I haven't tested this lately, but a couple of years ago on my 2013 Model S, even once it was reset, it could still open my garage door. Obviously the name was gone, but I could just pull up in front of the house and configure the garage door opener and the garage would open. The rolling code...

As wishy washy as Tesla is on policies I won't be surprised if selling reservations comes back again some day. They are blocking it right now because of how much their prices have changed, but under times of low rate of change they might be back to turning a blind eye. Like so many others I...

Steve, did you live outside the Chicago land for many years? Were you someplace without winter, because that would be a bonus to me and probably many people. Chicago winter is hard on things and getting cars locally that haven't spent many winters here is a bit of a treat.

Have you read the post directly above yours? Pretty obviously sold for $32K.

I haven't lived there in a while, but that place has been excellent for a very long time. Enjoy!

If I didn't have a 16 year old about to get his license I would be picking up this car and eating at https://bynumssteakhouse.net/ this weekend. Good luck with the sale. Hope someone gets it that can appreciate how awesome this car is. Also if that someone gets bored of it in a year or two...

Link on the top of the first post. Good pictures actually. Car is in Washington DC area. Sweet deal. Wish I was in the market for that, I would be there tomorrow.

You really don't. High levels of inflation is fun for short periods of time, but if this keeps up for a few years it is going to turn really ugly.

The car market is nuts right now, and as we come into the fall, the fun begins, when will the music stop, and who will be left without a chair? Will the music even stop this year? Who knows!

Many of the older cars got upgraded over the years. The quick and easy way is if you can see what the pressure is in each tire, then you have the TPMS system of the 50900+ VIN cars in the older car. My old 2013 was upgraded, as were many others.

Are the new pictures after the detail? If so, I am unimpressed with your detailer

"I am moving abroad to take a new job which is why I need to sell it and purchase a new one there. I am willing to accept payments via venmo, zelle, or bank wire transfer." That reads like a standard scammer line.

https://www.findmyelectric.com/blog/tesla-free-unlimited-supercharging-how-to-check-if-you-have-it/ The exception is that calling Tesla and asking them is useless, they seem to always say it will transfer regardless if it will actually transfer or not. Caveat: No matter what you do or...

I can think of two off the top of my head, the bolts that corrode in the steering system, and the MCU flash memory. There were definitely others.

You might consider reporting your post, and asking for it to be moved to Tesla Parts for sale.

I can't speak for the new S/X but the 3 uses an entirely different suspension with very little Aluminum. It does use plastic, so different issues but none known yet. That break doesn't look like there were any crack propagation, it looks like it broke out at the end, and then the part near...

You are tempting me. I like the look of the new covers versus the old ones.

I recognized the pictures from when it was for sale early this year and was mostly curious if this was a scam or a legitimate sale. Plenty of scammers harvest pictures and repost them, and I figured I would do my part to help prevent a scam if I could. Looks nice, post pictures after the...

Have you owned it for a while? Any interior pictures?

Can you post the VIN?

I just sent some money for the wheels and tires, so hopefully they are sold!

OOPS, I read 2021 as 2012!!! Good luck!

Yes, BUT, it will cost you more than you want to spend. https://057tech.com/ These guys can do pretty much anything, and they are in your "neighborhood", but the things you are asking for are REALLY expensive.

I took delivery of the jacks, nice and just like new.

I need the front license plate bracket, and would take the J1772 adapter also. I will pay $60 for the pair and provide a shipping label. Paypal goods.

I am speculating, there are only so many D models from 2014. It isn't impossible that they made good suspension parts for a little while???

Take the money and run!

WOW, that is clearly wear and tear!!! (sarcasm) Unless the tire went flat because the wheel is no longer round anymore, I can't see this being wear and tear. Small daily impacts should not cause a catastrophic low mileage failure. I will say that if the ball joint was oversized, or the...

The only way I can figure this as a wear and tear at 32K miles is if the steel receptacle for the ball joint is expanding due to corrosion. As everyone already knows as steel corrodes through oxidation it expands, and the forces it can create during the process are quite tremendous. This could...

Can you post closeup pictures of the surface where the break actually happened?

Cheap cars are expensive right now. The best way to game the system right now is sell a car for more than it is normally worth, and then buy something newer for the same money early next year. For the Model S that ship appears to have sailed more or less the time Tesla started shipping new...

This advice may or may not apply to you depending on the state the car is titled in and the banks involved. I finance my cars with a bank that will send the title to the local branch, and then I meet the buyer there. The buyer pays me, I deposit the money, use some of it to pay off the loan...

There are also the occasional free stations near shopping centers and a free charge at 50KW is pretty nice perk to go along with giving the ability to charge almost anywhere I second the CCS adapter, I will buy it too because free CCS stations are a thing too. I also like options. I do wonder...

Due to your proximity to Hickory NC and 057 Technology I would suggest you consider keeping MCU1 and just upgrade the modem. That shop is run by one of the most knowledgeable Tesla hackers in the world, but he prefers to work on MCU1 cars. Just my 2 cents and I suggest you do your own...

Upper control arm on the three is made of steel and hasn't had the same issues with cracking as the Aluminum arms on the S. I second the assessment it is a ball joint. I am in the process of obtaining parts to swap mine too. My 2018 M3 LR creaks and squeaks if I so much as wiggle in the...

Yes, under normal circumstances it would be silly that a car would be the same price a year later, but this is a strange time we are in. The "funny" part was my bad attempt at humor.

Funny the difference a year can make.

I was just browsing the listings and finding private party cars for sale (allegedly, I didn't call anyone) for under 30K, and that wasn't a thing two months ago. It's still crazy out there but I think the peak for the 2013-2014 Model S is behind us. In June I couldn't find any valid listings...

Under any normal car market I would think that trying to trade a low mileage car for a higher mileage car would be a waste of time. The car market a couple of months ago, I would have said it probably would have been easy to pull something off like that. Not sure about now. The used S market...

Model year and mileage are handy things to have. Is it a true standard range, or the more common standard range plus?

Don't forget car insurance! Been there, and sold my S last year. GLWS

My model 3 doesn't have EAP, only the emergency features, and I would have to pay $3000 up front just to get the privilege of paying each month. I think I will just drive it myself, not like I really have another option anyway!

I doubt you are the only one, but most of us have invested in making sure our home wiring is in good shape. We can't control the feeds into our homes, but most utilities care enough to at least check it out if you call them. Obviously make sure your car is on wifi so it will grab the latest...

You can add a "tag" at the top of the page. Also post "it's sold" for those that miss the tag. As we are usually curious if you can include how much you sold it for, that would be awesome!

So Knight Rider lights are awesome. I personally would make sure I could easily turn them off though because some Police might think you are impersonating them or something (hopefully you already have this covered) . Totally agree that a video clip / youtube /gif is in order. Congrats on...

$Infinity +1 As in a greater than infinite amount of money. Sorry I was trying to be funny and failed. Maybe the $ would have helped. Oh well. In seriousness some feel like these more unusual cars, especially with Ludicrous, are worth $50k so long as you are willing to wait for the...

Infinity + 1 ?

You might also check carvana. I haven't personally sold to them, but my brother said they hand the check over when they pick up the car.

Unless you only finance part of the car.

Depends on the state. In Illinois private party saves about half on sales tax. Beyond sales tax there are those various fees like doc fees, transportation fees and what not. Private party allows a buyer to avoid those sorts of fees too. From what I have read, as a person that doesn't live in...
