I hear a clicking noise like this whenever I move the wheel to the right at a really low speed

But if it was on a CV or Ball joint then it should have made the noise even at high speed. But it makes this noise when it is running at like 10km speed or something.
And it makes this noise when I either move the steering wheel completely clockwise or anti clockwise.

If this only happens when your wheels are fully turned either way, it's likely the brakes rubbing on the rotors. Try disabling or enabling hold and varying how you apply the brakes to see if it changes the noise. People have reported differences depending on which combination they do:

Loud noise when turning in drive
Just took delivery of a M3P and noticed when I turn all the way left or right in drive, it makes a very loud creaking noise that I can feel as well. This only happens in drive and not in park or reverse. Here's a video: Is this normal?

So I sent them the video and they changed my appointment from a service center visit to a mobile visit and said that it is under warranty so removed any service cost related to it.If this only happens when your wheels are fully turned either way, it's likely the brakes rubbing on the rotors.

I tried changing from Hold mode to creepe and that in fact changed the frequency of how frequent the click. Also, there is no sound when the wheels are turned all the way at high speed, and only audible at speeds around 5-6kms(No wonder I noticed it quite late).

its some rubbing, i have that too but not all the time. figured something is clearing something by 1mm so when things get a bit warmer its touching.
Hey I was able to get it serviced. The guy told me it has to do something with the torque.
Adding the invoice to help other tesla owners.

Soooo I actually got the car from Sydney and moved to Melbourne so had to get RWC in Victoria and maybe they did that (I assume).
But this clicking sound started coming in just recently.
Happened the same to me. It was On and off.
Initially, I thought it was due to cold or rainwater or something because that is when I hear it.
But read about how people say it is something to do with CV joint so I decided to book a service and later provided them with a video so they turned my service to mobile and said it is covered under warranty
So my suggestion would be to book a service for your peace of mind because I just could not ignore the sound and make sure to send them the video when you are making an appointment. If it is not anything serious they will just change it to a mobile service.
Surprisingly tesla service people are quite good at judging through videos and photos.
But again I am damm sure it is nothing serious with your Tesla too (As the sound is ON and OFF)
