No -- this message occurred after they replaced the cameras. UPDATE: Tech indicated that they were going to look into it. The next thing I see is a new service booking for "Additional parts on order from previous service visit" Tech never replied indicating what he figured out, but I'll...

Agreed -- looking at dashcam footage before and after the upgrade -- the quality all looks the same. Rear camera nice and bright, all the other ones lack color depth. Doh -- I'm asking them to confirm part numbers - I was hoping those were the parts being removed, not the parts they were...

So i just got the email that my 2017 Model S P100D (still on 2022.20.9 after service, it wasn't upgraded - also with upgraded MMC, HW3 and ECU) was eligible for the free camera upgrade. I booked it into service using the steps provided in the email on the Tesla App. It glitched and instead of...

Interesting. Well I got a quote from the rep with and without the touchpad replacement. I hope you're right and I can save a few hundred on the new screen. Do you have any proof that this is the case? I heard this as a rumor, just looking to call them out on it, if it's just a cash grab.

Why -- the car has never had this problem with power savings on in the past. I agree it's probably a work around, but trying to be environmentally friendly.

I have a 2017 MS P100D. It's not from P to D that's the issue. It's the waking the car up from a sleep. The door handles present themselves, driver opens door, you sit down. The main screen is black. Wait.. wait.. wait.. logo turns on.. wait.. then the screen comes on like normal. Lately...

What's the benefit to replacing the touchscreen? Is it a different model? Will it still yellow? Are there any functional differences? Just got a quote of $3510 plus tax with screen and $3160 plus tax without the screen replacement. (Canadian Dollars) Just posting for information purposes...

Corrected -- 2020 -- Whoops!

I've got a 2017 MS P100D with an HW2.0 to HW3.0 upgrade scheduled for Aug 7, 2020. I'm curious if the new HW3.0 with MCU 1 has any differences between MCU1 vs MCU 2. I'm trying to figure out if I should upgrade to MCU2 as well. My questions are -- can anyone answer the following: - FM will be...

Hi All -- I'm a new P100D MS owner, and looking to get some summer tires. I've read a bunch of different comments on the various options in tires, but not much regarding 0-60 based on rim size and weight. I've seen posts of 0-60 @ 2.42 seconds on OEM arachnids and ADV.1 rims, so I know this...

On another note -- I once bought a BMW X5 from the US. Pictures were awesome. Two years later the clear coat started to peel on the drivers door. I found out that it was poorly repainted, and that this was not a BMW issue. They pointed out the factory orange peel look of the paint vs. the...

I had the same thing happen to my MS. Basically four options: 1. $ - use the touch up paint and fix it your self. It's the worst option and but doesn't look too bad. 2. $ - get a detailer to mix some custom paint and fix it. (this is what I did) 3. $$ - Blend the paint - It's an option...

How can you schedule pre-heating your car? I leave at 8am every day. I've only owned the car for two days. I don't have the sub zero package. I will charge at work so thought I'd mention that.

Hi All -- I'm trying to find the right Tesla for myself and I've made an interesting observation. Up here in Canada, the Tesla authorized loaner/demo cars here are all speed limited to a max of 140 kmph or there about. Here's the TL;DR version -- Is a dealer demo as fast as the same model...
