Parts and labor? Good deal. Last I saw the arms were about $90 ea..

Samsung T7 1gb portable SSD on sale at bestb today for $89. Goodcdeal of yout going that route. Hey, anyone else having typing issues on the forum? Sentences getting spaced way apart, cursor jumping around when trying to fix typos. The more I try to fix it, the worse it gets. Had to type this...

$100 Samsung T5 SSD going strong for 3 yrs. 1 yr in 2019 and 2 in a 2020. Been flawless and have it partitioned with a bunch of music on the other half. Just to add it's also going through a taptes usb hub. Hopefully it all continues to work well.

Met him to at a couple other local shows myself. Very nice guy! Small world. Here is a couple more pics. I'm also surprised we haven't seen more pics of it on here.

Try to do something to block the foam from going back up the intake. It will take the path of least resistance. 👍👍

In regards to this part, I thought the same thing and tried some temporary pieces of cardboard placed in the filter locations to force more foam into and hopefully through the evaporator. Worth a try. It took 2 yrs for my first smell to appear but after Klima (1 can) with the cardboard I'm going...

Good point, that's definitely a possibility. Something to check and verify. I hope that would not be the case but unfortunately we all know about the reputation of some service centers. There is a few bolts that also hold them on so I don't think they will fall off but missing clips could cause...

Since they had your rocker covers off to paint, it looks like part of the clips that are used to hold the rocker panels up to the car. There are some metal clips that go over the rubber pieces. Here is a pic of them installed on the rocker covers before they are installed. I had mine off to...

Good find and great info, thanks. Now we wait for availability...lol. You would think they would transition fast into production and be available soon after. Either way I'm good for a while, just had mine replaced under warranty at 36k and still have my other sets ready to go with the...

The boards work great for clearance with the 3 and the side skirts. I didn't have luck with rollers either. But I did install a couple of cheap handles that really help moving them alor. And some tri-roller dollys that I use to roll them around until its about halfway under the car, then remove...

Wow, did this really turn into a debate about oil on a TESLA forum? On a topic about upper control arm warranties.... Wait don't answer that. Someone will write a 7 paragraph article on how its relevant and related.. Dont get offended now, just pointing out the hilarious twist on how the topic...

Lots of pictures available of the front side of the evaporator and the drain. Just not much available of the back side of the evaporator due to access. I posted some on page 8 of this thread. Here is some more....

As noted above, Is this specialized equipment used by Tesla? Yes. That said, is this equipment required to do an alignment at a non-tesla shop? No. But this also depends on the shop and their capabilities and who your askjng (we know what teslas answer is). As you said, "any qualified shop"...

Lol, My bad for not paying attention. Good catch. Can you imagine how heavy that cast iron part would be...

I wonder if they (tesla) are coming out with a newer version yet again. Even amazon had them for a while. I see multiple companies overseas showing them on websites. Skeptical myself until something is proven. Now back to your regular programming...ding ding...

Close up of the Maxton.

Costco had the bundle on sale for 300 off. Keep an eye out for the sale. They are hydraulic, 110v. Quickjack has many options available. Some are longer to operate in the standard fwd aft orientation. I have no issues using them sideways and it allowed me to purchase the lower cost 5000tl. I...

Don't hijack the thread please... Perfect example of "Do as I say not as I do" Really? chill out and let it be, and dont ruin the thread please.. Alrighty then... lets get the ball rolling after the buzz kill... Got my Quickjacks up and running. I have the standard length TL5000 and run them...

Found it. Even prime, but double the cost. And only in Km/h not mph (at least here) which makes absolutely no sense in the US. Good for our local northern friends in Canada. Nice find LBM4, let us know when you get the correct one. I'd try it once I can find it in mph...

Cool little display. How about some more info about it please? Tried all kinds of google searches and haven't found anything. And no links or info found in your video... Not really a fan of waiting weeks (or months) for AliExpress, maybe a different vendor? Thanks for the teaser...lol

Also available at the tropical river store. Prime for some. Just another option. Looks to be the same. I have it, definitely stops the excess from my foam cannon. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09XHJBGH7/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Good point!! Even tho we can only see the front side, I would hope the drain does go on both sides of the evaporator, (condensor is at the front of the vehicle unless it has heat pump, I believeit has both). Inject enough cleaner up that drain till it covers the front side then it may cover...

I think it can be both, or more. All due to a bad design. Both my filter and the lower area was dry, even after a Seattle wet winter. But I did have a smell and some fuzzy mildew/mold on my evaporator or on the backside or the evaporator where we can't see. Either way the temp fix is the...

I'm at 37k, had the issue once at 2 yrs and 3 months. I did the cleaning once at that time (slightly different way as noted) and its now 4 months later and still no smell. Just my theory is some mold or mildew or whatever kind of funk gets on the other side of the evaporator where is harder to...

I did it with the seats out. If you move the seats all the way fwd you might be able to get in there. Any kind of foam could work. I cut up a 12x12 piece I got from my local hardware store. Someone may come up with better way, that would be great. I had to retrieve an item that fell in there...

There is a spot where the front and rear sections of carpet meet under the front seats. Anything can fall through and into this worthless void of nothing (or empty channel). You may hear something slide or roll back and forth when turning or cornering hard. Here in a pic of the locations. I had...

Just north in Arlington. Grew up in Marysville. Yes agreed, I did notice the jack pads on the rubber did have more flex. Another reason I installed the wood pieces into mine. Very solid and stable with the jack pads on the wood.

Very good point!! I dont think it needs the Tesla style jack pads as long as you lift it the same locations the jack pads use. Personal preference I guess. Use the rubber pads just like you would any other car. Definitely more than one way to do it as long as its safe. I don't know the...

I did find this picture online. I marked the areas where the front and rear carpets meet right above the channel. Good luck

I do not, sorry. If you unbolt the seat and tip it back you will see the seam in the carpet and the gap/channel right below it. Don't tip the seat to far or you can damage the plug (unless you unplug it of course) that picture it from the front looking back with the seat tipped back.

I saw the magnesium version myself. I had a thunderbird with many magnesium engine parts on it, valve covers, oil pan. Magnesium is still being used in many automotive vehicles...

Hey Soundmixer, do you recall if the update that removed the perfomance software was the same V11 UI update?

Very unfortunate. Sorry man. If your comfortable with doing it, I would open the frunk (the emergency jumper wires) and check the voltage of the 12v battery. Good luck.

"Tesla should have sent a letter to the current owner apologizing for the mistake" Ya right...Tesla apologize....good one. I couldn't agree more, but it still cracked me up. Tesla apologize... No offense, just laughing at the comment.

I haven't seen any aluminum skid plates/aero shiels do this yet... And yes, I feel better that my coolant lines in front of the battery are more protected by aluminum than plastic and fiberboard.

This is when I lucked out at the end of 2019. My Service Adviser found a way to preorder a stealth in November. Jumped on the deal.as fast as I could. $52,990 (+$1500 for 19" wheels I added). A 2020 stealth was delivered 1 month later in December of 2019. I traded in my 2019 mid range. Here is...

My point was just stating what the invoice said, as some people mentioned they had mobile service replace their control arms, obviously without an alignment. And after a discussion with the mechanic that replaced my control arms during a second visit, the fact is my vehicle was never put on the...

Here was my justification. Even aluminum may not of stopped one of these but gives it a better chance. How much is a battery if something goes throught the panel and breaks the coolant line off the battery assembly? It has happened and yes there is a non approved fix but thats a different...

Pieces of wood I cut for lift8ng the tesla. This will also give me more clearance to add the wheels to the quickjacks. The wheels will raise it slightly. And my apologies, I just noticed this was the Y section. I did a search and found the quickjack post and replied. However I do hope the info...

Positive update! I found a video from quickjack about priming the pump. Its also in the manual but the video is better. Never did see or feel air as I followed the procedure but it worked. Blead the jacks again to make sure. Got everything hooked back up and it lifted as it should. Pump sounds...

Is that the Ikon front lip? Thanks.

I agree, I'm going to try to bleed the system again and see if it has more air in it. I think something in the pump is wrong and its sucking air into the system. So many videos I've watched of this system and not one has done this ( that I've found, yet). Worst case costco has a great return...

Well, crap, My quickjack seems to be having issues from day 1. Everything bleed just fine, very easy. They go up evenly and come down nicely even with no weight. Only went to the first lock a few times with no weight. THEN....I went to lift my 4250lb car. Nope, just when one tire starts to lift...

Love them foam cannons!! Makes washing so much easier and a bit of fun!!

The smell could possibly come from the filters, the evaporator or both. Its great they say Antibacterial, but probably wont help and funk that may be in the evaporator. Need the foam for that. Think I'll try them stp filters myself, good find android04 thanks!!

Something to try for the ones having continuous problems. With the way the duct is designed, there is nothing forcing the cleaner foam all the way through the evaporator. Some of the foam wil take the path of least resistance and just go fwd into the duct. I used some temporary pieces of...

I pulled the trigger and finally ordered some. Costco sale. I only need the 5000 and wanted to operate them sideways anyways. Just the way my garage is setup. Max on the 5000 is 60" and outside to outside of my jack pads sideways is 57", just perfect. And the lower 3" height is nice. I can also...

Installed the V1 Maxton side skirts. I like how they added something without being to extreme. I removed the stock rocker covers and through bolted them together with lightweight fasteners. Then did a cosmetic seal around the front, rear and side. They are permanently one piece now. Reinstalled...

I actually like it. Breaks up the white a bit. Most importantly, its what you like and want. Not much wrap to remove if you change your mind later on.

I didn't have the issue until 35k miles. I was on my 2nd set of filters (3rd if you count the originals) then one day...Whoa! Always run in auto with the ac on. And the smell appeared on filters that were only 2 month old non tesla filters, supposedly with the charcoal. Using Tesla...
