    Model 3 rear door physically stuck after getting slammed

    I would like to report that I completed this fix successfully on our 2019 Model 3 rear passenger side door. My 13 year old daughter, who is sometimes known as "Stompy" for her attitude when things don't go her way caused this problem with our car. She angrily slammed the door super hard and it...

    AP1 ONLY Please -- life after 2018.50.6

    So, I went forward with the most recent update and there are no changes that I can detect in the Autopilot of my 2015 S70D AP1/MCU2. I guess that is good news. As soon as someone sees an update with changes to our Autopilot, I hope someone will comment. Is it possible that "Mobile-Eye"...

    AP1 ONLY Please -- life after 2018.50.6

    Has anyone had any adverse effects from the "recall" updates, for example with Autopilot on their AP1 / MCU2 car? Mine is a 2015 S70D.

    Considering an early Model S

    My Model S70D from 2015 only has 10% battery loss at about 100,000 miles. Besides replacing the air filter there has been no maintenance. I have replaced the 12 volt battery as expected and the tires. My only repairs under warranty were door handles many years ago. Sometimes I think I want...

    [Resolved] Tesla offers 75kW battery replacement for $13K but then says its a 60kW

    I was wondering if you could tell us more about your battery status before it died. Was it sudden? Had it been declining prior to the battery's demise. Many of us are curious.

    Free supercharging transfer

    While on the subject, I was wondering if anyone knows the following variation on this subject: In 2018 I purchased a 2015 Model S 70D directly from Tesla as part of the CPO program. It included the SC01 free supercharging. As the car was purchased "used", does the SC01 transfer if I sell it...

    Talk me out of buying a 2016 70D - range

    Reinax, I just noticed this discussion and wanted to know if you have made a decision? I have a 2015 S70D and normally a distance of 250km/155m is of no concern for me. My maximum charge is now 345km/215m and my highway efficiency is getting me to about 90% of that number. I looked at...

    Model S delivery soon. Second Tesla. Two Home Chargers or not?

    The wife and I have had 2 Teslas in the garage for 3 years now. There has never been a time where we needed to charge both at the same time. We do not have long commutes. That would be the only reason I could imagine. If we had 3 Teslas we could still manage with one charger I believe...

    How Can I Track My Other Tesla Via My MCU Screen?

    Dannycamps, what I think I am looking for is a Tesla specific app that works in the browser. The iOS and Android apps wont work and my experience on the PC is that there are specific programs. -kamm145

    How Can I Track My Other Tesla Via My MCU Screen?

    Hey SilverGS, So you are using Google Maps on the car screen. What are you using to show location via Google Maps? -kamm145

    How Can I Track My Other Tesla Via My MCU Screen?

    I have a 2015 S70D with the MCU2 upgrade. The wife drives a 2019 Model 3. Occasionally we meet up somewhere with the kids or are picking up and dropping off from multiple schools. My question is: Has anyone set up something using the browser in the car to track the location of their other...

    Keeping my Model S as she ages

    Hey Kavyboy, I own an 2015 S70D. My car is very stable and reliable. I will probably keep it for a while. Could you tell me who you use for insurance? Also, what is your maximum range? Mine is 221. Thanks. kamm145

    Installed a kit to mirror phone on MCU1

    Thanks for sharing your modification. My question is, do you still have the back-up camera integrated and usable?

    Switching from 2019 Model 3 SR+ to a 2015 Model S 85D with AP1

    I'm sorry to hear about the phantom braking. It is not a problem on the Model S or Model 3 that we have. My recommendation is to be thorough with both your research of the specific Model S 85D and the Ford Escape Titanium.

    Switching from 2019 Model 3 SR+ to a 2015 Model S 85D with AP1

    Valtor, I have a 2015 Model S 70D originally with AP1. We then bought a 2019 Model 3 SR+. Both cars have similar battery and acceleration. The advantage of the Model 3 is that it has more of the technology and bells and whistles. I even upgraded my MCU to MCU2. This is an improvement...

    Any reason not to get a 70D?

    I purchased by 2015 70D in 2018 used from Tesla. It was probably a lease return. Except for some minor stuff it has been quite reliable. Original battery capacity was 240 but I get 225 max after about 70,000 miles, so that's pretty good. I recently got the MCU2 upgrade and I and the family...

    New 2021 Model S Unveiled January 27, 2021

    The interior looks interesting. I will wait to see how reviews of actual use of the new controls and steering wheel develop. I'm sure that we will learn more in the next week or so. Does anyone know about deals being offered for pre-refresh new Model S cars?

    4 years with Model S

    I also own a 2015 70D. The car is rated for 240 miles and I have had a consistent 225 or so as a maximum for the last 2 years. How much are you getting? I only charge to 100% on long trips and wish I had a little more range, but most of the time I am just around town and it isn't a problem...

    What is my car worth? tesla low balling me

    Does anyone have a definitive answer to this resale question: I have a 2015 Model S 70D that I purchased in 2018 from Tesla as part of their CPO program and it included free Supercharging. Would the Supercharging transfer over to someone in a private sale?

    App won't connect

    Some people with this problem toggled mobile access to off then back to on and that solved the problem. I ended up having a similar problem that led to the replacement of the daughterboard of the MCU1. 2015 S70D.

    Most unreliable second hand model S

    My 2015 Model S70D was purchased through the Tesla CPO program about 2 years ago. I had 2 door handles fail (covered by 4 year warranty), and my 12V battery failed. Strangely, the 12V was also covered by warranty. In any other car that I have owned I would have had to pay for a new battery as...

    AP1 ONLY Please -- life after 2018.50.6

    My S70D (2015) just downloaded 2020.24.6.11. It has the new unlock at home feature. I think that this is a nice little addition to the features of my car. Sometimes I just want to open the car to put something in or get something out and I'd rather not always have my fob on me. I am trying to...

    Does Tesla cover 12 volt battery replacement under the CPO warranty?

    Hi Tress, I actually had Tesla Mobile Service at my house today to replace my 12V battery. I purchased a 2015 S70D in September 2018 as a CPO. It was free of charge. The invoice said, "Pay Type: Basic Vehicle Limited Warranty". It was an easy process. I'm not sure why they are giving you...

    Parking assist

    I also very much try to park away from everyone else and in a traditional parking lot it is very rare that I park next to everyone. For parallel parking, I have had the car do this 2 or 3 times, but usually the curbside parking spot is large enough to drive into, or if not I am feeling...
