Got a call from FedEx today. Rotors and pads to be delivered tomorrow, signature required. Yea!
Any new suggestions for what to tell my mechanic on how to install them? He claims it's not a big deal, but hasn't actually seen a Roadster (or Lotus) from the other end of a socket wrench. We do trust him, however, and I'd rather go with someone I can work with, vs an unknown shop.
I have the links to the YouTube videos and instructions up-thread, and will strongly suggest he watch them before touching the car.
Questions for the group, after re-reading the thread:
1. I understand Tesla won't service the brakes once the upgrade is made, but does that include the 2-year brake fluid flush? My annual service is in a few months; not sure if this the year for it.
2. There was a tip regarding a fix to the rattles that involved the springs somehow. What was that?
3. Brake "goo" - I think the "red kind" was the recommendation, but is there a better description?
4. What have others learned that would be best for us to not have to re-learn the hard way?
Thanks!
Greg
