Noise & Vibration - 8 hours at SC, they found nothing.

Hi all,

For the past 15K miles with my Model 3, there has been a very strange feeling in the steering wheel and pedals around 67-68mph. It can be felt a little lower or higher than that, but that’s where it’s the loudest.

The issue presents itself as a pulsing low-frequency (200hz) or less noise, but only when steering left. The logical conclusion is wheel bearings but both the SC and other mechanic couldn’t feel anything. The problem is it’s only really apparent on newer roads, otherwise the road noise will drown it out.

I’ve already done the following:
-New tires (moved from Michelin CC2 to Pirelli P-Zero Elect All Season Plus
-Fresh balancing
-Fresh alignment
-Have the SC diagnose for 8 hours and still not totally sure on what it is

It’s honestly frustrating because I feel like I’m going crazy and nobody else hears it. Has anyone on here experienced anything similar?


Best to listen to this with headphones or holding phone close to ear.
