I got my rear shocks replaced last winter after one of the rear shocks snapped of somehow. After ordering a new replacement demper for the rear planning to get them both reworked to get them to match it turned out to be difficult. Bilstein SC needed special tooling for the rear shocks to recharge them they did not want to invest in and parts they told me were not available anymore so sort of dead end. Tesla had also issues location a demper and in the end I got a completed set off 4 sent with €1,076.03 for the rears and €1,362.81 for the fronts each price tag sent before tax. Learning this would be a problem again later in the cars life looked for better options. For the rears I got a new set of adjustable ones build by intrax ( €1420.- for the set). Contrary the rear Bilstein front overhaul turned to be quite easy to get done in the end by them as well with standard parts. These high end shocks are made to be serviced on a regular basis and not to tossed out after so many years tesla expects you to do. Feels almost they tell you when your tires are worn you have to replace them with the expensive rims as well when you bring the car in for service.
Weeks before this all happend I got advised by the people at the tesla SC, after the had problems to get the car driving straight, to replace the rear upper wishbone due to worn out bushings. Getting work on the car done now good moment to get all of them replaced with a new set of powerflex bushings.( PF34-201 and PF34-202)
I can really recommend the intrax option for Europe for sure: Intrax Racing
Really liked the care and service of speed-equipment.eu for doing the work on the car in there shop.
Im a happy camper again with the updates.
