FWIW: I believe part of the fix has been software.
New iterations accelerate the X much more slowly (AP of course) that original versions and as such torque is diminished.

Isn't this only true if the suspension is in High or Very High?
A new car set to the default Low position should accelerate as expected.

Any idea if the Model S has a permanent fix too?
I had exactly this problem. Eventually they allowed me to leave the car overnight (and outside I think) and then they took the car out in the morning and were able to re-create it. Unfortunately although they replaced the usual parts, eventually the noise came back.I've had one half shaft replaced and that worked. However, before long, it started doing it again. I think it is coming from the other one? IDK. But, the odd thing about it, after the car warms up and has been driven for 30 minutes or so, I can't seem to reproduce it. The problem is the service center is 30 minutes away and while on the way I get a shudder, by the time we get there and try to reproduce it, it has stopped. My guess is this will get worse over time and somewhere shortly before I hit 50k miles, I'm going to try one more time to get it addressed under warranty.
“Noise” I can live with until the fix; my concern is that the noise is symptomatic of a known problem. What happens when something breaks? Does it then effect the motion of the vehicle such that you will be unable to continue your trip? In short, has anyone yet been stranded due to something breaking? Unless I missed it on the past 18 pages, no one has reported a nonfunctional vehicle due to the shudder, or have they?
While I certainly do appreciate that your SC replaced your tires because the foam was separating... the 'shudder' problem we're experiencing has nothing to do with a wheel being off-balance... regardless of cause. I have had many-a-wheel off balance in my many years on the road... this is definitely not that issue.
Also... this is not just 'a noise'... but a shudder (thus, the name of this thread) that is felt throughout the vehicle. It is only during (in my case) semi-hard acceleration, and not at speed.
Just wanted to be clear, in case those reading this thread have not truly experienced the 'shudder'.
If you watch this vid () at 1:42, you will hear (and SEE) what we're dealing with.
shudder we experienced in the X was only above 50 mph without steering wheel shake and would consume the vehicle in a dramatic shuddering sensation
