Repairs and Replacements

Only use Tesla recommended parts.

Note the following:

• Safety features and corrosion prevention treatments embodied in the vehicle may be impaired if non Tesla recommended parts are installed.
• Torque wrench setting figures given in this Manual must be used.
• Locking devices, where specified, must be fitted. If the efficiency of a locking device is impaired during removal, it must be replaced.
• The terms of the vehicle warranty may be invalidated by the fitting of parts other than Tesla recommended parts.

"Remove and Install” (R&I) is to remove a part, and then reinstall that same part again. Typically this type of procedure is used when a part needs to be removed in order to complete the repair of another component.

“Remove and Replace” (R&R) is to remove a part and replace it with a new one.
