    Advice on fixing folding mirrors on a model x

    ping, hopefully to bring this to the top? I walked into the passenger mirror while it was unfolded and forced it to fold. Now it won't un-fold. It's not a control issue - if I hit the button it moves a little, but it's mostly stuck. Is there a way to fix this? Looks like I can get the folding...

    passenger side window will not unfold

    most of the threads on this I've found sound like control issues. I don't think this is. We noticed yesterday while driving that the passenger side window did not unfold. After parking, I tried manually (e.g. w/ the button on the touch screen) folding and unfolding the mirrors. The driver side...

    2018 100D - does it have the bat test?

    I’m in service mode. It’s plugged into a 220 src in the garage, charge is 33.5%. I’m looking at the same ‘hv system’ diagram in all the YouTube videos, only mine does not have the health test button. It’s just - not there. Do Xs of this vintage support this? What am I doing wrong?

    anyone used the chargers in O'Hare long term parking (lot F)?

    Will be flying out of O'Hare for a week long trip. There are apparently 24 L2 chargers in Lot F, but I can't find anything about the charge for using them or if you can just leave your car plugged in for a week while you travel. Anyone been there and used them?

    yes, Tesla replaced my non-working keyfob for free

    someone posted awhile back complaining that tesla charged them to replace a non-working keyfob on a vehicle under warranty. I just had the Tesla mobile service guy out to do some recall service items and told them when they called to setup the appointment that one of our keyfobs was dead. The...

    16 mi per day phantom drain, sitting in an airport. 2nd car on the same app the problem?

    2018X is sitting in a (covered) airport parking lot for the past 10 days. We peeked at it for the first time yesterday and the battery was way down. Sentry mode is (and was) off. Car interior says 85deg, and interior climate control is off. We've lost ~160miles of range in the past 10 days. We...

    Tesla Buys $1.5B in Bitcoin, Will Accept as Payment

    why? so there aren't enough whole bitcoins. Fine. price inflates by 100x and the unit of trade becomes 1/1000th of a bitcoin. I'm not a BTC fan, but this isn't a reason to be against it.

    2020.48.30 Firmware curse - now AP and pillar cams gone

    Recently got the 48.30 patch. This is the first non-trivial drive since the update. The cruise-control is behaving weirdly. - no one else around, but multiple times it's acted like it detected something and dumped the speed - twice when that happened it dropped the target speed from 65->55...

    What have you named your car?

    Puppy. Every time you walk out in the garage while carrying the key it perks up like it wants to go for a drive....like a puppy when you walk near the leash.

    Supercharger Connector and Covid-19

    we did a long-haul trip 2.5 weeks ago and were concerned about exactly this. A thing of disinfecting wipes solved the issue, trivially. Before picking up the handle, you just wipe it down, and use the wipe to hold it with while you plug it in. solved, without any real extra fuss.

    what's needed to plug the mobile charger into 220?

    Recently took the X half-way across the US and we'll be staying put where we are for several weeks, likely months. I brought the mobile charger, since this house doesn't have a wall-charger installed. I forgot to bring whatever adaptor it needs for 220. :/ Since we aren't going _anywhere_ for...

    COVID-19: Superchargers Unavailable due to Closures

    Can confirm the larger (new, 250kw) Reno station is closed. There was a truck parked across the entrance through the adjacent parking garage. The older, 6 plug, Reno site is avail but 2 are down. Expect it to be very slow due to heavy demand

    supercharger stations are still up - even w/ everyone hunkering down?

    we've arrived. Over the weekend there was rather more traffic in California than I would have expected. Everywhere else it was pretty much just semi's. We have 3 drivers, and didn't want to stay in hotels, so we just rotated. The only stops were @ superchargers to power up (and nap!). The car...

    supercharger stations are still up - even w/ everyone hunkering down?

    We need to make a treck half-way across the US. Elderly MIL is in the mid-west and there's no one else around to help her. We're heading out from CA tomorrow AM and will be driving the X to get there. (we have a place near her, so we're fine as far as where to stay once we're there). It'll be...
