Love these tires - just took them off for the winter. Miss the efficiency gains i had from running these until now.

I did testing last night and took a video/pics i sent to Tesla. Essentially the passenger side has the low-beam/regular night beam bulb blown. Everything else works perfectly - high beam, Daytime running light (the lower brow) etc. I opened a ticket with Tesla asking if they could simply just...

I have exact same issue on 2017 MX . $3500+ quote. I started looking at eBay and wasn’t sure what I needed and if this is something I could even attempt or best to bite bullet.

Hi All - reporting back after 3+ months with the E-range. Bottom line they are great - tons of heavy rainstorms with no issues and i'm still enjoying over 5% range improvement over the ConTis. Close to 7000 kms so far. I highly recommend if you're looking for a solid alternative to the OEMs at...

Update: Over 4000km now, many heavy rain storms and no issues. The tires are less noisy and better range than OEMs. Still Averaging about 5% improved range. Now lets see how the tread life does.

After a week of intense rain here in Toronto the Sailun's have held up great including one panic stop in pouring rain on highway. We're up to 1200 kms now. My wife can't tell of any degradation from the Conti's. Noise is definitely better and we continue to see ~5% range improvement. If these...

Update after 750 Kms and some pretty wet and coolish weather here in Toronto… still seeing 5% better range. 248 wh/km on the Contis before change and 235 wh/km after the change. Wife loves how quiet they are and no issues in some of the recent heavy rains

First big long highway trip in rain upto cabin on the Sailun’s. Saw about 5% range improvement and performed great in the rain. Perhaps most impressive suprise is the reduction in noise. Really quiet as the YouTube review points out even in rain. Really start to notice other annoying sounds:)

Understood re: reviews - this one here was interesting to me and the comments from author in the YouTube comments thread. Interesting to learn about their new Cambodia factory and the state of art process used to make the Erange. After watching this it pushed me off the hump and decided to give...

On my MX Seeing approx 5% improvement in range with Sailun Erange vs the OEM contis and noticeably less road noise on most surfaces. All and all living up to the few reviews that are out there.

Haven't had that chance yet but will report back. Wife drove the car all day today and really liked them as well (she is primary driver and often notices the smallest things)

So far so good - going to watch it on the drive to cottage this weekend which is usually the big test

I ended up taking the plunge on the Sailun's for my Model X - so far so good - Anybody try Sailun E-range tires for Model X?

Ok everyone - i took the Sailun Erange plunge today and got a set of four mounted for $1310 CAD out the door at local Taylor Tire!! I must admit i was a bit nervous but after the 50km drive back over mixed highway/street i can confirm range improved slightly over the OEM Contis, noise was better...

I had issues finding them as well - got the $1200 quote and when i went to schedule time they changed tune and couldn't get them for weeks. I'm riding on almost no tread depth so needed to source sooner. Found a place in Markhim ON called Taylor tires - they quoted $1310 installed with taxes in...

Thank you for update. 10% is more than I would be willing to sacrifice given long summer trips to cabin where current OEM contis get me there and back with about 10-15% battery to spare

Yes that is the trade off but specs and the few reviews out there seem positive. If anybody knows place in Toronto area that carry Hankook Ion stock please let me know. Seem to be pretty rare find here.

Also wondering if anyone has ventured and tried the Sailun Erange EV Tires - they seem almost identical in approach and setup

I am pretty much sold on these for my 2017 MX. Challenge is finding stock in the Toronto area - i badly need to get the OEMs changed this week as inner rear treads are gone. Anybody have experience with these on the MX in particular??

Looking at the Hankook Ion's as well. Very little info on them but the specs look great - especially rolling resistance/range.

Is the range hit on your CC2 still about 10%? was wondering if this would lower as you break them in

Can anybody share more range data on the Cross Climate 2? is there a noticeable range loss from the OEM Conti's?

Love to understand if there was any range hit. I have these tires and the Sailun Erange tires on my list to replace OEMs (looking for 3 season as i run dedicated winters)

This review is the Sailun’s is quite helpful. Seriously thinking of taking plunge for my 3 season tires (I run Michelin winters)

Noticed Pirelli just launched the WeatherActive line to compete with CC2s. In reading up on both, it would appear a 10% range hit is quite possible.

How do you like these tires after almost a year?

The Cross Climate 2's look like a great option - thank you for highlighting. Looks like i can get them for $1600 so a decent savings and the treadwear looks to be atleast double. Curious if anyone has a preferred Pirelli?

How is the range hit on the CC2's?

Hi Folks - i know there have been a lot of tire threads in the past but looking to see if anything has changed in 2023 with newer choices for 20" MX setup (265/275) setup. Tesla wants $2500 Cdn to replace the OEM Conti's on the 20 rims which seems rather insane just for rubber. Treadwear has...

thx for the feedback - Sailun seems to emphasis in this "EV" specific tire that the sidewalls are reinforced etc. I may take a pass and let these tires be in the market for a while.

Got a quote from local tire installer - $1200 (CAD) for set of four installed vs. $2400 CAD for Tesla to install the OEM Contis. I am very tempted but can't find a single review on a X. I'm not fussy about high performance - want a tire that will last, quiet and efficient.

The new Sailun Erange tires are available locally for my model X and about half the price of the OEM tires. Specs seem decent and range may actually improve. Anybody try these yet?

Anybody have any estimate on what it costs to replace the two rear Mando brake assemblies? i believe they come with the parking brake actuator pre-installed as one unit.

Well it was worth a shot to see if I could drive it to dealer and save $200 on the tow. I believe that entire brake assembly will be replaced by Tesla and probably overdue at 140k kms. Only saving grace is failure happened in garage vs on road trip. We will need to get the car out on skates and...

Well i got myself into bit of hot water. I got the actuator off but the screw head broke off. It has a weird gear pinion that goes into the brake assembly and i had no way to manually turn that. I tried all sorts of bit shapes and nothing was snug. I guess it is tow time + expensive replacement...

HI Folks - i have the integrated parking brake / single caliper setup on my 2017 MX. I have the dreaded parking brake fault and can't get Telsa out of garage and a tow would be super expensive. I've seen multiple videos / tutorials on how to remove the actuator from older X/S models where the...

So got the wheel off my 2017 MX and i definitely have the integrated parking brake. I see there is a motor/actuator driving this as well but unsure if this can come apart like in the older models. Does anyone have a tutorial on this? i see two bolts that seem to be holding the actuator onto the...

I just got home and checked out my 2017 MX. there appears to be no seperate parking brake caliper. Is this now integrated into main brakes?

Very bizarre - just got home from bus trip and looked at rear wheels quickly and I don’t have a seperate caliper like in the vids/pics. Possible it is all integrated into the main caliper?

Very helpful - many thanks. Found a YouTube video showing how to remove and check. I think worst case I remove the actuator and it can be fixed but I can drive it to Tesla and save $500 on flatbed tow.

What is worst case if you take off the parking brake motor and it is beyond saving? Could you drive the car to dealer or is it too risky that car would roll while parked? Reason i ask is Tesla wants to send a flatbed tow truck to pickup car which will be atleast $500 just for the tow. I'd...

super helpful - i have a "park brake fault" on my 2017 MX and will give the above a try

Is there possibility of greasing it and clearing debris to get it to free up?

Hi - folks - my wife got the Parking Brake Failure warning this Am and car won’t move. Lots of snow/salt here so suspect something g seized. She called Tesla and they said reboot and did some remote diag and said a flat bed tow would be needed:( Tesla hinted that likely something seized /...

Have a 2017x with FSD and computer upgrade. Got the camera update notification today. My existing side repeater cameras have black covers - curious if these new cameras are physically the same as original or is there a slight difference. Do they replace anything besides side repeaters?

Thanks a bunch for that. They sent me a quote for only $275 dollars in parts to replace both upper arms. I complained in the request that i had the upper arm recall service done in 2021 and now the issue. In meantime, i tried to spray around and inside the rubber boot on the upper arm above the...

Thank you - very helpful. What exactly is the "Bash plate" - i will make note of this in my service request. I had a recall service in Nov where they did work on the upper arms and greasing them so i've reopened that case in the hopes they look at this under the recall request.

I think i just joined this creaking club. We were away for 5 weeks and car sat undriven during that time. Two days back and it is creaking really badly at slow speeds over any bumps. I can push down on the car when it is parked and make it creak on the driver side. QUESTION: How does one inject...

Glad you like the Draw-Tite. We have had ours for 14 months now on a 2017 mx 100. The thing has been awesome. We are getting a new wake boat on weekend that will tip the scales at 6000 lbs with trailer. I am tempted to trailer it the short 10k route to boat launch but currently have a friend...
