Default Buzzing from passenger side dash area

Hi,

I have noticed a buzzing sound coming from the passenger side of the dash and can be heard when going over 'washboard' type surfaces and similar road imperfections. I can also hear it when I close the passenger door. Has anyone else had this buzzing noise?

Thanks

Which gen of Panamera.. 970 or 971? For 970, two potential causes...
  1. Sun Visor - in the down position, it squeaks a bit at the clip/plastic roller.
  2. A-Pillar Trim - my service advisor said that it is a potential source of noise.

Hi dudecs, it is a 970 ('16 GTS).

It is not definitely not coming from the sun visor. I will look at the A pillar trim this afternoon and keep you posted. However, it does sound like it's coming from the dash area right in front of the passenger. Thanks for your help.

Maybe the cabin air filter coming loose?
