We just purchased a 2015 Model S 75D AWD. It sounded great for the first few days. Now it is starting to make a sound. It is a very intermittent sound, it often happens when we either accelerate very slightly or slow down and the regeneration is happening slightly. I have two videos where we recorded it.
NOTE: We had just changed the tires on the second video, which is why the low tire pressure alarm is on, it just hadn't reset yet.
(you will probably need to listen with head phones)
Would this be the beginning of a drive train failure? If it is, I believe this car should be under warranty. It has 131,000 miles on it, but I believe the 2015s had an 8 year unlimited miles warranty. Correct?
I made an appointment to have it looked at as well, I want to be sure to document it.
Does anyone have experience with this? Does this sound like a drivetrain? It is pretty hard to hear. I think I can feel it slightly in the steering wheel as well.
Thank you!
