Hope you held til November mate, good test overall, Thankyou !!

I want to say thank you. This helped a lot.

You are a life saver! Thank you so much for this video! I never comment on videos and you made me feel like I had to!

You are the man

Thank you for this. Just saved me an expensive and unnecessary trip to the garage!

Amazing. Thank you

Your shares should be higher today thanks to Elon helping Trump win.

Loved the video. Adding to my case for buying a Tesla 3….

Thank you! I just heard this noise and was worried sick that it was going to cost way too much to fix. After a few tries poking around, a little stone fell out. Problem solved! You’re a hero ❤

Phenomenal job on the video. Fair play.

Incredible lol 😂

Thanks mate. You just saved me $250 it was a stone. Sounded horrible.

I've only just found your review. Excellent real - world review, very helpful. I am thinking of a Tesla - other EVs seem to be more of a faff to charge.

Saved me $200 Tesla wanted to charge and a trip to the service center with this grinding noise!

Absolute legend, I had the same issue and it was resolved after following your instructions (Tesla model 3). Thanks 🙃🇦🇺

Subscribed… im thinking to buy a model 3 standard plus… anyone with this model and experience a long trip?

S.A CAR BAH

-_- 😂

Very well-done video! A great mix of scenery, in-car views and tech info, and stories! Processing was excellent. I only wish I’d seen it closer to when you published it! I bought my August 2021 M3SR+ LFP just a few months after you bought yours, and, three years later I enjoy it as much as you did in this vid. My wife and I, both retired, took a 7,000-mile journey across much of the US (New Hampshire to Utah and back), and loved it! In October, we’ll embark on a more comprehensive trip all the way to Seattle, south to San Francisco, over to Salt Lake City, spend a lot of time in the SouthWest’s amazing national and state parks, then homeward from there: about 10,000 miles. 😄 As a fellow Tesla stockholder, I was saddened to see how high the stock was when you bought in to it-arrgh!😢 Here’s hoping that by mid-2025, it’ll rise once again.

My wife called me this morning about an awful sound coming from her car. I found this video, and tried it when I got to her. A tiny pebble fell out and the problem was solved. Thanks Rick, I _really_ appreciate you making this one!

Thanks very much! Grinding happened on a fairly remote island off coast of British Columbia! Your youtube helped us retrieve a tiny stone and saved us. Thank you so much!

this should be getting more views ... This is the route I took

The share price today is $247.06 about 22% up on the the purchase price. What a difference a month makes! Do some research before you make a decision when to sell your shares.

Hi Rick, just found your page and realised the first video I watched was from 3 years ago. Interesting to see the outcome of the experiment, thanks for sharing and hopefullly TSLA will go up in the future! I had a question on what you thought about the hire purchase option, i run a limited company and profits mean that if I were to buy a EV then that would offset the cost price from my profit/corp tax bill resulting in a saving of 10k tax. Would you recommend this vs the lease or do you still think the lease is the best option? Any thoughts appreciated!

What do you think about Hire purchase vs the lease? Considering you would be able to claim the full cost back in year one from corp tax (25% corp tax payer) so this would reduce my initial corporation tax bill by 10k and then payments can be spread over time?

Thank you!! Saved me a trip to the service center!

Bless you german guy. You saved my biscuits

Thank you i just had the same issue wife was so worried. Do we still need to go back to Tesla to do a proper check ?

My wife felt like her model y was going to rip apart from the loud metal scraping sound! Your fix saved us a trip to the nearest Tesla service center (40 miles away) - thank you!!!

Road trips can be made by any car depending on time budget and ability. But I’ll stick with ice still for my trips onto the continent. I live up in the north lakes i do not need to fuel way past calie apx 900mils we tend to do on some trips well over 1000m to 1500m days but on are casual days translating 900-1000. And for that time is everything and waiting 40-50mins to charge would effect how we holiday and are enjoyment of taking side adventures to un planned destinations, and ice brings freedom of the unexpected. But respect if you enjoy ev’s enjoy it but don’t expect it will work or be suitable to all.

Thnx you helped me alot. One like and one sub

This is awesome, Rick. Thank you so much!

Credit to you for seeing this through. Next time rodders (only fools...).

What about Benefit in Kind?

Tesla is not a family car. If you travel with family, get a Range Rover .

Interesting watching this now. I bought my tesla around the same time. December 21 Model 3 performance with 11700 miles. Tesla offered 26k. Private, maybe 30k max. 36k to pay off loan. So negative unfortunately. Fancied the new updated performance but not paying up to 10k just for the change, not to mention the higher monthly rates with interest rates. Thanks for the update

Thanks. saved me a headache. In my case I had a piece of glass in there.

Going on a long trip with a Tesla means the Holiday start at home and will end at home. Have a nice time.😊

Thanks for the tip that the shield was flexible. I pushed on it, stone fell out, badda bing badda boom done! I was about to jack it up and pull the wheel, but no need. Thanks!!

Thanks for preventing me from have a panic attack lol. Great video

This was an excellent video and you filmed your trip so well but the most impressive thing was you being able to help clean the car out when you got back 😂 I will be buying a used EV in the summer as the prices are so good now but can't decide between a Model 3 long range or the Jaguar I Pace both on a 2020 plate

Brilliant video mate! Very informative.

Really good video, very informative. Could you please tell me if you're bringing you're own charging cables while at Disneyland Paris or if they supplied you with some? Thank you.

Was ready to call a tow truck until I found this super helpful video. Thank you SO much!

Just the noise I have

This video was absolutely perfect. Had this issue, saw a couple talking about suspension and tires and knew that wasn’t it, then came across this. Fixed in minutes. Thank you!

THANK YOU SO MUCH, i was so scared when i got that sound! You are a live saver (or at least a stress reliever :D)

Buy the car for 50k and fix it like this 😂

Thank you so much for this video! Came home last night and was mortified by the sound my car made when I pulled in the driveway. Found your video last night, and this morning I found a tiny rock using this method. Noise is gone and anxiety is relieved!

Hun. Never in my 24 years of driving have I needed to clear debris from the rotor. How paper thin are these Tesla’s from uncle €Lon?
