Model S 2015 85D with 103K kms
I have found the source of the clunking sound during low speed maneuver over uneven road surfaces. This seems to be the common issue for aging Model S/X car owners, similar spot to where the early model 3 suffers the squeaking.
Everything else seems intact with no excessive play evident. My front passenger side is the source, but I fear the driver's side is not too far behind. I am curious if this replacement is best done on both sides, preventing repeating the procedure months down the road?
This seems like an easy procedure on older cars.
Curious if there are 3rd party parts (non-performance versions), I would assume Tesla OEM parts are likely the cheapest. Hopefully there has been enough revisions that the part will last more than 100K kms. Also, anyone had luck ordering these through Tesla and actually finding them in stock?
Funny how we used to worry about how long the battery would last, only to find the suspension is a real Achilles tendon.
I can post a conking video if you so desire.
