Yes Isopropyl alcohol takes it right off. I am going to try a silicone seal. Both screens work fine despite the bubbling and now leaking glue

Not sure where that is. Looking under the car I don't see a label. I have a remanufactured part# on receipt

The receipt shows a battery replacement "LV Battery". I could be wrong but I was thinking the LV meant Lithium. I did not talk to service rep. about it.

I'll just wait a year or more for bugs and issues to be fixed. But yes, Tesla will sell to the wealthy and Youtubers with an inflated price. Capitalism at it's worst.

Only alert I received was a "low voltage battery". No warnings prior or any indication at all that the battery pack had an issue. Tesla initially was going to send mobile repair but then called me stating it was HV battery. Weird. I was advised a 90 kwh would not be compatible. Picked the...

So, it turns out I DO need a new battery pack. Service rep. states 10 days at least and most likely WILL be a 75kwh replacement I'm sure it's a reconditioned one. Of course i only know this because we had a 50 degree January day here, a great day for riding the motorcycle ! It is impossible...

August 2016 Model S refresh . Waiting on word for a High Voltage Battery issue. ALert said "car may not restart" so I drove home before shutting down. Low voltage alert bricked the car and I was thinking I need a new 12v battery after 7+ years of use. No big deal right? Looked into doing it...

I wanted to hold on to my 2016 Model S until getting the truck but, too long. Love the car but re-sale is pretty good still. Just can't seem to pull the trigger on selling. Knowing Tesla production will just keep getting pushed back

Yes I remember getting the full tour and happy, respectful sales people in 2016. Time moves on and not knocking Tesla, ya just can't give the personal touch as much to millions of sales. When I bought mine I think they were still in the low 100,000's of sales. I was usually alone at most SPC's...

To me it's all in the SUPERCHARGER network. Jaguar, Hyundai, Ford etc... probably have nicer interiors IMHO and I am not loyal to Tesla, though I have had good experiences at my local service center. (before the 3 and Y took over ) :) But I need the superchargers if I want to travel, which I...

Canceling Twitter was one of my better decisions the last year

Thanks for the write-up. I am fixing mine next week and assumed I would be removing the bumper. I'll try this first. Same thing happened to me. Tire debris struck the front bumper knocking the sensor inside the bumper. I can feel the sensor and clip which appears to be intact. I have spent all...

Safety score? My S is 5 1/2 years old. Never heard of this

I had my chip replaced. No real changes. I asked about my slow start-up time and SC stated the new chip would fix it. It did NOT. I love my 2016 75D and have just lived with cold feet in Winter. Floor heat SUCKS! I turn up the fan and open a window. :) Selling is on my mind off/on.

Thanks for the responses. IK 2 months later. Had issues signing in to forum and gave up..............for 2 months. :) I have the refresh front bumper but not AP2 which came out about a month after I received my car in August 2016. AP1 has always been good to me so, no regrets. I was checking...
