I know this thread is a little old but I have this on my seats, early build 2016 Model X.

Do you happen to have the part numbers for this? I have a 2016 that suffers from wind noise and would like to try and replace these seals. It's literally the only thing that bothers us about the car.

Someone on my local facebook Tesla group had their 2018 Model 3 battery go kaput right out of warranty at 132k miles. Tesla is quoting them $15k for replacement so they're looking at third party options for replacement. One thought i had was why not swap out the pack for a used one from a...

You are in LA. There are plenty of third parties that can do the replacement for cheaper than Tesla. https://qccharge.com/pages/service-your-ev https://www.evfixme.com/ There are probably others too...

This is kind of a niche question for those with AP1. Is it possible to install and wire the side repeater cameras from AP2 cars and enable them so they come up when putting the car into reverse? I don't care much about them coming up when using turn signals or sentry mode or anything else. It...

I heard someone here tried to drain all the adhesive gel and trying to put it back together but not sure how successful it was. It's either screen replacement or bite the bullet and go with the MCU2 upgrade. There might be third parties that can do the replacement for cheaper than Tesla...

Update - As mentioned below, the car has been officially sold. 2013 Tesla Model S P85, Multicoat Red VIN: 5YJSA1CP1DFP11606 Mileage – Est. 145,000 mi (see below) I’m the second owner, purchasing the vehicle in February 2017 at around 67000 mi. Asking price - $10,000 or best offer. I...

The kind of nice thing about the radio upgrade is that the cost is the same ($500) whether you do it at the same time as the MCU or later on. So if you don't get it done initially and find that you really want it, you can get it done later for the same cost (Assuming they don't raise the cost .)

Came across this while surfing the interwebs...

Thoughts after the upgrade? We have an AP1 Model X as well and I want to do the upgrade as well since we plan to keep it for the long run. I heard a small change is that it shows traffic data on the driver's display map when navigating to a destination.

I just want a hardwired inverter that I can use in an emergency to power a fridge, a few lights, or maybe a small mini-split depending on the weather. Hyundai and Kia do it so come on Tesla, is that too much to ask?

Technically not 4 extra years, but 4 years or 50k miles from purchase so pretty close. It was an early AP1 2016 model with 33k miles, ordered in late December 2019 and picked up early January 2020 so my CPO warranty is valid until January 2024 or 83k miles. Later that same month, Tesla...

Sounds good. I'll take another look at the seals and put this in as a service request along with a few other things in a few months. I bought my 2016 Model X the last month that Tesla offered a bumper to bumper 4 year-50k mile warranty effective from time of purchase on used cars they sold...

Let us know what you hear. I've noticed that the front passenger seat does not get nearly as the other seats and have wondered if this is worth bringing up as a service issue.

I have a 2016 X 75D and around 9 months left on my CPO warranty. I've noticed that the seals are very sticky to the touch but they have not deteriorated like I've seen in some pictures posted in this thread. We garage our car so I assume that is what has helped over the years. Is it worth...
