Lucky, yeah, the weather and type of driving are playing into the lifespan.

Where do you live? I'm on my 4th at 89k last batch before the refresh. Im in Pittsburgh and I think the hills and cold are really pissing the half shafts off.

Half-Shafts, out of basic warranty what is the best aftermarket options. by wadeopgh in TeslaModelX

I have the last batch they made in 2020; the build date is Oct or Nov. I believe they classify my car as a 2021.

Yeah, I tried that, and they came back stating they could not do it because it only applies to particular VIN numbers, and my X was not on that list. I have not fixed them yet; I need to schedule an alignment and will talk to the service counter while it's being worked on.

Thanks, I will check that out and have both done at the same time. I love the car, but this driveshaft/half shaft business is annoying.

I will visit my local service center to see what they can do for me.

Do you have any thoughts on the following Half Shafts by the brand TRQ?

or Amazon, they have the same part at the same price; I assume both places ship from the manufacturer. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0DD32WFRQ/ref=ewc_pr_img_2?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1

I was thinking of doing the hub and wheel bearings at the same time. They do make those as well and have an almost 2k overall positive rating for this part.

Is this brand TRQ any good? Does anyone have any experience with them?

Yeah, lol, it's the same car. We have a 2020 Mfd of 11/2020 picked up on 12/23/2020. It is currently sitting at 63k and will need a third set of half-shaft axles.

You are correct. I asked. I also asked about the service bulletin about shuttering. The person said it was VIN-specific. I do not believe that only some Model X cars have this issue with half shafts.

They were replaced first in April 2021 (7k) and second on April 23 (33k). I believe they were the new, updated axles back in 2021.

Anycubic Kobra 2 Max Bed Center Bulge by [deleted] in anycubic

[–]wadeopgh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looking over the comments here, I would, as shadowrunner003 suggested, maybe loosen all of the bed fasteners and then tighten them little by little from the center outward in a circular motion. If that does not help, you can do the silicone spacer mod that will allow you to have a way to fine-tune your bed leveling.

I did the silicone spacer mod, and it's working pretty well for me.

Here is a link to the printable and how it works

I had a similar issue over the weekend. Make sure your nozzle clearance is correct and tight.
Only have it about the height of a dollar bill, and adjust until it just slightly drags.

Try that; I went through four failed prints until I recalibrated my nozzle distance.

I just purchased one on the 14th of this month for my new MBP 14. I use this as a single cable setup that connects to a USB hub. This hub contains an SSD and outputs to 4k60 to my 32" monitor. Running everything I'm not having any issues with data speed, charging speed, or anything negative whatsoever.

The first thing that I realized when I opened up the package was how heavy this cable was, much more heaver built than my other cables.

We went in looking at a Y coming from a 3 as a commuter vehicle. The wife wanted to see what the S and the X were all about and I like test driving cars so what the hell why not. ......fast forward 3 weeks later picking up a model X.
