    Problems adding new 72A charger to existing order

    Same issue here. I can hardly believe that it should not be possible to either have it replaced later (e.g. as spare part or even SW upgrade) or - to allow customers to pay the $500 for the change but not imposing the full increase on the new price. Which in Europe is much higher than just the...

    Is Tapatalk not going to be supported with the new forum?

    Are there any plans for suporting Tapatalk any time soon? As mostly I'm on the train when browsing through various forums, I miss TMC quite a bit. The only client which works fine on mobile and iPad for now is Tapatalk.

    Model S Refresh post March 31, 2016?

    Fully understand that if someone is living in a place where streets usually go straight, mostly even highways, adaptive headlights may not be a top priority at all. Depending on where you live, I'd see two issues re MS headlights 1) In Europe, MS gets delivered with 25W Xenon bulbs only (vs...

    Facelift and potential impact on trade in value

    Many current and potential owners of a MS are expecting a refresh. Presumably only a minor facelift and leveraging some of the MX engineering effort as well as the long awaited LED headlights which hopefully will solve the issue around the poor and rather basic 25W Xenon headlight version in...

    [Rumor] Tesla Model S Facelift in 2016 !

    Are we talking about MX which we know has LED already or about the black moul of which pictures were shared a year ago? I'm really curious as I'm right now sitting on the fence and need to decide if I should wait another couple of month before my MS should go in production or if should...

    [Rumor] Tesla Model S Facelift in 2016 !

    I'd assume that TMC is frequently monitored bymembers from Tesla itself. What wonders me is, that no matter how many peoplespeculating and waiting for such a change to happen, there is absolutely nocomment. Also not a denial.

    Release Cycles & Potential Refresh?

    I guess that if there would be facelift, that’ssomething Tesla would want to celebrate as an event. How have such updates beenannounced in the past? Was there a date communicated when a presentation willbe held (e.g. 2 weeks in advance) so that press and other people could plantheir trips...

    How can I create a graph with bars and lines for graphical representation of data?

    Sounds quite sophisticated. Quick solution might be this one Since "with" and "overlap" applies to all bars in chart. Therefore I created 4 bars for the year (shown in blue) and for each quarter one bar (red in the example). Another solution might be to create an area chart combined with...

    [Rumor] Tesla Model S Facelift in 2016 !

    Agree, my guess also would be that rather smaller changes will be seen over time. Other question would be more about the timing and the publicity and media attention that goes with it. Assuming that Model 3 gets revealed in March, than either you would see something Jan/Feb or May and onwards...

    Tesla's Autopilot - an in depth at the technology

    As far as I understand, the camera is the main source. I therefore wonder how this is impacted by the reduced sight at night or fog. For instance pedestrians at night sometimes hardly stand out the dark.
