Car Feels Unstable at Rear - 997 C2S Oct 04


Recommended Posts

Hi, I have a problem with my October 04 - 997 C2S. The car has suddenly started to drive very oddly. The suspension at the rear feels like something has broken. The car wobbles from side to side, noticeable when manouvreing at low speed and especially when going over very small bumps or undulating surfaces. Also at high speed, during motorway driving the car squirms at the rear.

This problem is made worse when you turn on the sports mode (which I understand stiffens the suspension.)

The main Porsche dealer (I'm in the UK) has the car in from today to assess the problem, but when I took it in a couple of week ago they said they could find nothing wrong with it. There was no broken components and the PASM was showing no fault on the diagnostics.

I have read this thread:

...and wondered if it was possibly the same issue, although the dealer says they have no record of any TSB that covers this subject. (I also cant find anything in the TSB section of this website?!?!)

Can anyone help or advise? If Porsche wont acknowledge the fault I'm a bit stuck.
