So many rattles one after another - FINALLY all gone

[Yoona]

Toronto Lawrence SC's service is always excellent and above expectation. Unfortunately, the car is not. Even a tiny rattle becomes irritating when all you want is a quiet ride.

Kudos to the guys for finally fixing my endless rattles:

front door right
B pillar right
C pillar right
rear door left

Now the ride is 100% quiet and makes the S truly spectacular.

GOTTA LOVE THE CAR!!!!

So what exactly did they do to fix it? Did they explain?

I had a squeak which driving me nuts but a quick meeting with @mrElbe (at a Gas Station) of all places and I've enjoyed the silence ever since!!!

I'm glad you've got your "serenity now"!!!!

I've had a helluva time with rattles in this car and unfortunately have not been able to get many of them fixed. The Seattle Service Center has definitely been sub-par in this regard.

Maybe they just closed the vent . Mine was rattling just to the right of the centre console screen and would stop when I pushed in below the vent. Then I realized just closing the vent stopped the rattle. I wonder if rattles are so noticeable because the car is so quiet at low speeds?

My car has had a minor rattle in or near the rear left door since delivery. I haven't raised it with Tesla because I figured I'd wait and see if something else popped up, and nothing has.

Did you get it fixed? The speaker grills on my rear doors rattle a bit on rough freeways. I can get the rattles to go away if I push on them.

I've had the opposite experience. I've brought it to Lawrence several times. The rattles eventually return so I've learned to live with it. They also tend to vary based on the temperature outside.

I've had 2 Model Ses and yes, it's frustrating because many of the rattles are hard to reproduce because they vary based on speed, type of road, and temperature. The first two you can attempt to reproduce, but the latter you just need to hope that it's the same temp when you take it into the shop. I have one that seemed to go away during the summer and I'm already cringing realizing it will likely come back once the temps go below 50F again (I always heard it in the morning, but not the afternoon/evening in a Seattle winter.
