I have a 2018 M3 AWD with 50k miles that I have been generally happy with. It has a few rattles, road noise is a little high, old interior console, and had to put after market power trunk and wireless phone chargers in. I also have had a couple of non-warranty repairs. I have a lingering concern...

i hope i’m not the only one that has routing and autopilot issues when using the i75 and 595 express lanes near Miami? On i75 it doesn’t seem to know of all the exits that are available. On 595 navigate on autopilot keeps turning itself on and off. i think it is because it doesn’t recognize the...

I am one of those who decided to upgrade to the P3D in order to get the white interior. I have confirmed my order and my edit button is gone. No VIN number. When I found out Tesla was now offering white with the regular AWD configuration, I called Tesla to see if I could change my order. After...

decided to splurge on a performance version to also get the white interior. I have selected pearl white paint with the white interior but my wife is worried it will be “too white”. the second option is midnight silver with the white interior. anybody else out there going for white on white...

My perfect Model 3 would be: - RWD (Don't need AWD in Florida) - White Interior - Full $7,500 tax credit It seems to me that Tesla is going to hit the limit of number of vehicles delivered for the full rebate this next quarter (sometime between July and September), which would mean one has to...

I have been looking at the configurator trying to figure out whether to place and order now and whether it is worth going for the performance in order to get the white interior. Have you guys noticed the color on the dash on the configurator pictures? It seems black near the driver side but...

Thinking about selling my 2013 S 85 Model S and getting a Model 3 (which I have already reserved and would be able to get in early 2018 according to Tesla's web site). Wanted to run some of my thoughts by the group to see what you guys think. The math appears to make sense: - Sell the Model S...

We recently moved to Florida from the midwest and brought our 2013 S85 with us. First, I called SunPass and got the external transponder since my Tesla is one of the older ones. Was able to install it myself after watching a couple of youtube videos, no problem. Then I wanted to have free...

i decided to let my warranty expire when i hit 50k miles after 3 years and not buy the extended service contract. i figured with the unlimited mile power train and battery warranty that was enough protection from expensive repairs. my question is, i guess i need to buy new roadside assistance...

I have been noticing slightly cracking on the driver seat leather, it is on the side bolster near the door. any thoughts? warranty claim?

What is the latest thinking about how far can someone actually drive after the "Charge Now" screen appears (ie reaching 0 miles of rated range)? I miscalculated a trip the other day, had to baby the battery capacity on the way back home, and the screen showed up half a mile from my house. I was...

Now that winter is coming back, I have the feeling that my Model S is using more battery in the winter. The battery heater seems to come on more aggressively, regen limitation stays on for longer. In the last couple of days of city driving my average energy usage has been over 450. Has anybody...

Just coming back to the US from Norway on a business trip. Maybe those who live in California are more used to it, but I was shocked at the number of Teslas I ran into, especially in Oslo. On the taxi from Oslo airport to the city, about 30 miles, I saw about 20 different Teslas. In my day and a...

I think I am doing something wrong when folding the rear jump seats to put them back into the trunk "well". I get them all folded correctly but then when it comes to flip them into the well, they have a tendency to become unfolded again. I end up having to hold them together with my hand as they...

I have noticed that some multi-day road closures (due to construction) show up in google maps on the iPad but do not show up on the Tesla Nav screen. On the iPad you see a "do not enter" sign but on the Tesla Nav screen you just see the green line as if traffic was normal. I assume this is a...

I bought my Tesla without Paint Armor thinking I would get Opticoat or similar applied after delivery. However, I am having a hard time finding reputable detailing shops that I could trust with the car. Does anybody have any recommendations?

I have seen a lot of threads discussing specific accessories but have not seen anyone collect a master list of "must have accessories" on a google doc that new buyers could refer to. Things I have on my list which keeps growing while I wait for the car... - Fob holders - All weather mats - Tire...

Does anybody know if someone filing federal taxes as a nonresident (1040NR) is still eligible for the $7500 tax credit when buying a Tesla? I just moved to the US but since I moved towards the end of the year, my 2013 tax status will be non resident. Just realized I might not be able to claim...

I recently visited a Tesla store for the first time so I could get my test drive in before finalizing. What an amazing car! But that is for another story... The thing that shocked me is the amount of education and explaining that goes on at the store. We few Tesla nuts read these boards and go...

I don't anticipate needing the complicated lease/financing scheme announced recently, and I think all the voodoo math around hourly savings is hard to defend and unlikely to convince anyone. i am planning on either paying cash or getting conventional financing (don't need the financing for the...
