718 Cayman Rattle

[SK555]

PHers I have a bit of a strange issue with my 2018 Cayman S. I have noticed intermittently that when I hit a bump the rear passenger side of the car emits what I can only describe as a jingling sound (think keys or sleigh bells).

Speed, temperature etc don't seem to be a cause - it feels like it emerges randomly and is only audible from the outside (I.e. i can only hear it when the windows are down).

I took a video of the underneath of the car and nothing looks loose - suspension also otherwise seems fine.

Any suggestions?

Broken spring? They can sound exactly like that. Maybe a piece at top or bottom, not the whole thing snapped in the middle.

Also check your wheel bolts. The collars rattle when loose.

Might not be applicable, but I had something very similar on a 996 that took me ages to find; it was the handbrake shoes/springs rattling and it went away if you put slight pressure on the handbrake. Adjusting the handbrake as per the manual made it go away. Not sure if a 2018 Caymen will have the same setup though?
