Not sure how else to describe it besides what I put in the title.
If I knew the correct terminology for this I'd spend some time researching it on my own but sometimes you just have to ask for help to even get started.
In an ICE car with a transmission and other complicated stuff in the drivetrain, a little play when going faster or slower is not unheard of, and often there a straightforward mechanical fix. But with just an electric motor I'm worried this could be a really expensive problem
2016 P90D 50,000 mi
Just began to notice it a few thousand miles ago, now getting more noticeable.
Easy to reproduce: pick a speed, 0, 20, 60, any speed, but let's say 20mph, then give the accelerator pedal a bit of a press and after a really short delay you'll feel a tiny bump when the power arrives. Now you're going 25. Take your foot off the pedal. You'll feel a tiny clunk as it switches from acceleration to regen. Now you're going 20. Repeat as often as you like. Thud every time.
Any ideas?
