    I'm starting to wonder if any Cheap Used Tesla is a good deal... But I can always count on a Great Deal at Priority Tire with 5% off any tires and accessories by using the code 'PTSAMCRAC624' until July 15th at: bit.ly/Samcrac_PriorityTire.

      Door trim clips should be replaced every time you remove the panel per Tesla. Also, note the SRS pressure sensor in the middle of the door. In order for it to work properly in an impact, all of the open holes need the round stickers replaced every time you remove them.

    You had mentioned in the last video, they slim jammed into the car at the auction house, they probably broke that regulator at the auction house by pushing down on the window assembly to reach in with a pocky stick to open the door,
    If putting a doorman window regulator is your biggest problem on a Tesla, that’s a deal.

  • @joeydryer1260
    @joeydryer1260 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    You are going to get used to taking those inner door panels off, when you are fixing door handles. My advise, keep an extra wiring set (flat type) as well as a couple of spare gears with you (along with the proper wrenches to fix it) in the car at all times. I have the exact same model (I recognized the Tampa SC) and had the two front doors fail on the SAME DAY! It will happen. The rear doors are harder, but there are a few tricks to make it easier (like fooling the door to keep the window higher (when the door closes), so you can access the bolt). May also want to keep an extra air suspension shock on hand too.

      A simple blown fuse and a window regulator failure on a 10+ year old, 100,000+ mile car sounds good to me. You say it as if it’s a massive problem.
      Truth be told, my ICE cars never had a problem… except for when it spontaneously caught on fire that one time. Wait…

      @@blewis42002 I can understand if you have no design or mechanical engineering experience that it must be difficult for you to recognise poor design decisions and poor build quality. It's ok. Strange, none of my cars have ever spontaneously caught fire. Please don't reply, its not going to be worth my time to read whatever you type.

Have done a cat back exhaust headers are next with 200 cell cats. Front Bilsteins were done I am doing the rears next, After this it will be well sorted

    Shouldn't you disconnect the 12v battery any time you remove a door panel? I lost tons of functionality to replacing the driver's door regulator in my 7 series. I don't know what disconnecting does to the radio theft prevention system, but that seems like a good trade.

    I’ve always hated the over engineering of electronics on cars. Tesla isn’t he only one to do this, many manufacturers have some kinda computer or module to control the windows and never seen a reason for this. Window regulators are just two wires that reverse polarity depending on going up or down. Why you need a computer involved is just pointless, glad it was just a fuse in your case
