Congrats! You got a killer deal! I paid more that 2x for a similar car two years ago and I still love it! I WILL upgrade to a Plaid someday. Regarding the sound system, Check out the NVX subwoofer kit on Amazon. It made a world of difference to my base sound system.

My 2017 MS doesn't rattle.

I'm sorry that you had a horrible ownership experience. I still want a Plaid. When my P100D grows up...it's gonna be a Plaid:cool:

Yeah, I ran a wire through the liftgate through an existing hole and tapped into one of the reverse lights. I think...i can't remember. I used this license plate light bar found on amazon. It's pretty bright! I need to rig up some kind of glare shield because it's so bright that it messes...

The used Plaid prices are so tempting! But that also means that the prices that we can sell our P100D's for will also be lower. I would like to wait until used Plaid's w/ "track mode" enabled hit the market.

I have the same car as you do, '17 P100D, and my avg. wh/m is similar ~ 415-425. My wife's '22 MYLR gets ~ 300 wh/m. Our older cars are just less effficient than the newer Teslas.

The raven versions have adaptive suspension. Although, I have read mixed reviews about it.

Mine has them, too. Not worth $1,000 option cost.

The owner is gonna have to go retrieve their car from BM? That sucks!

This is my situation exactly. I bought my ‘17 MS P100D w/ 16,xxx miles for $73k two years ago, which was a decent deal at the time. The Plaid was launched a few months later at $129k. They are now priced at $89k, but my P100D is only worth $45-50k. it would still cost me ~$50k w/ taxes to...

I would go for the performance version. Ludicrous mode is fun. Check out this article and watch the video: Tesla Model S P100D vs. 100D: Is it worth the extra $36k to upgrade?

I have a 17 model s p100dl and the wife has a 22 MYLR. I love my MS w/ Ludicrous mode, but 80k miles is a lot. I would go with the new MY.

Maybe you could find someone the forum in your area to give a ride in their plaid.

THANK YOU! This did the trick.

Does anyone have an updated link to buy a soft close kit for the Model S?

Cool! Brand new HV Battery under warranty:)

Was it in the pool?

It's situational. My previous (DD) car got such bad gas mileage (~12mpg), but was fun as hell to drive. I rationalized this by telling myself that my fuel costs were "entertainment costs". My average is ~ 430 wh/mi and I can only count on around ~200 miles of range. I am pretty sure that...

I can’t wait until the Plaid pricing drops to where I can “upgrade” my P100d for one…

I like the Model S. But, 113k miles is a lot of miles…

My roof box was installed in the center of the roof racks and had shifted all the way to the passenger side, caused by high winds during the storm. I think this lateral force toward the passenger side combined with uneven roof glass gaps contributed to my cracked glass. To be fair, the roof...

Update: I just got back from the Tesla Service Center. I asked the SC rep to take a look at the roof glass and I pointed out that the roof glass is misaligned. He acknowledge that the roof was "off" and he made a note to ensure that the installers install the new glass roof to spec. I then...

The wind noise on my MS P100D was primarily coming from the little triangular windows on the front doors. I manually “adjusted” (read: bent them) outward about an 1/8”. This made a big difference on my car.

The whole market was nuts last year. My wife’s 11-old car was giving her problems and she needed a new car ASAP. She was considering other EV’s and those companies were charging “market adjustments” of $+6k. I urged her to get a Tesla once the prices starting creeping past $50k for a VW...

Well, that sucks!

It's possible that screwed up the install... But, I did watch the videos/pictures, measured, and I made sure that the J-hooks were installed correctly, by feel, in the correct spots contacting the metal anchor points under the glass. I have used the Thule cargo box many times with our MDX and...

Thanks!

I was hoping to reply to this thread sooner. I finally heard from my insurance and they have instructed me to go to Tesla and get an estimate and for them to approve it before allowing Tesla to perform the work. I will report back after my appt. Feb 8th (soonest available). I am not expecting...

I just wanted to share my experience with the forum. We recently drove up to Tahoe between Christmas and New Years and drove home during the storm. My wife noticed that her roof was cracked where the drivers front roof rack mounting foot is installed. I had installed roof racks on her car a...

I had one replaced just before my warranty ran out.

I just installed a set on my wife's MYLR. Very cool product.

Damn! I wish we could have waited to purchase my wife’s MYLR. On a positive note, we just took the car on our first road trip skiing and exceeded my expectations. 😁

Thanks! This is helpful.

I want to add an LED light bar for brighter lights while in reverse. Does anyone know how I can tap into the 12v reverse lights?

Congrats on the new car. I’d buy these wheels in a heartbeat, if I didn‘t already have a set of VS Forged wheels.

GLWS! What did you replace the Tesla with?

You will want the newer MCU2. So, if you choose the Sliver car with the older MCU, you will have to spend $2000 for the upgrade. Also, the Silver paint color is coming back!

I’m glad that you guys like it. I just received one and will be installing it in my wife’s car tomorrow.

I have been to the The Driveway in San Jose. I recommend them. They installed rear camber arms and did an alignment for me.

No, I had a 60 amp dedicated circuit-breaker installed in the main panel just for the Wall Charger and a line run to the garage bypassing the sub-panel.

I just wish my old-ass 2017 MS got all the new features that the newer cars get in the updates. Like, why can't I view car camera images from the app? I do like the fart noises....

I paid $1800 and had a new line run over 100 ft from the main panel (60 amp) for my wall charger. I'm now considering daisy-chaining a second wall charger. I'm also in the bay area.

Sorry! My mistake. I didn't know that the newer cars use BT TPMS sensors...

That sucks! In CA, we have high sales tax ~9.5% on cars but no recurring taxes other than annual DMV registration fees.

I bought my wife a ‘22 MY LR w/ 19” Gemini Wheels. I was hoping to find a deal on a used MYP but the ‘22 MY that I found was pretty good deal. It only had 168 miles, blue/white for $64.4k. I was also in a hurry to buy because my wife’s ‘08 MDX was dying. Anyhoo, I have a spare set of...

Sounds like a pretty good deal. I recently bought a model Y for the wife. I would have jumped on the deal that you got. Congrats!

What is personal property tax?

Congrats! Let us know how you like the windshield tinted. I am thinking of getting it done, as well.

I just went through this issue when I received my new wheels. My TPMS was not working. The sensors that were installed are these: "HUF TPMS SENSOR 315/433MHZ". Which are the same frequency as yours, so yours should work. If one of your TPMS sensors isn't working, they all will not work and...
