Yes, we got a model 3 as well. early VIN, took delivery 12/2017.

My 2017 has one dim signature light. I'm out of warranty. Was going to submit for replacement but wanted to check if there's any improvement/update in the design? Don't want to pay for a replacement that may just recur. Apparently retrofitting new matrix headlights involves non Tesla work.

Recently had Kit 1 installed on a 2019 Raven X. Came with RSX3 links. Set for -4. Question: if I DIY to -5, do I need a new alignment? Thanks.

2019 Raven X. E battery 43k miles. Maybe those in service can comment. @wk057 - have you seen a rash of Raven battery failures?

Our 2019 E battery died in February. Also got refurb E battery. States refurb on the service ticket.

What was the outcome of arbitration? Buy back or new battery? Our 2019 Raven died last week, waiting on HV battery replacement.

Similar experience last week, pretty miserable. 2 adults, 2 kids, X packed full of clothes, food, gear for Mammoth trip. Car was supercharging at Hesperia, went inside to Target, came out to screen of BMS errors. 2019 Raven. about 40k miles. Screen, lights, doors, HVAC worked, car refused to...

Heading to Mammoth and likely have to park outside. Do you recommend parking and setting air suspension to very low to avoid snow packing into wheel wells? But also read air suspension can freeze so I'm afraid I might get stuck in very low setting, not great for getting out. Thanks!

They should not hit if the build quality is "within spec." That said, others have mentioned it in much earlier builds. E.g.: Driver door and falcon door hitting and https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/falcon-door-collided-with-front-door.70802/

Disabled auto present years ago. X was parallel parked on the street during windy day. Auto present opened the door and wind threw it open right onto passing traffic. No collision but came close.

That's great! Looks like improved efficiency over the Ravens.

20 or 22 wheels?

Not sure the specific name but it’s the black plastic piece that covers the manual trunk release. Any place besides the service center? Can’t find any on eBay. Don’t care if it’s aftermarket. 2019 Raven in case they changed the part for refresh. Photo attached.

2019 Raven X Performance 22" 34k 376 Wh/mi lifetime. Does anybody have data for the refresh X's, both LR and Plaid on 22" wheels? Would like to see if there's been further improvements.

Any % data on range loss? Any increase in paint road rash on the door/skirt areas?

Just another data point for a 2019 Raven X. About 23k total miles. Nearly all on 22” wheels. Lifetime average 379 Wh/mi. Took a recent trip to the snow so put on the oem 20”s. Left them on for about a week doing my regular work drive. Average 331 Wh/mi.

Purchased a demo unit last year. Saved $5k. It ran fine at the start, about 8 months later the suspension became very noisy. SC replaced parts under warranty and it's working great. I would do it again.

Got it. The rattle at 10 seconds sounded like the "raven shudder" I had which was fixed by the SC. I don't recognize the rocking chair noise though. Good luck finding it!

I think I hear two noises? One is the interval "creaking" about every 1.5 seconds and the other is a rattle around the 10 second mark.

No idea. I haven't seen part number LHS Mount Assy, Raven (1134682-00-C) referenced before so crossing my fingers. I have read about the D revision for the half shafts but it appears these have failed for some folks so I don't really care if they used the B version.

Just to follow up my post (post #52), I caved and went to the SC. Attached are the repairs, hopefully this helps somebody. No further clicking noise when turning at low speeds. No further "shudder." I'm at 11k miles. Let's see how long it lasts.

7/19 Raven build. Have both the shudder at 30-40 mph as well as what I think is control arm noise, clicking noise at 5 mph. Not sure if I want to go to the SC unless there’s more of a definitive replacement since I see posts of Tesla billing for the second suspension repair.

2019 P-Raven on 22s. E battery (in case this makes a difference). 8k miles. 382 wh/mi. About 60/40 highway/street.

I’ve got a P-Raven E battery and the update notes mentioned adjusted Regen. Not sure this is the same message others have seen, pic included. I don’t notice any significant regen changes during city driving. Range remains the same.

I tried to read up on this before. Pretty sure they are not using dual PMSR motors due to the inability to "turn off" one of the PMSR motors so you're creating drag. Anybody with more insight clarify this? Maybe a new rear induction motor? There was a reddit thread about this: Will Tesla...

Long shot but my front dash cam died. Disappointed with Blackvue but don't want to rewire. Looking for a 2 channel 650, 750, 900 front cam. Thanks.

Congrats on the X. If it's any reassurance, we have the same model on 22s. This is my rated range on the app at 7k miles.

Seems strange that the new battery would be the only cause of the increased range. Wouldn't Performance versions also get a small bump as a result?

Isn’t it possible to toggle between trim levels on the MCU with the old Easter egg (display purposes only) https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.teslarati.com/tesla-performance-mode-easter-egg-toggle-versions/amp/

+1 Same issues. Sometimes the button doesn’t work at all. Sometimes I hear the lock release, the seat back beds forward but the seat bottom remains locked.

Faced the same dilemma for our old X. Went ahead and sold the X and upgraded to a Raven X for similar reasons: 1. Did not want to wait a year and see further depreciation on the old X. 2. No backup car to drive even if I sold the X and waited. 3. Raven range seems "good enough" now for most...

I was reading this thread because we have a Mammoth snowboarding trip coming up. But questions to those who know better: 1. Is there a "better" setup when you compare the PMSR motor upfront versus the back? I.e. Raven X/S (pmsr in front) versus awd model 3 (pmsr in back). Better could be...

Raven drivetrain is in both new LR and P vehicles. Improved efficiency was enough for us to upgrade our X. I don’t think the 200kW vs 250kW is a big difference given charge throttling as the battery fills. The battery cooling in the 3 seems so much better. When I supercharge the 3, I don’t...

Probably won't get the truck but excited by the battery tech that will trickle down. MotorTrends article said the dual motor gets the double stacked battery: Tesla Cybertruck is HERE! Photos, Info on the Wildest Pickup Ever Revealed Tonight - Motor Trend Current Raven X range is probably all we...

Not in the market for a truck but I feel the upside is this should lower all the other models' prices. Current barebones model X: 84,990. 5 seater. 328 range. Top trim tri motor truck: 69,900 6 seater 500+ range.

Impressed by the Raven #'s so far. Did 100 mile roundtrip mostly highway, 22" wheels. 344 wh/mi. There was some bad freeway traffic in spots so that helped. Previous non Raven on 22's always hovered 450+. Going to throw our spare set of 20's on for a 700 mile roundtrip in a few weeks. Hoping...

Any resolution to this? I wonder if you're affected by the same issue in this thread: Used Model X ludicrousness

Have to ask the obvious: did you launch it from launch mode? I.e held the ludicrous plus button until you got the warp speed a picture etc?

Seen the threads about FWD and hatch seal issues but this is new to me. Left driver door seal is dangling off. Passenger bottom 1/3 is doing its best to catch up. Build date July ‘19. Already have an SC visit this Tuesday for other stuff. Don’t they have better glue nowadays?

I've had this happen several times in our previous X. We sold that one, purchased a 2019 model and it happened again. :(.

Just read this article: Motor technology from Model 3 helps Tesla boost Model S range 10% "The dual-motor versions of the Model 3 have an induction motor in the front and a permanent magnet synchronous reluctance motor in the back. The Model S and Model X switch this around, putting an...

I originally asked for our model 3 a year and a half ago but they refused. I guess they changed their minds. Other people have mentioned it recently.

We sold our 90D to upgrade for all the reasons listed above. Got a showroom raven model for $5k off. End of quarter free paint and wheels plus $5500 off for our powerwall award made the decision easier. Was thinking of waiting a year for the plaid update but realized there’s a chance: 1...

I would take it in. Is that a frayed wire in your second picture? Kind of blurry.

Slightly off topic but for our Model 3 I see the option for "Roadside Assistance" but not for our Model X. Anybody else?

I think you need to drive at 65mph to get the rated miles. I’ve always seen similar results to your 150 on our previous 90d on 22 wheels.

There are usually some end of quarter incentives. Typically the FUSC hype (which comes back anyways). Q3 incentives were free paint/22" wheels on top of the FUSC. Prepare for crazy Tesla logistics because if the incentives are good, they're slammed at the delivery center. We put down a deposit...

Maybe Tesla changed the software to require the extra low suspension to avoid wear/tear on the half/shafts i.e. the shudder complaints?

Anybody feel applying some form of protectant would delay this process? Silicon? 303 products? Or the krytox mentioned above?

About 2 days. Was pleasantly quick.
