We just got confirmation from the Tempe, AZ SC that the 3.0 pack in our Roadster has hit the dreaded power degradation issue. We took it in after it shut off under acceleration throwing codes #924 and #259, and now it will only drive in limp mode with the current limited to 150A. The pack was...

The memory stick needs to be formatted as FAT16. In order to format a 4GB stick as FAT16, a 2GB or smaller partition has to be created on the stick first. Then that smaller partition can be formatted as FAT16.

I don't know if this listing by an Oregon dealer is a scam on CarGurus, but this salvage Roadster is actually being sold at auction Jan 4th by Copart in the Chicago area: https://www.copart.com/lot/46691937/

We picked up our Roadster today from the SC with the new battery. Forwarded the data to @bolosky, our pack is starting with a CAC of 214.86Ah. We were very happy with the process, originally it was going to take until mid January to get the pack in from CA, but another battery became available...

We just pulled the trigger to upgrade our 1.5 to the 3.0 battery. Two weeks ago the VDS threw a sheet alarm error while charging.

Yes, Missing Homelink from VDI Thanks NEWDL! This is the case I have. The homelink button is missing from the VDI. I'll do some more checking to see if the module is broken or missing due to on/off settings. I will re-post once I figure it out in case it helps others. Spread the Tesla love!!

Hi All, I'm so excited to be the second owner of a 2008 Tesla Roadster #417. I was born to drive this car!!! I was hoping to tap some long time owner expertise on an issue I have. My home link option is missing so I can't set it to open my garage door. I have the navigation system and I read...

We recently purchased a 2008 Roadster, and I attempted to download the logs. I followed the instructions on Tesla's website to start the logging, but when I plugged in the USB stick nothing happened. No notice on the display and the LED on the stick never lit up. Is there any other trick to...
