    S60 -> S75 upgrade price reduction

    Interesting. I just happened to be looking earlier today and it was still 9k. Just checked now and it is indeed7k. I don't think I'd pay more than 3k to be honest

    8.0 Wifi issues?

    I have the exact same issue since. 8.0 It momentarily connects, then disconnects and will continue this cycle continuously. Works fine on Hotspot. I have tried the workarounds here where applicable, still no joy.

    Impressive video of Tesla safety features at work

    As I said I would yesterday, I stopped having a stupid semantic debate with you over the work "predicted" But now I see you have chosen to call half the members who have the audacity to differ with your opinion orons and ill informed" That type of self-righteous and hateful speech is not...

    Impressive video of Tesla safety features at work

    Not interested in getting into a semantic debate with someone who by your very own signature has issue recognizing reality. Let me assure you the Cubs ARE the World Champions, and the Tesla DID "foresee", "envisioned" or "predicted" a high potential for collision and took appropriate action.

    Impressive video of Tesla safety features at work

    Leave it to this forum to find away to take a great example of the car that presumably most of us own--or wish to own, doing something extremely impressive-that no other car on the road today can do, and by the fifth post turn it into a silly semantic debate over the word "predicted" Clearly...

    Improving Supercharger Availability $0.40 idle fee

    Here is what Musk initially said: And here is what he say's now: The latter seems much more reasoned.

    Improving Supercharger Availability $0.40 idle fee

    In escalating steps. First step after identifying the sub-set of users who repeatedly abuse the situation should be a warning. If after a warning they continue--then directly targeting those offenders, not "punish the whole class" for the bad behavior of the small minority. At least this way...

    Improving Supercharger Availability $0.40 idle fee

    I completely agree! I have only used a supercharger three times, never have more than half the stalls been in use. Twice, I sat in the car and waited, once I walked a half a mile or so to a Steak_and_Shake and the car sat idle for probably 15 minutes after fully charging. There was no one else...

    Verdict of 2016 Model S 60 Battery being top or bottom limited?

    I've had a 60D since late July, had originally ordered a 70D but the 60D came out during my one week grace period and i changed. My experience continues to be as i first reported: I charge to 100% ever time I charge. 1. No reduction in Regen when charged to 100% 2. Get nag screen every few...

    Refreshed Model S: constant buzzing noise?

    I absolutely notice the same thing on mine--which was delivered late July, however, I didn't noticed for the first couple of months--seems to have started in September sometime.

    Build 2.42.40 improves USB audio

    I am an audiophile and have a qsonix music system, when you rip CD's it rips in lossless WMA's.so it's (was) very simple for me to copy over to USB. In my opinion there is no point in using a USB stick unless saved in some lossless format, otherwise I would just stream from my iPhone or Spoitify.

    Build 2.42.40 improves USB audio

    Unfortunately no. 2.4240 was also my first 8.0 release and my entire library (9500 song) was in WMA and no longer worked. I could see every song but when I attempted to play any song I received "Loading error" and it would not play. I converted all to FLAC and now they play but 3/4 of my cover...

    Firmware 8.0

    I went straight from 7 to 8.0 2.42.40 soI guess I was "lucky" in that many of the USB issues have been fixed. However, after the update I cannot play any WMA files, just says "Loading Error" after I converted my entire library to FLAC it now plays correctly. However, 3/4 of my album art is...

    Some exciting observations about the new Model S60 (software limited 75 kWh)

    As an 60D owner for six weeks now I am surprised this is still being discussed. Multiple Tesla employees whose names I will not mention for obvious reasons, from both sales and service department have told me the exact same thing. Tesla's official word is "to just charge to what you need" they...

    Indiana Tesla owners and future owners

    I completely agree and have communicated that to Tesla--for what it is worth. Merrilville, is an ideal location for a SC as it serves traffic coming and leaving Chicago via Interstates 80, 94, and 65-- as well as being located directly on US 30--another busy highway. In the meantime "New...

    Some exciting observations about the new Model S60 (software limited 75 kWh)

    I have had my new 60D for five weeks. Three Supercharger visits and every time no appreciable reduction of charge rate as it reaches 100%. I have also asked two separate employees and "unofficially" they both confirm that the assumption that charging the software limited 60 to 100% is the same...

    Model S catches fire in France-8/2016

    Yeah, garages general do not like smoke detectors because rapid swings in temperature can cause condensation and dust too can cause false alarm issues. I have always had a hard wired heat detector in my garage. That is connected to my central alarm system. A heat detector is of course primarily...

    Is Auto-pilot harsh on brakes?

    You stated my question much better than I did. That's exactly what I am wondering. Is it waiting longer because that creates more regentative power, or is it just a limitation of the technology at this point and it using more friction braking.

    Autopilot slammed on breaks in middle of highway

    I was on a four lane divided road, it was not limiting me until it switched to 5 MPH.

    Is Auto-pilot harsh on brakes?

    Let me give the seemingly necessary preamble, that yes, I did search and did not find this exact thing discussed--though I'm confident someone will correct me. When slowing or stopping for traffic, AP waits longer to start braking than I would and then slows down more suddenly. Assuming others...

    Autopilot slammed on breaks in middle of highway

    I had a somewhat similar, yet different experience yesterday. I was on a four lane devided road with a speed limit of 45 MPH. I was crushing around 52MPH with auto-steer and TACC enabled. Suddenly the car began slowing down dramatically, I immediately took over and then noticed the dash...

    Denied by Alliant

    I couldn't agree more, Jason ([email protected]) was always very responsive and efficient. I finalized things with him last Monday, by Monday evening Tesla had received the wire and the car was delivered to my home last Wednesday. Like many I got 72 months at 1.49%.

    Some exciting observations about the new Model S60 (software limited 75 kWh)

    I received my new Model S 60D last Wednesday--and I love it. When I ask a highly trusted Tesla employee (I will keep it generic) he told me that the official Tesla answer is not the same as the factual answer. The factual answer is yes you can charge to 100% daily as you are in fact only...

    Battery Went From 140 to Zero While Sitting for an Hour

    That's too bad about the failure, hopefully Tesla impresses you with how they handle the situation. I am new to the Forum, and haven't even taken delivery yet--that happens tomorrow---but I too regret that some members, rather than answer your question or even ignore it all together, find it...

    At 45, I should be better than this!

    I am doing the exact same thing--and every time I think of Neuromancer's quote "I am conducting what is effectively a manual DDOS attack on the MyTesla page" and a week after I first read it still makes me laugh. Perfect description of my actions.

    Okay, I have to ask. How did you have not one but two cars explode???

    I challenge you to say this sound is normal.

    So if it is "Normal" he should of been able to walk you over to any other Tesla at the SC and reproduce? Did he do that?
