    Refreshed Model S - rear seat rattle

    Are there any updates on a latch re-design for this? Is anyone aware if this problem persists in newer cars or did they fix the problem with a new part? Tesla put the electrical tape on it months ago which fixed the problem but the sound is now back and the tape they put on is partially worn...

    2021+ Model S and Model S Plaid Refresh Issues Thread

    Interesting... I was going to evaluate whether the 'cooing' sound was from the HVAC or the mirror fan using a stethoscope in a quiet garage, but went out to the garage to check after the update to 2022.4 and the sound is gone. Haven't heard it now for 3 days so do wonder if it was fixed with...

    2021+ Model S and Model S Plaid Refresh Issues Thread

    I will check tomorrow, but I have found repeatedly that if I turn off the HVAC it goes away and returns when I turn HVAC back on. Demonstrated this to the technician at our local service center.

    2021+ Model S and Model S Plaid Refresh Issues Thread

    Following up on the 'cooing dove' sound from the HVAC system. I demonstrated the sound to a technician a few weeks ago and made an appointment with service for next week but canceled after I swung by on Wednesday to see if they had guidance from the factory on what is causing it. They said they...

    2021+ Model S and Model S Plaid Refresh Issues Thread

    My Model S LR has this weird 'cooing' sound coming from the ventilation slot on the passenger side of the main screen. Sounds like a small dove caught in the system. Very soft, doesn't appear to be related to fan speed but it goes away when I turn off the ventilation system. Not terribly loud...

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    Mine wasn't here in Northern California 3 weeks ago, got the Pirellis. Bummer since I drive up to Tahoe to ski. Does anyone know if the Pirelli Elects delivered on the cars contain noise reduction foam? Car is very quiet on smooth pavement, wondering if I switch them out at some point to...

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    A few updates to share since I last posted here. Took delivery of my LR on 10/23. Still getting used to the Yoke, like it on the highway, less so in crowded conditions like the parking garage at work. Slowly getting the muscle memory for the buttons - I drove my 2013 P85 for the first time in...

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    Yes. When I took delivery on 10/23 it was missing. The SA who did the delivery 'borrowed' a privacy screen from a demo car. Mats were already in the car.

    Wiki 2021+ Model S Refresh - Missing/Incomplete Software Features

    I did have to ask in 2015 and this time replied to the same email address with a copy of the 2015 thread. Got a generic reply: "...If you can’t find what you’re looking for, contact us to ask a question. Note that submitting a contact request requires you to be logged into your Tesla Account...

    Wiki 2021+ Model S Refresh - Missing/Incomplete Software Features

    Hi all, new Model S LR owner (long-time 2013 P85 owner). Two quick questions for this group: 1) My car came loaded with 2021.31.103; hasn't updated in the nearly 4 weeks I've owned the car. I was expecting more frequent updates. Are they being conservative on pushing out updates right now? 2)...

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    Can't answer for those shipped across the country, but here in Sacramento there's a new Tesla Store that took over a former Volvo dealership - they've been open as a service center for 6 months but will only start delivering at the facility next month. I was told the holdup is that they're...

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    Picked up my car late yesterday afternoon at the Rocklin SC, was starting to rain as I departed and has been pouring all day today. No obvious quality issues that I have been able to detect, the fit and finish are way better than my '13 P85 and my wife's '18 M3P. Drives responsively and fast...

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    Interesting; as Bleedblue82 said, perhaps because I own two Teslas or perhaps because I have FSD? Or because I'm a stockholder? Anyone's guess. Sounds like we'll both get our cars at the end of October/early November. As others have said, I've been here before, I'll believe it when I drive off...

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    5YJSA1E56MF45xxxx so it's a 2021. For what it's worth for those watching their Tesla apps for a VIN, the app has not yet updated to show a VIN despite refreshing it. Have reached out to my SA to learn more about when to realistically expect it to arrive at the Rocklin CA store, I have limited...
