I've started noticing this a few weeks ago since the temperatures are warming up. When I turn on the AC, there is about a 10 second delay then a motor starts to "spool" up, independent to the fan speed, and after about 5 seconds it becomes very loud. Louder than if I had a ICE under the hood IMO. It is not the fan blower motor because if I turn the AC off then back on again the fan blower are still on "hi" and the loud motor noise stops at least temporarily.
Maybe it is a condenser fan? Running on overdrive??? It just seems very loud to just be operating the AC.
Also there is a substantial KW drain when the noise exists. I don't know the number but more than normal.
I called Tesla, took a while but they should be scheduling a visit to the service center next week. Have any of you had this issue or noticed it?
