2018 C2 2.5k miles, driver side door panel rattled the day I picked it up. Starting to notice a rattle near the passenger rear side during colder weather. The front suspension also squeaks when going over tall speed bumps under 40 degree weather.

My 2017 .2, has a door rattle, both sides, helps to rest my elbow on top of the panel. Vibration from the door speaker makes it worse. I also have a small rattle from the cup holder push to open mechanism, left side. It is annoying, but I don't think it's enough to take it in....

I bought a 2015 CPO and I voted, since it had no rattles, the service history where it was originally bought and where I got it shows no service record for rattle complains and repair.

2016 Targa 4 GTS. 17,000 miles. No rattles. Never actually had a Porsche with a rattle. I guess I’ve been very lucky.

2019 Carrera GTS, ordered from factory, zero rattles or squeaks

Same, going in this week for service.

It's all relative. Can we have a hearing cert. for everyone that replies?

It's impossible for a car with this stiff of a suspension and such low profile tires to not have noise. I just live with it.

Good point! But the ride of my 991.2 C2 actually isn't too bad, after a little over 2,000 miles and with (Pirelli Sottozero) winter tires.

God bless,

2017 C2S Endurance Racing Edition - Noticed at around 1000 miles...might have showed up after I had vinyl wrap put on. They might have shifted something. Anyway my service rep and I are close and we work to find it for some time. It was coming from around the door handle /window switched on the passenger door. We finally drove down to the service bay on a slow day late and met with the master tech. My service manager was about to order expensive parts and I wasn't convinced it would fix the issue so the master tech and i looked at places we felt it might be coming from. He took off a plastic part to see if it would help and I headed home. It continued but it gave me a chance to mess around until I found something I felt would fix it. I'll post pictures of what I did when I get a chance. I believe the problem is resolved.

Mine turned out to just be the latch / mechanism to tilt the seat. They greased it up. Fine since.

My 991.2 had a buzz coming from the instrument cluster area. Further exacerbated by new stiff KW V3 setup.

991.2S Cabriolet, 2 years old. With roof and windows up, there is a rattle / jitter from the driver's side window. Not sure whether it's the rear quarter light or the door window. Stops when I lean on it but not a comfortable driving position! Tried resetting, etc but always comes back. Similar on other side but not as bad, probably cos further away from my ear. Seems to reduce or go away when the car is warm. Obviously not tight enough into the central support strut and/or the roofline.

That should be very easy for them to fix since you have a solution for stopping it.
