I experienced a very weird reset on Saturday while driving on an interstate at 70 mph on autopilot. Was listening to a (downloaded) podcast and for about 30 seconds the podcast got very spotty with static and random speakers shut off and then back on. I then lost all control of all non-driving...

See this thread. It’s annoyed me for years. Creep Mode.. drifting backwards...a third option needed? I wish they would implement the following: When in drive (“D”), if the car shifts from forward movement to slow backward movement, the car should immediately go into hold and alert the driver.

I had an X 75D for two years. Last month I upgraded to an X 100D. My X 75D got about 70% of the rated miles on average. It was quite annoying. Even though it was rated for 237 miles I could not take it from Seattle to Portland without charging at least once (180 miles). So far my X100 D...

As an almost 2 year model X 75 owner who is about to upgrade to the 100, you are not going to be happy with a 75 for that long of a commute. The model X has a higher coefficient of wind friction than the S. Highway speeds really impact range. If it’s less than 55° out and you’re going 70MPH...

Attached is my report. ~22 months of data for my 75 X. 20k miles. The slope at ~15 months in is consistent with me thinking “oh, this latest update is more aggressive with long term battery protection and that’s why Tesla is decreasing my capacity”. It does also coincide with winter but 1) my...

Go on Amazon and buy an electrical usage monitor. The ones that poll every second or in “real-time” are the best. In theory, 200 amp service will give up to 48 kW of power at any given time (200*240 or 200*120+200*120). I have a 14-50 for my MX (8.4kw max), an electric drier, a hot tub with a...

It sometimes has the lanes. In my picture above it should have had the lanes but didn’t. There were other times that it did. My picture three posts above was taken on a ~1 mile interchange that itself has entrances and exits. That might’ve been why the lanes were not showing up, but every...

I got the nav update this morning. I think the new directions display has quite a bit of room for improvement. My route to work is straightforward so I can't speak to any improvements concerning routing. In the attached pic you'll see the Tesla display vs real life. Sorry for the blurriness...

I did nothing to it. Not even a car wash. And we're talking real rain....not mist...enough water on the windshield to not even be considered drops anymore...all just a sheet of water. I've used rain-x before and noticed the difference in rain-sensing wiper behavior. This is different. Only...

I also have an AP1 car (MX). Until very recently, the auto-wiper functionality was fine (not amazing, but above the level of "good enough"). These past two weeks the rain sensing function has been atrocious....well below the performance I've experienced in the past 1+ years of having the car...

As a Modex X owner I agree the GUI leaves a bit to be desired. Basic things like ordering the presets on the FM radio or automatically switching to streaming from FM when you go “up” past the last channel but going to another source when you go “down” (if I’m on FM I want to stay on FM!). Or...

Got mine yesterday. THANK YOU! Great build quality and fits great. If you look at my past posts I'm not the most optimistic person in the world so consider this a job well done. :) Thanks Norm.

What really pisses me off is the depreciation schedule they use to calculate the ST3 tax. AND the tax is supposed to be based off the MSRP of the car, but when I bought my X I don't think they had an MSRP, so they based it off the actual purchase price which includes options (which is 17% more...

While the equalizer settings reset issue seems to be fixed....my Dolby Surround now reverts to unchecked several times per day. This seems to be a new bug. :( Anyone else with premium sound having this problem?

I had the exact same issue. Happened after I went to Costco so had to have the SC get my groceries out. :( The earliest appointment they had to fix was two WEEKS out. Got it fixed and works fine now.
