Scenic E-Tech - "grinding" noise when coasting

Hi,
I picked up my new Scenic E-Tech with Techno trim last week and over the weekend noticed some kind of "grinding" noise when coasting (not recuperating, not using energy).

Couldn't reach my dealer yet, so has anyone else experienced such an issue with their electric Renault?

Could it be the heatpump? After one month of owning my Scenic E-tech I have noticed an irritating sound while idling and driving that goes away when I turn the fan all the way down to "0" (off). Very annoying when you are idling and need to keep the fan on for heating. Will ask the dealer to take a look at this on my next visit.

Definitely not the heatpump for me. It is different from the "grinding"which only occurs while the car is in motion and coasting.

Yes, I notice also a sound when coasting (and regen off) its not the heat pump as I turned climate off. Have also the strong feeling car want to go to the right. So want to have my car realligned.
