    Have you had MCU1 issues? Some good news today.

    I got the e-mail 2 hours ago. I'm due $1,987 + tax. :)

    Cannot access HomeLink while in Reverse

    Why don't you just let Homelink automatically close the door for you (Auto-close when leaving)?

    Likely MCU Failure (MCU1 eMMC)

    I had everything except the turn signal dropouts (?) for 3 months before my failure. I wrote it off in my mind as either an AT&T or 3G card issue. I've been doing a lot of audio streaming which probably accelerated the eMMC failure.

    Likely MCU Failure (MCU1 eMMC)

    MCU1 in my March 2015 S85 failed last Sunday (froze and then didn't come back from a soft reboot). Car has 64K miles. Goes into the Scottsdale SC next Thursday.

    Tesla Cybrtrk

    This is what I see... The originally released image from Tesla shows the (glass) roof with leading running/clearance light strip OVER the windshield. It would replace the roof of the cab in the image below. The new image shows the headlight strip, which is roughly where the tops of the...

    New: Adjustable camber bushings.

    Any testimonials w/before/after tire mileage going from -2 to -1 camber? I get 19,000 miles out of rear tires (no rotation) and 27,000 miles rotating front to rear. Just wondering how many more miles (1.5x... 2x... ?) I'll get with reduced camber.

    Rejecting Car During Delivery Inspection - Typical Process?

    Unfortunately, the 30'x30' area outside my garage where they worked is the only place around my home that doesn't have security cam coverage. :(

    Rejecting Car During Delivery Inspection - Typical Process?

    After mobile service was out to my house working on my Model S, I found a chunk out of my rear bumper and scratches right below where they were replacing a drain in my rear hatch (a TSB, nothing that I asked for). Also the leather in my steering wheel was gouged (passenger airbag recall). They...

    What else does Tesla need to bundle to increase Model S sales?

    Put Model S/X on the shelf for 2-3 years and use that capacity to build pickups. There will be demand for (updated) S/X when you bring them back.

    Eeeeeek! Drove an ICE car for the first time in a year.

    THIS^^^ I was so rarely driving my Jeep (conscious of the diff in fuel cost, plus everything else you mentioned) that I was quite often jumping out of it while it was still running. This was followed by taking a few steps and thinking "Oh yeah, I need to lock the doors w/the remote"...
