Thanks for the input. If it's differential related then not too much to worry about. I will change the transmission oil and make sure the grade is correct.by Maico - Main Forum
The noise is about the same at any speed over 20 MPH. When the clutch is disengaged the noise all but disappears. The noise can be heard in any gear but most noticeable in 5th gear over 50 MPH when the gas is off and the car is coasting. As soon as you press the gas pedal the noise goes away.

Just purchase the car this summer. Now that I know the noise is there I can hear it with the top down but faintly. With the top up the noise is quite noticeable when you take your foot off the gas and goes away as you accelerate. Coasting with the clutch in reduces most of the noise. I don't hear any noises from the engine that would indicate belts or accessories nor do I hear wheel bearing tyby Maico - Main Forum
Love the response D but that doesn't resolve my concern.Mikeby Maico - Main Forum
The first time I drove my 2006 Boxter with the top up I noticed a whine when decelerating and it almost goes away with the clutch in. As soon as you take the car off compression the sound disappears. Engine runs well, clutch is good and uses no oil at 80,000 Km's. Thanks, Mikeby Maico - Main Forum
