I noticed this yesterday, while sitting in traffic, the sound is from outside the cabin, under the front or "frunk" of the car and the only way to describe it is a clicking or ticking sound.
When I got home and parked the car, I got out to investigate and the sound would come and go, in terms of frequency and also loudness but when I locked the car as the fan (or whatever) started to wind down, you could tell this clicking sound was rotational, like a fan hitting a cowling and as the fan or other rotating device came to a stop, the frequency of the sound got more spread out until it stopped.
Now, when I was inside the car, I completely switched off the climate, which made no difference to the sound, so I'm thinking air pump or some other heating or cooling device?
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. I called Tesla (was their breakdown line) and they said they would try and get an appointment but given there is a 2 week wait on getting my charge port looked at, I'm not that hopeful of anything this side of Easter.
