Description of the problem	When i'm giving gas/ accelerating, there is a "hissing-sound" coming from outside and more clearer and louder to the passenger side person position. Can hear it even clear if i roll down the windows. Sound starts coming anywhere from 0 - max mph no matter which roads i drive in. Don't know for sure which part of the car is doing the sound but "acceleration" is the causing it and when i let the car roll without giving gas, the sound stops. So you should definitely give gas/ press acceleration pedal to hear this sound. Its been 9 months since i purchased this car and has roughly 11k miles on it. (tiguan se 2018 4motion) sounds from driver's side b column is also noticeably loud when driving.
