    Walk up unlock/mirror un-fold - Only after button press possible?

    Must be a legacy X? I wish mine worked like my Model 3 - where it doesn't do anything until I open the door.

    Used Model X from Tesla and no charging cable?

    Did not get one either for my 2019 from tesla.

    suspension $8000 fix???!!! 2018 x

    Tesla charges double for tires. They wanted 3k to change my tires out. But you can get them done via a little online shopping for $1300-1500 installed. Better selection of tires too.

    Yellow border on screen on a model 3 loaner

    Got a model 3 loaner today and the screen has the yellow border that you commonly see on the S/X. Hadn’t heard about it happening on the 3 yet.

    Wow! lemon'd without the hassle of going through the process. Are you going to get another one?

    Is this poorly formed seal normal (driver side base of spoiler)

    Wow, that is interesting and would be so unethical. I wouldn’t put it passed them to pull off that for CPO cars - a known gremlin that can’t be resolved but car can still drive - resell it as cpo and hope warranty ends before customer finds out. Tesla will gladly tell you how much a repair is...

    Is this poorly formed seal normal (driver side base of spoiler)

    I don’t know if your car was new or cpo, but either way, Tesla doesn’t make it easy to see a car before taking delivery. An issue like this would likely not be caught by 99% people. Only after it rains or you wash the car. Either way, your last paragraph that says they can’t change out the whole...

    2022 Model X - Interior Noise / Rattling / Crackling

    i wanted to say thanks for posting this! Fixed my creaking on my 2019! My SC is useless, and I’ll have to deal with keeping these towels there because they won’t fix this noise even if they know about it. Most likely they’ll end up breaking something and causing and issue elsewhere. So, this...

    Removing door handle bezel (chrome); should be simple!

    Also happened to this YouTuber He says the trims pretty cheap, so damage the original and install new ones with vinyl/dip

    The outside mirror posts on my 2020 MX are too shiny!

    I dipped without taking them off. Just have to mask them off properly and coat it with them folded and unfolded.

    The outside mirror posts on my 2020 MX are too shiny!

    Pretty common for X and S. Plasti dip or vinyl wrap.

    Advice on buying 2018 MX 100D with shuddering issue

    Price seems good. If you add extended warranty for peace of mind, you’ll have paid a little less or same as those that bought used from tesla. The pros are that you know what you’re getting. Cpo tesla is a crap shoot.

    Wheel configuration...does wheel weight come into play when estimating range?

    I went from 22” to 20” and before I changed it my power usage in the energy graph and range estimates in trip meter were way off until I changed it in the car settings.

    Are wind noises fixed under warranty for free or do they charge for it? (Wind noise from triangle piece on drivers door)

    SC zero’d out the charges for the wind noise issue. Apparently, the service advisor can zero it out only in person. Then, I took a tech on a test drive to show him the noise and he acknowledged it. They said they’re going to try adjusting the windows to see if that fixes it.

    Are wind noises fixed under warranty for free or do they charge for it? (Wind noise from triangle piece on drivers door)

    Just recently got the X. Experience above was for our 2018 model 3. That’s impressive that they didn’t charge you a towing fee. A long time ago, we had one of the first Model S in Bay Area ca. When tesla was just starting out. The SCs were amazing back then.

    Are wind noises fixed under warranty for free or do they charge for it? (Wind noise from triangle piece on drivers door)

    From my own personal experience, Burbank SC is bad. They lost my mobile connector that was in the trunk when replacing something on my 3 - I tried to call to see if the tech still had it (which is an exercise in patience with Tesla as a whole), they said there's no way that's possible - that it...

    Are wind noises fixed under warranty for free or do they charge for it? (Wind noise from triangle piece on drivers door)

    Burbank SC said that wind noiises are not fixed under warranty. They cited Page 10 of new vehicle warranty: exclusions and limitations: general appearance or normal noises and vibrations including but not limited to general knocks, creaks, rattles and wind and road vibration".

    Is this poorly formed seal normal (driver side base of spoiler)

    yea that area turns into a lake. I’m sort of shocked that they haven’t fixed it. Edit: went looking for company in my misery and found out there are tiny drain holes. Who would have known. Liftgate water drain blockage

    USAA doubled premium!!

    On a side note - I wonder if cost of parts went down at all. I bet the 30% price cut didn’t trickle down to individual part prices.

    What has happened with the rollout of V11?

    Ok - someone in another thread told me that everyone had been upgraded to V11 - but my 3 was still stuck on 10.69 until I did a jog dial reset just now.

    SC to SC can get different results. Lots of people have examples of being denied at one but not another.

    Are wind noises fixed under warranty for free or do they charge for it? (Wind noise from triangle piece on drivers door)

    Getting some wind noise at this seal on the drivers door when going 40+ mph. I can push on it from the inside to quiet it down. Anyone know if service will fix this for free if still in warranty? Or are wind noise and rattles paid for by owner? Or does anyone know how to fix this?

    An interesting thing happened the other day with V11.3.x - On freeway - now that the car can give itself a little more room when driving adjacent to a truck, I also noticed that it did the same with a motorcycle speeding quickly from behind. Car was in the middle lane, motorcycle was coming up...

    2016 Model X Autopilot

    Having just purchased a used X, the 2016 comes with a pretty good discount because it has AP 1.0. To the credit of Tesla, if you see a screenshot of the software screen, it will say "Autopilot 1.0". But, some sites won't have a pic of that screen :P. The dead giveaway is the emblem/no-side-cam...

    Kindly help - X (2019-2022 range) differences esp vs Model Y ‘23

    I would love it if they could give us a setting to use the 3/Y/22+ control scheme. No reason we couldn’t activate AP the same way as the updated cars. The jog dials don’t have left right built in but you could use the physical buttons instead. Not sure how the 22+ update the little widgets in...

    Kindly help - X (2019-2022 range) differences esp vs Model Y ‘23

    A positive note for the X is that you can open/close any door from the main screen. Helps with people unfamiliar with where the buttons are, and how unusually hard you have to press the button to open the doors is.

    Kindly help - X (2019-2022 range) differences esp vs Model Y ‘23

    Navigation is also a bit quirky on the dual screens. The visual that shows the correct lane to be in is on the display in front of the steering wheel, and removed from the big screen. Not confirmed, but I think there are differences in how zoomed in/out the route is between the two. The X...

    I really miss not being able to use my phone as key for older S/X. Need to carry the key fob to get doors to Auto Unlock. But what’s also annoying about carrying the key fob is every time you walk near the car it will beep and unfold the mirrors. The car is parked in such a way that I pass by it...

    mx sunday drive energy consumption comparison

    2019 X on 22” in Los Angeles, freeway light traffic I am at 330-370wh/mi depending on incline. I’d kill for OPs numbers, but would get murdered going 60mph here. Have a road trip scheduled in 2 days, so hoping to see what I can really get with steady driving.

    Used 17 X thru TSLA

    So you went to pickup the car and found the falcon door issues before taking the car? Or how did you find out about the issues beforehand? Normally they don’t let you see it before signing everything, so you dodged one bullet. Wouldn’t it have been a similar outcome if the doors showed that...

    Rain guard for rear view camera (Model S and Model X)

    Yea not paying $30 for that. If you have a friend with a printer, print mine in 5 minutes for 0.01. Heck, have them print a dozen so that you can replace them whenever you go to the car wash and it falls off.

    Rain guard for rear view camera (Model S and Model X)

    Oh, hadn’t thought about that. It’s held on with double sided tape. Car wash would probably knock it off unless strong tape were used. I saw a couple screw holes on the side of the camera, I’ll see if I can use those to secure it in place.
