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 My 996 c4 has developed a continuous whine coming from the front (i think) at motorway speeds and seems to get louder when coming off the throttle. I have tried depressing the clutch and it seems to have no effect as does dabbing the brakes. Any Ideas? Thanks in advance.
Let the wife travel inside the car, not in the boot?
Front diff or as I found tyres
lol Ghost wheel baring?
is there any effect on the noise if you turn left or right ?
NO CHANGE in noise when turning,
Whining is normally wheel bearing. Jack the car up and see if there is any play in the wheels.
Mine had the same symptoms although on a C2. New gearbox @ 7k ish. Thanks Mr warranty :lol:
did your whine in neutral at highish speed? hope its wheel bearing
The only time it didnt whine was when when it was stopped. It was an internal gearbox bearingthat had/was in the process of collapsing.
If it is a gearbox, and you have no wty, then don't despair- my local specialist can now rebuild gearboxes for a good deal less than £7k.
I think Fearnsport will rebuild a box for around £3k ! But lets hope this is only a wheel bearing !
