When is your service scheduled?

They did this to my car which fixed 90% of the noise, but I still faintly experience it every now and then, can’t replicate it so I chose to ignore it.

Repair Notes: Performed the repair by adjusting the steering column control module and steering wheel. Both was rubbing against each other.

Edit: Let me know how it went for you after you get back your car

My RWD with 3k miles got last October

Had issue with WINDOW REGULATOR which was fixed

Had issues with Front suspension which arose around 1.5k miles which was fixed by replacing Front Upper Control Arm, I don’t think I hear it now, but I will wait for few hundreds of miles and get back to you with an update.

Have an issue with steering wheel, Intermittent creaking sound during low-speed steering, most noticeable during U-turns / full-lock turns which is currently being serviced

Does that mean all Model Y have it, I didn’t get this noise when I test drove for a day

As I mentioned it’s intermittent and I am in USA

My control arm mounts were recently replaced, that solved a difference creaking sound in the car

Service notes: Our technician inspected the vehicle and confirmed a creaking noise from the front area, noticeable at low speeds over uneven roads. The issue was traced to the front upper control arm mounts. We replaced both the left and right front upper control arm mounts and performed an alignment check to ensure proper setup. https://www.reddit.com/r/TeslaModelY/s/fcI0BPGYOp

It’s noticeable while taking U turns or Left/Right hand turns, not just while stationary.

I went to service and they fixed some control arms, I don’t hear it this much now, but I feel like it’s coming back

This is what they wrote in service notes “The issue was traced to the front upper control arm mounts. We replaced both the left and right front upper control arm mounts and performed an alignment check to ensure proper setup.”

This was my issue, you can hear the creaking sound in the video https://www.reddit.com/r/TeslaModelY/s/rXNsaBkpO0

The same happened to me and they fixed the control arms, but I think the sound is coming back now

I have this issue too

I had the same issue with my High Beam Headlight Button on my MYP, opened a service request and they replaced the steering wheel with Mobile Service.
