Yes new design all metal vs old black is half plastic.Is the new one the one to the left in the picture?
Mine is 2018, I believe even 2023/22 have old style FUCA.Which years?
But for $1600 not sure if it’s worth it, unless you need camber adjustment. It’s almost like 10x more.Meanwhile the Meyle arm has some nice features (larger ball head, non-Torx bolt) that, while not being worth twice as much, are certainly pleasant.
My next FUCAs will be MPP, though. Sealed bearings >> bushings
Unless they crop up used for $500But for $1600 not sure if it’s worth it, unless you need camber adjustment. It’s almost like 10x more.
How is nvh level with those?I fitted the aluminium Powerflex ones when mine started creaking as the new Tesla ones weren't out here then. The poly bushes they use are a useful upgrade and we do have a rule in UK motorsport for EV production cars which bans metal spherical joints, so it keeps me legal
Wait what does this accomplish…?we do have a rule in UK motorsport for EV production cars which bans metal spherical joints, so it keeps me legal
I guess they could go back in time and engineer a worse product?MPP should find a cheaper way to make FUCA.
No different to stock from my experience.How is nvh level with those?
The ban on sphericals? Originally it was probably intended to keep costs down for competitors, but most agree it's pointless when it comes to the classes we are allowed to run in.Wait what does this accomplish…?
The best part car is noise free. The car feels little more nimble, old my FUCA had 84k mi on them. I have 2018 model 3 DM+ with performance suspension from 2021 m3p. I like model 3s handling, wouldn’t change anything except for sway bars.OP - how do you like them?
These newest OEM FUCAs have been around since August 2022, and yes most 2023 production year 3/Ys do not come with them, instead still use the old black OEM FUCAs... we found part numbers sometime in September of last year.
Time to replace upper-control arm ball joints
The pic is deceiving. I think it looks like alot cause its just spread all over. If it was enough nobody would be having noise issues, aside from the possible water intrusion causing problems. I bought 2 arms used with less than 5k miles and bought another new set from Tesla parts at the SC...teslamotorsclub.com
Time to replace upper-control arm ball joints (ignore the old Meyle video, see pics of OEM FUCAs).
No, just continuous cost down. Lower cost doesnt mean its worse product.I guess they could go back in time and engineer a worse product?
