    Recurring Loud Creaking Noise in Front Suspension / Steering Column

    Sounds pretty identical to what my Model X has. Any idea on what the out-of-warranty cost would be? https://drive.google.com/file/d/11cbt-dDo8rsphFx1GP523GoJTi4qnzKz/view?usp=drivesdk https://drive.google.com/file/d/1WrvOvkbRGdcpR4sTuqMk0H-q5MZqZAY5/view?usp=drivesdk

    Dripping/leaking behind rear wheel

    You hit the nail on the head! It did cross my mind due to the look and feel of the liquid, but I couldn’t fathom the idea of something like that being way back there. However, upon further research, you are 100% correct, 6/7 seaters have dual hvac systems and the liquid, which is certainly...

    A/C Effectiveness in 5-seat configuration - Predictions?

    This thread really helped me out. I noticed some dripping from behind my right rear tire on my 2016 MX 90D 7-seater. No color, no smell, and felt like water. Someone on a thread I posted asking about this suggested it was from the second condenser that is in that location. It did cross my mind...

    Dripping/leaking behind rear wheel

    That’s the first thing I tried to remember but I’m almost certain I didn’t go over any water. It’s the first time I notice it because I almost never walk by the passenger side, I just happened to be outside doing some yard work when I noticed it. I had just gotten home about 20-30 minutes...

    Dripping/leaking behind rear wheel

    That’s what I’m thinking but from wayyyy back there? There’s a/c condensation in the front where it usually comes from as well, I’ve just never seen it come from this far back in any vehicle.

    Dripping/leaking behind rear wheel

    I just discovered some dripping/leaking coming from behind the right rear wheel. There’s no color, no smell to it. Feels like water when I touch it and rub it into my hand and dries out, so it seems like condensation but from way back there? Anyone have any idea what it may be?

    Help! What does this mean??? (PIC)

    Correct me if I’m wrong but I think it might depend on just how much juice your dying 12v has left. I jumped mine and disconnected it before I “started” the car and it didn’t die again. Although I was prepared and drove around with my jumper pack in the frunk, I also had no further issues as I...

    So you’re saying that it CAN cause the vehicle to shut down mid-drive? I was under the impression that as long as you can get it on then it would stay on. Such as with an ICE vehicle once you can get a jump, the car should stay on as long as you don’t turn the ignition off or once your...

    Help! What does this mean??? (PIC)

    So I drove the vehicle yesterday (still waiting for mobile to come by and replace 12v tomorrow after initially getting a 4/29 appointment). No issues on my ~40-minute round trip, just the constant message to schedule service to replace battery. This morning I got this message (attached) that I...

    Since Tesla service can't get to me soon enough to get the 12V replaced, I placed my battery jumper in the frunk which also happens to have a tire inflator if needed. Thankfully this happened on my driveway so I didn't get stranded, but at least now I'm prepared if it happens away from home.

    Help! What does this mean??? (PIC)

    I had been meaning to check the date on the battery just to get an idea of when I’d need to replace it, just never got around to it. My M3 lasted 4 years on its original 12V before it needed replacement, but on that one I received a notification before it died, no such luck with the MX...

    Totally understand where you’re coming from. I’m the same way, I don’t like tapping into the 12V either for that reason. In my case, however, I didn’t know it had these, I’ve only owned it about a month so obviously the previous owner had these installed. I’m so thankful this happened on my...

    Yea. Found the app and I also found the actual BT controller under the panels in the frunk. Still can’t control them with either though. I appreciate the info. I never would have known. Jumped it so it’s alive for now. I’ll have the 12V replaced asap. Still trying to find a way to control the...

    You are 100% correct. I found the controller for them under the panels in the front. They are those exact ones.

    Yes it’s new to me, I’ve had it for about a month. As far as I know they were only white. I had never seen them turn another color until this happened. Wouldn’t even know how to change them.
