Below are measurements i made on my Raven model S at 55 mph and 35 mph using a Zoom H2 recorder and Audacity FFT analysis.
Peaks (tones) are observed near 4 KHz at both speeds and more peaks at 11 and 13 KHz at the higher speed.
It appears that the high pitched noise is simlar to that reported in this thread.
My guess it ithat the noise is related to the new front motor.
I would like to have this fixed, since I did not hear these whistles on my pre-Raven S.

Hi, sorry about you issue.Hi Guys,
Just want to share my recent experience with Tesla. I bought and returned 2019 Model X due to some high pitch sound in Cabin.
I wrote my whole experience with some technical analysis here. For people who are thinking buying one,
please definitely check out following post: Why I returned my 2019 Tesla Model X?

Hi, sorry about you issue.
I'm a little puzzle now about getting a Model X. Test drive are a little bit short for making a decision.
I was considering to rent one over the weekend to get a better feeling but finding a Raven is not easy.
I know you can return it but this seems to be a lot of trouble too.
Yes, renting one for couple of days would be a way to go, I wish I have done it.
- I was wondering if you were able to get your payment back, or how long it took or will take to get it back?
Still waiting on my payment. they told me 4-6 weeks.
- Just by curiosity, what equivalent car you bought, or plan to buy istead, or hesitate or been hesitating between?
We plan to test drive Lexus RX450h, GLE 450 and audi q7.
- Would you recommend trying finding a pre-Raven instead?
I think it depends on the car condition and remaining life of battery. You can certainly look into it, but do some research.
I am considering trading in a 2018 Model S for a Raven S. Very interesting info here. On the short test drive I had, I did not hear any high-pitched whine, but I did not know about this issue at that time.
I listened to the audio sample the OP provided. I can hear the 4 KHz whine in the beginning of the clip, but it got much fainter after about the 7 second mark. In real life, was the whine amplitude constant (at a constant vehicle speed)? Anyone knows whether the problem is more severe in the Model S?
Is there a way to rent a Raven S for a day? Or maybe get a longer test drive to take it to the freeway?
Doesn't any of the Bay Area showrooms have an S Raven you can test drive?
I just test-drove the raven S a couple of hours ago. I can hear the high pitch whine, but it's at a very low level. I don't think I would be bothered by it.
Get older?If you are one of those who is annoyed, what to do?
Yes for me, it was constant and therefore annoying from about 50-80mph.I am considering trading in a 2018 Model S for a Raven S. Very interesting info here. On the short test drive I had, I did not hear any high-pitched whine, but I did not know about this issue at that time.

On the Model 3 LR AWD, you can slightly hear when the front motor get engaged, like when doing sudden accelerations,So both the performance and long range have the same noise?
Does the 3 have the same whine?
