No, in fact I dont even have a Performance model. I have a 2016 90D. Earlier VIN in the 4000s. However, my own research on the subject does show that it wasnt only early VINs. I've heard a number of 2017s already dealing with it. 90 and 100 models seems to be more prevalent and at least half the people I've talked to or heard about were Performance models, making it seem like a less significant factor.
The SC told me that the suspension geometry was designed on the very low setting and that's why the least axle wear occurs when your low. As everyone else, I was advised to keep it low for most driving and especially for launches and hard acceleration. Sounds great save for dem tires.
My 1st issue with the shudder didnt show until after 10K miles, and I'm already heading back tomorrow for another set of axles at 16k miles. I consider myself to be an average driver. I dont race, if I am planning the occasional launch it's from very low, and I'm normally under 325 kw/mi average so I'm clearly not a grand prix driver. I normally drive on standard height and auto lower at 60mph. After the 1st set was changed out, I took special care not to drive as hard and have really babied it for the most part only to have it come back. The rhyme and reason of the frequency which X's experience it continues to perplex me since, like others have said, all Xs are supposed to experience it but yet clearly some dont.
What's even stranger about it would be the point at which it first rears its ugly face to each vehicle. Some are almost off the showroom floor, others are a good 10k to 15k miles in. I dont get it at all. Just a heada up tho...its a gradual initial onset. You'll originally feel like the acceleration is a hair lumpy but nothing will shake or vibrate, then you'll start to notice that it's always between 25 to 40ish MPH only. Then, once it has you attention, (just like a paint chip on your car) it will become more and more obvious every time you drive anywhere. Finally...you get really mad when you realize you've just been christened as the newest member of the (growingly less exclusive) club.
I keep telling me it's just a car and enjoy it for a season. Because really, if you try to look at it any other way, it just makes you more angry.
