PorschePeePaw Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Hello all, I am a first time Porsche owner and have had my Cayman for almost two years. Recently i have noticed a slight shimmy, wobble kind of feeling upon starting out on a drive. It lasts for a few miles and then goes away?? I can feel it under my seat and towards the rear of the car. There has not been any other problems whatsoever that I am aware of. Anybody ever experience this and/or have any thoughts, ideas, recommendations? Puzzled PeePaw!! :-) Thanks for any responses!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
extanker Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 sounds like the tires are flat spotting from sitting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PorschePeePaw Posted December 20, 2021 Author Share Posted December 20, 2021 Ok, I had not thought of that! That would make me feel much better! I've read about the IMS bearing and dreaded that possibility!! I do not drive it daily and the tires have about 20k on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 How old are they? That's more pertinent for flat spotting. The rubber deteriorates with age and that age can usually vary from tyre to tyre. Failing that, try waiting for the engine to warm fully and then take it out. If the issue doesn't appear then your mounts are likely worn and can't dampen the engine sufficiently during warm-up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
