I just picked up my 2012 Pan 4S and I have a couple questions. I've set my key and seats, etc. but no matter what I do, the radio is always on when I start the car. I've turned the radio off and reset my settings, but it's always on when I come back and start the car. Also, sometimes when I turn the car off and get out, I hear a mechanical sound for a few seconds. It sounds as if something is retracting or going back in place, but i can't figure out what it is. It doesn't happen all the time. Thanks for the help.

My radio is always ON also upon start-up. You will get used to it. Neither my dealer or PCNA would address the problem. All I got from PCNA was thank you for your input stating your Panamera is properly designed; basically saying F*** Y** for asking.

No help with your issues, other than asking the dealer to check for a software mod, but welcome to Rennlist and Pan ownership.

I set my Audio source to Aux, which means even though it comes on when the car starts, it does so silently unless I have something plugged into it and playing. You might try that.
I hear the sounds too. I have air suspension, and think the car is just settling to a rest point with the air pressure let out.

the PCM in the Panamera is a poorly executed. i have the Entry Drive feature and the seat/ PCM settings are almost never right; as if the car has gremlins. Of course,the dealer says its normal and other porsche-philes think i'm weird for expecting it to function logically. i gave up on it and just accept its quirkiness.
