Hi all,

I found couple of threads discussing similar issue but none had a video to verify if the problem is the same. When on high setting, my r1t makes a grinding sound when accelerating.

I dropped it off and the service center is saying this is normal. But I have a loaner, an R1t with the same wheels quad motor that does not have it.

have you had this problem? What was the solution and what do you recommend?

Yes, mine sounded similar to this. They replaced the rear half shafts which resolved the sound. That said, I was given a low mileage loaner that had the same sound.

Oh I've heard that from flooring it the first time on an open road. Wasn't in high, but auto, probably normal from a stop.
