CTT Front Airshock Mount Bushing & Control Arm Replacement

If you notice your car is squeaking a lot at front, not smooth over bumps, has noises coming out of front, chances are your shock mount bushings are damaged and need replacement. If you need to do this, I hope you can use this tutorial to get it all fixed.  Hope it helps.  Feel free to give feedback afterwards.  Thank you.   Pics labeled *-DRV are for driver side shock...otherwise everything else is same on both sides.

I can see the tutorial no issues.  You have to make sure you are logged in, so you can see the photos.

Just tried and all photos are there.  Let the admin know if you have issues viewing the DIY.

      Turning Wheels Causing Popping Noise - Warrantied?
      By wcp
      My front wheel was making a rattling noise for about the last week, and this morning as I drove out of my driveway and turned the wheel, I could hear a loud popping noise coming from my wheel whenever I turned. My best guess is that I drove over a pothole and the control arm / bushing moved out of place. Would this be covered under the OE warranty? Or should I take it to a mechanic?

      2009 Cayenne Turbo S front lower control arm in 955
      By danish
      Has anyone installed 08-10 Cayenne Turbo S lower control arm in 955 S.  I have MY04 Cayenne S.
      And can MY06 955 CTTS LCA be installed in MY04 CS?
       
      part number for MY09 CTTS is 955-341-017-61.
      part number for MY06 CTTS is 955-341-017-50
       
      I went to the dealer and compared the two, they look almost identical except for a little bit bigger outer diameter where it joins the upper control arm.  It is the #3 bolt location that seems very slightly larger in outer diameter.

      Front suspension groan/creak
      By Vish_ster
      Folks,
      I started noticing this intermittent creak/groan on the driver's side front suspension, every time I egress the car, after a spirited drive. 
      I have had some creaking due to the lubrication loss in the ball joint area from the rear and have used the hole-in-the-rubber-boot to inject grease to keep the noise from recurring. I did the same for the front, just to be sure.
      This noise puzzles me.
      Based on my research, it may be the front strut mount bearing but didn't want to go about replacing parts without your opinions.
      It doesn't occur when the steering wheel is moved from corner to corner though or feel different during a drive.
      Shows up only when there is downward pressure on the foot area in the driver side, during egress or when pressure is applied on the car side fender over/near the strut area. 
      Here is a video of the latter, for audio on two creak/groans between the spring movement.

      Appreciate your insights on what this can be...
      My car is clocking nearly 173K ...so wondering if this can be a simple DIY  or figure out the need to have a complete strut bearing and/or strut replacement.
       
      Thank you,
      V

      Rear clunking/rattle - Which control arm goes first?
      By Bruce in Philly
      With my Boxster S, it was the lateral arms... the ones that goes front to back. In the 197K miles of ownership, I think I replaced at least all of them twice and a few three times.

      My 2009 C2S has a clunking/rattle in the right rear. I had it up on jacks and could not find it. I checked the three bolts on the top of the struts, I put a tire iron in there and twisted and wedged and no joint/bushing moved more than the others.

      I am very sure it is a control arm. So, unless someone in Philly has some chassis ears they can lend me for a day, I want to just replace the most common offender. 997 331 043 01

      So, which rear control arm goes first?
      Anyone know the torque values for this part?

      Peace
      Bruce in Philly
