    RESOLVED Grill aero shutters stuck

    I stand corrected; still noisy. Sigh.

    RESOLVED Grill aero shutters stuck

    Now that consistently cold weather has finally arrived in MN I’ve been curious to see if the shutter problem persists. I’ve listened/checked for it on a few sub-32F days and haven’t heard the stepper motor struggling/popping. None of the OTA updates in the past year have mentioned this (wouldn’t...

    Steering wheel creaking

    I had my wheel replaced twice. The third version still creaked. I applied a bead of superglue in the small seams between the plastic halves of the steering wheel body (four spots a few inches long each). It’s perfectly silent now. If you go this route use a glue with a very narrow applicator tip.

    Steering wheel creaking

    I had my second replacement steering wheel installed today. In addition to it being an updated design (per the technician), the installation also includes strategically placing some fabric/foam tape in spots to eliminate noise. So far it’s dead silent and I’m happy! Wheel #1 just felt poorly...

    Steering wheel creaking

    I’ve taken out the rear headliner trim piece to evaluate this, as mine didn’t fit great. It’s held in place by the plastic “mushroom head” fastening material, not Velcro. When pressed together it is a strong bond. The issue I’ve seen is the mating surfaces of the headliner and roof or C-pillar...

    Display flicker?

    I have the same issue. Bottom part of the screen, no discernible pattern and not sure if it’s related to physical shock (ie bumps in the road). Not reported to service at this point.

    Hello from Minnesota

    Likely a great choice. Nokians are awesome.

    Perhaps a software fix is viable. Code the shutters to simply remain shut at ambient of 32 or less.

    Cool, thanks. Looks like "Front Fascia Assembly Remove and Install" would be the key document to have.

    RESOLVED Grill aero shutters stuck

    Agree completely. Cannot stand the sound of the car fighting with itself. I wonder how this could have been missed during cold climate testing of the development mules, assuming Lucid actually did that! I don't think there's going to be a fix outside of a part redesign, which I doubt would be a...

    Hello from Minnesota

    These are the Michelin X-Ice. I believe the only alternative in this size was the Sottozero 3. First time using this particular tire. I've been happy with them. My current benchmark for winter traction is my RS5 on Yokohama Iceguards (3rd season on that set). Not a totally fair comparison as Nth...

    Thinking of making the plunge--Steering column Creak?

    I’m on my 2nd steering wheel (3600 miles). First wheel didn’t feel entirely “snapped together”, as the front and rear plastic haves could be separated slightly with finger pressure. The replacement wheel feels much “tighter” in that respect, however by pushing/pulling at the 9 and 3 o’clock...

    Noise vibration while charging at EA

    I do have a service appointment next week and have added this issue.

    Noise vibration while charging at EA

    Took a video of how the car now sounds when charging. This level of noise doesn’t last the entire charge cycle. It didn’t sound like this until recently (now 3,500 miles).
