ADAPTATION. Air compressor for Tesla X og Tesla S facelift 2015-21 models. Part number is 1027911-00-H. Complete with air nipples. But it might be good to have some extras (4mm, 6mm) plus possibly a hose cutter. Teslas original part price for the product is NOK 6,965 incl. VAT.
WARRANTY. There is a 2-year warranty on our compressors if the points below are followed.
- Do not replace only the compressor if you have leaks elsewhere in the system. This causes the compressor to run too much (should not go beyond 30s intervals). You risk the engine running hot, and the rotor or ball bearing breaking after a short time.
- Ensure that you do not have moisture in the valve block. This prevents flow, especially in transitions to freezing temperatures, and gives incorrect start/stop signals to the compressor via the ECU/relay. If you are unsure, change also the valve block.
- Replace the air filter/intake hose to the compressor. A saturated filter can allow moisture to seep directly into the compressor, particularly during winter time. Tesla started using this type of air filter on the production line in 2017, as far as we understand. You can purchase the air filter directly from Tesla (part number 1027931-00-B for Tesla X, 1061821-00-B for Tesla S, price approx. 170).
- Replace the relay when you change the compressor (not necessary if you have eFuse). You can order the relay below. If you don't get up the option, we don't have in stock. The relay must then also be purchased directly from Tesla (part number 1080796-00-A, price approx. NOK 240).
- Finally - when everything is tight and working - you 'refill' the system with nitrogen. This must be done according to the correct procedures (the system should also be 'flushed' to clean out moisture) at a Tesla service center, with toolbox and associated equipment connected. If you do this properly, and follow the points mentioned above, you will avoid problems with moisture in the system for a long time.
For Tesla X, please see this guide for installation. For the S model, Tesla's own service manual is probably the best. If you are unsure where to find the relay or if you have an eFuse, take a look at the last series of pictures under point 7 here.
