Noise while driving on the freeway, 65-80 mph?

[EcoGeek]

​

Hello, I have a 2022 M3 LR AWD. I have noticed that when I get up to speeds past 60 mph, I hear something flapping around. It feels almost like a skid plate on the bottom of the car is catching air or something. This only happens while I am on the freeway; when driving under 60 mph, there are no issues.
Could anyone shed some light on this? I've watched the online video explaining the odd pops and sounds you may hear from your Tesla, but this doesn't seem to match any of those. I'm eager to learn from your experiences and insights.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Why not have service check it out? You’re probably still under warranty.

Have you done a fine toothed comb walk-around of the car and looked extensively underneath it? I bet you can find something.

Can you open the windows when driving and tell where it's coming from?

Check at the front bottom of the A pillar.

If you think you hear something flapping around, then have a friend follow you on the highway and have them closely watch your car from behind as well as both "blind spots".

I found it, thanks, the skid plate is pulled back on the left and right side, in the front. Thank you for the feedback.

Thank you

Thanks, yes I’m actually taking the car in this Monday. I mentioned a few other things I thought would have been included in the warranty, but they sent me a cost for it. So I don’t know.

Tesla sends a cost estimate for every service request since they don't know if your request is covered under warranty or not until they see the car.

Oh! that is good to hear. I just wish I had known that before I canceled one thing that was going to cost me over $600. I most likely will have to make another appointment to have the other stuff looked at.
