Hi Guys

Got a month old City, did my first servicing. Recently, i happened to drive it out without my music on (normally will blast it real loud), i hear a swirling whoohoo sound when i depress my accerater about 1/3 down, or 2/3 release vice versa. Is it normal? Cause to me it sounds like a disc brake or a tire thingi sound. advise?

Car stationary no sound le. Sound like the wheel noise. Seems to come only from the front.

O... Then go back to KM since car is still under warranty... It could be wheel bearings as mentioned earlier by a bro....
