To close out my own question, the Tesla Service Center confirmed that individuals CANNOT purchase parts directly through the EPC.

I'm trying to order a few parts and install them myself. Tesla Service Center says to order the parts directly in epc.tesla.com. I already have an account there, but I've spent >1 hour trying to figure out how to actually order something. Anyone successfully order directly from EPC and can...

@Psionic001 , I'm in the same situation. Did you find information or a solution for fixing vs. replacing these Power Struts?

I ran across Tesla Battery Charging Data from 801 Cars from 5 years ago, which is really interesting supercharger charge power versus battery type and state of charge data. There's like 100 variables that determine maximum charge rate, but this data is still pretty telling. Does anyone have a...

@Ramp1999, I also just started using the Comma 3 and Tinkla adapter on my 2013 MS. B/c the adaptive cruise control (ACC) is jerky, I'm considering buying the Pedal Interceptor - Tinkla: Tinkering with Tesla to hopefully make ACC less jerky. Has anyone tried the Pedal Interceptor and did it...

I removed the "ASY IP SIDE COVER LEFT 1028357-00-A" (i.e. little cover on the left side of the dash between the dash and driver's door and discovered a strange device (see attached). It's about 1"x1"x5", wrapped in abrasion tape, and has 2 wires coming out of it. My curiosity is getting the...

Ran into an odd one couple days ago that had me panicked for a while. I have a 2013 Model S85. Returned home to my garage and tried to charge using the Tesla Gen 2 mobile connector on 240V 14-50 outlet, which I've done for ~3 years. This time is different though: Before charging, Tesla shows...

@MS-Learner, I have always had similar experiences with my 2013 MS 85 as you. I've owned the MS for 3 years, and when supercharging on long trips (i.e. 500+ miles), the supercharging stops were ALWAYS longer than the "charging time remaining" estimate on the screen. Typically, supercharging...

Just wanted to add my experience. My 2013 MS was having "navigation initialization" errors. Navigation system was totally non-functional. 6 hours at the Tesla Service Center, $300, and a new SD card later, and navigation is back to fully functional! I debated instead doing the MCU 2 upgrade...

I want to DIY replace my 2013 Model S 12v battery since the "replace me" error code just popped up. Following this video (), I confirmed the battery is the C&D DCS-RIT, which apparently can be replaced with the C&D DCS-UNCR. I'm having trouble finding a direct replacement. I checked all the...

@Mjsais , My older 2013 MS has similar eMMC errors. There seems to be inconsistent experiences replacing just the daughter boards on these older cars. Now that it's been a couple months since you had the daughter board replaced, are you seeing any issues?

@JayJ , I have a similar 2013 with eMMC issues. It seems some older cars are successfully just replacing the Tegra daughter board. Did your service center replace the MCU at no cost, even though our cars are out of warranty?

I've never shipped wheels. Just by looking online, it seems somewhere between $40 and $90/wheel?

I'm willing to sell these 19" Model S wheels individually for $50 each plus shipping, free pickup, or I can deliver in the Central PA area.

There doesn't seem to be much interest in these on TMC. Is there not a good market for used Tesla wheels?
