See post No. 2 above. In my browser (safari on a mac) I signed into my tesla account, clicked into the page for my car (2017 model S), then right clicked the image of my car and chose copy image address, then pasted that address into a text editor. I found a SC04 near the end of the list of...

Call where? I can't find a phone number anywhere. Edit: I found a number - 888-518-3752, but got dumped into a dead end phone line with a full mail box, and no way out. Edit numero dos: Screw it, I think I found the problem - I used apple pay to pay for the order, which has a different email...

I placed a reservation/order back in March, and have the email confirmation with a reservation number, but it's still not showing up in my tesla account. I understand most people have their reservation showing up in their accounts, or do I understand wrong? I realize that I have plenty of...

I can't believe it took them a year to fix this. Their inability/unwillingness to fix this, along with several other things, was part of the reason I sold my tesla and won't be buying a new one.

That's ridiculous ("ok boomer"). There are other ways of using the usb system. I always play albums, or "playlists" - basically mixtapes. It works great for that! And I use it all the time, almost 100% of the time I'm driving.

xACT is good, I also use XLD ( X Lossless Decoder: Lossless audio decoder for Mac OS X ) for this. Note that both of these aren't the most user friendly apps in the world - they're basically front ends for script loaders, but they get a lot of stuff done once you figure them out.

That is correct - it has been broken on all teslas since version 2020.44.10.1, which came out last November. I've gotten 18 software updates since then.

The various lists that my model 3 displays (albums, songs, genres, folders) has never shown album art thumbnails.

On my car it only re-catalogs the usb drive when I first insert it. It resumes without re-indexing over power cycles thereafter, until I pull it and shuffle things around on the drive again. Maybe that's a benefit of using ext4 for formatting? Or just a fast drive?

I'm still trying to figure out what AB is.

There is indeed a gps receiver.

How many? Where did you get this information? This is made up information. That one guy on tiktok doesn't count, he's nuts. The real answer is: no-one actually does this, except for a few weirdos and perhaps some folks with OCD.

Did you notice my retraction a few posts later?
