Solving rattles & creaks in a Tesla Model Y (up to 2025)

You scared me now. I was thinking tesla, but now I will take Polestar under consideration as well. Thanks a lot. Merry Christmas.

Really helpful video. Like you, I have bought covers for the floor mounted air vents. However, I have a rattle caused by a single tic tac dropping into the rear air vents between the seats. I have removed the vents to try and find it, but have not found it yet. The search goes on!

Park on a steep hill, drive or put the front wheels on a steep bank and rock the car forward/backwards.

I had the same creaking from the tailgate, tesla told me its dirt under the seals on the edge. I ended up putting fabric tape where the seals touch the bodywork and never had the problem again.

Really. So that would be effectively the same as lubricating the rubber, which I found didn't make any difference. Very interesting.

I know but it worked ,the creaking was really letting down a brilliant car.

I had a rattle with middle rear seat. Solved it by putting duct tape on the bar for the latch. On the boot lid, which way to turn it? Is it counter clockwise to come out? Clockwise to go in and less pressure on the lock latch?

I'm going to do a video on the boot lid bump stops as its opposite to what you'd think. You would have thought that winding them in so the lid is sat harder on the rubber seals would solve it, but its the opposite - it needs to sit harder on the bump stops.
