Urgent question about M030
Had the annual serice in my 2003 Carrera Tiptronic on Friday at Porsche. Mobil 1 0w/40 , filters , the lot. I have the M030 RoW suspension on my car. Has only covered 20k miles ( car done 36k miles) and its been a bit noisy recently. I was advised to change at some point the suspension mounts. Can someone tell me that parts i need ( front and rear as well ? ) , are they different for M030 ( i would imagine not ??) and are they easy to source , ie are OEM one easily available ? ( Normally i buy all parts from Porsche )

Your top mounts are regular OEM. Only X74 requires different mounts. Fronts are 99734301801, rears are 99633305903 for C2. Clunks are generally struts and mounts because of vertical motion. Squeaks and such are generally control arms, etc. Seems to me your mileage is a bit low for strut mounts to be worn. I have 85,000 on mine and just put an ROW M030 on my C2. All 4 strut mounts were replaced at 68,000 and they look like new. Do a google search for the parts. Plenty of sellers.
