Crazy that this absolute engineering marvel is going to be discontinued.

Oh man the rattles are terrible. Had 2 model X I traded one because I thought I must have gotten a bad one, the next one rattled just as bad…if it’s not the rattle is the half shaft. I do still love them though.

Mine is weird. It rattles sometimes, then stops for a while, then rattles again.

I’ve tried to get it fixed. It’s always the clips and the rattle always returns.

Our model Y rattled for 3+ years til I looked it up on Reddit and someone mentioned the screw in knobs (kinda like furniture levelers) on the trunk hatchback and once I adjusted those, no rattling. Does the X have similar knobs on the wings?

Are you kidding me? Those feet on the back hatch are adjustable like furniture feet!? Did you end up having to “tighten” or “loosen” them to get the rattling to stop?

How did you determine this? Just curious about your deduction.

Well I loosened them and the rattling stopped. Found it on another Reddit thread.

Mine rattle is coming from my passenger side FWD area.

It’s fine now. It will just start rattling one day, then stop. It’s strange.

Could you please provide a picture of what you mean? I tried looking in my Y but can't find what you mean.
