Default MY17 CTTS front clonking noise

Hello guys,

i have a '17 CTTS brand new. It stayed in the dealer showroom for one year. Now i have 2000kms on the odometer and started to hear a clonking noise on the front, especially when i go over small dents/bumps in the asphalt. I've checked all the bushings, all the bolts, everything is ok. I don't know what else to check. The car has PDCC.

Any sugestions?
Many thanks

Could it be your brake pads shifting in the Calipers.

No clue, but it’s practically brand new. Take it to the dealer and let them figure it out.

I agree. Especially if you can reliably repeat the problem. As in, know exactly what it takes to get the vehicle to make the noise and under what conditions it won't. Some things happen only when cold, when warmed up, during hot weather... or cold, etc. If you can nail down how to repeat it that goes a long way to getting the dealer to fix it. That and posting the steps it takes to make it happen lets other owners know what to watch out for, and perhaps offer better explanations of what's going on.

I have the issue. Porsche has replaced my steering column 4 times already.

It’s getting old.

Four times?! Yeah, I bet it’s getting old.....I’d have moved on by now.

Thank you all for the inputs. Next week i am scheduled at the dealer and see what they say. Their official answer will be also posted here.
On mine i don't think it has to do with the steering column because it makes only when you hit a small pothole, or repeated road bumps with height of 3-6 cm. To me sounds more like rollbar rods.

Thanks

Any updates on this Black.Cayenne ? My vehicle is experiencing similar sounds when running over bumps or making slow speed turns.
