    Model S very poor "Vision Line Height" for Tall Drivers?

    This is my experience as well. I am 6'3" and in the "normal" seat position I definitely have challenges seeing stop lights that are overhead. Leaning the seat back at a decent angle certainly helps and it isn't that awkward once you get used to it. I imagine it is a bit more difficult as you...

    Scary Random emergency braking on highway

    These events were somewhat commonplace years ago when AP 2.0 was initially released. Overhead highway signs, bridges, etc. more often that not caused my Teslas to slam on the brakes and much like you've described almost caused multiple accidents. Over the past 2 - 3 years the tech got much...

    FS: Original 21" Tesla Grey Turbine Wheels (Staggered) w/Tires

    Thanks to everyone who has reached out via PM and responded to this thread. Unfortunately I am still not able to ship these wheels and don't think that I will be able to do so in the future. To that end, I am going to reduce the price of these wheels down to $800 total for the set. I realize...

    FS: Original 21" Tesla Grey Turbine Wheels (Staggered) w/Tires

    Yes, these do include the TPMS sensors. EDIT - To clarify, the TPMS sensors were included when they were on the car. I have no reason to believe that Tesla would have removed them when they were taken off and replaced with the 19” wheels.

    Ah yes. Tesla service at it again in the East.

    I have the same issue going on right now with our Model X, also in for an MCU upgrade. I dropped the car off at the local Service Center on Wednesday of last week and was told that they were running a little behind and wouldn't be able to work on the car until Thursday or Friday. Now I was a...

    Model X reliability...

    We've had our Model X for over 2 years now. Fortunately we have not had a single problem with the falcon wing doors but we did have an actuator go bad in the driver's door that was replaced via mobile service. The issue that Uncle Paul is pointing out about the shudder, we had the same problem...

    Model S P90DL, does it come with Full Self Driving Capability ?

    From what I recall, the P90D was no longer configurable in October 2016. I believe that the configurable options at that point were the P100D or the 90D. This site is full of folks that maintain that type of info so I'm sure someone will check the math.

    Entitled at the supercharger

    I fell into this way of thinking as well. What he was actually saying is when you interrupt the charging process (the green to blue light that you mentioned) that the priority goes to the second car plugged into that same circuit. Doesn't necessarily need to fully unplug in order to affect the...

    Ahhhh, yes. Now I see what you're saying. That's unfortunate.

    Entitled at the supercharger

    This isn't actually possible right? I was under the impression that all Teslas locked when you walked away from the car...including the linkage to the charge cables.

    Everlasting pursuit of a dashboard rattle

    I had the exact same problem that the SC just fixed yesterday under warranty. Went through at least 2 or 3 visits where they could not replicate the sound I was hearing. Feelsgoodman now that it is fixed.
