    This is why every wheel shop will tell you to re-torque your wheels after a couple hundred kilometres. Although it is still rare to happen there are a number of factors that can cause this like bolt stretching, falls torque reading due to friction and the bolt slightly shifting due to vibration and forces.

    • @haiiyouu
      @haiiyouu ปีที่แล้ว +3

      They will tell you that due to legal reasons so you can't be held accountable if someone doesn't tighten the bolts properly. If they are torqued to spec once they are torqued forever.
      The car never had the wheels removed since being bought, this is slack from Tesla.

    I once forgot to tighten the nuts (uh, that sounds wrong) on a wheel after a little repair / part replacement. On the test drive, above about 80 km/h afair I noticed vibrations, and I immediately knew what it was and returned home slowly. I can't imagine it not being clearly noticeable, especially if it's on more than 1 wheel.

Then there are those shops / mechanics who, to combat the issue, use about twice the standard 120 to 130 nm of torque that is recommended for most wheels - better avoid those as well, because that can damage the wheels.

    1:55 Low rolling resistance ≠ low grip, it loosely follows, sure, but you can absolutely make a tire with good grip and low rolling resistance, something you'll find fairly quickly if you compare lots of different tires with each other.
    A brand new tire 30 years ago would have much lower grip compared to its rolling restistance compared to a brand new one today, and the same thing applies if you compare a cheap chinese tire and an expensive premium one. It's much more about how you design the tire.

    For people wondering, this wheel nut stuff is not new and was reported on forums previously, and it's also not a matter of where the car is made. It's probably down to wrong torque specs on the assembly line, which is the same in every Tesla factory as they have the same production line equipment like torque guns in all factories and use the same production specs to standardize production world-wide. Or just poor quality metals used to make the nuts or threaded bolts that leads to too much expansion and loosen them.
