LOWER FORK STRUT. In many cases, it is perfectly fine to reuse the fork from the old air suspension. These are cast aluminium, and can withstand a bit of the Scandinavian roadclimate wintertime. But you can meet problems when trying to loosen the bolt that attaches the fork to the strut. It can sit hard and has grooves (Torx) that wears too easily. So you should know what you are doing.
ORDER. You can order without charging your account now. Just select payment on delivery when checking out. We encourage all customers to use payment on delivery or bank transfer, as these are a cheap form of settlement that contributes to our low prices. If pick-up youself in Oslo, you can also order and pay in the online store. But arrange a time before you arrive: post@teslasuspension.com / 971 53 805.
ADAPTATION. This air strut fits both left- and right side. Tesla recommends to replace them in pairs (passanger and driver side at the samt time). This is of course not an absolute requirement, and it is possible to change on only one side. But be aware that in a few cases, you may get problems with height adjustment, as the ECU/Software responds unclearly to different types of air struts. Mostly, however, this is resolved with a reset of 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 1027361, followed by variants of 25E, 00G. It fits year models from 2015 to 2019/20, with standard air suspension type (not adaptive or active).
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. We only ship within Norway for the time being.
