    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Re: the center console gear thing, I have found that I have to touch one of the buttons with the brake depressed to activate it, which takes almost a second, at which point the lights come on, and then I can select D or R or whatever, and that works, but also with a slight delay. BTW: when I did...

    Cost of upgrade path (basic AP -> enhanced AP -> FSD)

    We got it three days ago, and it appears that Tesla triggers the start of the trial at the software install time, because we got an email shortly after the install completed. So far, it's been pretty amazing. We only enabled FSD 11 a couple times, weren't at all comfortable, and ignored it. FSD...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    The good stories of delivery are shorter and less noticeable than the less-than-good ones. Our was great. Love the car. We're 3/4ths the way around the country on a month-long road trip to visit family and see sights, and it's been flawless.

    Agreed - we didn't turn on FSD during our three month trial that just ended two weeks ago. IMO, if they want to sell folks on FSD 12, they should give everyone a trial of the new system...it might even work on me (but I'm skeptical).

    Child seat flap cover

    I was just about to post this question too -- it seems odd that they just "float", and as a result, tend to float open. The open slots aren't at all attractive, so ... it would be nice to get them to stay shut somehow. Anyone?

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    We had a pretty flawless delivery in December. Since then, only one minor thing has shown up: our "frunk access cover" or whatever you call that thing - has one missing clip (the white inserts), and one of the two guideposts was flattened, and immediately broke off after touching it. These...

    Autopilot needs manual lane change without disengage

    We recently upgraded from a 2015 MS to a 2023 MSLR. As one person earlier in this thread noted, the 2015's basic AP does exactly what folks here want: on AP, engaging the turn signal 'does its best to check that it's safe' then changes lanes and turns off the signal, all while under auto-steer...

    Cost of upgrade path (basic AP -> enhanced AP -> FSD)

    We have a 2023 MSLR with only basic AP. The trial of FSD just expired. We didn't use it much, so are likely to be interested in just enhanced AP. Some day, especially if FSD v12 is as good as it seems like it might be, we may be interested in upgrading to FSD. Right now AP is $6k, and FSD is...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I had luck without needing to use chemicals -- I used a lot of quite warm water, a fishing line, a plastic spodge tool and a lot of patience. (It took a bit over 30 minutes). I think it turned out looking great - no signs of where the adhesive was.

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    The day of our delivery in December 23, the Plaid system was down. Our SA said it happens every other month or so (just our luck!). Fortunately there was a bank nearby, and they could make a cashier's check. We got to inspect the car before handing it over. It's been great so far, with over...

    Ditto. This free trial is not working at all as a marketing effort on me.

    Top Speed reduced to 130 for LR

    It sounds like (and appears to me via many pokings around, including service mode) there is no way to check what the software limit to speed is via the interface, is that folks' understanding as well? I'm not going to the track to check my top speed, but I did get a late '23, whose top speed was...

    Our December 2023 MSLR has V's.

    Service manual no longer free?

    That is exactly correct, and bizarre (to me). With Firefox the site looks completely different and you can't get at the service manual, but in Chrome, you can. Thanks! (the technology exists for the Tesla site to report browser incompatibility)

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Today we took delivery of our MS LR (Ultra red / cream / wheel). The payment system was acting wonky, so we had to get a cashier's check and come back. Other than that, everything was tip-top. Panels well-aligned, paint in very nice shape (but a bit difficult to really check -- it was drizzling...
