Hi All, A question for the Refresh Owners: How well does the New Heat Pump Air Conditioning system perform versus the older A/C ??? Many of us in the old days bought 6 or 7 seat models that we did not need the extra seats for in order to get the larger Air Conditioning System... Thank You...

Hi FSD Beta testers, The Dog Mode and Camp mode were introduced in the 2022.12.X.X branch of the car software... You will get access to this on the next release of FSD Beta code 2022.12.3.15 and beyond. Good luck, Shawn

Hi @mr-dmitry , Would you mind mentioning the name of the Service Center??? Many here have a good knowledge of the strengths and weaknesses of the various Service Centers. Thank You, Shawn

Hi @DelPhonic1 , Congratulations on the car!!! The Blue is gorgeous... Enjoy!!!

Hi @Ss2017 , In your Tesla App you will be able to see the invoices, even if they were no charge, for work performed on your car... Generally the FSD computer upgrade is done independently of the cameras... They are supposed to send you an invite to upgrade the cameras... Please check your...

Hi @UShe , I would check your low voltage levels. All of your readings are consistent with a 12 volt lead acid battery... The "12 Volt" AGM batteries are slightly lower voltage... From the Model S and Model X forums where people are trying to connect radar detectors and other accessories -...

Hi @mr-dmitry , Hell yes... (sorry) Your car may have additional unique conditions that may or may not be resolved by the new computer and/or the software fix. Maybe a kink or unique bend in the cooling tubing... They will be able to investigate and communicate with the engineering team to...

Hi @SteveSchweer , Thank you for the information!!! I am hoping that your research will lead to a functioning adaptive suspension by the time I get my refresh X... My current car was just before the Ravens, so I have never had the opportunity to experience the adaptive suspension. Thanks...

Hi @SteveSchweer , I enjoyed your movie and applaud your research!!! Did you see a part number for the "Air Suspension ECU" on your Tesla paperwork? Would you classify the waveform and action a PWM type of control? Thank you, Shawn

Hi @jbrowdy , My 2018 Model X 100D would not charge on the original Gen 1 charger that worked well for my wife's 2015 Model S85D. Fortunately, I got some Gen 2 chargers as referral awards back then and all is good now... I used the mobile connector on 14-50 until the Gen 2 was installed. You...

Hi @Phleabag , As @X.l.r.8 mentioned there a few ways to "relearn" the sensors to your car... There is a Special Tesla tool to do this. Tesla used to sell the tool to Roadster owners but gave up on that... Very many tools will reprogram or clone TPMS sensors for the Roadster. The trick is to...

Hi @FatherTo1 , It's still painfully slow... I have not had a chance to work on the speed of it... Yet... I save everything so it is slow... If you saved only Sentry and Saved clips it's not that slow. But it is automatic, so it needs no babysitting... Shawn

Hi @dub1ous , I have recently installed the Teslausb system on my 2018 Model X. I am on 2022.4.5.21 and I have used the latest marcone github image. It is teslausb-20211106 It was a pain to setup but it works well now... He does support a partition for music files. I followed the...

Hi All, Just like a hitching post for a horse... The mobile Gen 2 with 14-50 is what I have used to charge in Florida for the past 3 years... Still waiting for September (2022) for my new X... Shawn

Hi @drewski , Both of my 4G modems with the Hologram SIM are showing Mode: WCDMA,Online. I think it is OK. My phone app connects very quickly with the new 4G modem!!! Shawn

Hi @MX LR MSM , I have the 2018 Model X, so I'm not sure about the 2021... The picture is not the best because it's a dark area. In mine the connector was very tightly taped to another wiring harness straight to the left of the light near your left knee. It is a very cramped area to work in...

Hi @red2017s , This is an example of what @ATPMSD was referring to above. Your IT gurus will understand... https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B07GJQHL38?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1 Good Luck, Shawn

Hi @jgoode , Welcome to TMC !!! I hope you are enjoying your car. You are adding many miles... A "no calculation" method to be sure your charges are accurate would be to add a sub-meter to your new circuit. This should capture all of the power added to your car as well as that power lost to...

Hi @miimura , If you continuously have a weak signal in your garage you may want to try one of these "signal boosters." I have my Roadster in a metal pole barn and I had trouble getting a good signal through the metal roof...

Hi @Nate Finch , I don't want to seem to be a trailer salesman but... I have had good luck hauling some specialty items in a 4" x 6" Utility trailer. Sometimes called a "luggage trailer." It fits in the air stream of the car and does not have too much impact on range. I live in an area where...

Hi @blove , Sorry for your issues... Various places in this forum - people recommend driving on a long straight freeway with well painted lines as the best way to calibrate the cameras quickly. I have no idea regarding your USB stick saying it is too small. It is also recommended to remove...

Hi @gglockner , I saw the typo no way to correct it... Back to the subject at hand good choice taking Option 1 - It is the Tesla supported way to go. Comment on Option 2 - You need it to charge a "breakaway" battery or to power low wattage lights in a...

Hi @gglockner , I would make a recommendation. Please do not roast the recommender... Purchase a hard wired trailer brake controller.. I like Prodigy P3 - Roughly $150 I think you said you had or were ordering the 4 wire trailer brake harness for Tesla - Sorry I do not have the part number...

Hi @Darmie , The part @Les236 mentioned above is the "Central Body Controller." When my car stopped auto presenting the doors it was also the Central Body Controller that failed... Be sure to take all available key fobs to the appointment. If it is the central body controller, the key fobs...

Hi All, Sorry I missed this thread last year... A good TPMS sensor I have had luck with is an Alligator 590883. They are available from Amazon currently for $24 each. They have to be programmed with a TPMS tool. https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B01LZ8JWSY?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_dt_b_product_details...

Hi All, An update/warning for @gglockner and others interested in towing trailers. I noticed the Echo Brake controller you mentioned you will use for the brake system. I downloaded the install instructions. I noted for the controller to work pin or blade 2 in the car has to be 12 Volt +. In...

Hi Henry and Paul, To keep the information in a single thread, I would add the part numbers for the melted fuseholders... Just in case you need them. They are Littlefuse 03450121HX020 "Fuseholder knob black 5X20MM" They are currently out of stock at digikey. Digikey part number is F4878-ND...

Hi Paul, I have dealt with that one before... The arrow is pointed at the wrong place. You want the two gray circles at the bottom left of the picture. https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/powertrain-problem-id-963.56671/page-2 As you can see from my holders - They do get hot... I...

Hi @mr-dmitry , I think that the only upgrade possible on your car is FSD. If you already bought FSD, there are no upgrades available for your car. Glad you got a nice one and that you are enjoying it... Shawn

Hi @RC93 , Your "check adaptive suspension" message may be your chance to start a conversation with your service center to resolve the problem for many here... Good luck, Shawn

Hi @EER JR , Welcome to TMC!!! It's like @GoodRide said above in the "Vehicle" panel change the setting "Driver Door Unlock Mode" to off. That way when you unlock the car all doors unlock... See the picture above... Good luck, Shawn

Hi @Hoosierdaddi , There is a massive FSD Beta release that may be pushed this week. (3/13/2022) Elon said that if it works out, they may push it to all drivers who have a safety score of 95 or above... It should be soon... Shawn

Hi @niogyn , While you are waiting for your service appointment there is something you might want to try... In the Service menu "Change Wheel Size" Change the wheel size or easier change the wheel color. Let the car reboot. Change the wheel size or color back to the original size or color...

Hi @jerseygirl18 , Driving home now... Too many appointments up north... Shawn

Hi @Edtreo , Check out post 25,620 in this thread by @Oil-LOL ... Shawn

Hi @avesraggiana , The central body controller is a small computer unit that keeps the registration information for the key fobs... So when it failed and was replaced the key "codes" had to be programmed into the new central body controller... I think it works with windows and door locks...

Hi @TheGringoShow , For your service request for the immobile seat: You can only have one service request open at a time. However, you are able to modify or add to your existing request... Modify your current service request to add the additional concern- "rear passenger seat will not move."...

Hi @jaanton , I have liked and used and programmed some sensors for a few users here... I like the Alligator (HUF) 590883 It can be programmed to match (clone) your existing sensors or create a new set of 4. They are $28 each at Amazon... Do you have the K-line board for your OVMS??? The...

Hi @jaanton , I would try to "Flash from Web" even if the software is the same... You will need to run configuration again related to the modem. That horrible long number from the new modem, ICCID, has to be in your configuration. Maybe it was restored or maybe not... Your SIM moving from one...

Hi @JoeyJOEJOE , The Raven line of cars and suspension started roughly April of 2019. The Raven suspension you are looking for is called "Adaptive suspension." So - That is what you are looking for... That being said, once the Raven cars started production both S and X since then, and now are...

Hi @MikeScarne , The Micro SD card at 8GB sounds correct. I believe that contains the navigation data information. The 64GB that you are remembering is the internal EMMC that was failing and was the subject of a recall in MCU1. The original size of the EMMC was 8GB. Hope this helps, Shawn

Hi @BobA9 , From what you have written you may be having a common failure... You say to increase steering wheel "pressure" or squeezing the wheel tighter. This is not what the car wants - It wants you to (micro) turn the wheel... Barely budge the yoke toward the side of the road or toward the...

Hi @Tfard61 , Gorgeous car!!! Love the Red... Still waiting for mine. September 2022. Enjoy, Shawn

Hi @IdaX , Yikes!!! Listen to what you are saying... What would it be like to say that you had a "catastrophic battery heating runaway?" Many, many thousands of dollars if your battery bursts in to flames... With time to prepare you should be able to get a good towing quote... Why risk...

Hi @Rinzler081 , Sorry, my mistake... I thought this was the "well" or trunk behind the third row... I don't have this in my 7 seat model X... It may need some support. Maybe some parts are "missing" underneath it... Check it out. Good luck, Shawn

Hi @Rinzler081 , That cover is very thin plywood... It is not rated for a person or very much weight... Check your owner's manual for maximum weight. It may be broken. If not and you want more carrying capacity without the creaking - You may want to reinforce it. BEWARE it is supported by...

Hi @Kashkash , Tesla does not like owners adding coolant to the closed loop system. Why? If you contaminate the coolant it will be a very expensive cleaning to remove the contaminated fluid, especially from the traction battery... Think thousands of dollars... Is your car under warranty...

Hi @Monkeyron , I'm not sure about Toolbox... Do not buy a used one on eBay it will NOT work... Mobile Service can create one for you easily and quickly. They have made many for me. Good luck, Shawn

Hi @aladin , The peeling screen cover is a protective cover to be removed by the owner - You... It keeps the screen clean from scratches and blemishes in production. Enjoy! Shawn

Hi @1percentcamber , Were the wire harnesses damaged at all??? In the quiet space inside of the rear pans makes a wonderful hiding/living space for rodents... Don't ask me how I know... Coolant hoses on the rear drive unit for me. Shawn
