    Rattling sound when accelerating

    My 2019 Model X Raven has started rattling/clanking/clunking only while accelerating. As soon as I take my foot off the accelerator it stops. I never feel any vibration or shudder. Never the less the service center intake person thought it was likely the half shafts - she said early on you don’t...

    Less positive X-care experience

    Depending on what app you use to look at the redacted invoice, either just the first page shows up or all the pages show up. When I first looked, only the first page showed up and all you really see is a 12V battery replacement. Only when you can see the additional 2-3 pages do you get a clear...

    Don't buy an X in a snowy climate

    Gosh, my Model X works great in Lake Tahoe during the winter in very heavy snow. The difference may well be that our temperatures warm up significantly during the day and it rarely stays cold for prolonged periods of time.

    2019 Raven - What to do? - (warranty, new prices)

    I’m in the same boat. 9/26/23 my warranty expires. I’m going with the XCare additional 7 year 100,000 mile extended service contract since I usually keep my cars a long time or give them to a family member.

    2020 X blind spot camera when turn signal is used

    I took Lectric_Agent’s advice and purchased these mirrors. https://smartesla.us/products/tesla-wide-view-side-mirror-glass?utm_content=ios&utm_medium=product-links&utm_source=copyToPasteboard I just installed them today. The improvement on the highway is DRAMATIC. No more blind spots!!! It’s...

    A little direction with a crash!

    Whenever I’ve had this happen to me, it has turned out that my foot was contacting both the brake and the accelerator pedal simultaneously. However, this was in my Acura and not in my Tesla. I’m sorry about your accident.

    Cannot force trunk to open all the way inside garage

    I have the identical problem on my 2019 Raven and this proposed solution has NEVER worked for me. I’ve tried it more than 100 times over the past few years.

    2019 Model X - Keep/Sell/Warranty?

    What’s the TMC code, please? I’m planning to purchase once the battery pack is covered (for a higher premium).

    Whining and squeaking noises. What’s causing them?

    Easiest thing is just look at the tire size - front tires should be smaller than the rear - e.g. my 2019 Raven calls for: Tire Size (front) 265/45R20 (rear) 275/45R20 (Offset sizing)

    Whining and squeaking noises. What’s causing them?

    Re: the sound on backing up and turning - work wasn’t recently done on your wheels/tires was it? If the larger tires from the rear ended up on the front that can cause this noise.

    Another Tesla design FIX, Rear view camera and rain

    Did you position it over the camera while the plastic was still warm and it just stuck in place? Or did you use some other technique to get it to stay in position? I tried something much cruder than this last week - you absolutely cannot have anything extending to the sides or under the camera...

    steering Wheel Scroll/Select

    Reading the original post more closely, it was actually not my scroll wheels that were malfunctioning but rather the button you push to give voice commands. The whole assembly including the scroll wheels were replaced to fix my problem. It happened twice. If I honked my horn, it would then...

    My scroll wheel assemblies have been replaced twice by mobile service when they stopped working. Mine also is a Sept 2019 Raven.

    Must run staggered tires ? 2754520/2654520

    275s in the front on my 2019 Raven rub on sharp turns. For my snow tires and wheels I use four 265s.
