Have been waiting for this MS upgrade, to upgrade my MS, however I have a MX P100D on order with July delivery. Any news on whether or not MX is upgraded atvthe same time?

I couldn't get Tesla to even verify a simple thing like if the back seats have isofix. I am speculating that the car is in its early stages and they have yet to figure out the back seat setup. In the test drives at the launch there is almost no footage of the back. Anyone at the event take a...

I have had no problem with my previous Teslas to sync the calendar. Now the car says I must allow my phone to share my calendar. I have allowed all syncing in my Samsung S8, but cant get the calendar to be visible. I use the google calendar app. Any ideas?

20 inch friction Pirelli Sottozero snow tyres, dd usage. Just remember to add antifreeze to washer fluid. The warm weather package is also useful. Only proplems are that sometimes windows fog up and door handles freeze and range is lower, but otherwise a good winter car. I have creep on...

I wonder if the 100D will be able to make a lap before heating?

I think this time round it is fair as they let you upgrade. I was pissed when I had the P85D and upgrade was not possible. Hard car for an owner who wants top tech!

Still waiting for my 100D upgrade. Anyone heard of a timetable for this?

I figured you did :). The dash view is just for show, its true vale is independent of the screen. I never look at it in my Q7/X5. If the system detects something it warns you with a large icon/alarm in the dash/HUD, shines the object and even autobrakes. Sometimes when it is snowing heavily I...

P85DL. Silent.

If you are a real sportscar enthusiast would you buy a heavy Tesla for an only car? Model S competes in a league of heavy, luxury ubersedans/wagons that can kick some supercar butt (Porsche Panamera, RS7, M5 E63 AMG). But you cant compete in this class without air suspension. Tesla is bought for...

Again when I speak about true night vision I mean pedestrian/animal detection and integrated lighting (blinks light beam and warns in dash/HUD). Not present in a Tesla. Actually make the missing list1. adaptive high beam 2. Night vision 3. HUD.

Yes it is the old on-off system as in the Xenons. However, in most situations this just means they are off. Like in my Bmw i8 laser lights. The adaptivehigh beam means that they are actually on. Feg the left high beam might be on, while the right is dimmed, or they might be split if driving...

Yes they seem very similar also on the drag strip, similar times but higher mph and also the comparison vids from TRC show the 100D to be clearly faster at higher speeds.

So I am getting my showroom car finally. I have the 1071941-00-C battery in 90DL, while I am waiting for the 100D upgrade. How should this battery perform? What kind of performance? Seems to be one of the fastest ones?
