Intense Hum/Vibration Upon Starting Vehicle

[DreiM]

Currently have a MYP with roughly 2,500km on it. Most recently, I’ve been hearing an intense Hum/Vibration coming from the front of the vehicle — between the Frunk and the Driver area.

It sounds as if something seems to be starting up? Maybe? Just curious if anyone else is experiencing this as this is the first time i’ve heard this noise. Only difference I can tell in terms of the vehicle settings is that the AC is kept off.

I should mention it’s somewhat cold in Vancouver at the moment. (Around 0 Degrees Celsius)

Appreciate any input!

were you navigating to the superchargers when that happened?
Preconditioning can cause the similar noise as well as the heat pump.

No, this was just in front of my home. Also happened when I left work today too — same thing.

Now that you mention heat pump after the intense Hum subsided there was a low frequency hum which did get quieter as i turned the Fan Level down (Turned down from 4 to 1)

heat pump working sound = normal

It's the heat pump. It's kicking on full blast because the car is parked outside and it's very cold. Totally normal.

I recently purchased a 2019 MS 100D and am experiencing a similar hum or vibration.

The 1st time the vibration occurred, I was supercharging and the hum remained after charging for approximately 5 minutes. The 2nd occurrence I was about an hour into my drive, and again without any related input from me, it started humming again.
Outside air temps were about 80F and definitely, not driveline related.

Any idea what may be causing this?

Thanks
