Rear Air Spring Module - DM for Tesla Model S (2012-2021) | 6006352-00-D
The Backbone of Dual Motor Rear Comfort
Your Tesla Model S Dual Motor (DM) was built to deliver power and poise—and the rear end takes just as much punishment as the front. The 6006352-00-D rear air spring module is the hidden system that keeps the back of your DM Model S steady, whether you’re accelerating hard, hauling passengers, or gliding over rough roads. Designed exclusively for 2012-2021 dual-motor variants, it’s not just a suspension part—it’s the key to preserving that signature Tesla balance of performance and comfort, right where your passengers feel it most.
Why Dual Motor Models Need This Rear Module
Dual Motor Model S vehicles carry extra weight in the rear (thanks to the second motor) and deliver instant torque that can strain the rear suspension. This module is engineered to counter those demands:
Load-Smart Adjustment: Whether you’re packing the trunk for a road trip or seating three in the back, the integrated air bladder inflates in 0.6 seconds to maintain rear ride height. No more sagging tails or uneven tire wear—even with 500+ lbs of cargo.
Torque-Ready Damping: When you hit the accelerator, dual motors send power to the rear wheels, creating sudden weight shift. This module’s hydraulic core stiffens instantly to prevent rear-end squat, keeping the car level and the tires planted (critical for avoiding loss of traction).
Mode-Sync Performance: It talks directly to your Model S’s computer to match driving modes. In "Sport," it firms up to reduce sway during hard turns; in "Comfort," it softens to cradle passengers over potholes. It even lowers slightly at highway speeds to improve aerodynamics—all automatically.
Built to Outlast Dual Motor Abuse
Reinforced Air Bladder: Made from 5-ply EPDM rubber (stronger than single-motor variants), it handles 25,000+ inflation cycles without cracking. Road salt, rain, and UV rays? No match—this bladder resists corrosion, even in coastal or snowy climates.
Heavy-Duty Steel Casing: The outer shell is forged from high-tensile steel, rated to support the rear axle’s 2,200+ lb load (25% more than single-motor models). A zinc-nickel coating adds extra rust protection, so it stays strong through years of winter drives.
Leak-Proof Valving: The solenoid valve (which controls air flow) is sealed with 氟橡胶 (FKM) O-rings—resistant to extreme temperatures (-40°F to 257°F) and hydraulic fluids. It’s pressure-tested to 160 PSI (3x normal use) to eliminate slow leaks, the #1 cause of rear suspension failure.
Signs Your DM Model S Needs This Module
Rear Sagging: Park on level ground and notice the rear sits lower than the front, especially when loaded. This throws off alignment, wears rear tires into uneven "cups," and strains the drive shaft.
Bouncy Backseat Rides: Hit a bump, and the rear bounces 3+ times before settling. Passengers will feel every jolt—a clear sign the air bladder or damping core is worn out.
Warning Lights: A "Rear Suspension Unavailable" alert on your touchscreen often points here. The module may fail to hold pressure (leak) or the valve may stop responding to mode changes.
Delayed Height Adjustment: When you switch to "Low" mode, the rear takes 4+ seconds to lower (it should happen in 1-2). This means internal valves are clogged, robbing you of aerodynamic efficiency.
