    Which factors to consider when considering timing to buy tesla / in retrospect?

    S 60D Arrived with Perforated

    Is your VIN number between 40,000 to 42,500? I am trying to find out how Tesla handled transition from perforated to non-perforated seats. When I ordered MX-75 with 7-seater in mid Feb-2017, I had seen Perforated verbiage in the configuration page detail online, but when I received MX in...

    First Big FWD Issue, Help?!

    My MX has lots of issues with FWD. It has been in the shop for five within 100 days of ownership. FWD will not open consistently in variety of situations. The recent repair couple of days ago, on FWD with firmware upgrade has made things worse, as today morning one of the FWD got locked and...

    First Big FWD Issue, Help?!

    That sure is a long shot and kind of a ridiculous, if we have to keep perimeter area clean just to operate FWD. BTW, Tesla manual doesn't recommend doing so.

    Model X: Average Wh/mile Tracker

    I have noticed the big difference in wh/mile (even after discounting for 22" tires) between Model S and my Model X under the same driving conditions. I have not seen wh/mile average below 398 even driving very gently at 2600 miles so far. I wonder whether MX batteries are different than MS.

    Driver side Falcon wing door hinge snapping when opening

    My driver's side FWD makes a snapping sound when it is parked closed to another vehicle or if it senses an obstacle in its way of opening. It is strange that snapping sound is very low, if there is any, when opening in an open parking lot without any vehicle around it. I doubt if there are...

    Recent Model X build quality

    @NCEP: so what was that hissing noise? I do hear a noise like that coming under passenger side. It is heard for few minutes to hours even after vehicle is parked in the garage and/or during battery charging. It is very annoying.

    Dipped my car: Autoflex Matte + ZTA Hypershift + Blueberry Juice

    Has anyone done a plasti dip on OEM wheels? I have 22" Black Onyx, which has little shine on it and thinking about making it more shiny/glossy.
