That's great! For the first couple of days, I wasn't sure if the whine was intentional and part of the UFO/spaceship theme sound for pedestrian warning, but then I realized it wasn't when I was hearing it even at highway speeds!Not here. Super quiet. Funniest sound I hear is when my wife backs up and you hear the crazy ufo sound
I think I've only owned budget cars so the suspension doesn't seem too bad to me. Not as smooth as my Toyota Sienna minivan, but I kind of expected that. Not sure how it is in the back seat. I know that on my brother's Mach-E, the front seats were reasonably good with suspension but the rear seats were terrible. The suspension would constantly bottom out and transfer all the shock from potholes without any semblance of dampening. But yeah, hard to tell if it is normal or not without other MY cars to compare against.Not sure about pitch, but do hear whines. Have dual pane front windows, yet it still seem noisy than expected, same situation, don't have another Y to compare to. Also feel like the ride is harsher / bumpier than I expected, heard Y is not the smoothest ride, but also heard they improved the suspension recently... if only there was another vehicle I can benchmark / compare to, then if it's different enough I can complain.
Thanks for the heads-up! Posted in your thread and I'll be watching that to see the outcome for others. Like you, it really bothers me, especially now that I know to listen for itMine does this, I started a thread on this last week.
It’s so annoying, sounds like a dog whistle! Sometimes I can hear it over the music and sometimes I can’t.
I do have a service apt scheduled but it’s not til June.
I didn’t notice it today while running errands, but I also had the music turned up pretty loud
Thanks. I did find those and some other reddit threads too. I believe the usual culprit in the occasions where they do agree to fix the issue are - A missing/incorrectly installed penthouse perimeter seal or an issue with the grounding strap on the rear drive unit.It seems to be a growing concern reported by more and more Y owners, and I have seen some from M3 owners as well. Most of these reports end up with quick dismissal by Tesla service tech, but some, albeit very few who pressed Tesla for a solution have gotten them fixed by replacing and/or installing for the first time (how does this even happen?!) the insulation striping around the rear battery component; sorry the name escapes me.

Definitely schedule a service appointment, and demand results. We're not talking about rear belt buckle knocking around during the drive kind of problem anymore...
