    Gruber Roadster shocks?

    ...my two cents here: The dampers you can purchase from Gruber are the ones that we worked out with Intrax. Pete asked me if he could order those as well (there was nothing behind anybodies back). Those dampers are designed extra for the higher weight of the roadster, as the original Bilstein...

    exactly ! it was a real honour for me, to lead the field - and my Roadster was fully accepted by all classic-car owners/drivers. We allready arranged, that I'm coming to the next event again, then maybe even as regular starter - as long as i come without hard- or softtop ;)

    ok, back home (...I was driver in the team) ;) the Roadster was the same that won the 1st. 24 hours endurance-race (EcoGP) in Oschersleben 2018. It got a new 3.0 battery (latest production) in last year, as the original pack had problems with one sheet and very fast dropping cac (that's why it...

    yes, the codes i knew. i was just stunned that after quite a few years of servicing roadsters only now i came across some base-motors. the (Tesla insider) info i had before was explained, that the base-motors didn‘t pass the european/german EMV (german: elektromagnetische verträglichkeit, means...

    ATTENTION: i have to revoke what i wrote about the engines of the eu roadsters ! while servicing EU # 003 i've noticed, that the motor is marked with a "B" and says on the label: ASSY MOTOR EU-BASE. funny EU # 009 )wich is a 100% twin of 003) has a MOTOR EU-SPORT but it'salso a Signature250...

    well, that you can be sure of… there‘s quite a few strange things during production-line. remember that all 1.5 US Roadsters had the full carbon trunk tray, at some stage they changed it to a flocked GFK tray. at the EU- Roadsters that happened roundabout VIN #110 (this is the last one i...

    Is this totally confirmed? Do all EU 2.x Roadsters have an "S" (not "B") hand written on the side of the motor? Does anyone know which motors were "machine wound" vs "hand wound" ? I assume non-Sport Roadsters don't (normally) come with the "Roadster Sport" PEM badge on the PEM, but you are...

    some of this is redundant to previous answers, but here's what i can say: 1. all EU models have extra side-repeaters in the front mudguards 2. all EU models do have orange reflectors instead of the red marking lights on the wheel-arch (there's a few vehicles with VIN below 110 wich had no...

    done some research: only the very first Smart ev's had the Tesla-pack with the same service disconnect as the Roadster. The actual available Smart ED (451 and following) uses a different pack with completely different disconnect-plug, so if you order one from Smart (or Merc) it'll be different...
