    Upgraded to MCU2 now Sirius XM is available, what gives?

    I think you just solved it. I dont think that i have the antennas because i surely did not have that option before the upgrade. Ill do some research on figuring out how one can find out if they have the anennas.

    Upgraded to MCU2 now Sirius XM is available, what gives?

    thanks for your reply livesmith. I would think that it's some sort of mistake, but why would the icon and all of the stations be there? im truly baffled. Would be a nice surprise if it actually works. The message on the screen says "trial expired 10.11.20". I was on the phone with sirius xm...

    Trade in 2017 Model S for a Y

    I recommend renting a Y. I would hate for you to get mesmerized by the shiny new object and regret it later. I too thought that i wanted a Y, but then i had the opportunity of driving one for a few days while my car was at the service center. The only thing i like about the Y over the S is...

    How often is content updated on in-car apps?

    Hi all, I enjoy listening to NPR's tinydesk concerts, but the NPR vehicle app only has concerts up to maybe 2022. I get updated content on my other aps, but not this one. Can anyone shed some light on this. I have MCU1 in my 2017 vehicle. Thanks

    NVX Subwoofer vs 4 light harmonic door speakers

    I agree with Durwood. By the way Durwood, you werent kidding about going crazy on the sound deadening. I ended up doing all four doors, and the rear hatch.

    NVX Subwoofer vs 4 light harmonic door speakers

    October update. Ill continue updating this post. Maybe someone will find it helpful. Today i decided to sound deaden the lift gate. I was apprehensive, but took the plunge anyway. As i mentioned in a previous post, i was hearing some rattling from the rear when i would turn the bass knob...

    NVX Subwoofer vs 4 light harmonic door speakers

    Another update and question for those of you who added sound deadening to your hatch. I took the front doors apart yesterday and added sound deadening material. Time consuming, but i can hear the difference. I have some resonance from the subwoofer and now want to apply deadening material...

    Another audio upgrade thread for UHFS (2016)

    Beatle, where exactly do you apply the sound dampening in the hatch? I have some resonance with some songs from the subwoofer.

    NVX Subwoofer vs 4 light harmonic door speakers

    Another update; I installed the light harmonic front door speakers today. For anyoneconsidering doing this, im sure it's been mentioned before, but it's pretty simple. It only took me about 15mins per door. I dont really hear a difference yet, but i habe read that there's a break-in period...

    NVX Subwoofer vs 4 light harmonic door speakers

    Thank you for taking the time to share your experience of installing the sounddeadening material Durwood. This was very helpful. Sounds like i will NOT be taking that on. Ill just turn the music up, lol. Thanks again!

    NVX Subwoofer vs 4 light harmonic door speakers

    Durwood, could you share your experience in installing the deadening material, what's involved, the cost, and where you purchased the material? Thank you. I ordered some door speakers and they should arrive tomorrow so im planning to install the door speakers this weekend.

    NVX Subwoofer vs 4 light harmonic door speakers

    Update: I had the NVX sub installed and it sounds great! Gives new life to the sounds system. However, the sub also exposes how weak the other speakers are. Since Light Harmonic is running a holiday weekend sale, plus 10% off, I decided to order them and will install them soon. My issue is...

    Does MCU2 improve audio on an MS with Standard Audio?

    I saw a video on youtube where the poster claimed that upgrading to MCU2 greatly improved the sound in his 2016 MS with standard audio. Can anyone confirm this? Im still trying to decide on whether or not to upgrade the speakers in my MS with standard stereo system. If the MCU2 improves the...

    I went from a Lexus (GS350-Fsport) to a 2017 75D last year so Ive been in your shoes. Ill preface my statement by saying that there are folks on this site who know way more about Teslas than I do, so ask questions and someone will answer them. Here are a few things to think about as you embark...

    NVX Subwoofer vs 4 light harmonic door speakers

    Following up on this. I took my car to a reputable local audio place near my home. After sitting in my car with me for about 20 minutes or so to listen to the current sound, and to listen to the genres of music i listen to, desired output volume, etc, the installer recommended a set of focal...

    NVX Subwoofer vs 4 light harmonic door speakers

    Thanks again all! I stopped by the carmax near my home today since they always have good amount of Teslas on the lot, and the doors are always unlocked. I sat in a 2019 MS performance and tested the sound system....WHOA! The sound system in that car was incredible. Im not sure if the...

    NVX Subwoofer vs 4 light harmonic door speakers

    Thank you all for your replies. One question I forgot to ask was in regards to installation. Do you all recommend a shop, or was it pretty easy to install on your own?

    Are shops supposed to do chrome delete on the inner and outer door handle?

    As someone previously mentioned, de-chroming is not for the faint of heart. I used the the Tesbros kit as well and I will say that the mirrors were the most difficult to wrap. There are 10 seperate pieces for each mirror....TEN! It took me about 2-hours to complete one mirror. My...

    Advice please: Purchasing 75D from Carmax

    Thank you Tam. No bubbles on either. This is how both lights look at night. In speaking with the manager, he said this is something that should be taken up with Tesla if I decide to purchase the vehicle. Am I asking too much to have this taken care of by Carmax, or should i just purchase the...
