The more people post about this, the more I think that the sport chrono option isn't worth the hassle.

I have really tired hard to identify when this happens. It is almost not noticeable when the car is driven from cold. If you drive the car for say 10 miles then it becomes more noticeable . If you drive 10 miles and then park the car up for half an hour and then drive it again the noise is very very obvious. I think the heat soak effect of the engine gradually increases the temperature of the dampers and make the fluid in them less viscous and as such the dampers maybe have more movement . the service bulletin referred to in this thread actually says if new dampers are fitted in may not fix the problem.
My MY 21 992 turbo S did not have this problem. I will post again once I have had the work done
Did your new mounts resolve the noise? I have had the same symptoms and experience with my MY23 c4; dealer has called to say new mounts are now in stock. I've told them I'm reluctant to sanction work unless there's evidence from Porsche/other owners that the latest iteration (D? E??) offers a fix. The dealer has no prior experience with this problem, and didn't immediately know which version of the mounts has been provided. No error messages or other discernible issues with the car means I'll live with it unless replacement pretty much guarantees a solution.

Do you know if these are the latest (5th/E) version? Either way, hope you get a good result.

Hopefully it does resolve the sound, but speaking from experience I think it will be sometime before we know if it actually resolved the issue. In my case the sound/rattle came back after about 1k miles/6mos and has progressively gotten louder and is back to the same state pre-replacement. Granted I had rev A mounts as my replacement, so I'm really hoping for the best for those getting this resolved with the latest version mounts.

Same issue with the 992 in Brazil. Just got a Turbo 23/23, 200 miles. Two times in the dealers, all the excuses that I read in this forum were presented. They have no idea on what to do with it.

Yup that's one of the reasons I deliberately optioned my car without SC.

SC is a less important option with MT. But, doubt I would buy a PDK without it.

To each their own, I have a PDK and I don't miss anything really by dropping SC. I definitely would be worrying if I had it though, so the lack of the daily worry is a big bonus to me.

Agree with you. It is YOUR car so you should buy it exactly how YOU want it, not what me or anyone else wants. But just pointing out that there is a difference between what comes with SC option based on which transmission option is selected. That is why SC is so much more expensive on the configurator for the PDK. Best wishes.

I hear you guys but when you turn on SC you definitely feel the difference and the car feels invincible.

Something I have seen mentioned in this forum but not confirmed, is switching to regular rubber mounts, and changing the code presumably in the controller, to reflect their absence.
I have learned that the controller for the dynamic motor mounts also controls the electronic shock absorbers.
...edit: And I forgot to add that the primary reason for replacement was the error message.

is you engine mount issue resolved?

At the time of replacement, I learned that the mounts had been redesigned to accommodate the. reengineered mounting frame for the 992.

My dealer was very proactive.
great to hear. Thanks for sharing. Do you know the engine mount model number that it was replaced with? Thanks
