    2018 Tesla Model S - Premium vs. Textile differences?

    Premium interior has a better sound system, heated steering wheel, wipers, and back seats, and the hepa air filter. No changes to the headliner or dash, lighting is the same as far as I know. Keep in mind that the "textile" seats still have a lot of leather on them.

    Cost to upgrade to FSD from EAP still the same?

    When Elon announced the price increase he said that upgrades will also increase by $2k.

    Non-Tesla recommendations for 2nd cheaper EV

    The VW e-golf is a good car if you don't need more than 125mi of range.

    Tesla removes regenerative braking strength option

    Any time you use the regular brakes instead of regen is bad for range.

    Full self driving versus enhanced autopilot

    I upgraded from EAP to FSD. A week ago I would've told you only to get it if you believe that FSD will happen. But after seeing what FSD beta is capable of, I think it's well worth it. (You won't get FSD beta now but its implications for the future are amazing).

    Tesla removes regenerative braking strength option

    Maybe so they can advertise higher range numbers?

    Battery Breather Valves

    When you make a service appointment in the app, it always first assumes that it will be done as mobile service with the address you provide. If they read the description of your problem and determine that it must be done at the SC then they will update the appointment.

    Turn Display text RED at night

    I doubt this will ever be a thing but you never know, maybe try tweeting Elon ;). You can manually turn down the brightness of the display if it's too bright for you.

    "Refresh" Headlights, separate and repair DRL?

    All on the same car. Both original headlights failed and then one of the replacements.

    Lowest Wh/mi challenge

    I know this doesn't count since it's just for the past 10 km, but I think it's the lowest I've ever had. -37 Wh/km is -59.5 Wh/mi. It was also in freezing temperatures (easily below 0F). Pretty cool how the car didn't consume any energy at all in the last 5 km, and instead generated over half a...

    Lane Changes Not Working Consistently

    In order for the lane change to work, the cameras have to recognize both lane lines of the lane you want to change into. It's possible that sometimes when you tried to make a lane change the other line was faded or wasn't picked up by the camera for some other reason. You can easily tell if the...

    Navigation Bug

    I've had this ongoing issue with the map display for about 2 years. There are these squares that randomly appear, some are black and some are from another part of the map that doesn't belong. It's a weird bug and I figured it would eventually be fixed in a software update but it never was. Of...

    NoA blinker confusion during entrance ramp / on-ramp

    When using NOA, the car is meant to merge onto the highway on its own without you having to put the turn signal on. Just as it does for exits, the car will automatically signal and merge. This has worked for me on some occasions, but sometimes fails if the on ramp is too short. By manually...

    Tesla APP on iPhone won’t connect to vehicle

    Always worth a shot to reboot the car's computer. Hold down both scroll wheels on the steering wheel until the screens goes black. It will restart on its own. If that doesn't work, restart your phone or redownload the app.
