I much appreciate your input. you specific experience is very helpful. I bought AP1 knowing it would be eclipsed. I very much expect HW3 will not achieve FSD, but to the degree it can assist with safety, traffic jams (not accurately controlling distance is a concern) and highway driving I am...

I have read a lot of opinions here. I have an AP1 MS which I must admit I have been very happy with. Reading the transition from RADAR to Tesla Vision, it seems it's about 50:50 here in terms of people's experience with EAP/FSD getting better or worse. So here we are in Feb 2023. There's a...

S60 - oh well :( This is because the recovered cell packs are of no use, right?

Gonna say Chicagoland based on prior posts.

Yep snow accumulating on the front, time to hand over control to AP1 - not my choice. Even with relatively light snow covering you may well find AP1 following the black lines (tire tracks in the snow) left by other cars thinking they are the lane edges - and we all know how good people are at...

Looks great!

Not sure that does solve it 99.99% but I am pleased it's not an inconvenience to you. For my wife's use it's a PITA.

How can it possibly be that Tesla can manage FSD, but not provide an option to avoid Peak Demand charging tariffs. Even our 2016 Kia Soul EV can do that :rolleyes:

Thanks for the detail. Rial actually responded to me today, confirming the same - Tesla OEM. They also sent me a nice detailed document, apologizing for it being in German, that seems to confirm certification of the wheels was with the Tesla original OEM lugs. The ones TireRack supplied with...

Is this the recommendation now? Not for my 2015 - which dropped a few percent in it's first 10K (miles) and is unchanged in the last 55K. There was a step change increase of a few miles once on a software change, and again a slight drop on another. But real world use, and charged range claim...

Got a beautiful set of the KBA 47892 Rial Lugano OE 19" wheels recently. Not sure I trust the lugs with them due really small mating surface. So wondering what lugs people are using with theirs. Anyone got a set of Gorilla Nuts they are happy with on these rims? Or what other branded lugs are...

Regarding costs for out of warranty repairs - find out if Xcare will offer an extended warranty on a third-party purchase (not a salvage title, I can save you the call). That might factor in to this decision (I am a customer of, not affiliated to XCare).

I picked 'em up, they are sold ;) Thanks for holding them @Barenaked.

If the TPMS are old enough that they've aged out sat idle, I'd also be checking the date codes on the tires - just so you know what you are dealing with.

Agree with @ucmndd on salvage, and on the early ones . I have a Jan 2015 MS and it too has had little go wrong with it. Like any vehicle you can be lucky or unlucky with the specific car, and in most cases the way the prior owner treated it will have a huge impact on it's longevity. Sadly...
