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.

Sounds like worn bearing or bushing to me. I can't image that could be ok. I wouldn't call it a "clunk", more like a rattle. Does the part exhibit looseness fore and aft?

Power steering pump - 996-314-050-02 Okay, so that's what it is, but is that okay?
POST 5Original post
On most 996s there are 4 accessories driven by the belt, that one is the power steering pump. If its not leaking, exhibiting play and doing what it should I'd say it's fine. I would guess if I went and checked mine it would be the same.

I had my airbox out so I checked and yes exactly the same.
