C4S whiny sound from rear end on 3rd gear.
I have a 02 C4S which I bought last year and it has 37k miles on it. It's in almost perfect condition. I've been hearing this subtle whiny sound coming from the rear end which always kicks in on 3rd gear. I have showed it to two Porsche mechanics including the dealership and both assured me there is nothing mechanically wrong with my read end. I was wondering if any other C4S owner is experiencing this noise as well.
