Fixed my rattles with thin rubber sections.

all 992’s should come with a trim removal tool and an assortment of rubber/foam pieces 🤓

I bought a ton of this tint protector stuff. Its basically just like OEM felt. High quality. Stops rattles and prevent chasing of things. I use it on a million things.

OT, I have a loose shifter inlay on my manual trans. I so wish I could figure our how to get that thing out and glue it in properly. Alas, to the dealer for a whole new shifter. It’s not that I don’t trust the dealer, I just wish I could save everyone some time.

I fixed both myself!!!! Lessons learned.
I also have a noise on my new 992 on the passenger door.
if I push the internal handle the noise disappears, how can I solve it?

I’m going to try to fashion some sort of foam insert to isolate the module a bit from its neighbors.

Anyway, here are a couple pics of the console with the trim pieces removed in case anyone was curious as to what’s under there.



Did you resolve the noises you were hearing?

Having done this m-self, this YouTube Video is actually quite good.
Two Suggestions:
First, there is no need to remove any of the "Button Covers" that he does in this video. There is nothing that you'll need to get to that requires removing these Button Covers unless you are trying to repair or replace the Button Module entirely or parts of the Button Module.
Second, In this video you will observe a number of almost paper thin die cut rubber gaskets that suddenly appear and disappear without any comment by the author. Do pay close attention to these "gaskets" where they are located and their orientation relative to the plastic pieces that they are sandwiched between.. Their purpose it to prevent these various plastic parts from squeaking when they move relative to each other (the slight movement happens normally). Leave them out, or out of place, when you reassemble everything, and suffer the audio annoyance!
