I got 31k on Goodyear OEM tires. Replaced with Goodyear. May try Michelin next time. Model S 75D 2016.

The new S is longer, faster, and has a more asthetic and proportioned timeless design. Hatchback. It put the "S" in SEXY:). The M3 is its little sibling! For real you can't go wrong with a Tesla!!! Snobert,

My 2016 Model S only cost me about $800 a year with Erie. I have $1000 deductible that declines by $100 dollars for every year w no accident down to $500. I have 3 cars on my policy and have my home owners coverage with Erie also. I'm sure age, location, intended used ( daily driver, pleasure...

I had a door panel issue that was unresolved after two times in service. Clips were replaced but did not solve the problem. Rattles/vibration were intermittent base on music frequency (bass). Tesla mobile service was out for parking brake recall. The tech ordered replacement door panels...

New doors panels under warranty helped with about 95% of the buzz vibrations. I occasionally will play a song with the right frequencies to cause a buzz.

All the time. I use shade all the time and my rear window is tinted also.

Purchase the rear window screen. It works really well diffusing light and glare.

I took a 3200 mile Road trip from Maryland to Houston Tx and back. Model S 75D. rated mile 240 at 100% state of charge. Free Super Charging. I made a spread sheet that tracked miles driven between super chargers (SC) and duration. To do this plot all SC locations. You will get entire Trip time...

Detail spray wax and microfiber towel. (I.e. Mothers, mcGuairs, Lucas, etc.)

Doing the front helps with heat. I used Llumar Air Blue Windshield Tinting. It's clear 80% and is hardly noticeable.

Try setting to bring in fresh air from outside instead of recirculating. Hit climate button and the option should be available.

My weather tech mat on driver side had really become deformed. I call weather tech and they suggested form the mat inside out. I did that for a day or two. When I reformed it it was back to its original shape. Additionally I emailed a few pictures and weather tech sent me a new set of mats.

When you get it working properly. Be careful because it will cycle on off every few minutes unnecessarily and use battery power. Might be better to just turn a con from phone prior to having to drive car.

I've had my car for 1 1/2 years and have never gone thru automatic car wash. My routine has been manual power wash followed by dry with microfiber and detail spray. Yesterday I got lazy and did automatic for the first time. First I saw the rails nears tire and thought about my wheels...

Sept 16 model s 75D. No major problems after 27K miles. Minor issues left mirror and right door panel occasionally vibrate with volume high, but only on certain songs. Mirror replacement and two attempts to resolve vibrations were unsuccessful. I love it...and I used to hate driving. Auto...

I had big problems changing order. If you are with in first seven days you should be able to. After that a change order will cost $500.

I dealt with Alliant in 2016. Got 1.49%. The car maybe considered used which is why the rate is higher.

Pm me. Don't know if I can help but willing to try. [email protected]

Try California car duster. Followed by detail spray and microfiber towels work for me. Same proces for classic car which can't be put through car wash. When my tesla is heavily soiled with grit I spray at car wash followed by detail spray and wipe.

When I summons my car the mirrors food in. The drivers side won't open most of the time with toggling the switch manually. Plan to get it looked on my next service.

I enjoy AP but freak out when a car in front of me is stopped at a light and I am going at a high rate of speed. I find it stops to abruptly. Going 50 miles per hour waiting for it to slow down 500 feet away (radar engagement) is scary. I have started using the stalk to drop the speed from...

Andrew your are a boss now! Congrats. Excellent system. For the community. I hear you are in the $20k - $30k + price range depending on if you want your system tame, insane, or ludicrous. I've actually seen and heard the first ludicrous system by Matt in the link and one featured by photo...

Same here...exact scenario...several items not fixed after second attempt...I gave my honest opinion on the survey. They called and said they want to make it right. I haven't decided to waste my time yet. I'm still waiting on parking brake recall repair.

Same here

Stick to your guns. If you are not happy do not take possession. Once the car is titled you own it and will lose your leverage. Don't get caught in the new purchase. Inspect every inch. I was sick when I pick mine up. I found a deep cratch and other minor stuff after I got home. They will...

Looks like the internal camera is to detect an unalert driver! Bosch took us for a ride in its level 3 autonomous car What are all these levels about? As regular readers of our self-driving car coverage will have picked up on, autonomous cars come on a spectrum, defined by the Society of...

Swag displays in service center is being discontinued in Tyson corner va. And possibly in all according to sales rep a few weeks ago.

Similar problem in Ap1

Tell me more about the red dot. I haven't seen it and did not know it existed.

There are reasons for delaying delivery with not having gaming the system in mind. I order days before the refresh was introduced. I wanted to delay for six months ( October 2016) to push delivery closer to end of year for finial reasons. I financed a portion of my with my home equity line of...

Buddy, Save yourself some aggravation. I had similar situation going from a 70 to 75S. I thought it was unfair. New price boôk and going nowhere with DS and headquarters. I sucked it up and paid extra and was offered 2 years of service free. You are going to love the car and will be very...

The trim has factory clear coat. I do not apply lacquer.

I have the same trim. Easy to maintain. Nice coat of lacquer. Microfiber towel to wipe dust or finger prints is all that's required.

I have the buzz in my panels also. First service they did nothing, maybe because I was waiting on my car and not leaving it over night. I will leave my car next time and refer to this post on my next service in a month or two. How long did it take you or how do you think it should take for...

Congrats, You worked hard so enjoy the spoils of your good labor. If they ask tell them entry level is mid 60s...or my my rich uncle bought for me:)

I think it relates to GPS. I think the map indicates a t-intersection and knows that a reduction in speed is required to make R or L turn. This occurs when I a approach a certain intersection on my morning route AP auto slows down whether the light is green or read.

SOLD

I would have it plug instead of patched. A slime plug kit can had for less than $10 for diy. Any tire shop would charge about the same.

Summons will move your car forward or backwards roughly 40 feet and will stop. I would drive in the garage an use the key fob to exit the car in reverse until you are comfortable trying to let it go in forward. To use the fob instead of phone....press and hold the roof (top) of fob until the...

I went with Alliant credit union lowest rate around with good credit. I put in the application early and delivery went beyond 30 days but the rate was still the same. Most lenders will check your credit again to ensure nothing negative has changed. Real smooth process. They are very familiar...

I have an AP1 car refresh. This it was misty this morning and I was in the left lane using AP at about 40 mph and car just veered into the right lane for no reason. I did not flip the right turn signal. Luckily no car was in the right lane. My car has not been updated with 8.1 yet.

I have textile. Very happy with them.

I have a 2016 refresh 75D and had slight body molding (chrome) misalignment near Windows on passenger side that was taken care of after delivery. Plastic spoiler near lower grill was not installed correctly and was taken care of also. I did not find second issues until a few months after...

The main difference is cars with out fog lights don't have the two chrome luvers near the fog lights Go to the design studio and select pup and then with out. It may still show the difference.

Tesla should consider teaming with Ford Motors. They have experience working with aluminum body repairs.

I think you would like autopilot. Makes stop and go traffic bearable and is really nice for highway driving. Check to see if this can be upgraded later if not in current budget.

You might be able to write off both state sales tax on your federal tax return. In some states you have a choice of writing off sales tax or state income tax. Usually it's advantageous to go the income tax route. In your case writing off both sales taxes might be better. I feel your pain.

Take pictures. Document all deals in writing with store manager. I Had a similar experience. Small scratch on hood and other minor stuff not found in the service center at delivery. Time is of essence get it fixed as soon as you can. They attempted to buff out scracth but it was to deep to...
