    They moved the construction site to the other side. I wonder if they are splitting the stalls into two areas.

    Just test drove a highland in Los Angeles

    For anyone interested. And I think everyone ought to be interested. I was messing with my adjustable tein shocks and I tried 15/16 soft in the front and 12 slightly stiffer in the rear and my old 2018 feels similar to the highland in terms of damping. Noise insulation is still lacking but I...

    Tein EnduraPro Plus - Review

    I just went ahead and tried setting my fronts to 15/16 soft and the rears are 12. It eats up bumps for breakfast. So much better than stock. I just drove a Highland 3 and it's getting within a stone's throw of it dampening-wise. I normally drive over this cobblestone brick driveway and with...

    Tein EnduraPro Plus - Review

    Has anyone tried to set it to 14 or 16 max soft? I'm at 12 and feel like it could go softer and still not be boaty. Or can you do fronts softer than rear like 14/12? Would that work?

    Good question. I was too preoccupied checking out the quiet that I forgot to listen to the stereo.

    He might mean the horn button. Who are these "geniuses" sitting around thinking of how to mess stuff up

    Just test drove a highland in Los Angeles

    I've driven both. Like Maki said they are comparable. Highland is quiet with the best of them like maybe even etron level.

    Just test drove a highland in Los Angeles

    I understand your feelings. But that's the nature of car suspension. Trade offs. The car is now brilliant at absorbing bad roads but it has lost some responsiveness. Depending on how you're feeling at the time it can be a good or bad thing. I think most consumers would want the refined ride over...

    Just test drove a highland in Los Angeles

    Sorry. Older people call Jordan and Chapelle goats so I thought it was common language. The current performance is the best car I've ever owned. It's hard to imagine it being better but it will be.

    Just test drove a highland in Los Angeles

    Yes it was in the tighter setting. I've been driving my 3 for almost 6 years so i know my way around most of the settings. I keep marveling in my mind how did make the ride so absorbing. It was like you had a mattress between you and the road. The new performance is going to be a goat.

    Just test drove a highland in Los Angeles

    Has anyone talked about if the highland suspension could be retrofitted to the old cars or did they redesign the structure? I.keep.thinking about it. Reminded me of my friends Camry in high school with 65 series sidewalls. Eats up the bumps like fat Albert. Of course I'm comparing it to my...

    Just test drove a highland in Los Angeles

    The leverage your thumb has to push the button on the wheel isn't nearly as good as your pinkie finger pulling down the stalk. Sounds silly but doing that millions or more times over the life of the car sucks. I think all highland owners should get sexy buttons placed behind the wheels for...

    Just test drove a highland in Los Angeles

    Lots of thoughts. The door thunk, sound insulation and softer ride quality are amazing improvements. I was mentally expecting good improvements but was still impressed. It's like a civic to a Toyota Avalon. Almost felt like magic. BUT there is a considerable loss of steering feel and response...

    Should I keep or trade in my 2018 Tesla P3D for either a Model S (or when available a Highland Model 3)?

    Coincidentally relevant to this thread I just drove a highland 3! My SC just got one and finished taking off the plastic. I got the first test drive.

    Should I keep or trade in my 2018 Tesla P3D for either a Model S (or when available a Highland Model 3)?

    Joe in case you’re still reading this thread. I have a 2018 3P with 181,000 miles. Very little maintenance besides tires. Battery still working with 10% degradation. I too felt like the ride was rough. The problem was cheaply solved by installing tein endura pro adjustable shocks. The car feels...

    Yes you're totally right. They faked me out with previous construction that led to nothing. Here are current pics. This site is going to be easier to get to than the older hotel one nearby.

    Sorry I didn't check the thread. I changed to 12/12 and really like it. I can see some people say it's floaty but with socal roads I'm even thinking of going softer. The car still handles really well. I have no complaints about that. I'm sure the car would put in a faster autox time if I went...

    The installer said tein tells them to install the boot but it just falls off anyways and squeaks. So they said it's totally fine too remove the boot. It solved my problem completely. No other issues yet.

    Tein EnduraPro settings suggestion?

    Parts3xpress in Rosemead Now I’m really curious how my suspension now will compare to the new highland. It’s hard to believe I’m rolling on 20s with silly 35 sidewalls.

    model 3 performance. I was on 10/10 but tried 12/12 today and love it. Ride is so smooth. I tried to sense if I lost handling but I don’t feel like it. I’m sure if I did a timed autox there would be a difference but in real world driving it feels good. I drove around Los Angeles today and 90-95%...

    Tein EnduraPro Issue - Squeaking Noise

    I had some squeaking from my rears and the installer removed the dust boot which solved the problem.

    I had some squeaking from my rears and the installer removed the dust boot which solved the problem. I also changed the settings from 10/10 to 12/12. So far the ride feels really good and soft while handling is good. I’m gonna try more hard curves to feel it out more.
