Apparently, all of the rear bushings on my 2012 S85 are shot. Tesla's estimate is expensive - I give them credit that they labor hours and rates are accurate, but the replacement parts are costly- mainly because like most companies, they want to replace the entire assembly instead at $300 a pop instead of the $3.00 rubber bushing - probably because it's less labor intensive.
For the 4 digit cost of repair, I was wondering if anyone knows of any other options or performance enhancements I can do to get better handling - the thinking is, I want to get something for that kind of money, and not just return it to "normal" as of 2012. I've read lots about adjustable bushings, and new links etc, anyone have experiencing "upgrading" 2012/13 suspension components to the "new" style, and what gain that will have?
