Just wondering if anyone has experience of using the tyre inflation kits supplied with many new cars. I have had a few cars myself with these but never had to use one.

Is there the same problem with the car manufacturers stuff?

Used to work in a garage I'm my younger days and I hated the stuff.

When you remove the tyre it was a messy job and the policy of the garage was we don't repair tyres that have have been sealed with it. The wheel needed cleaning and so did the floor and you're overalls....

Lifting the blades off the screen reduces the load on the motor . I would investigate the possibility that the wiper linkage may be partially seized.

Apparently some people owning Teslas for longer than the warranty period or buying them after it ends have found that its VERY difficult (in the extreme) to get them serviced and parts. No media confirmation though, just reports from people in YT, so take it with a decent pinch of salt.

I suspect, if it's true, that the issues come with Tesla not being able to cope with building spare parts for older models no longer in general production because they are trying to ramp up production of their current vehicles and with limited funds - something has to give.
