    SOLVED: Homelink with Genie Intellicode remote

    With the long weekend coming up, I thought I would come back and try and make Homelink work so I can finally get rid of the old garage door opener. I appreciate the advice. Fingers crossed. If this doesn't work, I may have to get a new garage door opener so it will work with my car 🤣. My Dad...

    Any issues when using an old 40 amp home charger with a 2023 Model S ?

    My old Juicebox plugged into a dryer port that I used for years for a PHEV Ford Fusion and Honda Clarity before my 2021 Model S melted after about a year of charging my Model S. Well the connector to the Juicebox melted and the dryer plug melted. When I called out our regular electrician to...

    My 12 month review of owning my 2022 Model S Long Range

    I have a similar experience to you except my LR was delivered at the end of September so it's a 2021. I had a few minor issues at delivery but got all those fixed thanks to the inspection checklist (funny, I know I had some of the same issues with my Benz and Ford/ remember interior gaps but...

    Has anyone taken delivery of a new Model S and opted for the steering wheel?

    After complaining about the Yoke constantly (why reinvent the wheel) for the first few months after getting my car, I got used to it and don't notice it anymore. I miss the stalks (hit the wrong turn signal a lot still) and center horn (dangerously couldn't honk in time 3x and barely avoided...

    Big price drop - LR down $10k, Plaid down $21k

    LR is back down to $14k more than I paid in September 21 (but I ordered much earlier and is why I couldn't change my order to add the 21" wheels/ no matter how much I wanted them, it wasn't worth paying an extra $10k to get them). As someone else said, the prices are probably almost back to...

    Retrofit for Steam

    "Not advertised" is a neat argument when Tesla doesn't have a PR dept or any paid advertising and solely advertises via Musk, its sole advertiser in chief. I agree that Elon speak/ well Elon promises are a bit legendary at this point but there is one big distinction here in that Musk was...

    Steering Wheel / Yoke option

    I have a relatively early 2021 refresh but thought sometime after I got mine that Tesla moved the horn back to the center of the steering wheel (I mean yoke). Yoke you get used to. Horn is a much bigger thing. First three months I had the car, I (a) couldn't find the horn and barely avoided...

    Steam integration for Model S built after Feb 2022 only?

    I didn't think about that until you mentioned it. You're right: $2000 is way too much for a RAM upgrade. Hopefully we 2021 refresh owners didn't secretly lose the higher end (PS5) computer hardware to the same supply chain issue that (you know) cost us tilt screens, lights, etc.

    Steam integration for Model S built after Feb 2022 only?

    Well CRAP. I guess promoting and listing features and then having your CEO (advertiser/ promoter in chief since Tesla doesn't advertise) not only promote playing Witcher III and Cyberpunk but actually let people play these games during the launch event for the 2021 Refreshed Model S. Don't...

    Steam integration for Model S built after Feb 2022 only?

    Well us 2021 Model S Refresh early adopters (9/2021 delivery) are not worried for nothing especially with early reports from another thread quoting Tesla Service centers estimating the retrofit cost to customers at $2k. I don't think final word has come down but maybe it has. If so, it is...

    Steam integration for Model S built after Feb 2022 only?

    That's a really clever response since Tesla doesn't advertise period because Elon himself is the promoter/ advertiser in chief. Elon and Tesla has said enough about this that it doesn't matter. Remember, they announced that the new Model S will have advanced gaming and even did a joint...

    myQ WiFi Garage Opener - No Homelink

    I have MyQ and while it works most of the time, it does sometimes frustratingly not work and when this happens, often locks up requiring you to be at home/ go home and use the wired button or clicker. As long as you understand this, have a backup, and are willing to deal with the occasional...

    myQ WiFi Garage Opener - No Homelink

    I have Homelink which never worked (I have an old garage opener that for some reason has never been compatible with any of my Homelink optioned cars) and already use MyQ (mainly for the door sensor so I can check to see if I closed the door without driving back home). I agree that I can't see...

    Battery capacity loss question

    Thanks a lot! My refreshed 2021 Model S LR is a little over one year old and I noticed that my 90% charged range (my max charge) is a little over 20 miles lower than what it showed when I first got the car. I was worried about the 5% range drop over 9000 post-pandemic miles but it looks like...

    Weird buzzing sound after updating to 2022.24.6 [Fixed in 2022.36.1]

    + another one. 36.2 installed, woke the car up and no buzz/ whine. It's finally gone. I love OTA updates.
