I am not sure if this is an issue, or just a sound I need to get used to but I have to ask to be sure. Tried doing some searching here but didn't find anything relevant (at least with the search terms I used).
Minor details about car before getting into the details: 2016 GT w/PP 300 miles. No other options.
When pulling into my driveway, which is a little steep, there is a very noticeable grind/scratching sound as I progress up slowly. It is coming somewhere from the front of the car, possibly in the center or towards the passenger side. It does not happen while stationary, and it does not happen when trying to replicate on flat ground. It does go away if I am a bit more liberal with the throttle as I climb the hill(but that's excessive and annoying in a driveway).
I have noticed the sound, or at least one similar, briefly occurring while driving around town. Particularly when I transition between engine braking, and being on the throttle(the order doesn't matter). It is also possible that it is occurring between gears, but with the noise of shifting itself I can't accurately make that claim.
Below is a video of the sound as I pull up my driveway. Three notes before you watch. 1. You'll need to turn it up a little bit. 2. At the end of the video I pull the hand brake and it is loud because the phone is next to it. 3. You'll notice a quick "chatter" a second before me pulling the brake lever- that's just me pressing the clutch pedal quickly.
