My GT3 had similar clicking when turning.

At first dealer replaced the brake disc. Problem persisted.

Then they replaced some aluminium retains clips on the brake calliper (don’t know precise part, didnt ask!) and no more clicking.

Yes those retaining Clips. I checked they were all tight and they were all tight.

anyway, i will report back if the problem surfaces again. Fingers crossed it lasts another 2 years! (of no clicking)

Though hopefully this thread will help others in the future.

I get the same thing. Took it to the dealership, but they also couldn't identify anything. Maybe they need to do the same thing and just take off and put the wheel back on? In any case, I'll probably check back in with them.

Thanks!

I have the exact same sound on my 2019 GTS! Only noticeable at slow speeds at extreme left or right turn (almost full lock). Almost sounds like rocks in the wheels/tires. I'm taking my car in for service tomorrow for some other things and will have them look it over. Should I recommend they remove the wheels and clean the mounting surface? And/or the brake hat?

Did they solve the issue? What did they do?

I have the clicking allot with 3 different track wheel sets, always the way the fronts are seated. Take off and remount = hey presto clicking gone! Always noticed it on cool down laps with windows down as thought something was seriously wrong.

Remove the wheels and clean them perfectly. Re paste with a thin coat around the inner lip. Make sure to coat evenly in the inner ring from edge to edge. Had it on my car.
This solved the problem.

It's the wheel bearing that makes that sound and you have to replace it.
I had this issue with my 2016 RS and now also with my 2019 RS ...
