Question about Porsche (Macan GTS) interior build quality (rattles, squeaks, etc)

120k on my Macan - rattle free from new. You will still get the 10mph 'click', though. Did anyone ever figure out what that was?

The repeated click when turning, do you mean?

Not when turning. All times when starting off. Just as the speedo gets to 10mph there's a soft click.

I think it may be from the brake servo, as I had this same noise on my Audi Q5

, and Audi eventually changed to a different servo supplier which cured the clicking

6 months & 2300 miles in on my GTS and I’m starting to get a very annoying vibration from the drivers side area either door or right side of steering column. I’ve emptied the door pocket etc, tried to place my hand on different parts of the door etc when it starts but can’t pinpoint it.
Going to call supplying OPC to log the issue, very annoying!!!

It is possibly the sunroof manual allen key, or PDK release lever stored in the end of the dash, behind the end cap.

Wonder how I know that?

I hear the rattle sound from my Macan S Gen 3 and I suspect that comes from the centre console panel near the Gear Lever or somewhere around. Reported it 4 months ago. OPC guy drove the car for 30 minutes and I was quietly siting on the passenger sear and waiting for that rattle sound to pop up on his presence but NOT even once rattled.

.. after few day, I heard it and still hearing it. I nowadays increase the speaker volume and tell to myself, what a lovely song...

That IS a pain, was same on Gen2, I'm blaming the slope on my drive, 5+ degrees, which I reverse down. Are you similar, level or nose down?

Sorry I've been away. Yes level drive as someone else has said. I also get condensation in my rear light clusters after washing
