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.

Coverage and how to read this overview

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.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1Original post

I have this annoying noise when driving my car, at any speed (even at 5mph, clutch depressed so engine is at idle) when the car drivers over uneven surfaces (and by uneven I even mean uneven parts of very good tarmac, very very small ripples you would not even notice were it not for this noise). It sounds resonated. Normally when you drive over some ripples/potholes you get a dry "thunk" from the suspension, but here it sounds like someone taps on a small bongo (--> http://www.gope.net/Produtos/BongoNovo.gif ) (it keeps on resonating for a little while). What I don't get it is it even happens at very low speeds. When going faster and having bigger ripples it sounds louder. When driving at constant speed you can hear it nearly all the time ( something like toomtomtomtoomtooomtomtomtomtomtooomtomtom, ok this looks ridiculous, but how to describe a sound? ) It is a 2007 Cayman S with 20k miles and standard (non pasm) suspension and a PSE exhaust. Anyone experienced the same?

POST 2Original post

That doesn't sound like resonance. It sounds like something loose. If it does sound like a dry thump it's unlikely to be anything bumping on the chasis, as they generally sound clangy. I'd think it's either a loose bit of trim, or something in your boot/glove compartment rattling. I'd get a dealer to check it. Let us know how it works out

POST 3Original post

If it were rattling in the boot or glove compartiment, how come it still does this even at 5mph? I ll try having it checked out asap.

POST 4Original post

Well it still does it, and still no idea where it comes from ... :/
