Frequently asked questions​

Get answers to common questions about Tesla battery repair and maintenance.

Are Tesla LDU repairs warranty-backed?

Yes. All Tesla Large Drive Unit (LDU) repairs and rebuilds performed by EV Reviver include flexible parts-and-labor warranty coverage, activated automatically after service completion.

Model S and X use the Large Drive Unit (LDU), which is serviceable and commonly develops bearing wear, coolant seal leaks, and inverter control faults. These units can be diagnosed, rebuilt, and recalibrated to restore smooth power delivery.

 

Model 3 and Y use the Small Drive Unit (SDU) platform, which has different internal architecture and failure patterns. SDU repairs follow a different diagnostic and service process, and in some cases may require full unit replacement depending on the fault.

A humming, whining, or milling noise in Tesla drive units is typically caused by bearing wear or rotor imbalance inside the motor assembly. In Model S and X LDUs, coolant intrusion can accelerate bearing failure. A proper repair involves full LDU teardown, bearing replacement, rotor balancing, and seal correction to prevent recurrence, not just swapping the unit.

Yes. Model S and X LDUs can be rebuilt. EV Reviver performs bearing replacement, seal repair, inverter service, and calibrated reassembly to restore factory performance. This approach is often more cost-efficient than full unit replacement and helps prevent repeat coolant intrusion with the Coolant Delete upgrade.

We can screen LDU issues remotely by reviewing fault codes, inverter alerts, temperature data, torque output readings, and BMS/drive unit communication errors.

 

However, confirming LDU failure requires in-shop testing, since problems like bearing wear, coolant intrusion, stator noise, and rotor imbalance cannot be identified through software alone. These require physical inspection, vibration analysis, coolant contamination checks, and inverter load testing.

Remote diagnostics can point in the right direction, but accurate LDU confirmation must be done in-shop.

Our warranty coverage is offered with a time or mileage limit, whichever comes first. This protects against defects in both parts and labor for the duration of your coverage term. Because every repair and battery, drive unit condition is different, your exact warranty term is presented upfront during your estimate, so you always know what’s included before work begins.

Yes. Unlike factory-style long-term warranties that can be expensive and restrictive, we provide shorter, flexible warranty terms designed to match your repair needs and budget. These options lower upfront cost, still include both parts and labor, and provide practical protection without locking you into unnecessary long-term commitments. You get reliable coverage that makes sense, without overpaying for time you don’t need.
