992 Turbo S Metallic Clicking Noise (Left Side Front & Rear) – Multiple Repairs, Stil

Hi everyone,

I’m writing here because we are honestly running out of ideas with our Porsche 911 Turbo S and I’m trying to understand if anyone else has experienced something similar.

The car is a 2020 992 Turbo S with approximately 48.000 km.

The car is currently back at Centro Porsche Modena after multiple inspections and repairs, but the issue is still unresolved.

The problem is a metallic clicking / ticking noise coming ONLY from the LEFT side of the car:

front left
and rear left as well

The sound is:

metallic
intermittent
more noticeable at low speed
noticeable during steering input
noticeable over small road imperfections
sometimes present even while driving straight
seems to get worse once the brakes/components are warm

Important detail:
the issue changed after Porsche installed 2 mm front spacers.
It did NOT solve the problem, but it altered the behavior of the noise.

Work already performed by Porsche:

front left driveshaft replaced
front left wheel bearing replaced
multiple inspections and road tests
further checks still ongoing

The strange thing is:

the issue is still ONLY on the left side
both front and rear
despite the replaced components

At this point I am starting to suspect:

center lock / hub assembly
wheel-to-hub mating surface
floating brake hardware/PCCB components
or some kind of micro movement/tolerance issue under load

I am also attaching a private YouTube link showing the exact issue on our car, in case it may help identify the source of the problem.

Has anyone experienced:

a similar clicking/ticking noise on a 992 Turbo S?
center lock related noises?
PCCB floating rotor noises that sounded like this?
noises affecting both front and rear on the same side?

Any insight would honestly be appreciated, because the car has already spent a very long time in the workshop and we still do not have a definitive solution.
