    Buying a used Tesla and I have concerns.

    I feel for you if you are truly out $500 just from rejecting this POS, that sucks. There is no way I'm plopping down $500 for an abused car like that. Who knows how many boogers are trapped between the seats from the little punks that did that damage. My kids would never do that to a vehicle...

    Buying a used Tesla and I have concerns.

    lol you need us to tell you to not buy this thing? Tesla really thinks their $hit does not stink from this behavior and people are trying to convince themselves to still go for it. I don't get it... I'm glad to see this as I was considering buying a used Y and had no idea it was this bad. Wow...

    Please! Talk me out of MX Plaid !!!

    I hate my 23 MXP. Feels cheap, sounds cheap. The doors are an absolute gimmick (and worse on the 23+ models). The novelty wears off after a few months and you wonder why you even did it. The ride is atrocious. It's a little better in "medium" mode however it will not stay in that mode for long...

    2023 HW4 Model X Front Door Issues

    Yes - has nothing to do with it. Pushing the button on the door to eject is the same as it doing it automatically with regards to fighting with it (I only know this because I have auto-open disabled in the garage because every time I go in the garage to get in the fridge it would pop the door...

    How to get software updates while on a long road trip?

    Buy a pocket router. There is a dope one for like $100 that handles the portals and such and then pushes the NAT connections without having to need it. Lots of youtube vids on these for hotel goers to share their connection with devices that don't like captive portals like apple TV's et. Al.

    2023 HW4 Model X Front Door Issues

    A sad moment was when the service manager had to pull my car out of the bay and bring it to the parking lot while I was picking it up. The alleyway is slim and due to the lack of USS, he did a 20 point turn which could have been done in two steps. Can't trust the new "vision display" it's just...

    2023 HW4 Model X Front Door Issues

    Correct. In fact most of the service advisors make up all sorts of stories to explain it. Like I said above they told me the showroom demo car acted different in "showroom mode" as the sensors are disabled. It wasn't until I got the manager out that he explained to me it was because of wind that...

    Another Tesla Y owner opened mine with his phone

    I'm sure at some point this will become Tesla. You just rent "tesla" and get in a random one in the parking lot (guaranteed to be 100 in the same color as "yours") and go to your destination. Like those dumb scooters you see all over the place on the sidewalks. It's a feature, not a bug. duh.

    Autopilot computer crash

    When it crashes what does the display say (outside of service mode)? I get this as well in my 23 MXP in the same area here in California on 405S freeway heading towards Orange County. Has happened a few times. When I I attempted to create a service ticket for this issue, I got a "do you have...

    2023 HW4 Model X Front Door Issues

    Reviving this thread a bit as I have some insight... I took my 2023 MXP in for service specifically for these annoying door issues. This is my first X, so I was thinking it was a defect or service problem. Depending on who I speak with in service, I get a different answer. Basically though...

    I got a very unfair third strike that I do not understand. Please help.

    I got a strike the other day after we got a "autopilot system failure" message out of nowhere. Neat.

    Service Center Totaled my 2023 MXLR

    Is he going to sell the car? Doesn't seem that way so not even sure why this is being discussed. He customizes his vehicles? People that do that aren't focused on resale. I just don't see that as a win tbh.

    Service Center Totaled my 2023 MXLR

    Just my opinions. From years of dealing with Tesla - they aren't interested in happy client stories they are interested in hype. Based on this, they treated him this way for a reason... All companies are focused on profits and they went out of their way to protect themselves here from some sort...

    Service Center Totaled my 2023 MXLR

    I feel like i'm in the minority here and you got the raw end of the deal. They broke your car and then gave you less money for it than you spent. Then they replaced it with a cheaper car with less capabilities (you're thinking HW4 is better yet still no real proof of this - I have a brand new...

    2023 Plaid "Refresh" Lowering Links / Spacers 22" Wheels

    A follow-through to my post after living with a lowered X - don't do it. The original idea was to be able to use the modes above Low to get a better ride however specific to the X, going above 35mph disables those modes and the car automatically lowered back to low mode. Looks fantastic! But...

    I’m scared to drive my new Tesla in the winter

    I drove my old MYP with summer tires (bald no less) from California to Wyoming last winter and it was a true white knuckle experience let me tell you. That was ultra dumb and yes, old cars and semis were passing me like it was nothing. The car felt so unstable even using off road mode. Tires...

    2023 CA HOV Decals

    Do you realize these are tied to the vehicles registration and unique? This is no different then asking someone to sell you a license plate and active registration. I don't know how anyone would be OK with this? Maybe seek out a fake set on Ebay? Or have a sticker shop cut you some fake ones?

    Model X - Y : up or downgrade??

    I went from a Y Perf to X Plaid and I feel the Y was a better car. Better priced, less bloat and to me it feels like it had more "usable" space. But I also don't use the rear-most 2 seats. Doors are a gimmick and the novelty wears off quick. Save the $ IMHO.

    23 MX Owners - Do you think we'll ever get full functionality without USS?

    And both act differently. The left door you have to wait a few seconds to be able to pull on it - otherwise it feels like it's going to break. The right door, the slightest pull (after waiting the delay) causes it to swing open violently all the way without stopping which if you don't stop it...

    23 MX Owners - Do you think we'll ever get full functionality without USS?

    My 2023 MXP was quite a downgrade with regards to FSD Beta vs my older 2020 MYP and even my 2018 M3. Just fighting with the doors constantly too lol. So dumb.

    Thoughts on the i4 M50 from a former M3P owner

    A good review. One major reason I stick with Tesla is the off chance I have to charge away from home is the supercharging network. But I rarely use it (if ever). Done a few road trips and it sucks. For road trips a hybrid makes more sense but a good one is pricey (like cayman hybrid or something...

    Driver door Auto Open vs Passenger door Auto Open. Passenger side is opening fully

    Interesting, our 2023 MX does this too. Figured it was a fluke, interesting to hear others having this issue. Passenger door almost swung right into my 993!

    Suing Tesla in small claims court in California

    It's sad but this happens often where employees aren't held accountable for telling you b/s. I've had it happen to me multiple times with Tesla especially.

    Center horn retrofit for Model S

    I love change. Bro i'm in tech, that is my entire life. This change makes no sense. It doesn't make sense to change something when it's not innovative - it's "change for the sake of change". we'll just have to agree to disagree (such is life).

    Cloud Profile Multiple Cars

    So this is lame there is no way to use cloud profile on one car and local in another. As soon as you associate your cloud profile with a phone key, it does it for the other car. Is the only way around this to not use cloud profiles at all? One car sits on the driveway the other in the garage...

    Center horn retrofit for Model S

    I disagree completely with you. Not every event is a full on accident with an airbag deplolyment. 95% of the time it's just someone on their phone veering off into my lane and they aren't paying attention. I rarely use the horn but when I do, it should just be where it's always been. This...

    Center horn retrofit for Model S

    This is disappointing. I shouldn't have to think about using the horn, I should just be able to push the middle of the steering wheel. Twice now some dumbass almost hit me and I had to look down and fumble trying to remember where the button was. I love when there is innovation, but this is just...

    Ride quality for refreshed S with lowering links

    Can you check to see if you're in "jack mode"? Mine likes to go into that mode on it's own sometimes.

    Ride quality for refreshed S with lowering links

    Tested yesterday evening. On freeway doing 68 miles an hour, I could only select "low" and "very low" suspension settings. I could not select anything higher. If I slow down below 35mph I can, but afterwards it goes back down to low. 2023 MXP running HW4 / 23.32.4

    Agreed it is a bit lame how they've taken over the controls. I was excited to move into a Model X with air suspension but in reality it kinda sucks.

    Ride quality for refreshed S with lowering links

    Personally for me, using lowering links on our Plaid Model X with 22" wheels has a significant reduction in ride quality adding some harsh bouncy-ness when on low / very low setting. The only way to make it smooth again is on medium height setting but the car won't say there at high speeds.

    2023 Plaid "Refresh" Lowering Links / Spacers 22" Wheels

    It will always look exaggerated if you don't lower the vehicle. The camber makes it fit better albeit with increased tire wear. 25mm in the rear looks flush to me (tiny poke on the bottom) and the front could have gone another 5mm imo. depends on preference. Also big notice here but with the...

    3-month FSD 'free' on new HW4 cars is useless

    Wow that came out of nowhere. Saw the massive update (took almost an hour) and let it rip. Went to the garage and wow all sorts of interesting noises coming from everywhere. Once it was done, I noticed FSD beta was available! And some other neat options for the scroll wheel to be able to adjust...

    3-month FSD 'free' on new HW4 cars is useless

    A strange feeling to downgrade for twice the cost. We just moved from a 2020 MY with FSD that got beta and we used it for a while and now have a 2023 MX with HW4 and yeah, missing features and ultrasonic sensors so auto park and the aut doors are funky. I see plenty of upset people on the forum...

    Vendor S3XY Buttons - Regenerative braking

    Please consider a bundle for the buttons and new commander and some sort of pre-release pricing / ETA. I have no use for the old commander if it does not allow adjustment of air suspension so don't want to buy it first.

    Vendor S3XY Buttons - Regenerative braking

    Sweet. I'll keep an eye on it. I don't see a way to pre-order the new commander only the new rotary knob which I can't use in a MX. Have you considered creating a bundle of buttons / new commander pre order?

    2023 Plaid "Refresh" Lowering Links / Spacers 22" Wheels

    For the rear it's perfect but the front could have gone another 5mm to match the rear. I'll take more photos in a bit.
