Buzzing under hard acceleration

[DastardlyDave]

Recently I have noticed a loud buzzing noise from the engine and vibrations in the steering wheel under hard acceleration. It only happens when I am full throttle getting up to speed. Mostly in third under full boost. This is in comfort mode. Has anyone else experienced this?

i get kind of a rattle from the engine but i've only noticed it in Sport mode. this is usually under quick, heavy throttle inputs around 3k rpms.

I get that same sound when I roll the window down ? it’s the well know rabbit hole echo.

i thought that was on coasting deceleration. but if it can rattle on acceleration, that would make sense

I just experienced a similar thing. You can feel the buzzing in the steering wheel. Almost like a pulsing buzz as you accelerate hard. Feels weird. This was in 3rd and I was able to replicate multiple times on the road.

Is this a normal occurrence on the FL5?

Mine is a few months old and 1k miles.

The dash buzzes too, but that is not what im feeling in the steering wheel.
