I have a 2000 Boxster with the 2.7L and it sounds like there is noise at idle which sounds a lot like bearings.
The car has 40,000 miles on it, has been maintained well and is always in the garage with a trickle charger on it.
I recorded the sound from the driver's side rear tire area so if I can figure out how to attach the sound file to this post hopefully someone will be able to steer me in the right direction.
