Something is broken, or not aligned properly. A Model X should be perfectly smooth at any speed or acceleration. My 2022 is. After I replaced the tires with new Hankook iONs, it is also quiet.

It is normal for them to quote the fix. Ultimately with warranty, you will not be charged

Live Camera View did not come out on the Model X (and Model S) until the 2021/22 refresh.

When you are on the two lane road, does it say speed "auto" on the ICD? That is an optional setting inside autopilot. I had to turn autospeed off in the settings, simply so I could slow down to 25 mph, for school zones. Speed auto would rip me past that zone at 45 or even 50 mph. When you...

You need an alignment. Badly

The Model X has a single USS topside. If you lower your garage door to within a for or so of the car's roof, then position the car so the top sensor is directly under the edge of the partially closed door. You should be able to trip the "remember" action message. I had to do this in my...

Yes, the 2018 has the feature (actually I think ALL Model X have the feature). The doors may only open a crack if it thinks there is something nearby.

It has air suspension, yes. But there is no ability to adjust the response curve. Only the height You may be limited to just moving the car a few meters forward or backward. Also don't take anything I say as gospel. Software features are likely packaged differently for Europe. No Tesla has...

You are going to be quite disappointed, coming from a 2023 Y. The 2018 X does not have Smart Air suspension. It does have Air Suspension, and you can set it to low, medium or high, but it is not fully configurable. It does not have One Pedal driving (that came out mid 2019), It also does not...

I agree completely. But you can reset the current drive at any time, which can give you a smaller window of time. But still far from what the legacy vehicles have available.

Camp mode will do it

I am a big fan of the Hankook A/S, but winter has all but abandoned Indiana. People around here look at you funny, when you ask about "winter" tires. You might have to run up to Winnipeg to reliably find them.

Interesting. TBH, my car rarely makes those mistakes. The most common one I've noticed is on the interstate, where we have dual speed limit signs next to each other, second being the truck limit. It's a crap shoot as to which one prevails. I don't think I have ever noticed had it reading a...

You are warned that it will make mistakes. It never had the ability to read no turn on red. You just have to hover over the brake, or the right scroll wheel to take it out of the turn. Some stop signs are slow to approach, but you can tap the go pedal if you feel like it needs to get on with it...

The invoice (downloaded to your device) will have the detail. It might not be any more useful, but it is what it is.

I have found Tesla generates no noise whatsoever, very clean. It also is virtually impervious to high levels of RF generated inside or near the vehicle. The only problem I've ever had was with my 2015 S, when I would park near an FM radio tower (where I have several repeaters). There are three...

"Normal behavior" simply means do what you have been doing for the last sixty years with your hot vehicles. You've got a handle on it. Tesla just gives you an extra twelve hour reprieve, that you did not have before. Yes, I would like it to be on forever, especially if the vehicle is plugged...

True. Revert to normal behavior. Cars get hot when left outdoors in the sun. Don't leave your heat sensitive items in the car.

It depends on what you consider damage. I mounted an NMO base through the roof, at rear of my 2018 X. One of those long throw NMO mounts that could go through something like an inch thick. The spline appliqué is fairly thick plastic, but it is anchored the steel spline underneath. I think it...

In settings::autopilot, you have to turn off "Auto speed." After you do that, the right scroll wheel works just as before.

It would help if you included the version you are running. I am on 12.3.6, and it performs all of the things you mention just fine. Except #3. It is supposed to just stop, so you can get out of the vehicle. You have arrived. Yes, I would like it to pull in to my driveway by itself. Maybe...

I have always had it on my 2022 (June). Not particularly useful, but it has been there since the beginning.

You just have to tweak the settings to your tastes. Nobody can dictate that to you. That being said, mine is set basically flat, with a slight goose to the high end. Very unlikely that will be right for you.

There really isn’t a “spring” release, per se. Tesla releases software whenever there are improvements or bug fixes. I have had at least six updates in the last two months, and both our vehicles are on 2024.3.25 (FSDs 12.3.6)

It is unlikely to work on older cars as well, unless they are running old software. The change occurred when Camp Mode was added. There is a connector on the left side of the driver's foot well, for the connection of a trailer brake controller. That connector has always-on 16V available...

Sounds like the Model X 16 volts fried it.

On a legacy Model X, the key fob is required to drive. Are you stranded somewhere?

If this is really true, you are in need of an alignment, badly. There is no reason folks cannot get at least 30,000 miles out of a set of tires. I typically exceed 40,000 (unless I break one).

Hankook ION EV tires for me. Discount Tires carries them. Not square, but extremely quiet, much better than the OEM contis. Plus probably 10% better mileage, but the jury is still out on that. I need to come up with a road trip to verify. Certainly not worse.

Make sure they can handle 16V. I've noticed that since Tesla upped the low voltage to 16, lighting options have become a little scarce.

I am on 12.3.6, and it just stops in front of my house. One thing that 12.3.6 does much better, it will drive through a traffic light changing to red, instead of jamming on the brakes. Also got auto park features. (I went from 12.3.4 to 12.3.6, so maybe 12.3.5 did that too).

Headphones. Lol

I would not file a claim anyway. For $2,000 it's not worth the hit to my insurance. Claim free discount is worth hanging on to, IMO.

TBH, because the Model X hood is so short, the cams behind the glass have a pretty decent view of everything forward. Plus they are behind glass, reducing the effects of crummy weather.

Change just for the H of it? There are three front facing cameras, which one do you want? How about looking out the window? The Birdseye view in FSDs version 12.3.6, is really quite good, much improved over 12.3.4 (my vehicle skipped 12.3.5). Ok... Actually I like it where it is. It can be...

With your description (crack on the inside) it should be a warranty repair. Especially if the camera housing is not right.

The part is relatively inexpensive, around $50-$60. My wrap shop had to replace two of mine. One during the wrap install and second some months later. Service Center normally has them in stock.

Then just turn it off.

I received two fobs with my 2022 Model X, original batteries now coming up on two years. Now, I hardly ever use them, mind you. But I will take one with me to get the car washed tomorrow.

Yes, it is an accident waiting to happen. The next speed bump or railroad crossing could easily generate 10X the static load. You need a trailer to carry the loads as pictured.

So you left it on the ramp, in the water? I doubt there is any alternative. It might start if you can get it dried out, but you have to at least get it out of the water. Time to unpack the tow hook at a minimum.

For years, AES Indiana (FKA Indianapolis Power and Light) offered a great rate plan for EV owners. Basically a TOU plan with bargain basement rates during off-peak times, 2.3¢/kWH in the summer and 2.7¢/kWH in the winter. It did require a separate service entrance and meter to be installed. It...

It is at the very bottom of the ICD, barely visible.

Sounds pretty normal to me. What were you expecting? Yes, I'd like it to pull into my driveway, but we're not quite there yet.

At least w 12.3.4, you must provide rotational torque every few minutes, cabin camera or not. You also can touch operate any of the steering wheel controls, like the volume control or any of the buttons. The wheel rotational requirement is significantly reduced from previous versions, but still...

Do you have more than one wall connector? If you do, attempt a charge from the same WC the X is using, make sure it still charges at 48. Since your X is showing 24/24, it is very likely you have lost one of the 24 amp chargers. The other thing is the wall connector also controls max charge...

The other thing to keep in mind is, the point at which charging stops, is not always the same. I have both our cars set to charge to 75% at home, overnight. When I start out in the morning, I will have anywhere between 73% and 78% on our X, our Model 3 is even more variable. If you are...

You should have tried Roadside, it is just below Service in the main menu. You were stranded, or about to be, therefore you needed help NOW, not in two weeks. Roadside is very responsive, like in minutes.

Change the setting in Settings::Locks Driver Door Unlock Mode. (turn it off).

The walk-up feature can be turned off or not, depending on your preference. It makes no difference to the driver door unlock mode (driver door only or all doors). If you set unlock mode for driver door only, you will not be able to open the passenger door remotely. The five passenger has two...
