Are you sure that the noise sounds as an electrical whistle coming from the cluster? Some earlier 997 have a windshield which is not good sealed to the body with a high pitched noise ( wind is blowing through a small hole ) as result. Tape the front windshield complete around with masking tape and do a test drive before you remove the cluster.
Hi Thanks
Just around the whole rubber seal? or the top where it meets the roof edge or the bottom where it meets the plastic tray.
Thanks again

Do you mean a static noise? or an electrical arcing noise. I have not heard of either - but it might be worth while to remove the cluster and see if there are connectors that are not seated or worn/pinched wires.
It is like a high pitched electrical whistle that gets louder. I seems to come straight out of the cluster in front of you. It starts intemittent and within an extra 10mph is very high pitched and loud. It seems like feedback maybe? This may also be my imagination but I only seem to get it when the weather is dry ?
How easy is it to remove the cluster Loren?
Thanks again
Matt

Yes, they are the same. The difference is 6 speed vs. Tiptronic and country specific.
Thanks Loren
The reason I ask is that I am getting an electrical high pitched noisein y 06 997 that appears to be coming from the dashpod that kicks in around 90mph. Is is speed dependent as starts a little intermittent but then gets louder and constant the faster I go. It is like an electrical restistance noise. Could this be a faulty dashpod or have you come across anything similar
Cheers

Does anyone know if the 997 dashpod is the same for the C2 and C2S except for the colour of the dials or are they specific to the car?

Tonight when cleaning the windshield of my car I noticed a fine 8 inch vertical scratch on the inside of the glass; the scratch is visible under fluorescent lighting and I can barely feel it with my finger nail. I cannot figure out how the hell this happened and if i look really closely it look like there are two parallel lines making up the scratch. I don't wear any jewelry other than a watch and my girlfriend does not clean my car windows. I tried removing the scratch with some Scratch-X but that did very little. Any ideas how this could have occurred and what I can try to remove the scratch?
Thanks.
We are not talking about the imbeded antenna, are we?
mmmmmmmm ;)

How much did it cost ?

£210 is bout $400. ....To swap 4 wheels over!
I want to change 18" Turbos for 19" Cayenne Design. Dealer says that PCM settings need to be changed even if there are no TPMS? The rolling radius of the wheels is the same...just less tyre and more wheel.
What is the change is the PSM??
I only take delivery of my car on 1st march
Cheers
Matt

are they the same type/size for 18" turbo and 19" cayenne design??
Sorry for such a daft question
Cheers

Thanks Loren..can you tell me what this part is

If you change the size of the wheels??? Seems hard to believe. Dont have TPM or PASM.
I find this hard to believe especially as he is charging me £210...to do it.
Does this PCM thing sound right?

Hi
What did you use to remove the rear badge? Where did you buy the silver replacement from?

Taped the whole screen using detailing tape. No difference. The noise still kicks in. Thanks anyway
