In my case, going from 44 to 39, helped. And the LR with 19'' was better, but still had this kind of vibrations. Keep in mind that the LR that you tested could have 18'' and low pressure... that would make a very big diference.

Can you post your and your friend tire pressures and mileage? Also, the LR has 18'' or 19'' wheels?

I saw this today, and I'm afraid it's the car. I tested two other cars with my local SC chief mechanic: Model 3 Body High Frequency Vibration . That's why they are suggesting testing other cars, so that you understand that everyone is on the same boat and lower expectations. It will be worse...

The frequency and amplitude feel similar, but with higher speed, it's more constant. Naturally with higher speed and depending on the road, you get more "natural" vibration from this type of road/suspension/wheels of the M3P, but this tingling/buzz vibration is different. The thing that made...

Great! We didn't test the 18'', only two 20'' and one 19', but this could give some pointers on the influence of the tires/wheels/suspension. One other test I was able to do, was to drive the car in Neutral, to take the engine out of the equation. I can confirm that this kind of vibrations are...

We are still in lockdown around here, but today I had the opportunity to try lowering the tire pressure. I went from 45 psi to 40 psi and at low speed (<80 km/h) I would say that the vibration is there, but much subdued. Higher speeds, like 130, 140, it feels the same. One other thing I did...

That could explain why with the new tires and more pressure (45 psi), this high frequency, low amplitude, vibration is more prevalent. One other way of explaining it, would be like the vibration mode from a phone, after a long trip you end up with a tingly in your feet. I could try to lower to...

It's not permanent, but it's almost always there, even in low speeds, like 40/60 km/h. It's not high amplitude, think of it like a buzzer kind of vibration. Use light shoes, put your foot on the dead pedal, or even on the car floor, and you will feel it. If I had to guess, I would say it's...

I do love the car, the performance, the technology, the interiors… the exterior, but coming from a German brand, almost 2 years ago, some things should be talked about more openly. If for nothing else, to be properly addressed. Four months ago, I started a troubleshoot process with my local...

Hi, I would like to have the service manual. Thanks!

I had exactly this problem. Thank you Firebat!!

The Portugal sale manager that finally called us after we returned the car this Monday said that there are no similar cars to our configuration in PT, Spain and France, so he can't get replacement in short notice. He suggested that we make a new order but it would only be delivered in June...

Well, the car was returned Monday. The delivery center manager is still MIA, the PT sales manager called and is trying to find a solution. One of them is to make a new order... but how do I explain to our management that we would still be without a car for the next 2 months after all we went...

The windows deformation seams specific to this, but there are other reports of similar issues. In our case, the windshield was deformed, the roof glass was bent on the sides and the rear glass was heavily deformed in several places.

Update: The car was returned yesterday, late Monday afternoon. Again, in the Delivery Center, no management present to talk with us, to apologize to find solutions. No one, no where. Later on the day, before scaling things up in the European Tesla organization, we posted our experience in the...

There's a possibility the frame is warped and pressuring the windshield. That could also explain why the roof glass in bent out on the sides. What should I be looking for to identify a bent frame?

I will keep you guys posted on how it goes Monday. Regarding glasses, this is not related to glasses. The windshield deformation is seen without glasses and drivers without glasses still get the nausea after a bit. The deformation is not immediately apparent but the delivery specialist, when he...

Last year we reserved a M3 Performance to be delivered to Portugal. This was a company decision based on several key factor like running costs, taxes and, this might seem atypical in some places, but we also factored in employee happiness in our decision process. The idea was to start with one...
