Hi
I have a 911 Turbo S Cabriolet. After two years and 22,000 km it's developed a clicking noise/grinding on braking and on sharp turns e.g. car parks. I can only hear them at low speeds but they are quite loud. The car hasn't been driven too madly and as I live in Dubai never in the wet.
Porsche are telling me that these noises are a normal noise from PCCB brakes and relatively common, it is the PCCB mounting catching on the wheel. However, having had other 911s albeit without PCCB I've never had this kind of noise. They seem to be suggesting that a design flaw is actually normal.
I'm told that the brakes don't have a problem, the noise is just 'acoustic' however I am very disappointed in the response and wondered if anyone else had had similar issues with PCCBs. It sounds like a quality control issue more than anything.
Would welcome any opinions.
