Buzz/rattle from the rear of the car.
Thought it was the parcel shelf but I closed the sunroof shade cover thing and it stopped. Opened it again and it re-appeared.
Just need to get Porsche to fix it now.

It may be OCD but.............have you guys noticed that both front doors rattle a little when closed? Rear doors close with quality 'thunk' but BOTH front doors close with a brief FAINT rattle from something loose within the door?

For me...
* The bungy net on the underside of the parcel shelf rattles a bit, unless you put something in there.
* The right-hand side coat hook in the rear doesn't rattle, but it looks like it came from a Kia's reject parts bin.

Yup, I had an annoying rattle for weeks, turned out to be a lonely midget gem in the rear part of the passenger door pocket... Once consumed, problem solved

Agree B737NGWS, disappointing lose sound from the front doors, not the quality thunk you would expect...

There's a wee slide thing on the belt. Slide that all the way up and it stops the rattle.

Well I am sort of glad it's not just me but agree they should 'thunk' shut!

The roof bars that I was checking out over weekend (well really more of a clunking) - really should take them out of boot

Nothing on my car but if you pushed me, worst rattle would probably be a Tommy tippee one

You guys are so OCD!

Rattles in a Macan are not a problem.

Ride a Harley Davidson at 70mph and above any everything rattles and I am not referring to the motorcycle.
