    Replacing cabin air filter and cleaning evaporator fins in 2021-2022 MS

    Hi, Posted about this over last few years. In general, what I can't figure out is why Tesla can not modify the firmware to force drying of the filters after parking. Same issue on our 2018 Model 3 and now our 2021 Model S Refresh. In 2018, they promised a programming change to force the damper...

    trunk closes but wont latch that extra latch so car says trunk open

    Same Trunk Latch not working situation happened February 2023 at 18k miles on 2021 Model S Refresh. Adding comments for DIY's. My wife was about 1 hour away from home, I took an Uber, hanger, and some other tools to try and temporarily fix it. Texted Service to try and troubleshoot, did all of...

    Jacket Hanger?

    Sharing this advice to CONSIDER NOT asking Tesla to replace this coat hook if the thin rubber coating breaks and it does not look so good. After almost 2 hours of removing ALL of the Trim to the back of the car and the pillar trim on each side of the rear door, they have to use a crow bar to...

    Replacing cabin air filter and cleaning evaporator fins in 2021-2022 MS

    So here we are on June 29, 2023 and Mobile Service is replacing the Cabin Filter, again for the foul smell, that came back as soon as we started to use AC (humidity in NC came later this year). It really is unbelievable that Tesla is not able to force the fan to run with external damper open to...

    trunk closes but wont latch that extra latch so car says trunk open

    Rear latch closes but won’t cinch down. Closes under power and latch aligned, but motor does not run to pull down against seal. Called Tesla and they insisted on sending a flatbed tow due to safety. I had already crawled in the trunk and put wire to hold it down, but they wanted to bring it to...

    Replacing cabin air filter and cleaning evaporator fins in 2021-2022 MS

    2021 Model S LR Refresh - Foul Smell in Cabin Hi, Has anyone had any success with Tesla Service to cover the cost of replacing the Cabin Filter due to the foul smell? Service said it was 1 year (delivered 8/30/21) and filter should be replaced. But manual says every 3 years. I decided not to...

    NC QuickPass (EZ Pass) Transponder Mounting on 2021 Model S (Delivered August 2021)

    I want to install the NC QuickPass HOV Transponder (must be mounted on the front windshield to physically slide the HOV Switch for Toll Saving) on my windshield. I have seen several issues where it does not work. Does anyone have experience with 2021 Model S (Delivered August 2021, with, I...

    Mobile connector over heat?

    Thanks. This makes sense, the Leviton is 1" deep, the Hubbell is 1.8" deep.

    Mobile connector over heat?

    Recently had the same issue of charging amperage dropping to 16A, with the 'T' on the Mobile Connector flashing 4 times. (See attached PDF for what the diagnostic codes on the body mean) I have a 2021 Model S LR. I will give the details below, but one piece of data that was eventually shared...

    Thanks for the info. Can you send the center hub that you used to get a close match? I assume you like the combination?

    Vendor Refreshed Model S - some accessories we made, will continuously update

    Has anyone found aftermarket Center Hub and Lug nut Covers for the 2021 Model S with 19" wheels? Wanting to take Aero Covers off except for long trips. The wheels look great without the Aero Covers. All of the kits I have found so far do not have lug nut covers that are long enough to cover the...

    Prescription Eyeglasses best Lenses for Model S Screen

    Thanks, great information, very helpful that the Varilux 'X' series is working for you. I currently use Magnetic Clip-On polarizing lens on my regular progressives, but they don't have transition lenses. Good suggestion to consider continuing this option and get the Transition Lens with Clip-On...

    Prescription Eyeglasses best Lenses for Model S Screen

    @DerbyDave . Thanks for the first hand experience. I have had progressives for years and the ophthalmologist recommended Varilux ‘X’ series, do know if you have X or Comfort? He said he was not sure about the edges of the progressives and the touch screen in a similar view. Thanks also for...
