I’m not sure I’m in the right section, but let me ask this here before chasing my tail with more test drives. I drove a Macan 4 on a highway and observed it singing between 65 and 70 mph. It is similar to tire noise or remote control model motor noise. Anyone else?
The Macan had 21 inch Michelins. I’m not sure what driving mode the SA selected but It was a mode that will gently slow a bit when the throttle pedal is released, not a coast mode. The singing was louder on deceleration. The SA thought that stretch of highway was noisy, so I didn’t pursue it. I’ve since driven my other cars on that stretch and they were quiet, no songs. So I now have second thoughts. But before I go back and drive another sample I thought I’d check in here if this is a known issue. My forum search didn’t find anything.
