powell - let me know...
bodybad (interesting sig name!) - I just torqued these to spec again after performing maintenance on my sway bars! LOL...so I already did 1 & 2! I will get to drive it hopefully today and pay attention to the noise if it is still present. I did not pay attention to it after maintenance.
I have 40K on the car...dunno if the bearings are bad...I don't get any play so I will check that too...thanks!
4....I'll find that b@stard! I was wondering where those ace cards came from! HA HA!!!!
JoeyG - your right...can't believe it! For the cost of these cars initially you would believe you would never have any kind of minor issues like rattling and such!
BBGT2 - Tires are good, thanks!
BLUBYOU - no beans here today...ahhhhh, Chipotle!

pm me your email. I can send you the tsb w/ instructions. You've got to replace a piece of teflon tape under the dash, requiring the dash to be pulled.....fun. If you have never done this then i don't recomend taking it on yourself. The tsb is porsche's official remedy. let me know
