Hi All,

i don't know if this is a problem or not but when i turn the wheel sharply either left or right (mostly right) i feel like the tire is slipping. this is noticable in slow drive. sounds like clicking.. any ideas?

Thanks

Same here, but because I had a Macan before with 21" wheels, Im familiar with it.
Its called "Crab Walking" if its possible to turn more slowly, it dissipates.

It’s because you have summer tires and it’s cold. Perfectly normal
Thanks for your answer, the car is parked is 3 floors underground where is it very warm and it still happens there.

I will have Porsche dealer look into it.

Thanks

If the parking floor is slippery then this can happen too.

Perfectly normal.
Be prepared for the dealer to roll their eyes at you if you decide to take it in ;)

check your tire pressures, I bet you are over inflated

low profile tires on tight turns can do this regardless of weather / temperature (from experience!)

I recommend going to the dealership for this, because, why not?

Perfectly normal, depending on tire size and wheel base size this can happen specifically at sharp turns at low speed.
