    How I Recovered Half of my Battery's Lost Capacity

    High tech is not for everyone but I, for one, love all the "goodies" on my Mdl S. Oh ya...I'm 78 but I don't dwell on it.

    48.26 to 48.30...? + Wiper anomaly, and a Range/Distance Query

    48.30 is NOT just for the model 3. Learned this from others on this forum.

    What the heck is this?

    Of course the obvious next question is... what did I gain over 48.26?

    What the heck is this?

    My BAD! Of course a reboot should be tried before bringing my troubles / concerns to this austere group. In my feeble defense, very few times have I needed to reboot after a s/w update. This is because the last routine in all updates is suppose to be a reboot. If you're enough of a Tesla...

    What the heck is this?

    According to Teslascope, 48.30 is an update for Mdl 3 only. Hmmm, which begs the question, why did the system allow it to be installed on my mdl S. Could it be the UI developers responsible for the “small font” fiasco have been moved to a different group responsible for update distribution...

    What the heck is this?

    Quite familiar with the “normal” arcs that come and go as one travels. They are dynamic and have questionable value except when parking or entering a tight space (my garage). These are static and as you see them depicted. As stated, they appear at precisely 8 mph and remain until one drops...

    What the heck is this?

    2018 Model S with all the goodies. Installed version 2020.48.30 yesterday. Just went for a short drive and was quite surprised to see this on the drivers console. This anomaly occurs at 8 MPH or above, only. Thoughts?

    Elon; The Y Needs this update..

    Absolutely, although not just for the Model Y. I'd like to have it on my new Model S, as well. Short term solution would be to activate 4-way flashers ANYTIME the car is in reverse. I know, I know, this may be redundant with the white back-up lights but any thing we can do to avoid a...

    German Court Bans Tesla from Advertising Autopilot

    ...and yet Tesla stock closed at $1,500 / share on Friday, up only 300% since March. He must have a lot of folks convinced there's a valid business model here somewhere.

    Sheltering in Place - Charge or not

    Why? No need to set to 50%. No valid real data here. ?

    Navigation update

    This has nothing to do with the car. Think about how gps works. The very first time a GPS receiver is turned on, it must determine where it is ON THE PLANET! Sparing the details here, this initial determination of location can take a while. After that, each power up, the receiver first...

    Tesla coercing software updates!?!

    Sounds Sounds like you should get rid of that piece of s..t and buy a car that doesn’t get updated regularly. If you have issues with a product or company, move on.

    Wow, we need to find another way to heat EVs

    I I just know you’re kidding. Isn’t the idea of an EV to get away from fossil fuel? Duh!

    Wow, we need to find another way to heat EVs

    ...and the heat pump would be powered with....? I’m thinking the battery that makes you go!

    WOW...Superbowl commercials taking aim at Tesla.

    Perhaps that’s why the stock hit $700.00 this morning.

    Has Model S quality improved?

    Hey Mike, (Woodstock, Ga.) my 2018 S75D had / has the same issues. In addition to the yellow screen stripe which the Tesla SC in Alpharetta continues to side step, , I also see numerous proximity alerts from the sensors on the rear, passenger side. Driving nowhere near any obstacle, the...

    Model S blinking Morse code with headlights when parked?

    2018 Mdl S 75D. I first noticed this same activity a week ago as I removed the charging cable. As you all know, to do this you have to push the button on the "nozzle" which usually wakes up the car. First a short flash on the passenger side, followed by a longer flash. (I suppose you could...

    Ya might want to get a little help learning how to post. Duplicates are too, too much. Personally, I prefer pics that include the car... but that’s just me. Cheers.

    Windshield wipers are horrible, and arguably dangerous

    Mine too. I took slow motion video to show the techs at the Service Center. They said “ have a nice day”.

    2017 MS 75D - Battery Pack degrading much faster than previous generations

    Believe this! I have a Sept. 2018 S75D which I charge at home with the Tesla wall charger, about once a week. Usually fill er up to 80% but occasionally to 100%, which indicates 259 miles or spot on according to Tesla specs. Two days ago charging to 80% gave me 275 miles. What!! I then...

    TeslaCam vs Aukey dashcam comparison

    ..now if Tesla can just get the backup camera to work reliably, I’ll be a happy mdl S owner again. Mine fails about once a day and the service center says it “may” be fixed with a future s/w load.

    You're missing the point.

    BACK-UP CAMERA SCREEN IS BLANK AFTER UPDATE

    Happens to my new mdl S all the time. Service center says perhaps a future update will fix it. No eta.

    cannot get rid of streaky film on windshields of new S

    You’re doing it wrong. Apply twice, the wipe off with a really clean but damp microfiber cloth.

    Model S windshield wiper upgrade!

    Just took my mdl S to the service center for the same, ongoing stuttering wiper. They said it’s normal. Escalated to the service manager. No better. So sad!

    Windshield wipers are horrible, and arguably dangerous

    RainX doesn’t help much. A known and ignored issue.
