2005 boxster s - buzzing sound at 3k?

mrsparkle, does California have a "lemon law"? If you do, you should try this approach with your dealer, and try to get them to replace your car. It does not sound normal or in spec to me.

It started on my 987S at about 2K miles. I seem to get it when the engine's cold and when I decelerate down to 2200rpm.

Sorry to hear about your situation, mrsparkle. I'd check out the lemon law thing.

I wonder if some of the rattles mentioned here might be covered by this TSB:
3/05 4078 Rattling Noises From The Area Of The Front And Rear Axle

Diagnosis:
"On above-mentioned vehicles, the hexagon nut on the threaded connection for the stabilizer/connecting link can become loose on the front or rear axle due to loss of preload. This leads to rattling noises from the area of the front and/or rear stabilizer"

I saw this post on the PCA Tech website today:

"A vibration at this RPM that can be duplicated every time while parked is do to the Twin flow valve in the intake. More specifically closer to 3000 rpm's this valve is actuated and a slight vibration is felt. This is normal and is in all the non "S" models at this range.
