why dont you just sell your car? or ask Tesla to give you a good trade-in deal, so you can get a new Tesla.
If it's pulling to one side under torque, it's likely a loose link on the rear suspension. My wife's car had a loose integral link. I took it to a trusted independent alignment shop and they located the loose bolt. The suspension was re-ligned and loctite applied to all the fasteners. Problem solved.
Nope. I said asking Tesla to give him a special deal (or good trade-in deal) to get back the car. So he WON'T take any financial loss.Wait, what? You want the owner to take a massive financial loss in order to address a defect?
I'm in the same boat. On my third DU and still experiencing problems in spite of several attempts to fix.What I don't understand is how a new revision DU can give me problems like this, but new cars with presumably the same DU are okay.
The only thing I can think of that causes drive units to go bad is something amiss in the car chassis' electrical ground. It's obviously something specific to the car itself because the same cars have repeated drive unit problems while other cars built at the same time have no problems.
Mine is definately mechanical in nature. You can feel it in the seat of your pants when it "clunks" going from acceleration to re-gen and back.
I would not accept that, keep pushing and go higher up if necessary. You paid a lot of money for a premium sedan, more importantly a silent EV. Show them their own website where they clearly advertise it.In Finland they have solved the problem by not switching the DU when there is a buzzing sound. Of course the noise may be louder in your case.
I think you've said it gets better for a while when they do a drive unit change. I'm talking about the root cause that is leading good drive units to go bad. If current is flowing where it isn't supposed to, that can cause erosion of the metal parts which will lead to mechanical problems as those parts wear abnormally.
Well, in my case the clunk-clunk noise was back in a matter of days after the DU replacement, and within probably less than 100 miles. I'm not sure I buy the arcing argument here. They will do something with the wheel hubs, not the DU itself, and the noise does go away, but will return in a matter of days and gradually get worse until I take it back in.
