PORSCHE PANAMERA ( 15/08/2016 – 09/03/2017) DEFECT: There is a possibility the clamp between the particle filter and the front exhaust pipe is not closed fully due to an unfavourable tolerance pairing.The particle filter could become detached from the exhaust pipe when travelling over bumps for example. This can then cause exhaust gas to leak out and rattling noises. If this happens the customer will notice an exhaust smell and the pre-mentioned noise.
Remedy
Affected vehicles will be recalled so the clamp can be checked. Where necessary relevant components will be replaced.
