ADAPTATION. This air strut fits both left- and right side. Tesla recommends to replace air struts in pairs (passanger and driver side at the samt time). This is also our recommendation. It is of course entirely possible to change only one side. But in some cases you may get problems with uneven height adjustment. The ECU/Software may also respond unclearly to different types of air struts, although this is often resolved by resetting the level sensors.
PART NUMBER. Always check original spare part number or OEM reference before ordering. The Tesla Parts Catalog main number of this item is 1030608, followed by variants of 00C, 01A. It fits dual motor cars (DM, or AWD) produced between 2014 and March 2016 (pre-facelift), air suspension type Standard, Smart and Plus. Regarding the plus variant, some customers have experienced the Vigor® air struts as a little softer. If for that reason you want to go for the originals from Tesla, you must make an assessment of yourself.
WARRANTY. There is a 2-year warranty on Vigor® air struts. But please note that this in principle only applies to installation at workshops authorized by Norwegian Public Road Administration, the NPRA (or similiar in other countries). In practice, however, the guarantee also applies if you install yourself. We assume here that you know what you're doing, and if you're not sure, rather seek out a workshop for assembly. Manufacturing defects give, regardless of what you go for, of course a full guarantee.
NOTE. Valves are critical components on all air struts. We do not recommend buying any type of 'aftermarket' ones, if you are unsure of the quality. Then you quickly have problems with height adjustment, unevenness and the like. Cheap Asian copies also have an ugly tendency to get 'stuck' in a given position. Our valves are German OEM quality. The residual pressure valve is manufactured by AIGO-TEC GmbH, while the air nipple is the original Voss 'quick-to-connect' system 203.
