I drove 8,000 miles in January. No issues to report from that trip.

I have the above-mentioned clonking since day 1, piking up the car at the Factory. I "feel" it to be a deck-lid (hinge?) noise.

I did try a lot of varying surfaces and temperatures and elevations during my January trip: https://rennlist.com/forums/991-gt3-...some-pics.html

Porsche said my PSE was running 100% of the time. They traced the problem to the passenger side muffler. It's defective. They are replacing just the passenger side muffler. I've never heard of a problem like that? Does that sound correct?

That's for sure! At least the smiles on our faces are bigger than the financial abyss we just created!

Sounds odd to me. If one side is broken the other muffler would still open and close unless there was a vacuum leak in the broken muffler.

My left valve broke at ~1k miles and now the right stopped working today at 4k, taking it in this week but likely same issue as you. Hope this isn’t widespread and stops happening. Not trying to replace oem mufflers every year when warranty runs out lmao

Just the opposite for me . I've turned the bass way down. At '0' the system sounds like a 17 year old's '87' Honda Civic with the biggest woofer Walmart sells stuffed in the back.

Only two issues I've had with mine were both minor.

I had the exhaust actuator tube come off on the left side, as mentioned by others here. Fixed it myself the first time with a zip tie but it didn't hold up. Dealer put a new clamp on for me.

I had an issue with the shifter making a bit of a squeak and some rattling noises. I was sure there must be something wrong with the shifter itself but my dealer says I just need a new shift ****. This was during my year-end service before putting the car away for the winter so I'll get the new one on in the spring and see if it resolves the issue.

- Launch control doesn’t work with nannies off.

It needs either TC-On or ESC/TC-On, so any competitive event where you launch from a standing start is compromised.

- The .2 GT3 RS front spoiler lip is not as flexible as the .1 version, so it cracks easily.

Yes. Passenger side muffler valve defective. Replaced with new passenger side muffler. There were only two mufflers in stock in the country.
