    This place is dead as a doornail - are we all just waiting for Highland?

Horribly loud on...

    This place is dead as a doornail - are we all just waiting for Highland?

    Not sure. Just had 3 different Teslas (2021 and 2020 Model Y) and a 2022 Model 3. Build quality is still far below established automakers. My Model Ys spent months in service (see other threads), the noise level inside at highway is hazardous levels and the Model 3 is nowhere near as refined as...

    This place is dead as a doornail - are we all just waiting for Highland?

    As with anything Tesla, I would not rush to be first on a new model anything. Tech and drivetrains are great, but production quality lackluster, especially in early series builds.

    This place is dead as a doornail - are we all just waiting for Highland?

    Nothing wrong with that. If low cost and compromised ride, comfort is the trade off, Tesla is not the brand for me. Wish they offered an upgraded Model3 as its the right size car.

    This place is dead as a doornail - are we all just waiting for Highland?

    If only tesla focused the new Model 3 on ride quality (air suspension be dreamy) and interior comfort (e.g. proper sound proofing). Could care less about the incremental tech updates and look at this time as the drivetrain and batteries, range/charge time is already great, and FSD remain a mirage.

    Should I upgrade from 2018 M3 to 2023 M3P now that I can transfer FSD?

    I would not assume that the 2023 is any better quality than the 2018. Our 2022 M3 is crap compared to real manufacturers like Audi, BMW, MB or Volvo. Fair comparisons are Toyota, Nissan, Kia etc. Tesla makes a great battery and drivetrain, body assembly (endless rattles) & ride quality (mainly...

    Vendor Redwood Motorsports Model Y - Ohlins DFV (Performance and Grand Touring Specs) - RE-STOCKED

    The Model Y is truly a horrible handling car in stock format. The Ohlins kit make it livable. Still heavy, too tall and no sound proofing in the car, but at least one gets a solid dampening setup this way.

    Ohlins Coilovers Model Y Grand Touring (Redwood Motorsports)

    Hi, I have decided to part from my Model Y, and is selling a set of Redwood Motorsports Ohlins DVF coilovers. Installed in December 2022 at redwood in San Jose. About 6k miles on the set. Planning to remove the parts in the coming weeks so will be available towards the end of May. This is the...

    Will Tesla offer suspension upgrade ?

    I dont think you will be happy with either. I have had 2 model Ys, and my current 2021 has Ohlins DVF suspension installed, with 19" Quatrac Pro tires. Sure, it does help to smoothen the ride, issue now is the road noice that isn't going away. Have put near 70k miles in the Model Y and its just...

    Adjustable Suspension Options

    Model S, X have air suspension and can alter ride height from inside the car, as does Rivan R1T and R1S. Short of air suspension that is electronically controlled, I dont think you can achieve ride height adjustability on the go. Damper adjustment on the Ohlins is super easy (seconds, no...

    2021 Model Y lots of road noise rumble on stock 19's - any advice for improvement?

    Yes - would love that. Elon can continue his crazy twitter adventure all day long but reality is Tesla cars is a crappy travel experience for longer drives (i have owned 3 different, put significant miles on them in a short time. had a total battery fail at less than 20k miles etc.) and the...

    2023 Model Y Unacceptable Build Quality and Issues

    Poor build quality and unbearable cabin noice issues are well documented at this time. Sad to see Tesla hasn't addressed it. I am over it and moving onto another brand. https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/posts/7560720/

    2021 Model Y lots of road noise rumble on stock 19's - any advice for improvement?

    Starting to feel like its time to give up on the Model Y. Have 56,000 mile on it now and while the drivetrain and charging network is amazing, the experience is horrendous due to above healthy noice levels and crappy handling. On broken tarmac up and down US80 I frequently record over 90dB...

    Retrofit Texas MY parcel sherlf

    Tried to order the parts from a Bay Area SS and they said it wont fit and they cannot perform the work. Same with the door panels. Clearly its doable. Just need find a custom installer and do it outside of tesla i think. Anyone know of a place in Reno or SF Bay area that would install the new...

    Model Y Tire and Wheel Damage

    Have a bent Gemini rim from potholes in NorCal / Nevada winter roads Tesla asking $650 for rim only. Insane. Is this the actual price? If so I am probably going aftermarket.

    Will Tesla offer suspension upgrade ?

    Yeah. Didn’t go lower, perhaps 4-5mm as by the install and settings but need the clearance for my driveway (and frequent snow dumps)

    Will Tesla offer suspension upgrade ?

    Tesla OEM suspension on the MY is really quite horrible. The Ohlins DFV GT make the MY a decent car to drive. Not like my SQ5 or Macan, but definitely livable and handles fine, and with 10x improved comfort.

    Will Tesla offer suspension upgrade ?

    Yes. Ohlins DFV Grand Touring. Makes the MY prior Oct/Nov 2022 an entire new car!

    Installed New MY 2.0 Door Panels w/Trim Inserts

    Thank you for the info. Would seem its a matter of finding the right SA willing to facilitate this. Any chance you can PM me the contact info to the SA in Long Beach. I have not had any luck in Nevada/NorCal so far.
  36. E

    Will Tesla offer suspension upgrade ?

    Not sure, depends on when your MY22 LR was built. After mid October it has a softer suspension. If before that date, hands down yes. And in either case, the Ohlins handles a lot better too (e.g. can feel the exact limit of the tires, on the stock suspension, the car was just bouncing around and...

    Will Tesla offer suspension upgrade ?

    Installed it about 3 weeks ago. Completely transforms the car (still not a Macan, but what it should been all along)

    New "wraparound" dash door panels for the US Model Y's - retrofit to existing cars?

    Frustrating as I still have to find a SA willing to send out a Mobil tech to do the work. Perhaps a good aftermarket shop can do it
  39. E

    Will Tesla offer suspension upgrade ?

    It’s about a day worth of labour for an experienced tech to install, and full realignment needed after. Assume at least $1k in labour if Tesla ever offer this

    New "wraparound" dash door panels for the US Model Y's - retrofit to existing cars?

    Thank you! My second order attempt from a different SA, this time in Reno failed too. Called and explained it won’t fit and will “become problematic” over time as “clips etc. are not made to match your VIN” I’ll still try buy them elsewhere and find an aftermarket installer. Sounds like it’s...

    Ok one more review. Just drove 210 miles from Bay Area up towards Reno on US80. First real test. iIs an entirely new car. With prior supension at highway speeds got unbearable >72-75mph. Was cruising at 80+ and it was calm and composed like never before. The entire experience so much more...

    FWIW, can highly recommend the Redwood Ohlins DFV kit. Expensive but makes the car very likable.

    Vendor Redwood Motorsports Model Y - Ohlins DFV (Performance and Grand Touring Specs) - RE-STOCKED

    With the settings far closer to full soft than full firm (22 clicks front from full firm, 24 clicks rear from full firm), the Redwood Ohlins GT kit puts the car well above the limits of my current Michelin X-Ice winter tires and super easy to feel the tire limits. Never did before as the car was...
