Well, I finally had the right front bearing changed and still the same noise. Before this I changed the tires(time for new tires) and front brake pads(worn). These changes did not affect the noise either, same noise after as before. Could it be a bent rim? I will continue troublshooting the right front strut and control arm. Any other suggestions. thanks, steve

I am getting noise from the right front. A humming noise that comes and goes. Mainly after it is warmed up at between 20 and 40 mph. This happens either going straight or turning. Also, going over rough roads at the same speed I get a metal rattle /grinding sound that happens every so often from the same right side. It is not consistent. Porsche dealer said it was the tires. Replaced the tires. Still get noises. Had a reliable shop look over everything and compared it to the left side. Both look the same. When I push down on the front right and front left side the struts do not make any type of noise. I have seen many suggestions that it could be a bearing, lower control arm and bushing, sway bar,it could be the strut bearing or a combination of things. Just thought I would throw this out there before I dig into it and spend some money 2000 Boxster S 49k miles Thanks, steve

Thanks for all your responses. I know the question was a newbie question. I have been getting a cel that indicated 3 out of the 4 oxygen senosrs were bad. The shop and I figured it was best to replace all four. Now I am getting a P1126 and P1133 cel code. The shop cleaned the fuel injectors, checked the volume supply of fuel pump too low(ok), checked fuel pressur(ok), cleaned the MAF. Did not check for intake air system leaking. Still getting cel. I ordered the newer version of the MAF(986-606-125-01-M14) from pelicanparts. The shop said I still had the orginal MAF. Will try that with new oem paper air filter. Question: Do I need to have anything reprogrammed for the newer version of the MAF or can I just install it myself and have cel cleared.
