It is never relaxing to hear a noise in your car that you don’t know the starting point of. So, what if you discover a loud noise that persists on your PORSCHE 718? It is highly plausible that this is a minor problem, but before beeing sure, it is better to carry out some verifications. Whether that loud noise comes from the front of the car, from the rear, whether it shows up when you accelerate or when you are parked, our team has made this article to help you solve it. First, we will describe the possible explanations for the trouble according to when loud noise appears on your PORSCHE 718, and then we will look into the region of origin of the noise. In any case, if this noise persists, follow these suggestions to help you find the source.

When does my PORSCHE 718 produce a loud noise?
One way to discern a noise from your PORSCHE 718 is to determine when it appears. Indeed, some complications can be linked to parts that are only stressed under certain circumstances. It is this process that we will focus on in this first part.
Loud noise PORSCHE 718 when accelerating
Loud noise on PORSCHE 718 that starts when you are accelerating can be symptomatic of different failures. Indeed, if you encounter a noise that is louder and louder when you accelerate, it can come from a faulty turbo that will generate a much higher noise than during normal operation. Moreover, it is also highly plausible that loud noise on your PORSCHE 718 is in connection with a wheel bearing, which is one of the most common causes of these types of symptoms. Another alternative is that your exhaust pipe may have holes or a collar may have become loose. Finally, it is also plausible that the problem may come from a deformed tire or an unbalanced wheel that will tend to vibrate as it gains speed.

When my PORSCHE 718 is stopped
If your PORSCHE 718 makes a loud noise while not accelerating, engine on, the problem may be connected to poor air intake. An air intake hose that has come loose or has a hole in it may be the cause.
Where does loud noise come from on my PORSCHE 718 and how can I be sure of its origin?
Now that we have determined the origin of the noise, we will concentrate on the verification stage to be certain that this is the matter you are going through.

The loud noise comes from the wheels of my PORSCHE 718
As we have seen earlier in this article, loud noise from the wheels of your PORSCHE 718 may be connected to two main problems. If it is one of your tired bearings, it will tend to make a thumping noise that intensifies when it is under stress (spins faster and faster). So keep in mind to check by driving “fast” (neutral gear on and window open to hear only the noise of the wheels) that the noise is located here, if this is the case change it or them right away. If it is a deformed tire, don’t forget to visually check the entire tread area for linearity. If it is the balancing of the wheels of your PORSCHE 718 that is the trouble, you will tend to feel a vibration in the direction of the car as you go faster. In both situations, you will have to go to your technician to change the tires or perform a balancing.

The loud noise comes from the engine of my PORSCHE 718
In case you have identified loud noise as coming from the engine of your PORSCHE 718, the two most likely causes are turbo and air intake. In the first case, a turbo failure may also be linked to a compression loss during the engine ramp-up phase, so you should experience a power loss during your acceleration. If the loud noise on your PORSCHE 718 is related to air intake, the check will be done mainly visually, check all your air intake hoses by a visual control in your engine block to be sure that it is not damaged or disconnected which would generate an air intake, if it is just disconnected you can reconnect the air intake tubes yourself. Then check that the engine idle speed is not random. In case you confirm one of these two problems, take your car to your mechanic .

Loud noise comes from the exhaust pipe of the vehicle
If the noise you have discovered comes from the exhaust pipe of your PORSCHE 718, it is highly plausible that you have rust if your car is old and has created holes in it over time and therefore generates a very high noise close to aircraft noise on your PORSCHE 718, that a part has been cut off due to wear, or, finally, that a clamp has become loose due to vibrations. To confirm this, get help from someone who will stand under the car while you accelerate to find the exact area of origin of this noise. If it is a hole, you can repair it with a putty provided for this purpose, or, if it is a collar, “reattach” it. If it is cut or the hole is too big, it is better to get closer to your mechanic.
