I'd also love to hear if someone has put 18" wheels on a Model S, since I'm interested in getting winter tires. Reddit discussion seems to say it's not going to work without custom wheels - the issue is whether it can clear the big brake calipers:

What is the active aero error? I have several of these and see that my left front Louver is broken - looks like somebody put the fascia back on the car with the louver open, jamming the bottom one open, and the motor broke the mechanism.

Shauna, which one did you go with? I'm trying to find out whether universal racks will fit on the fixed mount points.

What ball mount drop / rise are people typically using?

My 2013 P85+ Drive unit was replaced Feb 2019 with a revision P before I bought the car. Anyone know if the P revision has the new bearings?

I'm new to Openpilot, and it's practically plug and play. Now I want people to be driving the car even more -- makes things so much safer.

I installed Openpilot in my car -- it is basically plug, stick the unit on your windshield, and drive -- and I'm interested in a how-to for adding radar and pedal.

Can folks spell out what features the newer years add, compared with the 2018 model 3? These are the ones I see: later years got a heat pump, later years lost radar. Fit and finish probably got better in later years

I have 19" turbines and would love there to be done aftermarket aero covers!

I'd be really interested to hear what you installed and how you installed them. It would be nice to add blind spot monitoring.

Is this still available? Does it fit the 2013 MS?

Is the milling sound like this? 2013 P85+ - original Drive Unit The online service rep immediately ordered a replacement DU. When I got to the Service Center, though, the Service Rep told me the guy who took it for a drive didn't think it wasn't loud enough, and that some milling sound is...

And @aerodyne Mine is a new-to-me 2013 P85+, 8 year warranty good until December 2021. So I'm motivated to make sure it's replaced before the warranty is up. I recorded it and the online support immediately ordered a replacement DU. When I took it to the Service Center, though, I was told the...

Is there any way to find out what drive unit revision is currently in the car? I asked the Service Center to check, or at least to let me know if it had been replaced (I'm pretty sure the previous owner said it has not), but I'm not super confident they will tell me. Is there some app that...

Can you share your audio file? I want to find out if the one I'm hearing is something to be worried about. Also @Joelgjr - is this a normal sound or not? Here's what mine sounds like:

Mine has a whine too - do you have a recording I could listen to, to see if it's something I should worry about?

I know it's been a while, but do you have a recording of the sound it made? I sent in recordings, but the in-person engineer said it wasn't loud enough. I wonder if I can ask them to send it to higher-up engineers.

Does anyone know how to find out what drive unit part number I have in my car? Is there software somewhere, or do I need to open things up to check?

Do you mean they have identified likely vehicles for DU replacement? Because on the forums the problem seems to be endemic 2013 P85s (which I just got), so I'd like to know how to get my Service Center to check to make absolutely sure. That or learn the part numbers and check on the forum to...

I did exactly the same thing, but they said it wasn't loud enough while they were sitting in the driver's seat. Could you share the audio so I can see if I need to be worried / go to a different Service Center?

Do folks who have had theirs replaced have some audio recordings of the sound it made? I just got a 2013 P85+ and would like to check if the sounds I'm hearing are normal or not. The Service Center said they won't replace them, saying the sounds are not loud enough. I want to know because...

I'm curious what the sound was, since we have a 2013 P85+ - but it's not available on the link -- could you post it on youtube or something?

I found these threads helpful: https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/drive-unit-replacement.98079/page-3 https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/2014-s85-getting-new-drive-unit.105841/ https://forums.tesla.com/discussion/76728/high-pitch-whine-noise

How can you find out what the old unit part number is? My DU is making sounds that I worry spell trouble, but the Tesla service people said they aren't loud enough. My warranty runs out at the end of the year, so I want to know whether the DU has already been replaced / is in the clear.
