Did you ever solve the problem? The rear driver-side door on my 2018 S is unlatching itself, and I also concluded it's the controller.

I have received 1-2 updates since the last post. The notes only referred to minor updates or bug fixes. No new features for this legacy 2018 Model S! Currently on 2023.20.8 Have NOT re-subscribed to FSD.

Yes, still lapsed. Had 5/25/23: Software 2023.12.10 FSD 11.3.6 Navigation NA-2022-28-14046 Have, as of 7/3/23: Software 2023.20.7 FSD (lapsed 6/23/23) Navigation NA-2022-44-14515

No forced software update. We simply navigated to a restaurant, had dinner, then found the third button for FSD Beta missing upon our return to the car. I have driven It a year and a half without FSD. Highway lane keeping has always been a bit “twitchy”, meaning it does more corrections than...

Just FYI… I subscribed to FSD Beta for one month on our 2018 S. It expired today, and all AP and EAP behavior reverted back to the legacy code, as if I had never tried FSD. That’s a shame. I was hoping Tesla would have let us keep using the FSD code, but simply restricted it to highway use. FSD...

Adding to the above post… After the razor blade scraping, I also used 0000 steel wool. That reduced even more friction, but it wasn’t a drastic improvement.

Our 2018 Model S has had chattering wiper blades for months. I've tried Rain-X (original and ceramic), glass stripper, car wax, at least three sets of new blades, bending the arms to make blade perpendicular to the glass, etc. Everything worked at first, but the chattering returned every time...

It depends on what broke on your regulator. Sometimes the ferrule breaks, but in my case the plastic traveler car broke. That’s the piece where each cable end attaches. It rides up and down the rear track. You should be able to make a determination by removing the door panel and looking at the...

I replaced the battery months before trying Tessie, so I can't tell whether the clicking would have occurred with the old battery. My free trial ended, and so has the clicking. If you solve this, please let me know, as I do like the data Tessie provides.

I’ll try the power cycle. Thanks. The 12v battery was replaced in January with this one from Ohmmu: 12v Lithium Battery for Model S SKU T1230S

I tried the free trial for two weeks, and started noticing the HV battery contactors clicking every 60 seconds when car was parked and locked (and had been for at least an hour, sometimes overnight). Both the Tesla app and Tessie apps were closed on both of our phones. I then launched the Tessie...

The driver's side rear door of my 2018 Model S has a nut on the attachment point for the front of the window, and the plastic clip on the attachment point for the rear of the window. So, Tesla must have reversed them on the front doors. For everyone else reading this... Just remove your door...

Is F207 switched, even when Sentry Mode is on? I'm trying to find a power source that turns off when I exit my 2018 S (but leave Sentry on).

What year is your S? And did it switch off even with Sentry on? I'm asking, because I am also seeking switched power even with Sentry on, for my 2018 S.

That's good. Does it also prevent waking the car at other times? For TeslaFi, the clicking was happening when I wasn't even using the app.
