Well yeah... but the car was not realistically drivable with a dead console. And they didn't provide a time-frame for availability of the parts - and they didn't mention a "sometime in the future" option. Can someone advise what the appeal procedure would be? -Thanks, -Steve

My failure was progressive, and had all the symptoms of the emmc failure (in fact, I think the tech mentioned it, but can't say for sure). But the only solution offered, due apparently to lack of the needed parts at the time, was complete replacement - and the only complete replacement...

I apologize in advance for asking rather than reading 91 pages of forum entries - but here goes: In October, 2020 by console died - black screen, unbootable, no radio, no heat, etc. I scheduled an appointment and brought the car in to the Palo alto service center. They diagnosed the problem...

110V charging is pretty impractical. If you (or a friend) have modest electrical skills and a fairly conveniently located electrical panel you can add a perfectly functional 40A 240V charging circuit for under $25 - that's about $10 each for a 50A breaker and NEMA 14-50 outlet, plus $5 for a...

As far as I can see, nobody else has brought this up... so perhaps I'm the only person with aging eyesight. I'm pretty much OK with everything which has been included in the current updates, and I'm enjoying the heck out of AP. But couldn't the digital time be a bit bigger? I like to glance over...

Adding my voice to the thundering crowd... Thanks for the wonderful app. I just upgraded to a P85D, and lost Visual Tesla (can no longer log in). I'm very much looking forward to a windows build of the alpha, beta, or whatever version of your latest, since anything will be better than the...

Thanks for the comment. I can't figure the taste of the buying public - to my eye the brown is perfect. I was able to order the P85D in brown, before they dropped the color, and it's now in my garage. A P85D in brown will brown will be indeed rare. I like the red, but a red P85D would...

Thanks - there was a lot of interest; I probably would have sold it within a day if I hadn't gone on vacation. Price was not low, just fair (after all, I got the $10K rebate and drove the car 26K miles). The buyer seems very happy. My P85D came with the old style seats ( a temporary problem, I...

I got mine yesterday.. and had almost exactly the same results. It appears that you can manage 300 wh/m, but only with much more care than previously (I had an S85). I'm showing at least 25% more power consumption for similar driving conditions. That, combined with the old-style seats make me...

Oh well, thanks. I'll check on the parcel shelf - if it's included with the P85D, then I'll certainly include it with my S85 sale. -Steve

1960. Thanks for noticing! My first car was a sprite... a long time ago. - - - Updated - - - More pictures tomorrow. Too much rain right now... and anyway, it's night! - - - Updated - - - Thanks. There's not really much of a good reason to get the P85D, since I'll probably only get to use...
