    Slacker Hardly Works

    Hate to nit pick, but for $100K car, I would have hoped for more reliable system for radio/streaming. As for the comment by wayner about software engineer, don't get me started about how displeased I am with the enhanced AP I paid up for. It is flaky at best and unsafe at other times.

    Slacker Hardly Works

    2017 S75D. The Slacker radio almost always takes 30 seconds or so to bring up anything. Then, when playing a song, it stops to buffer about every 20 seconds. I talked to Tesla and they are saying it's a server issue on the side of Slacker and they were working on it, which is not the answer I...

    Should I Upgrade to LTE?

    On the Slacker radio, mine is almost not worth using. It will load after about a minute then play for a few seconds at a time. I complained to Tesla. They said it was a server issue on the Slacker side and they were working on it. Not happy with this answer. Seems there are a lot of things Tesla...

    Power Tools for Tesla-Not Working

    I did get a response from PowerTools via email talking about the issue with the ampersand. My PW does not have anything except upper/lower and numbers. I did have the car's name with a "$" included. I have since renamed with only alpha and still can't get it to work. Any other thoughts?

    Power Tools for Tesla-Not Working

    Yep, logs in just find and displays correct VIN. I dropped them an email just now. I'll see what they say.

    Power Tools for Tesla-Not Working

    I downloaded the Power Tools for Tesla app by Ndili. Logged in. Turned off Wifi as instructed. But when I try to "Start," the three-sided" blade-looking things quiver. I tried reinstalling. I tried starting the app while moving (as instructed). Nothing seems to work. I have attached a screen...

    License Plate

    My 2017 MS has a front plate mounting frame. In FL, we do not require front plates. I put in a cool Tesla plate just to make it look good. If you do not have a spot to mount the plate, is there a way to use the tow hook socket? I have an Aston Martin with no front plate mount. They make a...

    Uncorking

    Yes, you do get use to the performance. I traveled this week and drove an ICE rental car. Felt like I would never be able to merge into traffic with such low power. Got home into the S and realized low 4's aren't too bad. But I am still wondering if the motors, batteries, fuses are capable of...

    Rearview Mirrors Tilt in Rev but Drivers Side Does Not Return

    I looked around the forum but did not see a similar thread. Maybe someone can help. I have a new S75D. The mirrors tilt down when in reverse as they are set to do so. But when I begin to drive, only the passenger side comes back up. The driver's side stays facing the road. But, if I change say...

    How many miles out of a S75D?

    Yeah, just found that. Interesting. I did not think the miles would fall off that quickly at higher speeds but I guess they do. Also interesting how many more miles you get at lower speeds.

    How many miles out of a S75D?

    Don't get me wrong, I love my S75D and all the tech it brings. However, I replaced an Escalade EXT that was the family vehicle for going on trips in the range of 300-500 miles (after 500 miles, either fly or stay home). I took my first test run to a city about 350 miles away. Had the car plan...

    Uncorking

    Ok, maybe I missed this through four pages of threads but I’m curious. I just took delivery of an S75D in September. 0 to 60 is low 4’s. I think it was advertised as 4.3. Is this the best it gets? Am I at the best place I could be? Like everyone else says, I’ll take whatever extra speed they...
