I have a 2007 Cayman S with 7K miles on it. In recent months I have occasionally noticed a very brief screech, or whine from the rear when I make a turn (L or R) from a standing start. It doesn’t happen when the car is going straight from a standing start. Because of the cooler weather, the car has been idle for about 3-4 weeks but last week I took it out for a couple of days (Air temps were low – don’t know if this is a factor). Now the screech is more frequent and a bit more obvious. At first I thought it might be a limited slip problem and that the tranny oil was still viscous, but the car does not have a limited slip. I presume the tranny runs in its own oil but I’m not certain. I suppose it could be the clutch but it doesn’t happen when the car is going straight. Anybody have experience with this problem? sani

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.
