Has anyone found a cure for this as my car has only done 19000 miles.
This really drives me mad .
Apparently this is a common fault as the valve has wear on it.
Only just had the over heating problem sorted by Porsche after 3 attempts.
Also As I’m on here do I have to use Porsche disc breaks to keep my extended warranty as mine have worn down according to my last health check.

If the car is under warranty you can get lucky and Porsche will change the exhaust.
Are you sure it is the valve - 2000rpm rattle ?

Yep. Mine is the same but stops once the cats are warm (meow).

Regarding the brake discs, you will need to use official Porsche parts to maintain your warranty however, front discs and pads are easy enough to do at home but the rears can be a PITA as you need to reset the parking brake and need PIWIS or some form of service tool to reset it.

You can have brakes done at an Indie and this 'shouldn't' affect the warranty but best to check with your OPC.

PSE rattle and valve delete, valve mapping

As we know the exhaust valve have a tendency to rattle when it opens at 2000rpm. On some other Porsche models the valve have it´s own mapping, open/closing depending on gear and rpm. On the 718 it looks like there only is the 2000 - 50km/h limit. My valve starts to rattle from time to time and...

On my 2018 BGTS i did not have any issues with the handbrake since it was the internal shoe variant
I just had the handbrake off when i swappedbrake discs
