Tesla SDU - Reliability Issues?
Posted: Thu Jun 30, 2022 9:23 am
Hi All,
So I am in the market for a Tesla Front SDU for my Subaru Legacy EV conversion and my query is thus (after trawling through lots of articles and threads!):
Q: in the early years, say 2012 through 2014 there were a lot of drive unit failures but later on Tesla started making much better units.
Could anyone comment on when (more or less) the better units with far lower failure rates started to be installed in Teslas? I.e. is a 2015 F SDU generally fine or am I better off going with a 2017 F SDU for example?
