Default Turn signal

My 03 996, when the turn signal is on you can barely hear the tick tock noise. Does that mean I need to replace the relay or is this normal for this car?

Mine is very quiet too. I can only hear it if I sit at idle.

Mine is pretty quiet too but I like it that way. It might be normal but others can chime in with their expertise.

My 04 C2 is quiet. In fact I recall tapping away improvising a beat along with the tic toc of the indicator in my previous cars, but I don't do it in this one, that's how I know it's quiet.

I am a bit (mutton Jeff) and I wish there was a way to make it louder. Many times I am driving along with it still quietly ticking away which could be very dangerous for me if a motorist pulls out in front of me thinking I am turning into where he is coming out of. Maybe someone can come up with an answer, other than a hearing aid in my lugs lol. Coming onto a main road from a slip road is the time it does not cancel, but most times I remember to manually cancel it out after joining the road.
