    Got 2022.8.10.11 Software update today...

    Not so far…

    Got 2022.8.10.11 Software update today...

    That’s the only noticeable difference to me. The release notes were useless as always. Just the vague reference to “improvements” and a laundry list of things from the previous updates. In my case I noticed the render of those upright tubes they use to prevent idiots merging into a left turn...

    Credit card slipped under sliding console door (tip to recover)

    OK, let's dispense with all of the usual non-productive comments up front. Yes, you should never leave a credit card or other similarly thin object on top of the center console sliding door. Yes, you can always get a replacement card from your bank (although you'll have the hassle of re-writing...

    Tampa/Brandon Paint Shop Recommendation?

    I took my Model S through an automatic car wash the other day and now a piece of paint about the size of a dime just fell off the driver’s side door and my side view mirror paint is peeling too. I called the certified shop in Lakeland and they wanted $2300 for these two tiny blotches because...

    Steering wheel buttons+scrollers not working

    2016 MS 75 just had a total fail of all controls including horn. I could only do a “car off hard reset”; as any method involving scroll wheels or buttons was non-responsive. Still dead as a doornail. Does anyone know if the air bag is also affected? Seems like a safety issue based on having no horn.

    Steering Wheel Controls Including Horn Dead

    Has anyone had a successful fix that doesn’t involve replacing the entire steering wheel? My 2016 MS 75 is now sadly out of warranty and I have the same issue. All steering wheel mounted controls and horn are dead, my only way to reboot was the “car off hard reset” and it did nothing. Does the...

    Supercharger - Plant City, FL

    8 fast 250kW chargers. Nobody else is here (12:30pm), but I can barely break 115kW. Zero shade available with outside temperature of 84F. I could see this potentially affecting the charging rate as summer Florida temps rise. 7 stations to choose from and somebody pulls in right next to me on...

    2021.24.28 Rolling out to MCU1/FSD MS/X

    I got excited by the image of album cover art on an MCU1. Then I realized it was just a streaming service, not the USB. If he really wanted to be a hero of our group, bringing that back would give him HoF honors.

    2021.24.28 Rolling out to MCU1/FSD MS/X

    I was prepared for that too when I took it in for the frunk latch recall and asked if they could replace the recalled eMMC at the same time. I was shocked when they said yes. This is eMMC replacement #2. They had trouble burning the latest firmware into it and I have had intermittent display...

    Preventive eMMC replacement on MCU1

    Sure I understand. What part is unclear to you?

    Preventive eMMC replacement on MCU1

    So that explains the detailed email I got today. "If your vehicle is operating software release 2020.48.12 or newer and the eMMC malfunctions, then the rearview backup camera will remain available, the exterior turn signal lighting will remain functional, and the windshield defogging and...

    USB thumb drives no longer recognized

    I have an MCU1 vehicle with the non-operating USB music issue. I just was notified of 2020.12.11.5 software update availability. Hoping this fixes the issue. Has anyone else updated and did it solve the problem?
