I don't know the exact miles but it's less then 15K. You should check the inside side of the tires and not the area where the rubber touches the ground. You might need to raise it up to the highest and then take a look on the inside side of the tire.Sorry for the terrible quality. Didn't catch where the tire meets the rim. Can get better pictures later. It's only been about 10k, so relatively fresh tires, but doesn't seem bad. Definitely not my area of expertise, so appreciate any enlightenment.
Wow, no kidding. That wear is pretty serious. How many miles?
Looks like it’s an 1100-1500$ repair. If it’s every 30k thats expensive every 60k just the cost of driving an X. He is my hack. Cheap shudder hack (not a fix)Long time lurker, but first post. Quick question. With all the posts talking about the shudder, is it inevitable? I have two legacy model xs (2016) in the family with 40-60k miles each without shudder. Granted, they are not pushed hard (probably half throttle most of the time) and always on low height suspension.
The warranty is expiring in the next ~2 years (bought extended on both), so wanted to get a sense of whether I need to push it in standard height to test it, or would that do more harm than good.
Appreciate the collective wisdom!
A depth gauge tool is a few dollars, and will let you spot the difference even earlier. I can't tell the difference between 8/32 and 7/32 at sight, but the cheap tool can.And it's pretty easy to check the inner tread blocks on these every few thousand miles with your factory-installed mk1 eyeball. No need to ask an expert, though you might get your pants a little dirty
I have the same issue, whatever the level is, its start at 80 mph and above, killlingThis thread is very timely, I just posed a question about something related to this yesterday (though more specifically on the warranty side). My drive shafts have been replaced twice now in the past 10 months or so, and I always have my suspension in low.
Does anyone know what happens in the long run if the shafts are not replaced? Is it wear that causes it? Does the shudder get to the point of happening even when not accelerating?
I have the same issue. Have you resolved it yet? The guy from SC told me the vibration was normal. Can’t be. It wasn’t there when it was brand new.I still have the constant, new vibration especially around 40 mph. I have a 2020 Raven and in the last repair attempt they replaced the front left halfshaft, both front hubs, right rear toe link and right rear integral link. They also replaced 1 front wheel (they said it was taking 80 grams to balance so wanted to replace it), 2 front tires and did an alignment. Unfortunately that made no difference at all. I never had this constant vibration issue until they tried to fix the 'acceleration vibration issue'. The 'acceleration vibration issue' remains fixed but the new constant vibration is very annoying. It sort of feels like a drive shaft vibration on a traditional vehicle or an out of balance tire. But it doesn't seem to change much with speed...it's there going 30 mph and basically the same when going 90 mph.
This is pretty much my experience too, what I wrote in post #842.
I ended up getting new tires, taking it back to Tesla for assessment, taking it back to Discount Tire for rebalancing…. Nothing is really different. The Tesla tech did admit he felt the vibration, but said it wasn’t associated with the half shaft issue. He recommended checking the balance on the tires. I had that redone (although it had only been 150 miles)….. So through old tires, new tires, rebalanced again new tires, I have this new vibration that appeared when they did “the fix.” I have tried to convince myself that it’s not that bad, but some days it bothers me a lot. It now becomes a mind game, as I’m sure I’ve lost true memory of exactly what it was like before. It’s been about 2000 miles since the half-shaft repair was done.
Same experience with my MX 2020 . Sometimes I think I'm imagining the vibrations have you resolved the issue? I love the car. Would do anything to fix it.
Those last six months I’d be treating every stoplight like drag strip Tree in normal height Then I’d go get a lowering kit and rear camber arms.I'm 20k miles post TSB repair and it's gone from glassy smooth to ever so slightly shuddery. I'll be keeping an eye on it since I have two years of the ESP left, and probably try to advocate for a repeat run at a fix right before the service plan is up. This is a silly design fault but it is what it is.
