Noticed this in my garage today.

Less than a week out from delivery.

Its like a buzzing sound on Starting.

Hmm. That does sound odd. I do know they make sounds, but it's typically fan sounds. I'll send out a tweet and maybe get some owner's opinions.
 
This noise stopped a few weeks after my last post but has come back recently, especially with the hot weather.

Has this been established as normal? THere are much more M3 owners now since the last post and upon research, it seems a lot of people are having this.

Part of the cabin overheat protection or battery cooling?

Or should I call Tesla and have the fan belts checked out?

Thanks.

This is normal. My car does it and I asked the same thing. Its just a fan sound from 2 things. Whenever you open your door the AC will usually turn on and when you come back from a drive it will have that sound for sometimes a long time after. Mine sometimes does it for like an hour after driving. That is the battery cooling system or your AC preventing your car from getting that bad smell that most 3s get. hope this helps!
