It may be a bushing going bad. You could send personal message to TIMCO as he has recently had his tranny apart.

Wow neat idea. Can you run in reverse direction on the same stretch of road? Could also have been a headwind.

It was something similar you cut it to shape and then peel the back off and stick it on. I got it in an autobody supply shop. I covered the whole front face- it made a noticeable improvement. I...

On a dry belt it might but not for a bad bearing. My car whined for the first 2 years. I thought it may be a characteristic of the 'flat 6' . Finally it got much worse and it was a tensioner. Really...

09 S or newer unless I go with a 996 TT. I may also purchase an 2000-4 S to strip down and make a street/track toy. I felt my previous Boxster was too nice to do this to.
