I have a 997.2 S with PDK. When I apply the brakes on rough road surface there is a continuous noise emanating from above the driver's legs, between the brake pedal and the steering wheel. The noise is more pronounced the rougher the asphalt and it sounds like a spring being released or similar.

I am taking the car to be checked but because there could many things that potentially create the noise, I am wondering if any of you have had something similar.

I suppose this could have equally happened on any 997.1, so your views will be much appreciated.

I have that also at the top of my driveway which is steep and scored. I have a 6 speed but from my "internet" research it is the abs activating. I am compensating by pushing harder on the brake pedal rather than using the brakes to slow down. I have to back down my driveway into the garage and because of the slope and the need to make a turn I prefer to roll down in neutral.

I do plan on chatting with the local service manager. Let us know what you learn. It may just be the abs.

ABS? How hard are you braking? ABS should not intervene all the time.

Not hard, just enough to slow the car down. But the uneven surface seems to trigger the abs. I have found if I push harder to come to a full stop no abs.
