I'm really hoping to hear like it sounds like several others are, not so much as there is better 0 - 60 times, but that there is more oomph at highway passing speeds.

Re: XPEL Talk about timely. Just as I was talking about the quarries and all the rocks on San Antonio's roads, my hood appears to have taken two hits from rocks that pierced the film, and definitely would have done some serious gouging to paint. It did it's job. Thanks for a great product!

I have a 12/14 delivered P85D. I have always heard a slight whine with light acceleration which is louder with heave acceleration. I did notice that if I turn off range mode after reading the above, there is still a audible noise but a lot of the high pitch part of the whine is markedly...

I had my car detailed locally and had the full Xpel wrap, Spectra Photosync and CQuartz installed. Just found out that the installer made a video of it. I am really pleased with the result. Can't tell you how glad I am to have the Xpel wrap here in San Antonio with all the rock quarries in...

I have almost a year in mine with the pano. I have had issues with it creaking, which they are 100% working to resolve, even so I would definitely order it with it again. I love the extra headroom, I like the slights ambient light, it makes the car feel more open, I do not feel heat in...

Thats really interesting. Thanks.

I understand the herd learning thing being unique. I was surprised about it seeming that Autopilot was just an off the shelf package from a vendor which Tesla was essentially refining by crowd sourcing data.

I know that Tesla uses Mobileye sensors, but I had thought that Autopilot was Tesla's own proprietary software for the sensors. The video in this link looks very similar to Autopilot to me. So I was wondering is Autopilot essentially just the rollout of off the shelf Mobileye package with some...

I just switched from the staggered 21" on my P85D to the 19" (T Sportline) with Pilot Sport A/S 3. I went with 245/45 R19 all around. I was very concerned about the loss of performance, and didn't want to have to live with the traction control coming on every time I accelerated aggressively...

I have experienced it too. It is not an illusion. You can see that the graphic of the car shows that it is tracking closer to the right side of the lane when it happens.

CHG-ON, man I am envious. I wish I were in the same boat. It is good to know that it isn't widespread. I love my car, just can't wait to get rid of this last nagging issue with a permanent solution. As I mentioned they have been unable to resolve it over three service appointments, which is...

Good point. It's a very thin strip of material that sits flush against the gaskets. It didn't leak on the one day I had it And it rained quite a bit. The product above works to stop the squeeking, but the adhesive doesn't last beyond one day. I called Lexus to see how much they charged for...

No the tracks on the sides are greased. Front underneath is metal frame which rests on a rubber gasket when closed.

I would for sure let Tesla try to fix it first, and if that doesn't work try the fix that others have mentioned about covering the upper portion of the front metal tab with soft velcro tape. If that doesn't work then I would resort to the front leading edge like this. Here is a picture of...

Here is the product that I used to immediately stop the persistent creaking I was getting from my sunroof: Amazon.com: 2pcs Wiring Loom Harness Adhesive Cloth Fabric Tape 19mm/15m: Office Products I have a 64XXX VIN car but for some reason have had my fair share of creaking issues. After I...

Discount tire had the same issue. I was told the Service Centers always make sure they have some way to get some. When I checked it was over the summer, I was told at the time that they were reformulating the tires. It makes me wonder if that was true or it was a low demand issue.

I did the full car broken down in pieces. I initially delayed getting the film in the front and was really surprised that the paint and aluminum hood were so soft. We have a lot of quarries in San Antonio and one drive on the highway, without noticing any specific impacts I was able to find a...

Cottylowry, No I have a 2014 model, delivered in December. I just had been following the Model S for quite some time prior to purchasing. I have to apologize. When i got home this evening I tried to do the same behavior as I had witnessed in the morning, with backing up and switching to...

Will they refund your deposit if you cancel your order prior to production?

I hadn't seen anyone mention this as now a feature. I have a very narrow garage opening and have to close my mirrors when I go in and out of my garage. My usual morning routine consists of closing the mirrors to back through the door, and forgetting to open them until I hear the wind hitting...

If you push up on the front the sunroof in the center does it reproduce the creaking noise when the roof is closed? It did for me, and they had to insulate that metal tab that sticks out the front of the sunroof when opens.

Very cool that they are offering additional choices. Wonder if this is in response to the need for a more durable rim.

Unfortunately this video is already getting seen by a wide audience. I came into work this morning and was told by a coworker who is a non-Tesla owner, to not use Autopilot. My co-worker asked if I had seen where Autopilot tried to steer into oncoming traffic.

I just did a commute of 20 miles each way over pristine freshly resurfaced and newly painted highway. I kept getting the nag message every few minutes to hold the steering wheel.

Mine is version 2.7.56. I also used during the morning commute and also have the hold steering wheel message. For me if I didn't have my hands on the steering wheel after a couple of minutes a little flag would pop up from the bottom and tell me to "hold steering wheel." It is not the same as...

Commasign, I am also a P85D with 64k VIN. Installing now also.

Me no Likey, from both an aesthetic or safety point of view.

I know I read a description that said as the windshield goes back it becomes tinted. I would expect it would be similar to the Model S panoramic sunroof as it goes over the head, and that has pretty effective factory oem heat reducing tint.

Installing now 64xxx.

Great idea. Why not change to an alternative brand black lightening cable to it would be that much less visible in the rear?

I just got, "Software Update Available" one hour ago. I will be really disappointed if it ends up being ver. 6.999. Car is December delivery P85D.

i couldn't make my noise come on by pushing on the dash top. It seemed to come on at certain speeds or road conditions. Like when it got to a certain frequency it would start resonating and then keep making a buzzing sound. I noted that mine would come on for some reason on cloverleafs, or...

I hadn't seen any similar thread with anyone having a series of multiple sound issues, and just wanted to list it in case anyone is having any similar issues, and looking for possible solutions. Last night for the first time since delivery I was able to drive home to the sounds of sweet...

I think that there may have been "some" refinements, at least to the autopilot sensors on the Model X that may offer the potential for increased functionality of the autopilot system in the future. If you look closely at the pics of the Model X on the Tesla webpage you will see that they have...

This is our experience at the Lake Charles LA supercharger when we did a road trip from Texas to Florida over the summer. We called the 1800 number listed on the Supercharger and sent them a picture of the extreme ICE condition. They stated they would get with property management. On our...

I have found that if I get that message and try repeatedly often it will just "take" one time and start to work and spool the episode.

I think that it has yet to go before the City Council for the final vote. The initial vote was denial because of the weird concerns of toxicity of the batteries on the water discharge zone.

If it is the noise I think you are describing, I have it too. It is destinctly different than the lane departure, and is frustratingly intermittent. In my case if you turn off the lane departure it still occurs. It seems to come from the front left A pillar area. I thought it was bad speaker...

My car has a VIN in the 64,000s so I can tell you it is still an issue. All I can say is thank you, thank you! The quick 5 second Velcro application has seemed to have mad a huge difference.

Since I got my car in December I have been hyper vigilant of avoiding any potholes or rough streets due to all the reports I had read on threads. I don't recall every hitting anything, and despite that had one bent rim, and one other wheel was fine but that tire had a sidewall bubble and...

Andrew, I think we took delivery of our P85D around the same time. I have been pretty set on downsizing from the 21" PS2s to most likely the Pilot Sport A/S 3s when the PS2s were spent trying to balance improved practicality will the least loss of performance. So I am really interested in your...

There are two issues with the 21" wheels. First is the tires, the second is the rims. On the 21" being the tires are low profile, they are more prone to sidewall damage being there is less rubber between the road contact and the rim, and thereby easier for the tire to get damaged. They second...

TSLA Pilot, are you running staggered or non-staggered 21"s? Mine are staggered, meaning that the only tire that fits is the PS2. For me in Texas, I had one tire replaced due to a sidewall bubble at 7K miles, and was told that there is a small bend in one other rim (which I can't feel when...

I also am interested in the traction. Yobigd20's video shows exactly what I don't want. I think quiet would be great, but I don't want traction control to go off every time that I accelerate.

yobigd20, Have you had any issues with rubbing with the 255's up front?

That sucks. Tesla just can't catch a break in Texas. I live just outside city limits. Wish I lived inside so I could call my city council member.

No. I also had a bad gasket on the steering column which was making more noise then the clicks. Every time I would turn the steering wheel at low speed it would make a low moan. They initially tried greasing it up, but found that the gasket was cinching up on the steering column still with...

I have the same on a December delivery P85D.

Does the current warrepanty replacement look different in any way?
