Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.
0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.
Suggestion
Mines always done this on start up, if its not been used for 4 -5 days in the winter.
Leading evidence: 'Use 4 -5 days in the winter' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Use 4 -5 days in the winter' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Hi all
Hope you can help. I've started getting a squeak/squeel (hard to describe) coming from the rear of my 54 C4S, can't tell exactly where as I'm in it it at the time, this only happens after the car has been parked up overnight it only lasts for the first 20 seconds or so and only when clutch is engaged but seems to be getting worse.
Had the 111 point check and new warranty put in place about 500 miles ago so would have thought they would pick up anything serious, problem is if I take it to OPC the noise will have gone by the time I get there.
Any ideas gratefully accepted.
Phil

Is it more noticable after heavy rain. If so it is just a belt slipping and quite normal. You may also notice that the Voltmeter (or whatever it is called) is a bit below where it should be.
Dave
No, it happens every morning now irrespective of the weather and it's garaged over night so not getting wet, voltmeter seems fine starts at 12 runs at about 14.
Phil
I have a squeak too!!
Hi
Did you get anywhere with this? My C4S has developed the same thing but can't seem to see where it is coming from. It doesn't seem to have any effect and doesn't last for longer than 10-20 secs.
Thanks
Dean
lol, surprisingly my 54 plate C4s does this as well :floor:
Mine does it when pulling away at junctions every now and again, regardless of engine temp. or conditions. I did start a thread on here at the time and was told by a few that it was a common issue but nothing at all to worry about. I have been to the OPC and mentioned it but they cannot find anything wrong and was told to "live with it" so I have. I can work around it by edging away slowly but it can be a bit annoying when in "pose mode" in town :hand:
There is always a danger of becoming repetitive when trying to be a smart ass! IMO Porsche seem to have more than than their fair share of squeaks, groans etc ... I've learnt to live with them by either turning up the music or winding down the window, the tyre noise alone seems to drown out most things (including the backseat driver)
