Can anyone let me know how to stop a squeak in my top? It only occurs when the top is down. The noice comes from the drivers side rear. I hear it when I am driving slow. Thx

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.

Find the rubber “cushions” that the folded top frame lays into when it folds. Put a little Gummi-Pflege on them. I am extrapolating this from a TSB for 996 tops squeaking when closed.(it worked for me on my 2002 996.) https://www.amazon.com/nextzett-91480615-Gummi-Pflege-Rubber/dp/B004B8GTQG
