    Shocks Struts

    Can I go to any old shocks and struts place to redo/replace the spring set up on my 2016.5 MS? Or is this something that I had to do at a Tesla shop?

    Rust on trunk strut connections

    Just noticed this for the first time, sunlight hit at just the right angle. The strut connections to the car are all rusted, all four of them to varying degrees. Trunk still opens and closes fine. Warranty expires in a month but is this just wear and tear? If I request service I won't know if...

    Automatic Trunk/Frunk

    Has anyone replaced their OEM struts for stronger ones so that the frunk and trunk open automatically once you pop them? I did so with the trunk, but haven’t with the frunk yet. Thinking about it, just seeing if anyone has feedback due to the frunk being thin aluminum. Great having the trunk...

    Rear Liftgate Strut Failure

    So, one of the struts that holds up the manual liftgate on my S failed over the weekend while I was out running errands... judging by the grime around the end of the strut, it looks like a seal failed or something. Thankfully my wife was with me, so we traded off acting as human tailgate props...
