    Model S: New or CPO (long)

    The car will only draw the amount of current that it supports. No need to manually change anything.

    P90D Battery Pack

    Would they allow you to do the Ludicrous upgrade if you wanted to?

    P90D Battery Pack

    Well surprisingly, I got a call yesterday that the battery pack, new drive unit, and new rear tires were installed and ready to go. I asked about the battery pack that was installed when I got there. It turns out, they installed a loaner battery and sent mine in for re-manufacture. They said...

    P90D Battery Pack

    My 2014 P85D is in the shop now to get a new battery pack and drive unit installed. Any idea if it will be a 90kW pack? That would be amazing. They said it was being shipped from Washington and would be here tomorrow or Wednesday. The drive unit will be in Thursday or Friday.

    Car died today. Gear indicators turned red.

    Well it happened again last night. First time driving it since stalled the night before. Didn't even get off my street and the car stalled and all the gear indicator letters went red. It took a few seconds longer before it would go back into gear and drive this time, but I took it back home...

    Car died today. Gear indicators turned red.

    I just called the service center and they said that was all most likely tied to the battery pack failure, because the car was doing a HVIL (Hi Voltage Interlock Loop) check between the HV battery, battery heater, DU, etc, and found a problem and shut down. Since it started right back up and...

    Car died today. Gear indicators turned red.

    I got the red PRND today a block from my house. Pulled off to the side of the road, put it in park and back into drive and drove home without issue. I've been getting the "car needs service. May not restart" intermittently for the past week. Today I got a message when I got in at home that...

    Winter tires + wheels - tips, guidance?

    I haven't heard or seen anything since I placed the order online. Meanwhile, immediately after I ordered the tire bags two days ago, I got an order confirmation email that said I would get another email when the bags ship.

    Winter tires + wheels - tips, guidance?

    I just dropped the $2500 yesterday for my wife's RWD MS since it's her daily driver. I'm just leaving the factory set on my AWD MS cause the $2500 hurts bad enough. Maybe I'll get another set next year for my car. I still have a 4WD Explorer to drive in the winter to get to work. I did my...

    Time for repairs have made Tesla a laughing stock in my family

    Both mine and my wife's MS have a slight shudder under hard acceleration at highway speeds. I assumed it was normal.

    Any members a 2 Model S Household?

    We have 2 MS The lease on my wife's 2014 Lincoln MKZ ended in July. We got her a CPO 2013 P85+ I liked it so much, I sold my 2016 Mustang GT convertible to buy a CPO 2014 P85D. I work at Ford, so I choose to drive an ICE car to work daily, rather than risk my precious Tesla being vandalized in...

    Battery died with 10 km Typical Range left?

    There is something to this...maybe run it down low also. When mine died, it said 100% was 305 miles on a P85D...about 15 miles higher than I expected. After it died, 100% is now closer to 290 miles. I think the battery lost it's charge reference point sometime before it died.
