    Model S refresh rattles/creaks

    Just an update on my service appointment... and yeah, same fix that HX_Guy has, essentially. From the SC notes: Glad it's fixed. I still wish they had a "common squeaks reference" guide to not bother the SC.

    Model S refresh rattles/creaks

    I have my car scheduled to go into the SC in a few days, they want videos or any info on the rattles, I'm going to try to get some of that tomorrow. For me it's rear driver side creaking, plus an occasional sound that's almost more like suspension. If they had a do it yourself common creak and...

    Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 on Uberturbines- 265/35 & 275/35R21

    The week we took delivery we got a foot of snow around here and a lot of ice, we managed up and down hills, had a winter kit in the car, and never needed the chains (note: expensive chains for the 21's that's for sure). Slow and easy. I think for us we do a decent amount of winter sport -...

    2021 Plaid speaker specs?

    Agreed that it feels different than 3/Y! We have a '18 M3P and now a '22 MYP and the sound system feels louder... we're often in the 6-7 range in the '22 MSLR vs what felt like 4-ish on the 3/Y.

    4-5% discharges a day?

    Just as a data point... our new Model S has been at the tint/paint/PPF/etc. shop almost a week, it's only lost 2% SOC.

    Washington State: Model S Plaid/LR waiting room

    Similar here, took delivery last Thursday... 3: Same distortion, was wondering this! 5: We have some funky gaskets around the windshield wipers on the passenger side, not sure if similar or not.

    Washington State: Model S Plaid/LR waiting room

    Similar for us... I'm OK with the no-BS text to schedule and get delivery at home myself. I only received human-ish texts when they pulled our VIN or had to reschedule. Appreciate your approach, on the checklist, etc. I've had some of the same thoughts... buying past cars, I never looked...

    Washington State: Model S Plaid/LR waiting room

    Home delivery is super easy and straightforward. If you're comfortable with the product and how to use it, you'll be fine. We've taken home delivery of all 3 of ours and they were here about 5 minutes each time, usually calling an Uber/Lyft to zip back around the same time they drop the car. I...

    Compatible game controllers for 2022 MYLR

    Yes, this is confirmed. On the cars with only data on the glovebox they don't ship the game controller-only games. Somewhere else someone had a text message thread with a service center about this who offered lukewarm "maybe there will be a retrofit" or "maybe they will end up shipping the games".

    What are the chances of Matrix Led headlights to Model S in an order placed 1 days ago?

    Interesting... reading the current Model S owner's manual at Model S Owner's Manual | Tesla... Think this is for the overseas new deliveries? Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFS) If equipped, the Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFS) automatically adjusts the beam of the headlights to improve...

    Model Y Performance or Model S Plaid?

    Choose between a MYP and a MSLR, non-Plaid... save the $$$. We took delivery of both recently, replacing an '18 M3P, and both are zippy. The 2022 MYLR is faster than our M3P was and has the 'insane' acceleration instead of plaid, still plenty fine.
