Update on my situation:

After attempts to have the car fixed, I told the dealer I wanted the rattles fixed or a letter on Porsche letterhead stating the rattles are a feature, not a flaw.

It took a week, but the 2050 rpm rattle seems to be fixed. They stated they replaced the oil piston. I put 300 miles on since I picked up the car (3 days ago) and have had no rattle at 2050 rpm.

On the issue of the 3K rpm, the one that sounds like a heat shield, supposedly there is a bullitin (or recall) of the washers holding on the exhaust.

Again, I have no rattles at 3K rpm after the dealer had the car for a week.

So in summary:

I am happy the car is not rattling. I am unhappy with the Porsche response.

If anyone wants more specific details, send me a PM.
