much.

2013 to 2018 is 5 years. 60k divided by 5 = 12k per year. Normal.

If you are interested, I would check:

• coolant epoxy is either redone or fixed by doing the drill hole with bolt (original coolant pipe under intake is epoxied to metal as opposed to affixed)
• check tires for wear
• Check if air filter was replaced. If not, needs replacement at 60k.
• check suspension for squeaking/clunking when going over bumps.
  • if noises there, check upper and lower control arms
• Check front air shocks for leaking (spray soap water onto top of shocks under hood - if leaks, you will see small bubbles form)
  • If leaks are there, shocks need replacement, cannot repair
• Check air compressor for abnormal noises
• Check if spark plugs replaced recently. If not, need done at 40k
• Check if spark plug coils replaced recently. If not, need done at 40k
• Check if PDCC reservoir replaced at 60k. If not, needs replacement with fluid at 60k
• Check if PDK fluid changed. If not, needs replacement at 60k
• Check if Rear differential fluid changed. If not, needs at 60k
• Check if front final drive fluid changed. If not, needs at 60k

You can see a thread of mine, where I show all maintenance schedule items to do for Panamera. CLICK HERE.
This will give you all items to verify in your pre purchase inspection.

Thanks!!

I put up a bunch of diys for the maintenance items. If not done, get a quote of repair at good shop and ask for drop in price by 85% of repair cost then allow them to negotiate you down some. That is if you are ok with diy.

You had a previous post from 2018 where you were selling a 1990 911 C4. The vin you listed matches one I am looking at and would like to connect to ask some questions in regards to this car.

Maybe try sending a PM instead of giving a 3 year old thread a necro-bump
