It's worth a try... If you do so, we can amplify its significance by having everyone sign, essentially turning it into a petition. I’m ready to join in

I had it replaced on my M3LR after seven visits to the service center. During my last two visits, the noise was evident, and they were able to make a clear recording. The team was helpful, but I believe they were following orders from engineering. Now, I'm experiencing the same issue with my...

Tech guy said it was a very interesting theory and he would check. However he was the newbie (coming from Jaguar and no training from Tesla.). After I got mad to have some explanations, they said they will get back to me after they receive a feedback from engineering. I don’t buy it… I’m really...

I would say the most obvious argument is that particular noise being characterized as « not normal » by various tech guys during test drives. And I got my M3LR FDU replaced under warranty…

So, I'm back from the service center, and can you believe it? Nothing's changed at all. That annoying noise is still there. I took a ride with the tech guy, and even he could clearly hear it. But get this, he's a total newbie with Teslas – no training whatsoever (seriously, how is that even...

Yesterday, I scheduled an appointment for my 2023 Model Y Long Range (MYLR). Just to provide some context, my Model 3 Long Range (M3LR) had its Front Drive Unit (FDU) replaced before summer, which nearly resolved the problem. I rarely hear the noise now, but currently, it's something I can...

@ev_go123 I can't be 100% sure it's the exact same noise, but I had something super similar a few weeks back, and it was driving me nuts. I finally figured out that the noise was coming from the gap between the car door and the car itself. The only thing there is that rubber door seal. So, I...

Quite fascinating... I've noticed that my wife's Model Y, purchased in May of '23, also begins to produce that noise in colder temperatures. I actually encountered the noise consistently in the morning a few weeks ago. However, I decided to take a 10-minute break in a small parking area...

@mstendal Thanks for the update! Very interesting... On my side, I have driven more than 300 miles since I got my FDU replaced, and it is still silent!

I got the car back with a new front drive unit. And guess what… the noise is gone (so far) :D I drove only 250 km but the FDU is silent. I tried multiple speeds in the morning with a cold car : nothing ! However, I think I could hear it a fraction of second during a deceleration. It was way too...

My tesla tech told me he had disabled the front drive unit during a test drive and the noise was still there. So definitely nothing to do with the inverter, probably a purely mechanical issue.

Guys, quick update: I brought the car for the 6th time so they can « record and compare the car noise with another car » , said the tech. After 2 days of investigation and exchanges with the engineering, they decided to replace the front drive unit ! Job is expected to be done next month. I’ll...

@jurde, the noise pitch is so high that I’m convinced they have a hard time to record and listen to it. If I play my videos on my EarPods, I don’t hear anything at all ! But the speaker of my phone reproduces it quite well. Unfortunately when I got there multiple times, they used EarPods or...

It was the strongest I’ve ever heard. With freezing temperatures, surprisingly, it can get weaker. To me, worst conditions are : cold car around 5-8°C (46°F) and immediately on the highway cruising at 90 km/h (55 mph). It seems it changed a bit over time (since this recording). But of course...

I have no words… I asked a copy of the recording. Very surprising there is « no » spikes in frequency when I can see the 10 kHz spike on my own record.
