    Boombox Custom Sounds (not working)

    Got it! The file name of the sound file can't have spaces in it. Changing "Jetsons Car.mp3" to "JetsonsCar.mp3" got it to show up in the list. To make sure it wasn’t a fluke I changed another sound file from "Terminator Theme.mp3" to "TerminatorTheme.mp3" and that one shows up now too.

    Exactly 5... going to try just 1 and see if that works

    Boombox Custom Sounds (not working)

    Wanted to start a thread for Model S owners having trouble with custom sounds in Boombox. Seems like some Model 3 owners have gotten it to work by doing the following: - Create a partition on an existing USB just for Boombox or use a separate USB drive - Format the USB drive as exFAT - Label...

    No joy here. Formated a new USB stick in exFAT. Labeled the drive as "boombox" and put the mp3 files in both the root of the drive and in a directory called "boombox". Rebooted the center screen too and nothing. Note: I'm in 2020 Model S not a 3

    Why do the performance variants have less range than the non-performance?

    The difference between range as of today is 348 miles for the Performance and 390 miles for the Long Range version. What makes the performance rear motor different than the long range motor? Specifically, what's the technology that makes it a performance motor and thus makes it less efficient?

    Slacker streaming starts halfway into song

    I have the same problem and its been going on for a few months now. If I play a song frequently enough this ends up happening. I've also noticed that if I un-favorite or dislike the song that's having this problem it doesn't remember that. So the next time that song plays it's still marked as a...

    165k Miles Battery Degradation

    Sorry, for the late response. I didn't see this until today. No, my car doesn't have Chill mode. The Mobile Tech said the same thing and for a brief moment I thought I was about to do a face palm. But he looked and my car doesn't have it.

    165k Miles Battery Degradation

    I will, just can't do the testing this weekend. On Monday or Tuesday I'll do the charge to 94% and 8 0-60 runs with powertools and post the results. As far as the other comments, I only charge to 100% when I need to. Unfortunately, for me that's more often than I would like because of my work...

    165k Miles Battery Degradation

    I think its software related. The mobile tech said he didn't see any errors but agreed that it was underpowered after driving it. He mentioned that it was possible something wasn't done right when my car was put back together at its last service appointment (my onbored chargers were just...

    165k Miles Battery Degradation

    Ok, I did a few 0-60 runs using the "Powertools for Tesla" app and here's what I got: In all the runs my power varied between 295kW and 302kW and never went up past 302kW. For some reason the app won't register a 0-60 time. When it does register a 0-60 time it says "-158804.." Because of...

    165k Miles Battery Degradation

    The mobile service tech just left. We did a test drive and he said "it should be better than this" but didn't see any errors in the computer to explain why its so slow. He advised that I schedule an appointment to take the car in to a service center. So I called the service center and scheduled...

    165k Miles Battery Degradation

    I have an iPhone 5 but there's no cell service on it. I take it I don't need cellular service to do this?
