2022 MS Refresh - “howling” echo sound at cruising speed

[auto]

Hi, just as the title says, at cruising speeds of 80-90 kph, I can hear a howling sound/echo in the cabin that appears to come from the wheel well area or the undercarriage (this is with no music and windows up). It has a distinct “electric sound” (wife described it as a spinning dynamo) with a higher pitch that is sharp to the ears. I can’t always replicate it but certainly there and it’s not super loud but enough that when it happens everyone in the car can hear it.

Any idea what this could be? I have a service request open but I fear they won’t be able to reproduce it. Trying to get a video with sound ahead of the appointment.

FYI I have winter wheels on 19x9.5 and 245/45/19. I have yet to test with the stock tires in case they’re the culprit which I’ll do in a month’s time when the weather gets warmer.

try turning off ANR in the music settings and see if that changes anything..

Genius! That was it. Turned it off and the sound immediately went away. Had to wait for it to calibrate and that’s when the sound was apparent. Feels like Tesla still has some work to do to optimize the ANR.

Thanks again!

I’ve been having the same problem, and it’s super annoying that ANR keeps turning itself back on, too.

I was wondering if it was related to having aftermarket winter tires and rims, but can’t really say for sure. I don’t think I’ve checked to see if my 2022.4.X beta build still does it, but it was very frequently a problem on the prior beta build (2021.44.X) with these wheels.

Noticed this as well. It’s random though, sometimes stays off and other times switches on automatically. A bit annoying to dig through the music options menu while driving just to check if it’s enabled.

The ANR is terrible and makes more noise than helping, and the fact that I keep turning it off only for it to activate itself continually makes it even worse
