It sounds from the rear right side, like a clunk or a "wooden tick" or something close. It happens when going on low speed and especially when there are many small bumps

It could be your Track "trailing" Arms.

Thanks but wouldn't Porsche specialist already have found it, if that was the issue? They said that I need to change the two front Sway bar links for sure but they said that the rear ones are OK. They asked me to loosen up the back of the car, in order to identify the source of the noise?!

You may need the front sway bar links replaced. I don't think that's going to take care of the noise issue you're having in the rear. Read the thread and get back with your Porsche specialist about it.
