    Color Match for MC Red Paint Repair

    I was read-ended recently while sitting at a stoplight, and was left with a few cosmetic scrapes on the rear bumper and took to car to a Tesla-approved body shop for repair. In short, the shop had difficulties matching the repainted bumper the the rest of the car, and is stating that they will...

    Tesla owners who Crossfit (or sweat profusely)

    I bought one of these. It isn't a traditional seat cover, and it stays put a lot better than the draped towel method. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00LK9NZV6?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_search_detailpage

    Anyone using HomeLink with Direct Drive Sommer garage door opener?

    I am using the Model S Homelink function with a Sommer model 1041 successfully. The first time I programmed the Model S it was a little flaky. I tried again with a new battery in the opener remote and it significantly improved operation. Now it works well.

    Firmware 7.0 Beta Discussion

    I couldn't agree more. Tesla will update the UI in 7.0 and will surely do so again at some point in the future. We will all apply the update because while the UI change may take a little time to get used to, we all want the additional features (Lanekeeping, self parking, Tire pressure...

    Unable to log in to app

    This same thing happened to me recently. What fixed it for me was to go into Android Settings --> Apps --> Tesla and perform a "Force Stop", "Clear Cache" and "Clear Data". After that when I opened the app I got a blank login screen. Provided credentials and all was back to normal.

    Info on Autopilot + v7

    From the Youtube video caption: This is a promo video produced by Bosch, not Tesla. I would venture to guess it is largely CGI.

    Model S for commuters?

    What else can I add, but to say that I love my P85D as a commuter. About 80 miles round-trip 2-3 days per week. Most of my driving is freeway, and with TACC is is sooo much more relaxing. Next gen seats are also extremely comfortable. As others' have said, no worries about battery capacity at all.

    Energy Federal Credit Union

    I'll second mikeash's experience. I worked with Mary to get my membership and loan approval. Once the membership application was mailed in, the rest of the loan documents were electronic and e-signed. Start to finish took about a week from sending membership application to receiving check in the...

    Heated steering wheel. Am I going to get my hands on one?

    I had the subzero package on my order before the heated wheel was officially listed (order confirmed 12/12). I asked my DS today if I will get the heated wheel, now that it is listed on the package. Here is his response: "The heated steering wheel is a new update that WILL be included in your...

    Next-gen REAR seats no longer available for new orders, please post feedback on yours

    Does "if we are due" mean if you ordered the NG seats, or only if you already took delivery and have a due bill.

    SoCal owners: Moe Mistry Group Buy... Clear Bra, Tint and Nano.

    I stopped by Moe's shop last week to discuss a project to wrap my new MC Red P85D as soon as I take delivery (with any luck late Feb). Moe took plenty of time and patiently explained all the different options. What really sealed the deal though was a look at jstepy's project in progress. Moe...
