    Rear trunk won't open

    Just joined this club, 2015 70D, out of warranty. I ended up going through the steps on the video to pop the trunk, and once I got it opened, I then pulled the fuse for the power lift gate (fuse #42 in box #2 for 2015 vintage) and now it operates as a manual trunk (makes the premium package of...

    Supercharger - Meridian, MS

    Was there about a month ago traversing Atlanta to Dallas via I20. The mall is open, but on not much going on inside. The Hilton (Tru) is a nice backup, I've stayed there a few times.

    Supercharger - Birmingham, AL

    I came through Birmingham this past Sunday around 9am and was not bad at all. I was on I20 east bound (from Meridian MS) and tried to follow google maps nav on my phone (the in car nav does not show the bridge is out), and ended up missing an exit and had to take I65 south for a bit. I wound...

    Supercharger - Birmingham, AL

    I came through there a few weeks ago from east on I20 and it was not too bad, but don't follow the in car nav, it does not know the bridge is out. Use another nav device. I'll be hitting it from the west on Sunday, it will be interesting to see how to get there.

    Were early 70Ds with 230 EPA?

    2015 70D here as well. 240 was the epa, and charged to 100% last month and got 235 miles.

    Can charge but cannot supercharge

    I had this happen to me recently, ironically on a trip to McKinney from Atlanta. The car had trouble starting to charge at Superchargers along I-20 and finally when I got a hold of roadside they were able to see that the DC charger had developed a 'leak' which I thought was an odd symptom...

    Tesla went offline while on a trip and is not drawing any power. How screwed am I?

    this happened to me as well, the car was at the airport (and plugged in) for over a week and a few days into the trip I could not access it via the app. I thought for sure when I returned that my 12v battery would be dead, but it was just the center screen that went down. Luckily the car...

    Sunroof leaking

    @Whyrad I just dropped off my car, there is not a service bulletin on the pano roof leaking...sorry about that. This was just an issue that appeared on my car, the service tech said it happens to some cars but not a lot.

    Sunroof leaking

    Unfortunately i don’t have the bulletin in writing, I think it was told to me by a service technician when the leak was discovered during my annual service. I’m getting the work done on Wednesday and if I get the bulletin, I’ll post it so you can have it for your appointment.

    Sunroof leaking

    i am getting my pano roof seal replaced in a few days after a leak developed toward the front right driver side on my S, but my leak was not nearly as bad. I think the service center told me there was a service bulletin on the seal, but I’m not for certain. I have a 2015 build, pre-facelift...

    12v battery needs replacing after 7000 miles/9 months

    Dang, I think I remember reading about your dealings with Marietta when you were buying the car (at least I think it was you). Marietta is my local service center and they always seem to be on top of things when I needed service. Sorry for the nonchalant service you seem to be getting from...

    Need advice, first Long drive: Frisco to Birmingham, AL

    I did Atlanta to McKinney round trip last Thanksgiving in a MS 70D and it was not bad. The only nerve racking thing was on my way back from McKinney to Atl, the Shreveport supercharger was shown as down on the nav. That forced me to fully charge in Lindale to try to make Monroe, La which I think...

    Is there a Tesla Wave or hand sign?

    I’m always waving at other Teslas. I came from a Wrangler so the Jeep Wave is instinctive and carried over to the Tesla.

    Metro Atlanta Area Tesla Spotters Thread

    I’m always waving at other Tesla’s, I probably get 25% wave backs. I think a few times others have waved at me before I could initiate, which is always nice.

    Thinkware F750 shutdowns

    I have the Thinkware F750 dashcam on a pre facelift 70D with the hardwire kit wired to the fuse box. The camera goes into parking mode just fine, but only lasts a few hours then it shuts off. At one point, I think I heard the actual dashcam say it was shutting down due to low power draw, or...
