Keep us posted!Going to be disappointed if the rattle is still there after I pick the car up. They've had it for 3 weeks.[/QUOTE
yeah same here - easily reproduced at those speeds.I have a Nov 17 Model S (Not D) with air suspension (if it matters), and i am able to consistently reproduce the noise if I drive between 5 and 7 mph. It is very consistent at that speed. Above that speed, it seems to go away. I can hear the noise, as well as feel a vibration in the steering wheel. Can anyone please test by driving only 5-7 mph and see if it happens? Originally, I noticed the noise while slowing down to a stop, but since then I was able to figure out that it is consistent at that speed. Tesla service has reproduced the issue, and replaced the struts four times and said the problem was resolved, but it is not.
Hi moulari,The Struts appear to be the same part numbers across both cars on both sides. Below is a photo of the label on the strut with what I believe is the part number. I was able to get the photo by setting the suspension on the highest setting and turning the wheel all the way in one direction.
I am not sure the sound on the other tesla is gone - tonight it seemed to be coming back - not 100 percent sure but I think so.
I would interested to know if others with the rattle have the same part number - also I could be wrong but it appears to have the Firestone "F" logo.

Hi moulari,
Have you had a chance to verify if the rattle is back on your MS that was serviced first?? I hope it's fixed.
Sounds like it may be what you have - someone posted a video in this thread or another and it picked up the sound perfectly. I will try to find it.just to make certain that I have the same issue, if you drive at 5-7 mph can you hear the noise from the front end and feel it on the steering wheel? I don't want to waste time taking it in if that is the same issue.
Thanks.

Mine's a P90D AP1 with air, and it does have the rattle. Does the P have different struts? I'm away from the car now, but can check later...I took my car in today to the SC at Oakville, ON for this rattle. They said it is pretty standard on their current cars. While I was a bit disappointed, I figured I might as well wait for the issue to play out and go back once Tesla fixes the part issues.
And then, I got an older AP1 loaner. Damn...this thing did not have any rattle at all. It was a 90D.. air suspension and it was completely silent even on low speeds.
They changed supplier of struts from Continental to Firestone, not sure exactly when, but maybe with the refresh spring 2016.Mine's a P90D AP1 with air, and it does have the rattle. Does the P have different struts? I'm away from the car now, but can check later...
