anon_uk Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 Hi all, I have had a really annoying noise for the past couple of weeks in my car when cornering. It seems when driving at low speeds (a couple of mph) an almost 90 degree corner, more noticeable on a left-hand bends I can hear what sounds like a metal sliding to the right-hand side of the vehicle; when sat in the drivers seat I think it comes from further forward. A couple of months before, although may not be related I had a Porsche specialist replace both strut mount tops. Already looked at - Battery is secure Nothing in front trunk Nothing lose in driver cabin Nothing in door pockets I did take the car to a german car specialist and they couldn't replicate the issue, and couldn't find anything wrong. On thinking about when it happens and the sound, I wounder if it could be something to do with the anti-roll bar? Any thought? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mavrik Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 Could it be something loose in the door skin? 🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briggy Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 Any juddering from the steering wheel? Does it do the same when reversing? Does it stop when braking (or get worse)? Are the wheel bolts correctly tightened? Is the noise a scraping noise or a rattling noise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder Beanoir™ Posted February 22, 2020 Founder Share Posted February 22, 2020 Can you hear a sliding noise, or is it just a clunk? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anon_uk Posted February 27, 2020 Author Share Posted February 27, 2020 Thanks all for the replies. @Tozerman I tried removing the toolkit, no change @Mavrik I did think that also. I tried swinging the door open/closed to try hear the noise and nothing??? I might end up removing the door card and checking anyway... at some point @briggy No juddering from the steering. I would have to try doing a reverse J-Turn at speed to replicate. I haven't touched wheel bolts, as i'm really no mechanic. No scraping or rattling. @Beanoir No clunk, just sounds like metal sliding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder Beanoir™ Posted March 1, 2020 Founder Share Posted March 1, 2020 I wonder if a tool or a bolt/nut was left in the car when you had the work done recently and it’s causing the noise... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
