I received the following quotes during the month of July 2018: OCD and Supreme - $7500-8000 full wrap but does not include paint correction. If you are getting paint correction and ceramic coat then it will close to $10K. Chrome delete was $1100-$1800 quoted. SS Customs - "come by and let's...

Dropped my MX off in the Los Gatos location yesterday. All work is done is covered garages except for the washing and prep. Looked very well organized to me and saw a couple M3 being wrapped/tinted. Also glad to see their manufacturers certificates and certifications in plain view. My full wrap...

I think the "whale song" is related to a firmware update as I've had this happen 3 times in the last couple weeks. In my case, I've noted some similarities in all 3 cases: It only happened when I got out of the vehicle and got back in within 5 min or so. Never had it happen when parked...

Regarding mobile hotspot - if you want this on 24x7 or something close to that. It is best to get one that operates without a battery installed. My Franklin R850 from Freedompop is such a hotspot. This way you can connect it the ODB2 connector with a 12V to 5V converter and always have power. If...

While there instances where somebody rejects a vehicle on delivery, I think there are also several other reasons for non delivery: Couldn't qualify for financing when due. I asked this question at a Mercedes dealership once and was surprised to hear how frequently this happens. Just because the...

Thanks for the report! Personally, I am not expecting the same level of installation like the ones that I got $7500 quotes for full body wrap compared to the group buy $4200. I'm going with the lower cost and think I will get 90-95% of what the high end guys do and both offer same warranty. I...

Done! Yes price was the same, although I added other service that was not included in the package offers. Also note, their current address is Los Gatos and they are updating their website now. Burlingame is no longer an option either.

Thanks for setting up the group buy! I am getting my MX wrapped and ceramic coated.

Hedgefund managers are colluding with media and other influential sources to create a volatile market for Tesla. None of them have a true opinion or care if Tesla makes it or not. They would love the Tesla stocks to go up and down like a yoyo for the next 100 years. Fake news indeed.

The fact is news commentators have taken over news reporters. This is in response to an audience who value entertainment value over being informed. Like any successful business, you have to produce what your customers want.

On my AP2.5 and this update, I've experienced 3 times over about 500 miles driven where I get the front collision alert flashing the forward car image red, but the "real" car is still a couple car lengths ahead. In all 3 cases, the car in front was white and stop light was on. It didn't matter...

Yes, you have the filter shroud already in place. Be sure the put the filter in with the direction arrow pointing to the shroud. Also, push the filter all the way in where all four sides touch the inner frame. The bottom of the filter will look like it's pushed in further than the top but that...

This sucks for recent builds/delivery who paid for PUP. Looking ahead, it seems to me Tesla's strategy for the winding down of tax credits could be to make more options standard at a reduced overall cost. If true, AP could be standard later on with an increase of $2-3K in price. That plus the...

It seems in order of easy to hard, the PUP features that could potentially be added as options are: 1) Self presenting doors - could probably OTA that feature 2) Biodefense - software plus installation of HEPA filter. I have installed a 3rd party filter myself and it takes 10 min. 3) Premium...

According to NHTSA and IIS: 35% of vehicle deaths involves cars rolling over 0.66% of vehicle deaths where fire was the primary or contributing factor (this includes cars catching on fire from external sources)

Best use for summons for me is when I can't visually tell how far I should park head in. I have my MX set to low suspension and there are some parking spaces with some rather tall stops or curbs. I get out and use summon to move that last ft or so. I once had somebody in a Mercedes SL that...

You can always get one of these: SoundWear Companion Wearable Speaker | Bose

I went with Norm Cubby too. Took a week for delivery and is by far the most factory OEM looking drawer. I opted for the Tesla logo handle. Craftsmanship is top notch and my sunglasses could not be happier. The design is such that the slight lip of the bottom edge of the original nook holds the...

I tried to use the torque wrench, but the bolts turn too easily and could not get a reading. I can accurately measure about 3 nm and even that was too high. "Finger tight" is generally about 2 nm so it seems there is a lot of give on the plastic louvers. What I ended up doing is finger...

Thanks! I see you have a 2018 MX as well so I will give EV Amped a try.

I just tried this and IMHO, it is not meant for Model X. I have a 2018 so maybe the design changed but there is a large gap to the left and that causes this to slide out too easily at moderate acceleration. Last think I want to do is keep pushing this back in. Returned it. Does anyone know of a...

I have spent a lot on home and portable audio and think I have pretty good hearing. Yes, the MX standard audio is average for a premium car. However, while driving you are surrounded by 60-70 dB of ambient noise. You really need to crank up your stereo in order to compensate. That's fine if you...

I realize it's not easy to give more specifics. My initial try was too loose as the mount loosened up with just 50 miles of driving. I am going to use my mini torq wrench and note how much nm force I use starting low. I don't think the louvers and posts are not very strong since they are...

6/18 MX with latest firmware. I use autopilot every work day for about 40 miles total. Not a single warning. I hold the steering wheel right below the right spoke with one hand and just let the weight of my forearm apply just enough torque. I can also immediately correct steering if needed. The...

I take my comment back. According to his article, if you purchased your car before the price increase, you can still upgrade for the original $4K. The new price and upgrade price only applies to new vehicle orders after the increase. Tesla increases price of its ‘Full Self-Driving Capability’...

Figures Tesla would be the first company to make good on the ol' sales trick of "get it now or prices could go up later".

Fremont delivery. Not a damn thing. Even my keys were left on the dashboard without a box, no covers, no lanyards. I did get a free latte but consumed on premise so that doesn't count. I blame this on the new Model 3 owners who are too giddy to ask for swag.

Don't know if my experience is related, but I only get the buzzing sound infrequently when playing Slacker. It has never happened with the radio. The buzzing is at a fixed volume regardless of the music volume. I am pretty familiar with high end audio equipment and imho, the buzzing is not due...

Great product and easy to install. @kpalaniswami what is a good way of knowing if the screws are tight enough but not too tight? Also FYI if you didn't get license plate screws included with the front adapter from Tesla, the size of the screws are #10 3/4 inch.

When I picked up my MX in Fremont on 6/5, suspension was factory set to standard. I drove that way without issue for the first 1K miles, but have since then changed to low for better fuel economy for the past 1500 miles. However, right after I changed to low, I put my MX in for service to have...

Yes, that is the filter that I installed and noted earlier in the thread. The fit is perfect. As for effectiveness, I can only comment on what I perceive and so far I haven't noticed any odors getting into the cabin. I've paid attention when older cars or diesel trucks are in front of me. With...

Perfect fit. It has some thin foam around the edges to get an air tight fit. You have to push the filter all the way in so it is flush with the inner frame of the filter box. The bottom edge of the filter box extends further out than to top so don't use that as a guide. The bottom edge extends...

Correct, not a budget issue. I had no luck buying the OEM part from Tesla and just got tired of their BS. The only risk I run with a 3rd party filter is that it does not filter as well. No safety risk versus no filter at all as the only active ingredient is carbon.

I ordered this filter: https://www.amazon.com/TeslaHome-Filter-Replacement-Activated-Carbon/dp/B0779WGQWQ/ref=sr_ph_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1530824249&sr=sr-1&keywords=model+x+filter It's confusing at first because it's labeled "cabin filter", but you can see the photos of it unfolded. It doesn't...

Thanks to all on this thread. I ordered a filter from Amazon and installed it in about 10 minutes.

6/5 delivery of my MX 75D, ordered on 2/26. Fremont pickup. Delivery experience - uneventful, definitely got the feeling they wanted me to drive off quickly. No freebies except coffee. Not even covers for the keys. No box with the keys either, just sitting on the dash. Detailing was obviously...
