    Scratched my new X front rim :(

    Highly suggest looking into rim protectors. Personally I've used 22" Alloygators on all my cars. One of my dumb moments where I turned too early and completely hit a high curb. Super loud BANG ! Not 1 scratch on the wheel... only banged up plastic protector thats easily replaceable. With OPs...

    Bike rack for model X

    Ive been using Kuat NV2.0 on our X for many years. Definitely prefer these than the hanging style racks !

    Swapping 20inch wheels to 22 inch Onyx

    Depends on your driving / travel needs. By my observation navigating on 20" wheels the estimated battery % arrival is surprisingly accurate. With 22"s it's usually 2-3% less after arriving to destination. Of course further the distance it may impact more. They say overall it should be 10-15%...

    What is the best bicycle rack for a Tesla model X?

    +1 for Kuat. I have a 3-bike Kuat rack that surprisingly can back up into Super Chargers as well. Definitely helps to have a person guiding you as you back park.

    Tesla website indicates 22" wheels impact range by ~12%

    The OEM 22" Pirelli Scorpion tires are a big culprit to the range impact. I recently just swapped them out and put on Michelin Pilot 4S and have noticed an improvement. It's not quite as good as 20" OEM wheels but definitely better. Wh/Mile really ranges on how each person drives and if...

    Suggestions on new tires?

    For normal day to day driving they feel pretty similar to the Pirelli Scorpions.

    Suggestions on new tires?

    I just replaced my 22" wheel tires a week ago and went through the same dilemma so I'll share my experience. As everyone knows going to Tesla's 22" wheels has a pretty significant range hit between 10-15%. I've looked into getting lighter 22" wheels but in the end didn't feel like dropping...

    Does Tesla-certified MX pre-owned ever make sense?

    I just got a Model X loaner from their internal fleet. Its a older P90D without side cameras so must be 2016 or 2017? The touch screen MCU1 feels super sluggish. And the rear view camera looks so pixelated compared to our 2018 model w/ MCU 2.5 Definitely get a newer version if you can

    Model X Wannabe: How to convince the wife?

    Sellings points for me when I convinced my wife. - Falcon wing doors : Save your back loading the kids into traditional SUVs (we had a Audi Q5 before). Model X loading kids is a god send! - Auto Pilot : At first my wife didnt want me to use it since she didn't trust it. Then one day after I...

    Calling all 2018 - 2019 100D MX - What's your range?

    3/18 , MX 100D. Been driving back on 20" wheels again. ~30K miles. 100% at most is around 265. Ive raised my concern with Tesla and they just told me to charge more regularly to 90% daily basis. Ive done so for few months now and.... no improvement. Sucks Ive had 10% battery degradation...

    Hardwire radar installation model x

    Pretty straight forward. DIY job yes. I just popped off the cover piece with a wedge tool. The connector as shown in the picture has 3 wires -- Red, yellow, black. I suggest to use a multi meter to probe. I don't recall exactly which I used. I think theres another thread on here where...

    Hardwire radar installation model x

    +1 hardwire through rear view mirror. I bought a Blend Mount (BV1-2035) and Mirror Tap (MTX-1010). Easy to take off the plastic piece underneath rear view mirror and tape into the 3-pin connector. Radar only turns on when the car is on. And shuts off when it goes into sleep mode. Here are...

    Selling my X

    Depends on how effort your willing to make. Private car sales usually have higher sale price compared to selling to dealers (e.g. Car max , etc...) I've sold 2 cars on Craiglist in the bay area before and had pretty good results. Just need to deal with showing people the car, giving them a...

    Face ID stop working for keyless driving

    Happened to me a few times before. Check the settings in the app to make sure Face ID is enabled. Sometimes it de-selects it after a App update or some unknown reason.
