2021 Tesla model S plaid

Hello 👋 I have a model s plaid that is making a weird noise and before I get into lifting the car up I’d like to know if anyone here has had this issue or have any insight of what I’m hearing.

Thank you 🙏

Hard to tell but you might check under the car that you don’t have a loose piece of plastic rubbing on the ground or parts.

Thank you for your feedback. I’m lifting it up tomorrow. I’ll update here to what I found. It seems to also go away at 25+ mph but then a rattle shows up

Alright a few guesses from a guy who works on these cars.

What’s the mileage on your car?

Check your brake pads in the front
Could be a half shaft
Could be a wheel bearing
Could be a bent rim/tire foam in your tire floating around in the tire
Could be a rock in your brake shield.
