got my Cayman 2.7 in Sept and recently had a couple of worrying issues that OPC haven't been able to solve - by the time car returned to them the issue has gone without trace. Posted on this previously but didn't get any other users with similar experience, so trying one last time.
It's a metallic rasping noise that happens periodically, sounds like a metal on metal (tin) rattle BUT it very intermittent and only lasts a matter of seconds then is gone again for some time. No loss of power during the noise and generally only happens at low speed. My question is, does anyone else have this and could it be caused by twigs/small stones getting into where the fans are? I live in the wilds and most roads are covered in small twigs and debris.
The car was taken back to the OPC in November and they had it for a few days and basically stripped the engine bay without finding anything - even drove the car with the internal covers off so that they could hear anything happening that shouldn't, nothing.
Any thoughts, don't really want to send it back to OPC again without some form of evidence that they can look at.
Thanks, Colin
