Nobody tries both ?

I will try a 295 hp in April.

Comparison with my 280 hp then.

300 hp is not for 2007.

Just back from Porsche dealer, they noticed the noise.

after a serious lubrification of the entire mecanism of the roof, the noise disappears on driver side but still slightly present on passenger side but very low.

it seems that, at the fabrication this lubrification was too low.

problem solved ( for the moment).

I believe i'm in the same boat.

Over harsh roads you would hear the clicking of a sticky joint. its not so much a rattle, but rather a joint that could do with some lube. I've been trying to place it and i think its coming from the frame mount behind the seatbelt spools at the top. It's on both sides.

I'm not convinced that the OPC will know what to do in this case (from previous reports on this) and may even exacerbate the problem unfortunately.

I agree with that.

I have a visit on 26th at the Porsche center to check.

I'll keep you informed

merry X'mas.

Hi

since i have 5000 kms we can ear a cracking noise coming from the roof when closed , on each side appearing on bad roads.

someone already know that ?

solution ?

many thanks

Could be rain water, but it would not be real clean either.

I think it could be moisture from your AC. Maybe your drain tube is clogged or pinched and the water is leaking into the cabin vs. outside.

good idea , it was the AC drain tube unplugged

many thanks

Just read about this somewhere else ... apparently there is a drain ( maybe one on each side ) under the hood somewhere around the base of the windshield that drains away excess water from the windshield ... this had clogged, and the water found it's way to the passenger side rug and drenched it.

I would find that drain hole & depending on what you find ( I haven't looked yet ) either snake it or blow it out. Good Luck !

Many thanks, I think you have found the problem , a visit to my Porsche agent is planned .

My 997S has been hanging at the "Porsche Charg-o-mat I infusion" for about 3 weeks.

This morning when I checked it in the garage, there was no light on on the charger. When I pull it out of the outlet and re-insert it, the red light comes on just quickly.

Isn't it true that either a red light (when charging) or a green light (when battery is full) should be lit?

If this is the case, how would I be able to determine if the charge is still working properly?

I have the same charger, the light is red when charging and off when the battery is full .

roger

Yes many thanks

I have emailed to NAVTEQ about updated cds.... Its interesting what they have told me.........

" we dont have responsability about updates, we make a data base updated for many cars maker, then they are who program the cd matrix with the GPS company (siemens) buying our database."

Porsche has all responsability!!!!

what do you think we can do?? emailing porsche????

Best Regards.
