There is someone on reddit with a video of an identical noise that claims Tesla replaced the front drive unit and this was the solution.

I rarely use youtube in the car but randomly decided to this morning after the update and sure enough, 360p locked. :(

I took my M3P in today and as expected was turned away with no fix. “Verified noise with customer on site. Upon further inspection i found that this is a normal characteristic of this vehicle due to high tolerances between the halfshafts and the front drive unit. This noise may lessen as more...

Any luck with the motor replacement, @Allblack ?

I have a similar/same issue on my new '22 M3P. I'm hesitant to take it for service as based on past experience I don't have much faith in them fixing it. Anyone have any luck?

@driveeast Did this ever go away? My brand new M3P is making the same exact sound.

I have access to the service manual. For what it's worth, the service of "Power Conversion System (Remove and Replace)" is a 2.45 hour labor job. It is filed under these categories: 16 - Battery System > 1630 - HV Battery Electrical Components

+1 Here. Like others, I just recently upgraded to a gen3 wall connector after charging with a mobile connector for the past 4 years and immediately got throttled to 32amps with the PCS alert. First available service appointment is a month away.

At least you'll know it will be safe, hopefully! I'm in Orlando and commuting to work this week. I spent the entire weekend and Monday washing, polishing, and ceramic coating the car, and I'm just now putting some real miles on it today. I think I may drive my wife's 2018 Model 3 for the rest of...

I managed to fix the speaker crackling sound that I had on my first drive home from delivery. I simply added some tesa tape behind the a-pillar speaker to stop it from contacting metal and shorting out. If anyone has the same issue at delivery and doesn’t want to wait for service, this video is...

Thanks! I wasn’t sure the $2k red would be worth it, but I have no regrets now!

Well, today was my delivery day. Given the really poor customer service experiences I’ve had with Tesla here in Orlando since 2018, I was skeptical that there was even a car ready for me until I finally saw it in person. They pulled it up to the front within 5 minutes of my scheduled time. I...

My final docs just came in in the app for review/e-sign. Looks to be the same docs that have been previously available via Tesla.com. Less than 24 hours to go!

Good morning, all. Nothing new here - just waiting on my Friday delivery and cringing as carvana and other used car prices rapidly drop for my trade in. I just noticed something that I wanted to point out in case anyone else is unaware: My app still does not yet show the final documents for...
