    Model S rear small drive unit oil drain/refill procedure

    Good evening everyone, Question here regarding the MS small drive unit. So in reviewing the service manual for the MS(2016), it specifies a very specific fill procedure for the rear, small motor DU that instructs to NOT fill the rear DU thru the upper fill plug, but to instead go thru all...

    Oil selection help

    Which oil did you ID as equivalent? I’ve already been down this road and I could not source the SHC629 in anything smaller than a 5gal bucket. I thought I had identified an equivalent oil, but luckily I did reach out to Mobil support to verify and the oil in question was identified as being...

    For Sale Template

    This was a great post and super helpful. I could see how any Tesla seller could easily share the link with a potential buyer to eliminate the guess work out of identifying all of the options a car may have. I would definitely add this to the sellers template. Thank you!

    MODEL S GEARBOX OIL

    What fluid did you wind up using? Having a hard time sourcing the SHC 629 and not in a 5 gal pail.

    MODEL S GEARBOX OIL

    On my 2016 MS90D, the fill plug is way too high on the front diff to be a fill-level indicator, and yes- you will definitely over-fill the diff, so I agree with you there. But on the rear diff, there is a specific service procedure to fill thru the output shaft hole once the cv axle has been...

    Tesla maintenance manuals to download where? Owner manual links posted.

    Looks like the manuals have been removed from their website.😞 Does anyone have a link to source the service manual information some where else besides the Teslas website? I have a 2016 Model S. Thank you

    Greetings from SLC

I skipped the Evanston stop because I had enough juice to get to SLC but really had to pee in SLC once I got there. It was nighttime, with no bathrooms available, so needless to say I won’t make THAT...

    Greetings from SLC

    Hello everyone, I recently became a proud ECSTATIC owner of a used model S! This is my first EV, and I haven’t had the displeasure of owning a hybrid yet either. And until last weekend, I haven’t even sat in or gone for a drive in a Tesla. Came close, but the opportunity slipped away. This...
