    Clicking, Popping Sounds During Charging

    Thanks , Electric700. The outlet, plug, MC and charging outlet all seem normal and clean. There has been no recurrence and I intend to let sleeping dogs lie. Considered replacing the MC until I checked Tesla’s excessive pricing.

    Clicking, Popping Sounds During Charging

    Has anyone had this experience? For two years I have charged my 2018 Model S 75D with no problems using the NEMA 14-50 220 Volt outlet I installed in the garage. I charge to about 85%. Yesterday, after completion of normal charging and the mobil connector still attached, a loud clicking, popping...

    How About Some Serious Software Updates

    Anybody else tired of jokes and games? That seems to be all we get these days in “updates”. Some actual updates, corrections and improvements to Model S would be welcome.

    11 Improvements to the Model S I want to see

    Re your first point: why keep charging rate low for overnight charging? When charging is complete it just stops, doesn’t it?

    Steering Wheel Controls Including Horn Dead

    Returning my 2018 MS 75D to service for 5th (fifth) time because all steering wheel controls are dysfunctional. Note this includes horn and ability to reboot screens. TESLA service has been unable to provide durable repair of this problem. Have others experienced the issue?

    Steering wheel controls dysfunctional

    Returning to Assistance Center for third time to correct apparently disconnected steering wheel controls (horn, left and right driving wheel buttons). Wands (turn indicator, wiper/washers, cruise control) operate normally. Disappointing on a five-month-old 75D, otherwise a great car. Has anyone...

    A Male Voice?

    Male voices seem more sharp and clear. Perhaps it is pitch. Same issue with audio books.

    Air conditioning suddenly fails

    A/C in my two-month-old 75D suddenly conked out, fan and other systems operating normally. Has anyone else experienced this? What is likely cause?

    A Male Voice?

    I have hearing problems. Is there any way to switch to a man’s voice in Navigation? Many automobiles offer this option but I have not found it for Model S.

    Issues with Home Owner Associations

    NeverFollow gives good advice. In fact, I was able to include in the contract that Condo management would apply for a commercial category rebate from Maryland state gov and if successful pass proceeds to me. Don’t yet know results but am optimistic that a substantial portion of cost may be returned.

    Issues with Home Owner Associations

    As the first in my large condo facility to buy an EV, I requested authorization from the HOA to install entirely at my expense a NEMA 14-50 outlet, including a meter to record usage, at my allocated garage parking space. This led to ten weeks of intricate negotiations. The HOA committee was...
