MY 2022 Rattles
#16
I've read through a few different threads here on rattles. My car has the extended fuel tank installed -- but still notice the rattling/creaking even when the tank is full. It sounds like it's coming from the center of the dash near the Chrono. Have a couple of videos attached. Any ideas or thoughts on what it could be? It's more pronounced on rough roads, but I'm pretty sure I've noticed it on the highway at speed as well.

please keep us posted, I have the same rattle, have left my car twice, each time for 7-8 days, they have taken down my gas tank to see if it was from there or left front speaker grill? Nothing worked so I just turn in the music and try to ignore. If you find the fix, please let us know. Thanks

UPDATE: Car has been with the dealer for the last week and will be there for the next few days. They're pretty certain it's the fuel tank. There are some foam pads there to mitigate the rattling, one had fallen off some how and another misaligned. So they're extracting the fuel out and dropping the tank to replace the foam pads. Hopefully it solves the issue and doesn't come up again. Wondering if this is a design defect for these foam pads coming out of place or it has something to do with my driving? lol

Some of us have both 992’s and EV’s.
Can’t speak for everyone in this category, but will say my experience has been that my EV is uncannily quiet and rattle free. Only sound is a bit of tire/road noise and wind at highway speeds. Wish I could say the same for the 992…especially when it cost nearly 3X what I paid for the EV. But will give a huge thumbs 👍up for why I bought the 992…it handles like it was on rails, with mind bending quickness.
But as a constructive criticism, Porsche needs to work harder on quieting the rattles that a fair number of us have, or had with the 992.

On both my 991.2 Targa, and also 992 Targa, both of these cars with both Driver and Passenger sides have an occasional light rattle sound that really seems like it is coming from the dash in front... however it's actually from up top from the Sun Visor bouncing with the headliner. If you put the sun visor down or move it even slightly down so it doesn't touch the roof, then it goes away immediately.

My 2022 C2S had a passenger door rattle and possible tank rattle until recently. They fixed the door rattle once but it came back. Over the last couple of months it seems like the rattles have disappeared. I have almost 10k miles on it and it has seemed to get quieter with time, to my surprise. Maybe this gives hope to some people still dealing with rattles.

I wonder how well 911s have been with rattles over say the last one or two decades. Is it people's experience that they have been relatively rattle free? There seems to be a fair number of rattle complaints on the 992 generation and manufacturing quality issues. My 2001 Boxster S and 2014 Cayman S were both rattle free, so is my 2023 Carrera 4. Knock on wood.

Sounds like someone at the factory didnt do their job installing the pads on an extended tank.
I believe this can happen because there's less room (given the tank size) to install the pads.

24 here. I have a very noticeable rattle coming from the front end of the car. I don't have the extended gas tank, nor do I notice any difference if it's full or not. It's also not related to speed bumps. It happens mainly on low rpm's, low speed. When I am approximately above 30km/h it completely goes away, or I stop hearing it.
Read all the rattle threads and watched all the videos and nothing seems to be the same.
Seems to be the same rattle that you would get in an MT car when driving super low rpms.
Someone here said flywheel, but I'm unsure if it's that. Will take it in next week to have it checked out.
