Tesla Model S Brake Diagnostics: Metal-to-Metal Grinding & Drive Unit Issues.
***
We diagnose a grinding noise on a customer’s vehicle and discover the rear brakes are metal-to-metal due to a completely missing inner pad, while the outer pad is at minimum spec. We also find that the rear wheels are too wide for the Model S setup, causing rubbing on the fender liner. Additionally, we identify a popped-out sensor on the rear drive unit with coolant intrusion.
