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.

Problem is my warranty runs out beginning of next year and I want to get this issue fixed before the car goes into storage and out of warranty.
Here are my car specs:
2003 911 Carrera 2
Tiptronic S
20k miles
I recently have been hearing a thud from the rear of the car when accelerating hard. When I accelerate slowly there are no noises from the rear. The thud can be hear from a stop or low speed hard acceleration.
I took the car into the dealership and it has been there 5 days. The service manager said the sound came from worn transmission mounts, so they replaced them. However, now they say they can hear a softer clunk noise from the rear when accelerating. They replaced the engine mounts, but the sound is still there. They have had my car 3 days since they fixed the intial issue. They are now putting on microphones around the car to identify the area of the noise. The service manager said he has not had to replace tranny mounts on at tip before. He says that everything is being covered under warranty, which makes me feel better, but I still dont have my car!
Anyone know what can be wrong with my car? Do you think I should take it to another dealer or give him a couple more days? Thanks for the help in advance.

noises are very hard to find, its not as easy as people think, i recently had a car i spent 25 hours on looking for an intermitten noise in the frotn end. driving around with the chassis ears (electronic mics) on the car treying to pinpoint the noise. If they are fixing the noise, and its under warrenty give them time let them sort it out, calling about it and getting upset doesnt help them find the noise and it puts pressure on the tech to rush trhough a job that shouldnt be rushed
Well, the service manager said they are running out of things to test. Looks like I will have to take it to another dealer or wait till the noise actually causes damage
