to isolate the noise of the drivetrain (engine/transmission) from the chassis, find a long downhill, turn off the engine and let it coast downhill if the noise still there is chassis related most likely a bearing or a sticking caliper...

So I found today on my drive that when the car is turning to the left on a curve or such the noise and vibration almost goes away. When going to the right it gets worse. Only enough worse though that I haven't noticed it until actually paying attention to it. Any ideas based off of this new information? ALSO... thanks so much to everyone that has responded and helped. I am continually amazed by the helpfulness and friendliness of the Porsche community.

Way to use your senses.
See, hear, feel, smell, taste, your car when you drive it. Then you start to sense things before they happen. Now you have a direction to go. Replacing bearings is not hard. Let us know how things turn out. |

By removing the drive shafts you would be able to replace the bearings in site (without having to remove the hub) this way you will minimize the risk of damaging the ball joint rubber boot and the need to realign the rear axle.
You may want to borrow a wheel bearing removing tool or borrow a sledge hammer from Autozone (it will be a workout...) Please note that the bearings have a magnetic strip on one end (for the ABS) and you want to install them the proper way, I learned about this the hard way.. :p Good luck |
