my best guess is that one of these clips isn't doing its job

Anyone else have a rattle in their dash pad on the right side MCU? I've had it in twice but it's intermittent so they haven't been able to replicate. Then I'll be out on a road-trip and it decides to sing me the song of its people for 45 minutes (sort of a resonance over rough pavement) It...

So update for anyone interested in this thread. Called Executive Motorworks and they can do the door handle rebuild. Labor about $300 (Kit is $170) Probably better than getting a new handle from Tesla that will fail eventually Estimator at Diamond said this was something I'd need to go to...

Thanks. Contacted them to see what the options are Thanks to COVID Manhattan Beach is a lot shorter drive than it usually is.

Well the day finally arrived (1k miles after the warranty expired), my passenger door handle is presenting but not opening. I ordered the part and am planning on doing the fix myself since i've taken doors on my other cars apart before and the Electrified Garage's guide doesn't look too bad...

yeah this sounds more like metal on metal in the latch. I told them not to do it and i'll just pop the trim and see what's going on in there.

No this was an hour of labor quoted to insulate the trunk. They explicitly said it wouldn't be covered. I'm just curious if the 1 year NVH limitation was always a thing or if it was implemented later.

Yeah but they can't retroactively change the warranty from when i bought the car. I had an issue this spring where they tried to claim my Mobile connector was out of warranty even though it was still under the cars warranty so now i'm always a bit suspicious

Did i just space out on this? I bought my car in August 2016 and I don't remember that being a thing but today at the service center they said they didn't want to take another shot at the rattle in my tailgate unless I supplied $195. I'd heard of it as a new thing but I don't remember it...

I just look for someone sleeping in their car and use the frunk

Am I hallucinating or did this location use to have 24 hour restrooms

I wasn't sure since I had a loaner 75D a few months ago that had much clearer yellowing. It was more saturated and in a narrower band.

I’m not sure if this is yellowing or something else. Anyone know?

Calculating drag, or doing small scale wind tunnel testing isn't new. X is only about ~15% less efficient than the S. This would put a Y at about 210 miles with similar trade offs. Also, looking at the Kona, I'm not sure what Hyundai knows that Tesla wouldn't have back then.

really if you don't do long trips and don't care that much about sub 4 second 0-60 an eTron would satisfy the OPs wishes for model S money.
