brake

First of all, apologies as I’m sure this must have been discussed in the UK forum but I couldn’t find anything. I’m shortly going to take delivery of a Model 3 and have been perusing the manual. It’s suggested in the manual that the brake callipers need to be lubricated every year when road...

I saw someone is selling the 2023 calipers/rotors (front/rear) off a model S and wondering if those fit my 2017 model X. Anybody has an idea? Thank you!

New 2 piece rotors and caliper upgrade I finally got a weekend to install these rotors and covers. Had them in the garage all summer. I really love the look of the wheels with the brakes now. I find they complement each other. I think they are some of the best looking caliper covers you can...

Tesla Model 3 Performance OEM Breakpads They were used for less than 1500 miles. Asking $250, Negotiable.

2017 MX @ 2023.7.10 We have two fobs for our MX, and each is connected to a different profile. When I am carrying my fob and approach the car, Easy Entry causes the door to open, set move back, and the display to turn on. If I look at the display, I can see that my profile has been invoked...

Hey everyone, Basically the title is my question. How do I figure out how to time regenerative braking in fast speed scenarios like a highway? I have a good grasp of the regenerative braking/letting go of the accelerator timing at lower speeds i.e 45 MPH areas and streetlight to streetlight...

My 2012 Model S (134k miles) popped up a message telling me that the parking brake had suddenly engaged while I was driving to work, luckily at only 20 mph in the neighborhood. (I did not press/hold the P button.) A few seconds later, as I was still deciding what to do with this information, I...

Selling EVANNEX Model Y brake covers for $40. These should fit any Model Y except the performance model. They are essentially new, and have never been installed. A few of the fake (non-functional) Alan screws have popped off after I manually checked each one, but have been glued back in same as...

Front and Rear Brake Rotors from a Model 3 Performance. Like New, used only for 9k miles. $400 + s/h. Great to upgrade your model 3 brakes to a larger diameter.

Well here goes my first ever post, so go easy on me 😅. I just swapped out the stock P3D pads for the Racing Brake XT910 pads, and I cant believe I didn't do it sooner. Living in Ontario, Canada, one of my worries was how they would perform in the cold weather, but so far there are no downsides...

As far as I know the Model 3 doesn't automatically brake before a (likely) collision while reversing. Is there any reason why this isn't a feature? Will we ever see this on the Model 3?

Pulled from my 2016 Model X at 30,000 miles when purchased CPO to swap to drilled/slotted rotors and ceramic Brembo pads. Original factory rotors and pads for all 4 corners (no parking brake pad), prefer pick up in the Los Angeles/ Orange County area. Will only fit models with separate caliper...

I have an August 2015 build Model S 90D with AP1 and an upgrade to MCU2. I received 2021.40.6 over the air update on Nov 23 2021. I was greeted with the following alerts the next time I entered the vehicle: - Automatic Emergency Braking is Disabled - Power braking assist reduced - Autopilot...

This new scientific article, below, seems like a huge big deal. Basically it sounds as though EVs, including Teslas, may be interacting with Bosch brakes to in essence short circuit (especially when the brake lights error code is triggered) and accelerate due to loss of regen/addition of motor...

My wife and I are big fans of Tesla. We have a model 3 and a Y and both have NoA. I love to use NoA on the highway, but have found this issue to be a safety concern that should be resolved as anytime the car brakes suddenly and unexpectedly it could cause an accident. When driving in the...

Hey everyone, Starting this thread, please leave comments, questions and for fun I've setup a poll. I quickly pulled the trigger on the new Mountain Pass Performance Master Brake Cylinder Brace. Ref: MPP Model 3 Brake Master Cylinder Brace | Mountain Pass Performance When I noticed the...

These three things are true: 1. Whenever the car is put into Park (P), the parking brake is applied. You can call this "automatic parking brake" 2. If you press and hold the right stalk end-button for 3-4 seconds it will apply the parking brake if it is not already applied. If already applied...

Hi, I'm selling my RB 380x32mm BBK, a perfect kit for street and HPDE events. This kit will fit all models of Model 3. The BBK kit I selling comes with RB460 4 piston calipers (two pairs of staggered pistons for even pad wear), new RB 380x32 rotors(I just bedded them last week), brackets for...

Hey all, I've got into a small accident couple months ago and hope we can discuss about this. Dash cam recording goes first: (I only blurred the license plate for privacy concerns. Nothing else edited, for example speed, resolution, color, etc) This rear end accident happened last year, and...

I have the curse of being an enthusiast that can't just leave things alone. Perhaps a few of you out there can relate to this. :) After starting several threads on installations and track performance related FYI, I find myself going back to those threads time and time again when I'm working...

Greetings Teslarati and fans! I know I'm kinda posting a lot lately because I'm doing a lot of research before ordering my Model 3 in February. I've noticed that with EVs in general and namely with regenerative braking, that brake light is constantly going on. Even if the car maintains a...

This noise sounds like a nut that is loose in the door. I doubt there is a nut that is loose in there, but it's just to explain what it sounds like. I hear a "knock" when I accelerate or decelerate. If I accelerate/brake very slowly, the noise doesn't happen. But if I drive normally, at every...

Good evening folks. I know this will sound nuts, but I recently leased a new 2019 Tesla Model 3 long range. The car is amazing. I leased it in central CA where we don't have much weather, and other than a few odd issues that have all be explained and/or resolved, I took it on a road trip to...

So here’s a new one. 2019.36.2.1 AP1 last few days has popped up a message “accelerator pressed, cruise will not brake”, which I’m used to seeing if I actually accelerate on autopilot, but this time I’m not pressing either pedal. The first time it happened, I instinctively pressed the...

What brake pads fit the P3D+, so the Model 3 Performance brake callipers. Sorry if it's been posted before but couldn't find any information on it by using the search function. Thanks, Jip

I noticed that everytime the model 3 goes into sleep, then wakes up. There's a fairly loud clank coming from the car, near the floor (batteries). Wondering if other people experienced the same and whether I should bring it up with the service center? Also, I noticed that sometimes when I apply...

Here is what happened during a autopilot session. I am new to AP and learning how to use it too. At this point in time, I let AP negotiate the situation, but AP did not do to my liking. I Like, if AP applied the brakes more. Not sure if others have seen similar behavior. I was on autopilot on...

Two of the weakest link of P3 are the brakes and suspension. Tesla walked a fine line between performance and comfort, for most of the customers, it might be perfect. However, I like my brake a lot more aggressive and suspension a lot more controlled and tight. When Mountain Pass Performance...

This is a comparison between RB XT910 and RB XT970 as daily driver pad. RB XT910 is part of the Racing Brake BBK upgrade I installed a month ago. You can read about the brake job here. The caliper is a 4-pot just like stock P3 Brembo caliper. Unlike Brembo with a pair of same-sized pistons...

I've had my M3 for 2 months and put over 3000 miles on it, overall very satisfied, however one thing I've always thought was a bit weak are the brakes. When pressing the brake pedal, it doesn't feel like a typical powered ABS I'm used to on ICE vehicles - it feels more like non powered brakes...

Just picked up my Model 3 and have noticed this behavior a few times. Also get a "windshield wiper fluid low" message that eventually goes away as well. Could it be related to the 110 degree + heat?

Anyone get an email regarding this issue? Dear Tesla Owner, My name is xxx, I work with the Mobile Service team at Tesla and we are reaching out to you to schedule the replacement of the industry-wide recall of the Park Brake repair. We want to assure that all customer vehicles provide the...

Over the past week or so I've noticed my Regen is a little stronger than usual. It's been really cold where I live, and after I precondition for 45 minutes or so (with the new battery warming feature) and when I leave, I still have the dotted lines for limited Regen (pic attached) but it seems...

Apologies if this topic has been covered before. I'd like recommendations of local Sydney businesses that offer brake caliper painting services. I'd like to paint my brake calipers red. Is this recommended? Interested in those who have done this and their experiences.

after driving on a gravel / stone road I heard a metallic screeching sound that screeches at low speed and tapes off at high speed. After doing some research it appears I have a rock in my rotor shield scraping off the rotor. I'm 196 miles from a service center. Should I take it to a local...
