PDK noise
I posted this on the Cayman forum (I also have an air-cooled 911) but thought I may get some response from this forum. I have a 981 Cayman S which is making a shuuuk shuuuck noise at low speed in first gear. It isn't very loud but discernible. I live 250 miles from a Porsche dealer so am trying to get some feedback before taking it there. The car has 50K miles and has never been tracked.

No idea. I'm also not sure what shuuck shuuk sounds like either - does it sound similar to anything else? I would try Rennlist. More people there that are familiar with the newer cars.

Are you able to capture audio of the sound?

Can you get it on a hoist. Even a local garage to avoid the 250 mile drive. And see if it does a shuuuk shuuuck noise and try to figure out what's actually wrong. Hopefully a false alarm situation such as road debris stuck in the wheel assembly.

Went for a drive yesterday and couldn't get it to make that noise so its possible that it was debris. Going to the dealer tomorrow for their view. Thanks to all.

I previously had a 2009 Carrera S with a pdk that would periodically make a weird clicking/shuttering type noise when going to reverse. My solution was to get rid of that car and keep the air cooled.
![]() Sorry if that's a bit dramatic, but the pdk (the early units) are often a non serviceable part, designed to be replaced. ![]()
