I was able to significantly reduce wind noise by a series of changes. In my case, the majority of the wind noise was from the top of both front side windows, at the top. 1) Make certain the rubber seal that is inserted into the roof line, is fully inserted. Mine was dropping down at times in...

I followed this video and did the adjustment. I did several other things as well. It reduced the side window wind noise.

I was able to significantly reduce wind noise by a series of changes. In my case the wind noise was actually from the windows and not the windshield. 1) Make certain the rubber seal that is inserted into the roof line, is fully inserted. Mine was dropping down at times in spots. 2) Try to...

I was able to significantly reduce wind noise by a series of changes. 1) Make certain the rubber seal that is inserted into the roof line, is fully inserted. Mine was dropping down at times in spots. 2) Try to isolate where the noise comes from the most. In my case it was the top rear corner of...

I don't know if you finished yet, I'm just seeing this now on Tuesday. Yes, you can disconnect the entire wiring harness if you wanted to. I did see a video on that. But I've never done that. None of my changes to seats, thus far, have required that extent of removal. I just remove the seat...

I know you are looking for a response from the original posting. But I've done a lot, a lot of work on Tesla seats. I'll throw in some useful information. You can put various spacers between the springs and the foam of the seat on the driver's side. I prefer to install blocks of foam to get...

I haven't worked on Model S but I bought the older seat cushion bottom from the Model S. I also have cushions and seat bases for model 3 and Y. There was a refresh at the end of 2016/into 17. I think then they used a standard seat base across all models in the newer cars. The seat cushions in...

The rear seats have each have a person in seat simple sensor, like the driver's front seat has. Not the complex one that determines size and weight that the front passenger seat has. Therefore, any weight over a rough threshold and the car thinks someone might be seated. The only work around I...

I've purchased a number of used seats. Many are worn, have obvious discoloration (black seats), and permanent-looking creases or bubbles. From that, I feel the seats are too fragile. With dogs, iIwould get seat covers.

I've bought used seat bottoms from all models. I cannot tell any difference in the foam or metal base and have used them interchangeably. As far as I can tell there was only an early change to appearance. That's not the case for the Model S, which had a huge change around the 2016/7 refresh. Now...

I find the seats very uncomfortable. Especially on long drives. I have sensitivity and found any lumps or bumps and squeeze all very annoying to painful. The seams are held down deeply into the foam and you should not feel them. I speculate that one of the clips pulled out of the foam. That foam...

I cannot answer that because I don't know who is doing the work. I also don't fully understand what you need to do, what precisely is broken and needs repair. If all you need to do is replace the switch handles that you move, I find it easy. People have fear of breaking the switch but they both...

There's a really good YouTube video that removes the entire seat. If you need help still, please respond. George Borrelli Crystal River Florida

How do you order parts from Tesla ?

That's too bad that you lost the group to train with. That is a major drawback with a "less popular" art. Too few schools. But there are folks that are harder to find, willing to train all over.... When I first started, I had to do a lot of travelling to train. Finally became and instructor and...

You can very easily add some padding where the lumbar support goes. Remove the head rest. Pull off the back cover. Have a foam piece and insert between the yellow plastic and the white foam. Let me know if you have any questions. George Borrelli Crystal River Florida

I have a 2022 Model 3 P. The seats turned out to be just awful for me and my body build. Seems most average people don't have problems and actually like the seats. But a growing number of people, especially people a bit larger, and slightly wider in the bone structure are hurting after long...

The Newer Tesla Model S seats are in the same frame as all the model 3 / Y. I have that frame in my shop. I've rebuilt the seats to resolve my back, bottom, hips, legs, head, neck issues. I could not sit in the stock new seats long at all. The new design involves completely replacing the foam...

I have a friend with a 22 Model Y with interest in adding cooling to the seats. There is aftermarket cooling but it's a big job to install. I think it's just a fan that blows through a replacement cover they provide. It is most likely the seat reflecting heat. But it could be the heater somehow...

I have replaced the seat sensor in the Model 3 / Y. I don't know if they are different in the Model S. The sensor in the Model 3 / Y isn't really that difficult to deal with, IMHO, after modifying seats here for some time. The sensor in M3 /Y is a flat wire sensor that is glued to the top of...

Did you get your issue resolved ?

Yes, that's me....

Yes, I have taken it apart. There are some good YouTube Videos. Also the entire assembly can be purchased. Let me know if you have more questions. George Borrelli Crystal River Florida

You can fairly easily make changes to the head rest. The head rest is "easily" removed by using a flat head screw driver and pulling a tab while lifting the head rest. A simple fix is reinsert the head rest backwards. I bent mine back instead. George Borrelli Crystal River Florida

The driver's seat sensor is very simple. But the wires are quite thin and it can fail electrically. I can only explain the design, as I'm not certain what's going on in your particular situation. The driver's seat sensor is a simple flat wire sensor that is glued to the top of the bottom seat...

Yes, I am George Borrelli and teach Systema. Let me know if there' any way I can help.

It was also painful for me. I completely rebuilt the seat bottoms. Now I can drive indefinitely. George Borrelli Crystal River Florida

I have a complete solution for many sufferers. After buying many seats and foam and seat metal bases and trying, trying trying, I have what is near perfect for us. I have completely rebuilt my two front seats, and now love the seats and the car. My wife also loves the modification! Our...

I tried cutting the bolsters and after much driving and testing it wasn't enough of a change. The fundamental problem is the Tesla stock foam is super soft and sits very low. If you are wide in the legs and hips, you'll feel the metal base. Also, because the Tesla foam is so soft, you have zero...

That worked. Thanks

I ship to other states. Possibly world wide. Just started making them.

I modified the entire seat and now loving it. I'm larger and initially the bolsters hurt. Then the entire seat and head rest. I pulled the stock foam from the bottom and replaced it entirely. I experimented with formed foam from other cars' seats. I now love the seat bottom. I removed the head...

That is the seat occupied sensor in the Left Front Driver's seat, but may also be used for all three rear positions. Location is glued to the top of the foam pad and underneath the top "leatherette" cover. The dog would have to rip open the seat cover to get it. But in the back it might be...

After update 2022.36.2 my frunk will open itself under these conditions only. I'm out of the car. I open the left front driver's door. I open the left rear passenger door, and the frunk opens on its own.

I have a fix and information. My brand new M3P really began to hurt after the first long ride. I am a bit larger in frame than the average bear. I'm 6'1” and 250 lbs with large hip bones. At first it was the narrow hard wings that hurt me. But this hurt feeling expanded to not liking riding...

That does help. I did that until I implemented seat design changes.

I have implemented seat fixes. These apply to all Tesla models after 2017. Except the headrest fix might only apply to the Model 3 and Y. I have a new 2022 M3P. I am 6'1” and wide framed with wide hip bones. Normally sized individuals will love the stock seats. Us larger folk will not after...
