997 Carrera 4 Interior Cabin Noise
wlc4 replied to wlc4's topic in 997-1 Series (Carrera, Carrera 4, Carrera 2S, Carrera 4S)
I presume the b-pillar assembly has to be removed to access the nuts? I guess I should suggest this to the dealer then. Thanks for the help! -
997 Carrera 4 Interior Cabin Noise

I don't have TPMS, but I would've assumed that they checked the pressure when I went in for my 2 yr service?? Thanks for your reply. -
I have a 997 Carrera 4 with a manual transmission. The car is stock except for and EVOMS cold air intake that came with the car when I bought it last year. I purchased the car with about 7k miles on it. I have put about 2k more on it mostly commuting to my office. A few months after I bought the car I began to notice a vibrating noise that seemed to be coming from the b-pillars of the car. Specifically at around 3k RPMs the driver side would being to make a resonating noise, the at 5k RPMS the passenger side would make a similar but louder noise. I have taken it to my dealer several times. The service manager suggested to me that perhaps my sense of hearing is better than his! All they have tried to do is insulate the interior of the b-pillars with foam tape. While the noises aren't as loud as they once were, they are still noticeable. IT IS DRIVING ME CRAZY!!! This is my first Porsche. I have heard that older ones do make some weird noises, but I have didn't think the 997s had any of these issues. Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated!
