Seat/Floor Vibration at Idle in Tesla Model 3
The driver's seat or floor vibrates noticeably when the vehicle is idling (stationary with the electric motor running). This is often due to a misaligned or unbalanced drivetrain component, worn motor mounts, or an issue with the cooling fan or compressor.
Diagnosis Details
Possible Causes
Worn or loose motor mounts allowing excessive motor movement at idle
Unbalanced or damaged cooling fan or A/C compressor causing vibration transmitted through the chassis
Drivetrain misalignment or worn half-shafts (less common at idle, but possible if mounts are very worn)
