I just purchased a used 2015 85D and after driving with the heat on, found a small puddle of coolant under the front of the car on the passenger side. It only appears when I run the heater (which is why I suspect the previous owner never noticed it as he was in a warmer part of the country). After pulling the frunk, it was obvious which part was leaking based on the puddle of coolant underneath it. Coolant level was just barely below the normal line, so it clearly has not been leaking a lot or for long. When I drive around without using the heat there's never any coolant on the ground.
I've looked all over and found only a few references to the 3-way valve in forums (pn 6007384-00-*), although lots of references to the 4-way valve which is on the other side of the "engine" bay.
My question is has anyone done this replacement themselves and have wisdom to share? It looks pretty straight forward to remove/replace but you never know. I have a set of hose clamps already to prevent too much from leaking out, other than that any special procedures? I've done just about everything on my previous ICE cars, but never worked on a Tesla before.
