Annoying rattle/knock when going over bumpy road

[TWHMan]

Check the seat belt/buckle, mine rattled in front and back right on bumps.

Yes, the front passenger side seat belt keeps hitting making annoying noise. I kind of tucked it on the passenger seat to keep it hitting on the sides.

So now that everyone is confused, we need the OP @ppcarter1 to show us how he fixed his rattle with the flapper that is not there for anyone else who tried !

Ok i will send a pic later but i have wrapped everything in kitchen roll so see what happened. This has provided a solution to stop the rattle.
The picture wont help as it looks awful.

The porsche centre have said they will replace the whole thing next week so will uodate then.

i’m confused. I have the same annoying sound, but I don’t have a flap in that area. Any insight from the Macan EV owner who fixed it with paper towels?

Mine looks like this:

Lubricate the metal part…it’s not rocket science!

Except that in my car, that’s not making the rattle noise

I think the OP created a fictional "solution" or is just massively confused. Description of the fix is non-sensical as there is no flap anywhere near the loop in a Macan, unwilling to provide a photo and non-sensical reason as to why, brand new member with no other posts. Are you sure you're talking about a Macan EV and not some other car??

Asked to my SA if any "new" version o specific market has the flap, he asked the tech area in Germany and there's no flap on the Macan family (by default).

 

[ppcarter1]

same here, no flap in EU.
I ll keep on investigating on that noise,
My initial guess was to check on the central armrest on back seats or the trunk panel

I just wrapped some kitchen towel around the ‘loop’ part of the bracket and that stopped the knock/rattle.
Its going to the dealer to sort properly next week

Why do you have to be such a dick and post rude comments.

i had the problem, someone provided a solution, which worked. You will see from the photo below there is kitchen towel wrapped around the latch. It stopped rattiing. Simple, so it seems that i am not confused, its not non sensical and i have a macan 4 ev thats 1 month old. Clown

This is a photo of my simple fix that was more of an attempt to see if this was the issue as opposed to a long term solution. I just wrapped some paper towel around the latch on the bottom of the boot, also there is definately no flap. The car is back with the dealer on tues to resolve properly.

i would also like to state that i initaially found this forum a great help but some of the comments are rude, obnoxious and disrespectful.

Wont bother again.

See below, i just wrapped a paper towel around that latch. Not sure what all the ‘flap’ talk is about as there isnt one.

This was just a quick idea to see if it helped, and it has resolved the probelm. Its back at the Porsche centre this week to get a proper fix. Give it a try, the noise was driving me nuts so this was just an amazing difference.

I have noticed the exact same issue. I'm bringing mine in for service on Friday to have them take a look. I suspect it has to do with the parcel shelf. Will keep you posted!!

Did you see the fix suggetsed about the latch. I pit some kitchen towel around it to see if that stopped it, it did. Not a oong terms solution but helped idetify the problem. See pic

 

[ppcarter1]

@SergeyIndy y Can you please post a pic of your solution so I can link it in the issues thread? Thanks

See pic, did this just to see of this was the problem, and it was.

Thank you for sharing!! I’ve forwarded this to my SA. My car is at the dealer now to have this looked into (as well as the fact that both the batteries in my key fobs have died twice within 2 months of owning the car!!).
