Thanks for update. I've also pulled my high beam fuse for now. But.... Low beams are so dim. LED bulbs are brighter for you? Drop in replacement?

What's to buy?

Following for an update

Hello all! I seem to have lost my passenger side rear brake pad and I need new rotors. I live near rainy Seattle and' Im looking forward to better initial breaking with new pads and rotors all around. I'm tempted by these rotors but they are expensive. Could they possibly be worth it...

Update?

How do you like these pads? What made you pick this one?

What was the resolution?

Who's doing your light replacements?

I believe I'm having the same issue with my 413 1.5 with 3.0 upgrade. It started with a warning about my low beams. My lights stay on all night long while charging and then turn off when charging turns off. Did you find a solution? Gary

I'm looking for an R80 badge. I'm looking for original back Tesla letters.

Hey cheetah, Sorry to hear that. Can you tell me what you know about your problem? Do you lights stay on while charging?

Hello,. I have a 2008 roadster with the battery upgrade. I can't get my headlights to turn off. I think I've tried everything. I've gone through the manuals. Headlight switch is in the off position, when i turn it to on i get a warning that my headlights are on. I turn it to off, the...

Hey i appreciate your responses. I didn't describe my problem very well. Now that I understand it a little better, i realize I need to characterize it further. The car seems to charge okay when I plug it in, however it stops charging after less than 10 minutes at 118 miles. The screen doesn't...

The headlights are on when I'm driving and when I'm charging all night long. The headlights turn off when the car is not on and not charging.

Did you ever pick anything? The joying 6.2" you were looking for in the prior thread isn't available anymore. Hoping to find something that fits nicer than the Sony XAV-AX7000. Any other recommendations?

Here's how's I did it.

My clunk went away again. It wasn't there before, it was there for a couple days, now it's gone again. Is your klunk also delayed by about a half a second after transitioning between acceleration and regenerative braking?

Hey Doug, I have a squeek from the drivers side rear. I hear it when I get in and out of the car as well as driving. Where to lubricate? Thank you. Gary

I may be experiencing the same noise. It's a delayed clunk, maybe 1/2 second after accelerating or decelerating. Sounds a little like a relay. I heard for the first time a few days ago however today I couldn't hear it at all. Hey Jason, I think you saying it's a normal sound? Should I check...

Thank you for the reply Henry. Your probably right. Fyi.. I have the newer mobile charger. When i have some time I'll troubleshoot further and let you know. Gary

I have this same error message. Looks like it got wet inside the Henry Sharpe adapter. Everything is dry now. I can charge with the wall adapter but i still get the error message with the rv to Henry sharp adapter. I have reset the earth leakage trip detect. How do you reset it? Since it's...

How does this head unit compare with the Alpine ILX-F307? I have the 1.5 roadster. Did you research speaker upgrades as well? Thank you for sharing dude! Gary

Are you saying the $300 joying radio is a better choice than the $1000 Alpine? Thank you for your help. Gary

Reviving the thread. This still looks to be the best frugal alternative to a single to double din dash conversion. Anyone else follow suit? Thank you. Gary

Thanks for sharing!

I hadn't driven my #413 for 10 days while I was on a trip, the car now has this same error message. Can I safely drive the car until it's fixed? Is there anything i can look at or do myself? Thank you. Gary

Texas? Half way isn't too bad. Thanks for replying!

Comparing my lotus Elise to my Tesla roadster.

I'd like to meet some fellow roadster owners. How close am i to you? Is there local meetups? Thanks guys! :) Gary

I was able to open the trunk. You can see what i did here. The cable hook had come off the latch. Thanks guys. Gary

Is this legit? Tesla Roadster 2008-2010 Service Manual Wiring diagrams Parts Catalog | Documents and Forms | Manuals

I find it hard to believe there's no service manuals for our car. Can someone confirm?

I'm having a similar issue here. Trunk problem, one side won't open, the other won't close.

This is an evolution of the trunk problem i was having here. Trunk wouldn't latch -solved (kind of) Now the driver side that wouldn't latch before now will not unlatch. I had been manually pulling the pin forward so it would latch however this time it pulled forward more than it had before...

Thanks very much!

Hey guys, I didn't see this posted. Not sure how to fix yet but I'm pretty happy i know how to reliably latch my trunk. ;) A permanen solution is to replace a spring or adjust a solunoid? Thanks. Gary

Hey guys, I didn't see this posted. I have a work around but a permanent solution is to replace a spring or adjust the solunoid? Thanks. Gary

That's never happened in my lotus. Good it's nothing to worry about. Thank you. Gary

But my That doesn't look good at all. :) Sorry for that but thanks for sharing. Is there an easy way to see if it was replaced on my vin? Is that connector accessible? Maybe I should make a dedicated post, let me know and I will. On my long drive home from California, a few different times...

I like the way you think, root cause. Is there a guide to verifying PEM fan connectors? Is it a latent fan failiure until it cascades? Thank you.

Proactive maintenance is replacing the components? Is there a guide someplace that allows me to check insulation and health of other items myself? Thank you for posting. Gary

What a guy. Thank you Elon! Maybe you've all seen this already but in case you haven't..... (Has a good amount of roadster footage.)

3.0 applicable?

Thank you Roadster! Good, that will fund a new soft top. The one that came with my car is in really unexpectedly bad shape. Gary

What does a Tesla hard top go for? I doubt I'll use mine.

I'm using my Elise soft top for now.

I am having the same problem. Stitching needs to be repaired and the interior foam is it deteriorating. What did it cost you to have your soft top repaired? I got a quote today for $600 to repair the stitching and replace the foam..
