Cause of problem

Action needed

This might be a known issue with Porsche that requires exchange of the door insides.

Due to the infrequency of the rattle and/or the context required to make it happens, dealers often aren't able to reproduce the problem and won't be able to fix it. If the dealer is able to fix it, one reported fix is to remove the b pillar cover and pack in "foam".

Another dealer attempted to fix this with the following write-up:

TO PROPERLY FIX CONCERN WE HAVE TO REMOVE ALL 4 DOOR PANELS. TO PROPERLY CORRECT ISSUE REMOVED ALL INTERIOR DOOR PANELS. UPON REMOVING FRONT DOOR PANELS THE UPPER RETAINING CLIPS WEREN'T INSERTED CORRECTLY ONTO DOOR PANEL. PROPERLY REINSTALLED FRONT DOOR PANELS AND VERIFIED ALL GUIDE TABS WERE INSERTED PROPERLY UPON INSPECTING AND REMOVING REAR DOOR PANELS THE GUIDE TABS ON PANELS WERE INSERTED CORRECTLY ONTO DOOR CAUSING THE GAP BETWEEN DOORS AND PANEL TO BE VISABLE, INSPECTED ALL TABS AND ALL WERE IN CONTACT.

But this did not fix the problem.

As a self-fix, you can insert foam pieces into the door panel gaps: instructions.

Sound deadening on the panels can reduce rattling while also potentially improving audio quality. Learn more
