I hope someone who has more experience/knowledge than me can help to try to find out what this could potentially be. Car is a 997.2 Turbo S.
I will take the car to a local indie for them to have a good look at in the coming week but first thought it would be good to ask fellow members for some advice and to try and rule out simple/basic things which I could possibly at least inspect or maybe fix myself.
It's a squeaking/creaking type sound, like leather rubbing against leather I suppose, 100% seems to be coming from the inside and also sounds like it's coming from the back of the car. The driver seat/behind the driver seat is where it *sounds* like it's coming from.
-Speed does not really affect it, same sound/volume at 10 mph as at 90 mph
-It's there nearly all the time when car is moving, nothing at iddle
-It's there weather I have a front passenger or not
-At last service in Dec driver seat was taken out/put back in, some insulation added under plastic bit where boot/engine release buttons are- this has no real impact, neither improved it nor made it worse
-I was told all window seals, mirrors, etc are fine no problems there
-You can hear it at very low speed, for e.g. it starts even when reversing out of drive sometimes, or driving very slow for e.g. less than 10 mph
-Definitely can't be heard from the outside if standing next to car as it moves
Could it be something to do with passenger seats/or rear seatbelts (which I have also left in rather than out).
Any and all suggestions welcome, hope someone has an idea of where to start looking...
Thanks in advance.
