    Model 2017 takes a while to wake up in the morning

    Our 2017 P100D S has recently had this problem twice. I didn't wait for 3 minutes but instead did a reboot. It seems the car is going into deep sleep after sitting a few days.

    Supercharger - Chowchilla, CA (LIVE 27 Apr 2023, 12 V3 stalls)

    I didn't take a picture but it looks like the PG&E service has been installed. I'm guessing they are just waiting for final inspection at this point. I hope it opens soon as I live 1 1/2 miles away and have free lifetime SuperCharging.

    FSD Beta testing open to all with next update?

    I didn't even request Bread with my button! Maybe if I had the FSD recipe, I could get the button. Seinfeld, right?

    XM/FM Radio with MCU 2 Upgrade

    I'm guessing you got this resolved with a software modification. Sorry I just saw your message.

    Wiki Consolidated eMMC Thread (MCU repair) (Black Center Screen)

    Just so everyone knows, if your car was under warranty when your emmc died you will get no reimbursement. Mine was dead and I opted to pay for the MCU 2 upgrade. Apparently if I would have waited 2 more months for the warranty to expire, I would have received some reimbursement. But as usual...

    Steering pull after half shaft replacement.

    Apparently, the SC did not do the alignment correctly. So that only took the better part of a week....

    Steering pull after half shaft replacement.

    Has anyone had this problem on a MS P100D? After many complaints about increasing vibrations under acceleration, I finally got the SC to replace the front half shafts. My tires had 35k so I opted to have them changed at the same visit and the vehicle aligned. I reviewed the post alignment...

    P245 50 19 PIRELLI CINTURATO P7 ALL SEASON RUN FLAT

    Yea, I just got them. They are very stiff sidewalls. I just couldn't resist the deal. Brand new shipped for $500 total (including the great state of CA high taxes). The only thing is they are 2017 manufacture date. In perfect new condition, I'm sure they were in a warehouse somewhere not...

    P245 50 19 PIRELLI CINTURATO P7 ALL SEASON RUN FLAT

    Where exactly do they rub? On the inside fender well covers or on the fender metal?

    P245 50 19 PIRELLI CINTURATO P7 ALL SEASON RUN FLAT

    Do the rub when turning or when turning and running over bumps?

    P245 50 19 PIRELLI CINTURATO P7 ALL SEASON RUN FLAT

    Has anyone installed a 245 50 19 on a MS? They are 1" taller and I want to make sure they will not rub. I can get a smoking deal on these right now. Thanks, BD

    XM/FM Radio with MCU 2 Upgrade

    Bob, It's well worth the wait. But as Tesla owners, we want our stuff yesterday! Another benefit is the 5GHz wifi. My MCU 1 would always disconnect from wifi and sometimes wouldn't even see the access point (about 10ft away). The dashcam/sentry viewer is pretty cool too.

    MS Seat Cooler Issue

    That's what I figured. I waited for the new SW but same problem. I figured it was a pinout problem on a connector. I guess the tech guys at my SC are just "pull and replace" and not so much tech.

    XM/FM Radio with MCU 2 Upgrade

    Got my MCU2 and FM/XM radio upgrade done on 11/19. All that I can say is WOW, what a difference. Was it worth the $3k price tag? I guess it depends on your financial situation. I don't have $$ coming out my ass, but I can afford it and pay my CC of in 2-3 months. So for me, I would say a...

    MS Seat Cooler Issue

    So I had my drivers seat replaced under warranty. When I got the car back it appeared the seat cooler did not work. After messing with it, I found that when it was set to high, it was on low, when set to low it was on high. The service center says they have to order another seat. Any one...
