Summary
This article provides step-by-step instructions for accessing Tesla's Service and Collision Repair Information. It highlights that Tesla no longer requires a login or subscription to access standard repair manuals, though diagnostic software still requires a paid subscription.
What to do on the job
Access Tesla's free service portal to locate specific repair manuals, using Section 10 for bolted panels/bonded glass, Section 11 for closures/door glass, and the Collision Repair Procedures for structural repairs.
How to use it
Use this document to justify research time on Tesla estimates by showing that official, model-specific repair procedures (such as Section 10 for glass/panels and Section 11 for closures) must be accessed directly from Tesla's service portal for every repair.
