    Could Tesla make Regen stronger on pre-raven cars?

    I'll just add, I hate using brakes in a normal ICE car now. It feels so primitive! :p
  2. Zishan

    If you had to go back to ICE, what would you choose?

    I'd probably get a GTR..... didn't see that mentioned yet. Reason, speed and handling, and back seats, for my 2 boys! They are still young, so even though the back seats are tiny, it would work for them. Maybe a Porsche Panny or the BMW X5m suv, or whatever it's called. I like that it's...

    Model S unlimited supercharging

    You can search and read up on the topic, it's been discussed on TMC in a ton of threads. This is one of the many reasons it's been removed/altered on some, restricted to owners and non-transferable on others, etc. etc. Good luck,

    Annoying to Full Press Break to Avoid Rolling?

    I can make mine hold at a stop fairly easily. All I do is press the brake slightly until the "hold" symbol appears on the dash, then I can let go and rest my foot where I please. Is the issue the angle/slope is so great that the car won't hold, unless you press much harder? Mine is a...

    Thoughts on Pricing? 2019 SR+

    I've been casually browsing as my wife wants a model 3. I see them selling all day every day on Tesla for $38k, with less <1 k miles. They also say Autopilot included, but I don't understand all the nuances to it..... I can't keep up with Tesla's changes. You benefit from having the white...

    Model Y vs. Mustang GTE

    Personally, I had always wished Ford would have come out with a Mustang sedan, gran coupe style. Something low, wide, and sleek....with 4 doors. That would be something interesting...IMHO. But as America has shown, people are gravitating towards SUV's hence everyone moving towards those...

    Smart air suspension vs regular on buying used S?

    I have SAS and had a loaners without/on coils and it drove fine. I actually kinda liked it. Felt more connected to the road. It's going to really about personal preference. I have 4yr/50k warranty, so I'm not too concerned about issues. I do like the fact the SAS can lift the car and I...

    lowering links, but cheap?

    Oops, freudian slip.....bear, not "bare" :D Can you confirm, there's no weight or load applied to these? I need to get into 3d printing! Looks like fun...

    Aftermarket sunroof for S

    Personally, I wouldn't hack up my Tesla, but it's your car. I think it would also affect resale value. I'd be hesitant to buy one that's had it's aluminum roof cut up.

    lowering links, but cheap?

    I was wondering the same....saw them for as low as $80 bucks before. Honestly, I read these bare no load, so not a real danger using them. I even read people 3D print lowering links?

    Model S Roof Rack : Get ready for Ski Season!

    I'll call next in line if Adam backs out. I'll pay the $250 plus shipping. Just let me know....Thanks

    Good deal on used P85D?

    Warranty isn't determined solely by the mileage, it's also takes the age of the car into consideration. So a 2015 w/30k miles maybe have 4yr/50k warranty and another 2015 w/30k miles may have 2yr/100k (total) warranty. Depending on manufacturing date or sales date....something like that...

    3rd party install RFS (Rear Facing Seats)

    There is a video on YouTube of RichRebuilds that shows what's needed. It doesn't look very hard at all. I think you can buy the parts thru a bodyshop, have them order from Tesla. I don't think they will sell direct, but you can always try your local service center first. Maybe the bodyshop...

    Yes, I "saw" the exact same thing. Meaning the same dotted lines on my gauge cluster. Just saying.. :-)

    Yellow dashed line leads to bricking

    I saw the exact same thing Monday morning. I thought maybe due to the low temps, got a little chilly here. Drove for a few minutes and then finally noticed car was in Valet mode. I was playing around with the app the night before. Had to park and then disable Valet from my app, might be...

    Good deal on used P85D?

    The Performance Models mostly have the same suspension as the non-performance models. It's only the P85+ models and a select range of P85D's. From when I was shopping, I'd say maybe 1 or 2 out of 10 had the plus suspension (from what I could tell). And that only applies to P85D's...

    Performance of 2016 90D verses P85D verses P90D

    I was in your same situation not too long ago. I splurged and got the best of both worlds (for my situation), a 2016.5 P90DL, which also has the refreshed front end, etc. I justified it because I was saving on fuel cost, getting a newer car, and it also has warranty. And, bye bye misc...

    My Model S 85D Story. Ordering to Delivery!

    ******FIXED******* The drive back was amazing! Loved it. I ended up doing the 2,000 mile drive back by myself just short of 48 hours total. I wish I could say it was uneventful, but encountered some animals, a sand storm, and encountered a few tornados. One seemed to be, like 50 yards away...

    My Model S 85D Story. Ordering to Delivery!

    I'm enduring the process now. Bought mine from Fremont, paid Tesla for the car, CA sales tax, etc. Drove back to TX. They had me go do the TX state inspection ($7.00 btw) and send it to them. They are handing the entire process, so I presume they are going to title it in TX for me and I'll...

    V10 on MCU1

    Interesting, my has been rock steady as well, except for once, it completely went in one direction when losing sight of the lines. But the other day while using AP, it's been slowly moving around within the lane. Hmm... Well, look forward to the V10 (fixed version). :-)

    Good deal on used P85D?

    I hear ya, I used to daily drive an NSX (firm coilovers/upsized wheels) as well as a C6Z06 (also lowered/upsized wheels). So I'm a bit sensitive/attentive to suspension feel. As I'm aging, I'm swaying away from the firmer settings, but don't want to feel like I'm driving a boat either. I'm on...

    Good deal on used P85D?

    sorka, I take it you don't like the +plus suspension? Or unfortunately they stopped in March and no longer offer it? I hear a lot of people praise it, but some considered it too firm. I have never ridden/driven one, so no experience here. Personally, I have the SAS and had a coil...

    V10 on MCU1

    I got an update last week one morning, but snoozed/dismissed it as I was on my way to work. When I got back home, i connected to wifi and went to do the update, but it's no longer showing?! I did a reset by pressing the brake pedal and the 2 steering wheel buttons, but nothing shows now...

    Good deal on used P85D?

    You know, less than a year ago I posted something similar and got a few Thumbs down for inquiring. I won't do that to you, valid question, and my opinion, if that is the color combo you want, the price sounds good to me. Mileage is incredibly low as well. What other options does it have...

    Does locking the car lock the glovebox?

    Try locking your car with the passenger window down. Then reach in and try opening the glove box. Report back. ;)

    This looks like it's priced well, depending on mileage. You might want to add that. :-) I'd love something like this for my wife, just not ready just yet... Good luck,

    new wheels (teaser)

    colindo1990, Nice wheels! Have you noticed any adverse effect to your performance and/or range? I know typically larger wheels affect both, but looks like the weight savings on your wheels might counter that. Just curious what your experience has been thus far...

    WTB: Broken KEY FOB.....my son is driving me crazy

    Thank you everyone, for the posts and private messages. Finally got around to my service appointment and forgot to ask during drop-off. Once my car was completed and I was picking it up, I asked them if they happened to have a broken key, something that they had no use for.....for my son...

    Are Slightly Larger Tires an Option?

    So if you don't mind, what's the largest and widest details? Curious what size rims, I.E. 20x10.5 and what tires sizes, I.E. 295/30/20's?

    Am I making a bad choice?

    This is an overall observation and doesn't always apply to everyone's situation. If you are happy with your car, I'd keep it. Btw, mine's very similar, refreshed front, midnight silver, and rear facing seats!

    A/C issue, Tesla says there is no issue.

    UPDATE: Tesla Service Center confirmed, it's the actuator. "our diagnostic technician found that the HVAC intake actuator is not operating properly, closing off the air flow when it shouldn't. To replace it, the total cost would be $842.85. Would you like us to proceed with that?" Now all I...

    WTB used rear liftgate screen shade

    I got mine and installed it with no problems, and I didn't use the clips they provided (I couldn't figure out how to install them). I paid the $45-46, so with 50% off, that's a great deal, IMHO.

    A/C issue, Tesla says there is no issue.

    No, no need to apologize. Yes, it's strange, not directly related, but related to fan speed. And yes, loud, and I've owned loud cars. Full exhaust NSX, 600hp cammed Z06, an AMG with an exhaust leak, etc. I'm used to loud. The a/c, something was definitely wrong. I don't think I tried...

    A/C issue, Tesla says there is no issue.

    Yes and no, you can tell in the video, when I adjust the fan speed, the sound isn't directly related, but does seem to eventually slow down as I turn the fan down and vice versa. It definitely sounds like it's coming from the dash. Thoughts? It's still at Tesla, I asked my contact to please...

    A/C issue, Tesla says there is no issue.

    Thanks all, I have forwarded the Tesla SC the advice and asked them nicely to please check. I hope they check the actuator/actuators. I jokingly added, if not, I don't mind holding onto the loaner as long as possible, as I love it's a/c. I hope they understand and can get to the root cause.
  44. Zishan

    A/C issue, Tesla says there is no issue.

    I've heard the a/c can get noisy. But this was pretty substantial. I mean, I could barely hear my wife and vise versa, she was getting really annoyed at the sound. It's definitely outside of any realm of acceptable. I mean, I couldn't think. I had to blast the music to drown it out, and I...

    A/C issue, Tesla says there is no issue.

    Yes, will keep pushing them to resolve. Honestly, the service center has been amazing, just can't figure this out. Makes sense, you'd think they'd check these things....I will ask them to ensure the air channel is clear of debris. I really thought when the noise stopped, something...

    A/C issue, Tesla says there is no issue.

    Hello All, SHORT VERSION: A/c not blowing/pushing enough air. Compared to the loaner Tesla gave me, it’s vastly off. Tesla said my car’s ok. LONG VERSION: I purchased a used Model S, P90DL, from Tesla Fremont about a month ago. As soon as I left their lot, the a/c started making this...

    New owner

    FYI, I bought a facelifted P90DL recently. I love the car. It's at Tesla getting some minor things done and they gave me a 70D as a loaner, nosecone. The car is equally beautiful(minus the 21's, which I prefer aesthetically), has most of the options I have, so from my driving perspective...

    Lug nut covers for 21 inch turbines?

    Are the front lugs nuts more pronounced than the rears? Those lug nuts appear to stick out a hair. I imagine the rears sit inward a bit more than the fronts?
