whining sound from the power steering pump
#2
Yes, I have this also, very noticeable with windows down and driving slow or slowing down. Once you press the clutch in the sound goes away. I think this is common. I posted this inquiry awhile back on Funcars and couple people mentioned that they also noticed it.

I had a very high pitched whine (from the rear of the car) which I thought was the turbo. It was very load when the car was stopped. It sometimes went away when I depressed the clutch. When I recently went to a track event, someone else with a turbo said the noise was not right. He thought that it might be the bearings in the fan motor. Since the track event, the noise is gone completely!

I don't recall how they are related, but a friend's 996 leaked power steering fluid and it not only started groaning on turning the wheel, but the clutch action was affected , too.
I'd have a tech check the power steering pump / lines.

My car has the same problem. Usually it happens when going through traffic. My dealer's excuse was that my car is lowered with coilovers...
Does anyone know if a TSB has been issued for this problem?

Oak...
You know what, I'm starting to realize that all the problems in my life are due to the H&R coilovers.
Any chance I get, I'll stab the coilovers! I had dinner with Tyson and Wilbur the other night and they even totally gave me hard time about the coilovers...

Ah......Chris, we all love ya. I would love to take a look at your set up some time. I'm curious as to what's going on with it. I have had mine for awhile now and it's been awsome. It's just now starting to feel like it's getting to the "sweet spot".
