    Musty smell when starting model S

    Hi, I've had my Model S for about 2 years. Over the last 4 months or so, when I start the car, I get a musty smell coming from the air vents. It goes away after about 2 mins. It happens every time I start the car, and I have already changed the cabin filter. It is a similar smell to if you put...

    Recommendation for snow chains that won't damage rims Model S 21inch wheels

    I am trying to find snow chains for my 2021 Tesla Model S that has the 21inch Arachnid wheels. I purchased some from Napa Auto Parts and installed them in my garage, however the metal hooks are sitting right on my rims! These will for sure scratch/damage the rims. Can anyone recommend some...

    Should I ever re-calibrate my Model S' cameras? If so, how often?

    98 Score - Got FSD Beta?

    I was on 98 for about a month. I didn't get it at the next software update, it came about 2 or 3 later. I had close to 1000 miles when I got it

    First bit of snow this morning...

    I just switched out my brand new summer tires for all season tires and the snow performance is excellent. It's definitely the tires. The summer tires that came on my Model S were even bad on wet roads, let alone snow!

    FSD performance noticeably worse in light rain, overcast skies

    I've noticed that the performance of FSD is noticeably worse in slightly bad weather (light rain, overcast skies (but not dark)). I'm seeing more phantom breaking, erratic steering etc. I'm surprised by this, as I wouldn't really call the conditions that bad (I'm referring to scenarios when the...

    Procedure when FSD beta misbehaves?

    In my Model S - I don't have a "top bar UI". Anyone know where the video icon is on the S, or how to report FSD issues? Car did some crazy things today on 10.8

    Paid for FSD, when will I get the software?

    Is 99 or 100 required to get into the Beta? I have read a lot that 99 is sufficient?

    Who with a score of 100 and more than 100 miles is still waiting for FSD roll out?

    I just drove 40 miles, 100 score the entire way until 2 miles from my house when I briefly touched by brakes because someone pulled out in front of me (very light touch of the brakes) and I ended up with a 99 for the trip. So annoying!!

    Safety Score

    I got a software update yesterday and I was excited that it might finally be FSD. However it was just 2021.40.6, no FSD. I reached out to Tesla and they said "congrats on the safe driving, keep it up. We don't know when you will get FSD, but it will come soon". Best car ever, worst customer...

    Wind Noise Reduction Kit

    I couldn't get it to fit correctly so I sent it back. The instructions also said if you don't have wind noise (which I don't), then you don't need it

    Safety Score

    I have the exact same thoughts. I use AP on the freeway all of the time, otherwise someone will cut me off and I will get dinged on my safety score. I currently have a safety score of 99, but the only incidents that have dropped me from 100 are completely out of my control and are not unsafe...

    Glovebox SSD Error messages

    I worked out how to fix this in case anyone is interested. I found this video: explaining what to do. Basically, remove the USB drive, perform a reset (hold down both wheels on the steering wheel/yoke, wait for the system to reboot, plug back in the USB stick. When I did this, the error went...
