I purchased my '95 993 used and did have a PPI performed...

....here's my problem,
when approaching my driveway I hit it at an angle so I don't scrape the bottom of the car. When I do this I hear creaking inside the car, like metal rubbing against rubber. Or rubber against glass. Is this normal or do I have a car that was in a serious accident?

Thanks.

Mine creaks! Never had any other car do that before. The windshields on these cars are known to creak as well.

Yes, these cars creak.

I thank you both!....I feel better now!

Once again geolab is on the spot. This is a great fix and used it when I had my old cab. On my new cab I lubed the gasket for the windshield prior to install. The creaking is normal but can be diminished.

Mine creaks with the best of them! I used the Porsche rope method and it helped a little but it's still creaks.

Porsche rope method? Educate me please. Btw, did you play golf the other day or were you rained out?

Brian,
It's a rope that fits under the rubber seal for the back window. I bought it from Sunset. I guess it keeps the window from moving around so much. It did help with he creaking.

I did play the other day but it did start raining on the 17th hole.

I look forward to seeing you in November for Palooza!

Totally normal -- mine has creaked since day #1. I used to "fix" with silicone, but it is only a temporary fix.

Talk about a crazy driveway! I had to design and get steel ramps fabricated just so I could get the cars in the garage! PITA!

Ditto.

That's ridiculous. You should have moved.

Nah, it's a 2000 sq.ft. garage with a house on top. Got room for 6 cars, 7 in a pinch.

Me too! Remind me to look at this rope thing while we're there.
