So... I purchased a set of these just about a month ago from AliE, specifically "Autoparts Global Store" they arrived quickly and without incident. Three weeks later my wife curbs the *sugar* out of one. :rolleyes: So I order another set, exact same color, same AliE supplier, etc. They arrived...

I hope thats not a bad omen for me as I've still got my teins NIB sitting on the garage floor... The UP "mild" springs are supposed to be a bit softer than stock, I've been debating grabbing some of those myself, but not really interested in lowering the car so we'll see. I wasnt able to dig up...

swapping out the teins already?!

Historically they have had that ability, I know because it was done to my vehicle when our state AG threatened to sue tesla on my behalf, granted this was early 2021 at the height of the pandemic on much earlier software. Now at various points in the software lifecycle they will have schema...

It very well could be new code that's causing the error to appear, but I'm not sure what you are looking for in terms of case law or legal precedent. I think this is another instance of needing to take a different approach then one would with a traditional car manufacturer, think of the car as...

I love me some small claims, IMO its one of those great institutions that almost nobody uses and everyone is some what scared of, but once you go through it a few times, its the fastest way to get *sugar* done. I had to threaten tesla with a lawsuit early on in our ownership when it took them 5...

Then what is it for? You seem very confident in your understanding of the mechanics of this feature, but I cant find a detailed explanation anywhere. I have been told by service center employees it affects: the speedo calculation via the wheel speed sensors and ABS.

Yes, I have checked into that possibility a few times and this feature has never been turned on for my profile. I'm not a big "one pedal" driver, I like to use my brakes. There is in fact a setting in the menu to select both the diameter and the compound (standard or winter), Tesla is mum on...

Hello PNW-er's, I'm about to do some suspension work on my model 3 and I wanted to see if anyone had a low profile jack they would be willing to let me borrow for a day or two on the west side of PDX down through the Tigard/Tualatin/Sherwood area? I'd be happy to throw $20 or a 6pack your way...

I do believe there is a possible ABS/brake modulation issue that folks may not be giving enough attention to. I have posted about this on here, and gotten feedback on the various tesla subreddits. I experience the scenario multiple times a week in all weather conditions after swapping on my...

Appreciate it. That's been the biggest sticking point holding me back, I don't want to dump it with the roads I frequent. I would love some MPP adjustables, but unless I'd like to get divorced soon I need to reign in the car spending (at least until my wife wants some big purchase ;) ) I've been...

Can someone help me understand, why am I only seeing the EnduraProPlus fronts and backs for the SR/+? The only option I can find on the tein site for the performance/LR is: which says its a "kit" including front and rear dampers. Is it simply they dont sell the fronts in single qty's? Thanks!

mods: (@jjrandorin) can we move this thread or split off the posts that are model Y specific? I get excited every time I see a new update to this thread, only to be let down its model Y info that doesn't pertain to the model 3 at all. (model y OEM ride height of 184mm vs model 3 at 153mm)

I dont precondition anywhere that I use sentry, but I wonder if its not the high voltage contactors engaging (that loud click/thump) when the battery is engaged either when charging or before use. I've gotten lots of sentry alerts in my time, but only once has it actually set off the alarm, so...

Thanks for the reply, I was hoping they'd be the new "comfort" suspension (10/22 and later) I'd really like to get my hands on the dampers and see what all was changed. Good luck!
