Product Details
The Unplugged Performance Plug-n-Play High-Performance Shocks For Air Suspension has been developed as a racetrack-derived, street-compliant suspension upgrade for all Tesla Model S variants with Air Suspension. The higher-spec Tesla Model S variants (P85D, P90D, P100D, etc. PRIOR TO RAVEN 2019.5) come equipped standard with Tesla’s advanced air suspension. While the factory suspension has many great features such as height adjustment and GPS memory, it has limitations for handling that are typical of factory-equipped air suspension systems. Although comfortable on the street, the factory suspension does not provide the handling, grip, and stability preferred by driving enthusiasts for spirited driving due to the inherently soft factory settings designed to please the average Tesla owner. This limitation prevents the Model S from reaching its full potential as an ultra-high-performance sports sedan. Engineered for driving enthusiasts, this performance upgrade overcomes the natural propensity of air suspension vehicles for slop and roll during spirited driving and reduces crash over bumps, without compromising daily drivability. Once installed, the upgrade works in harmony with the standard air suspension controls without error or change of all standard functionality.
Notes on lowered cars: Many Model S owners have utilized Unplugged Performance lowering brackets to reduce ride height, improve aerodynamic efficiency, and reduce body roll. When the Model S is lowered, the factory suspension remains unchanged, equally soft as standard, however typically lowered car owners will want a slightly more sporty setting to maximize performance. As a result, when paired with a lowered car this system will maximize handling performance.
INTEGRATION
The system has been developed over the course of 18 months to plug-n-play on all variants of Model S air suspension. After installation the car simply works as normal, requiring no additional calibration and introducing no vehicle errors. All of the factory air suspension functionality (height adjustment, GPS memory) remains unaffected.
CUSTOMIZATION
The front and the rear units all employ user-adjustable valving which may be tuned to each owner’s specific driving preference. All sets arrive pre-adjusted to Unplugged Performance’s recommended setting (high-performance street spec), however, they may be adjusted more firm for pure racing or softer for comfort comparable to the factory units they replace. As a result of the specific valving and adjustability, these high-performance shocks are equally suited for daily driving as they are for motorsports use.
COMPATIBILITY
This product is compatible with every version of the Model S factory air suspension. It may be used on factory height cars or on cars that have been lowered. For maximum performance, we suggest pairing with Unplugged Performance lowering brackets. We also suggest considering our ultra-light wheel packages and our specials on Michelin Pilot Sport 4S and Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires.
*This product is compatible with Dual Motors Cars. For use with Rear Motor cars the following Tesla product will need to be purchased for installation. 2 of these air spring assemblies will need to be purchased. PN: 1030608-00-C*

Will upgrading my brakes void the Tesla warranty?
Tesla’s warranty covers factory-installed parts, but it does not automatically void your warranty if you install aftermarket components like Unplugged Performance brake kits. Under U.S. law (Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act), Tesla must prove that an aftermarket part caused a failure in order to deny warranty coverage. Our parts are engineered to work harmoniously with Tesla OEM Brake systems and can be professionally installed by Unplugged Performance in Hawthorne, CA or by an authorized installer to minimize risk. That said, any damage directly caused by misuse or improper installation may not be covered. We recommend retaining all factory parts so you can revert to stock if needed. Many Tesla owners enjoy peace of mind by using Unplugged Performance products, which are extensively tested and installed by certified professionals. If warranty concerns are top-of-mind, our team can help clarify compatibility and installation best practices to ensure a worry-free experience.
What does the Unplugged Performance product warranty cover?
Unplugged Performance offers a comprehensive warranty on all parts and installations performed by our certified technicians. Warranty coverage applies to defects in materials and workmanship on items including lowering springs, coilovers, big brake kits, brake pads, stainless steel brake lines, shocks, and more. Should any covered part fail under normal use or display premature wear, we will repair or replace it at no additional cost—assuming the component was installed by us or at one of our authorized partners.
This warranty is valid for 2 years or 24,000 miles, whichever comes first, excluding consumable products like brake pads, rotors, and tires, starting from the installation date. Coverage extends to labor for warranty repairs when performed by Unplugged Performance or an authorized installer. It does not cover damage resulting from misuse, accidents, off‑road use, improper installation not done by us, or modifications that aren’t factory-approved.
To file a warranty claim, simply contact our service team. We’ll guide you through inspection, shipping (if needed), and repair or replacement logistics. transparencia and top-tier support are what you can expect from Unplugged.
Will Tesla void my warranty if I install aftermarket parts?
A vehicle’s comprehensive warranty as a whole may not be voided due to use of aftermarket parts per the Magnusson-Moss Warranty Act (www.sema.org/sema-enews/2011/01/ftc-validates-right-to-install-aftermarket-parts). However, a manufacturer may require a customer to pay for parts and labor for a repair if there is direct causation between a customer’s alteration and the product or service repair being requested. It is in both manufacturer and customer’s interest to follow logic and reason so that the system of good faith is not abused. If this topic interests you please read the law as well as your warranty documentation. Ultimately we are Tesla owners and enthusiasts, we are not lawyers and cannot provide legal advice.
