    Before you do an alignment, put strut tower bushings, In sway bar bushings in that should get rid of your noise

    I had a broken brake caliper spring on that passenger side wheel. I also had went through a couple of sway bar links. I had chased that spring noise for awhile! Tesla took a mini sledge to the wheel and eventually found the spring. $25 later, including labor - it was fixed.

    • @pjczuba

      Hi ! Yes , this could be also possibility ( and quite a bit more costly than tie rod end ) = after all = still entire suspension job will save tons of money , compare to Tesla garage quote .

  • @pjczuba
    @pjczuba Před 6 měsíci +11

    Hi Randy , It might be a bit of rattle , coming from lower ball joint , unless issue with bushing on one of arms . I'm guessing , that lower ball joint is part of a tie rod end on this vehicle !?! It would be the best to replace both sides tie rod ends , that should solve remaining rattle in front . Unless there also might be worn ball joint/bushing on upper arm . If the rattle now is very minimal = You're most likely very close to sorted out and it won't be difficult . Regards ! Ps : I've just spotted on 6:15 min. of video , that there is also lower arm , so it might be bushing on that one as well .

Not to mention I LOVED the idea you had to buy another tesla for parts! I loved it so much i’m going to try my own hand salvaging teslas and their parts myself! Between the batteries and special electrical units that are low in stock from the dealers I think there’s tons of money to be made!

    I have a 2003 Toyota Tacoma that I purchased new and after it has around 120,000 miles or so, a stabilizer bar end link went bad. Once the new one was installed, it still rattled. The alignment shop had to put a little extra torquing in to stop the rattling. You may be experiencing another slight issue or it maybe that it needs to be tightened up a bit more.

      FWIW, the Model S is really easy to work on relative to other cars I've worked on--it is apparent that the engineers actually thought about how to make it simple to fix. Unlike my German cars where the engineers endeavored to make at least one bolt that holds a part on totally inaccessible.

    You should replace all suspension links' rubber bushings from the side that was bad because the one that was bad probably put strain on the good ones and all the good ones probably got play in them hence the light rattle.

    Sway bar bushings? Usually when I'm eliminating a clunking front end, I do those as well. Nothing helps renew a front end like springs and struts, but on a Tesla, that could break the bank I'd imagine. Possibly that's already been done with the miles and all.
