Door seals: adhesive like the R1?

[LevelHeaded]

Anyone know if the door seals on the R2 are adhesive like the R1 and teslas, or if they’re attached like all normal vehicles?

The adhesive constantly fails on R1s and Teslas and is dog shiza. Hoping they changed how they attach them for the R2!

I had my weather stripping replaced only to have it fail again within a couple of weeks. I tried to get it repaired again only to find out that the part is back ordered due to the issue. Still waiting to hear back..

Yeah. That’s how my R1 and teslas have always been. But on every other car I’ve owned, the weather stripping attached to the to the vehicle using much more robust methods

Can't confirm for certain, but based on my observations from seeing it in person, it seems like the R1 and very likely an adhesive.

I had my weather stripping replaced out of warranty for $1500 for all 4 doors. A month later it was already peeling away because they didn't remove the old adhesive. They redid it again and its been holding up for 5 months now. If it peels away again, I'm just going to get some 3M VHB tape and fix it myself.
