    Drivetrain clonk!

    I notice in my CTT powerkit model, when slowing down at a junction that there is a clonk feel/sound that seems to come from the drivetrain. It doesn't seem to be causing any problems and I am not sure if it's just chracteristic of the vehicle. I seem to feel it through the brakes rather than hear it directly.
    Anyone else have similar happen?
    I have 12k miles on clock.

    I had this too ALL the time since I bought the car, according to Porsche this is within specs, whatever this means. It was sometimes annoying but I got used to it. Nothing to worry about but sometimes I really got a KICK in my back (seat), so I wasn't too happy about it.

    Re: Drivetrain clonk!

    I've had the same "issue" with mine since purchase more than 3 years ago. I've asked several times about it when the vehicle was in for service and my dealer said they've seen it on a number of the Cayenne TTs. Apparently, Porsche has told them its "within specs and not a problem". I no longer worry, just drive...hard. Otherwise, and short of a few initial "sound system problems" resolved by replacement (2 different times), the CTT has performed brilliantly. I'd buy another without hesitation. Enjoy.
