Interested! P.M.'ed you.

I have experience with the Autel dual frequency programmable TPMS, they didn't work on my 2012 S. I ended up purchasing TPMS sensors from Tire Rack: https://www.tirerack.com/tpms/results.jsp?autoMake=Tesla&autoModel=Model+S&autoYear=2012&autoModClar=85 that are the Baolong equivalent of the...

Seldom post, however I saw your predicament. I too had a dirty headliner courtesy of Tesla. I took the car back and they cleaned the headliner of the greasy fingerprints. I asked the detailer what Tesla uses and he said Crazy Clean. Amazon.com : crazy clean Hope this helps.

Have you considered Pirelli Cinturato P7 All Season Plus tires. I now have over 4k miles on these tires and have seen an improvement of 2-3% (wH/mile) over the stock Goodyear tires they replaced. They have great reviews on Tire Rack, a great tread wear rating and are LLR. Admittedly, I...

Did a self install myself; some things to consider: You didn't mention the breaker rating and on the off chance the breaker is underrated please verify the breaker is a 50 amp breaker. There is a torque tightening specification for the breaker terminals to be tightened to; verify the terminals...

Here are my numbers from the spreadsheet I keep on my energy usage. My "at wall" energy usage is roughly 20% higher than the Odometer kWh readings. Some observations: My watt usage per mile has gone down over the time I have owned the car; driving in winter uses more engery, even here in...

From reading the above posts, it looks like there are several methods that have given good results. For me, I used Tide's Stain Eraser Amazon.com: Tide To Go Stain Eraser 16 Count: Health Personal Care to remove some finger print smudges on the A pillar fabric left by the window tint...

Not a scientific measurement, however I have driven by many portable radar speed display trailers and my car's speed always shows at least one mile higher on the display than what the speed sign shows. My other cars also show I am traveling faster than what the radar displays show, so it's...

Getting other manufacturers to help with the SC build out is all well and good, however my thinking is if Tesla could entice government entities to participate in installing SC's, doing so would accomplish two objectives: adoption of a fast charging standard and rapid expansion of the SC...

A workaround to consider: Set your timer so power is on when you typically plug your MS in and off at 6 a.m.; set the MS scheduled charging to begin between midnight and 6 a.m. Doing this always insures the car is being charged at the lowest rate. Also, using a little math, one can work out...

Been away from the forum, however do want to post our car has averaged 321 wh/mile over it's lifetime. Just hit 36,000miles. Now that spring is here I think the car will settle in at 320 wh/miles as I don't do as many "jack rabbit" as I did in the beginning and spring and summer the car...

I am not claiming this is the "best" jack; however it did meet most of my criteria for a portable jack that I can use on the road to make a tire change. I am using a military Humvee jack. The pros: The jack has a very wide base (good for stability), is rated at 3 1/2 tons (well over the...

I had a similar sound; turned out to be a cracked axle nut which was replaced under warranty.

I have Photo Sync 75 on my front windshield and get the halo effect only when wearing polaroid sunglasses (Jim Maui), otherwise no halo effect night or day. I had 3M Crystalline on my front windshield and switched to Photo Sync as the Crystalline gave the appearance of looking through a film...

Southern California weather this time of year makes everything you drive seem nicer. :wink:
