    17kW System = 98.4 kWh Production (5.79kWh/kW of Panels)

    It wasn’t a perfect day today but it was the first triple digit day of the year. 20kW system in the Lower Key’s.

    Blind Spot Indicator

    I have a Mercedes that I bought in the fall of 2010 that does exactly that. 10 years ago!

    Tesla Factory PPF

    I have a 2012 MS that had film put on as an option when ordered. I don’t think that was an option for all that long, so perhaps I’m one of the few who ordered it like that but does anyone know if Tesla has a guarantee for it? Mine has a cracked look all over it, everywhere it was put on and it...

    67 Miles To 0 Miles In One Hour In The Driveway

    Mine ended up being the battery as well and it’s also supposed to be 1 week to get the battery to the east coast, which is tomorrow. It'll be interesting to see what size they put in it.

    67 Miles To 0 Miles In One Hour In The Driveway

    2019.32.2.1 but I think the software update and the battery problems were just a coincidence. The car is now a brick even though it was plugged in all night.

    67 Miles To 0 Miles In One Hour In The Driveway

    We managed to get the car in the driveway and onto the 40 amp charger. It went well for the first half an hour or so but the charging slowed. The Remote Tesla app was reporting that it’s a 46kwh battery..... and dropping. The charging was completed, per the Tesla app, at 13 miles. We will see...

    67 Miles To 0 Miles In One Hour In The Driveway

    Tried both. Tried holding the two wheel buttons for 3-4 minutes. Nothing.

    Tried that. The car would not reboot.

    67 Miles To 0 Miles In One Hour In The Driveway

    Had our P85 since Jan 2013 and I’ve never seen anything like this. Early this afternoon I checked on it via the app and saw there was a software update available, so I installed it then. At that point the car had 67 miles of range. After the update was complete, still 67 miles. Went to meet my...

    Model X 90kWh battery pack degradation

    My wife’s May 2016 X P90D with 30,500 miles, is now at 207 miles @ 90%. Not good.

    I counted 19 stalls when I was by there a couple of days ago.

    Premature Tire Life

    I have no doubt that he has a lead foot. I have my entire life. However, even on my S I can get a minimum of 10K miles out of my 21 inch tires. Also never gotten less than 10k on the 22 inch on the X. I have spoken with several people at the tire shop who looked at the car. They also looked at...

    Premature Tire Life

    No, this is some strange error with TMC. I’m uploading the pics but it’s inserting different pics. Those are not the pics I’ve uploaded! Even editing produces odd pics.

    Premature Tire Life

    I’ve driven every car I’ve ever had, hard. Never worn out tires like this. Couldn’t even find a mention of anything wearing this quickly, no matter how it was driven.

    Premature Tire Life

    My teenager blew a tire (19 inch rims) a couple of days ago in his Model 3. When it happened, it cracked the rim. The car has 3,900 miles on it and both rear tires were worn to the steel but only on the outside edges, which is where the tire failed. I hadn’t noticed it and obviously he hadn’t...

    Rear ended by uninsured driver.

    My wife was hit with very similar damage, perhaps not quite as bad, but in her X. It was 3 moths total, close to 2 of that in the shop. Parts were backordered, your hostage to whatever shop(s) are Tesla certified, etc. The total.....just over $22K. $4k of that were parts, the rest was labor...

    How many owners who reserved Model 3 in 2018 have configured already?

    After driving and liking the Model 3 that we picked up this past Monday morning, I reserved a second Model 3 on the evening of 2/13. Yesterday evening, about 24 hours later, I had the email to configure.

    Model 3 For A Teenager

    Thanks for all of the feedback everyone. I do realize it’s an expensive car to give a teen. When I was a kid in college, gas money was often tough to come by. As he’s off to college in a few months, he’ll have a good start and if he’s a resourceful college student, he can find the free charging...

    Model 3 For A Teenager

    Yesterday we picked up our Model 3, which is for our 17 year old son. My wife and I have an X and an S, so we don’t want him to be able to track us and/or have access to either of our cars but we want easy access to his car. I am guessing that this is not something that Tesla has given much, if...

    [Poll] For the Fence-Sitters... What's the #1 Change/Improvement That'd Get You To Buy A Model S?...

    All I want are real blind spot monitors. The ones in the mirrors, like every other car that has them.

    Tesla For Kids

    We have Model 3's reserved for both of our kids. However, as soon as Tesla updates the S, I'll be ordering a new one. Given that, I'm thinking about giving my oldest son my 2013 S. Anyone know of a way to limit the speed, besides valet mode? We also need to somehow be able to log in to see where...

    Possessed Drivers Seat

    For mine, it turned out to be a problem with the plastic cover that's on the side of the seat. It was moving which caused it to slightly bump the seat control buttons. They told me it was a common problem with the early models. I don't know what exactly caused it to be problematic after 4 1/2...

    Vented seats gone, alcantara dash gone, air suspension gone = new S interior coming

    I'm ready to hit the order button for a fully loaded P100DL S, but not before they introduce something new. I have a 2012 P85 S and the wife has a 2016 P90DL X. The blind spot monitors alone are so bad that I'll wait for those to be improved, if nothing else. We also have a 2010 E Class that's...

    3G to LTE Update?

    I had it done when it was first made available and it seemed like a noticeable difference then. Now, it's awful. If I have music streaming at 96kbps and load the map (on satellite view), it takes approximately 30 seconds to fill in. It's been that way for at least 6 months now and it sure seems...

    Possessed Drivers Seat

    i have a classic P85 built in late 2012. For the most part it's been trouble free. However, a couple of weeks ago I noticed that the driver power seat would make clicking sounds and move slightly by itself back and forth. This would happen mostly as I was leaving my neighborhood. More recently...

    Very loud fan noise from frunk area with AC on...

    This fan noise is ridiculous. It's so loud that it drowns out the sound from the lawn people. My wife said she had two people today that asked her if the car had a problem. It's not OK. When you're driving in an electric car and people 200 or 300 feet ahead turn and look, that's no good.

    South East U.S. Deliveries

    Haven't really had one DS in particular and it's changed several times on My Tesla. Currently listed as Michael but I haven't had any communication with him since the beginning of April when the DS was supposed to be Kyle.

    Estimated April-Early May delivery is now blank.

    VIN 30XX Confirmed on 12/10/15 P90DL with every option but the winter weather. I was told on April 11th the the car had gone into production. Yesterday I sent the DS an email asking for an update and was told the car is still in production and the email was almost word for word the same as the...

    Model X May Deliveries

    Also a similar VIN and told ours was in production a week or so ago. Also headed to South Florida, so hopefully they have saved a large shipments worth for us and it's actually true. I was not told it'd be here within 10 days though but I wasn't given any time frame at all. Edit to say...

    Navigation System Errors: nonsense routes!

    We were coming back from the Key's last week and hit the Marathon supercharger on the way back. Next stop, home in Boynton Beach. however, to get home the Nav wanted us to go past our house another 20 miles or so to the West Palm supercharger, charge there for 5 or 10 minutes and then go back...

    Audio: Any thoughts on the standard sound system?

    How can you tell the difference between the two? By looking that is. I ordered the premium but I have been less than impressed when comparing it to my E550 or XF. I am wondering if they made a mistake and installed the standard.

    Firmware 4.1 Issues

    No idea what the problem may be but we have had some of the same issues. We were told the power charger lights would go off but they're always on. The display is on most of the time. I know I have peeked out the garage door two or three hours after we've plugged it in and the dash display is...

    Not Going to Make 2012?

    I am P5,199. Answered with a yes as soon as I got the email. Had the delivery questionnaire a few days later and received the same 12/15-12/31 estimated delivery date. After that a few emails back and forth regarding the high power wall charger not being available before the car arrived and then...
