I've owned 3 Teslas and am very familiar with "within spec". However, this pic is of one of the best aligned I've seen. Every Highland I've seen (with very few exceptions) has much greater misalignment than this. I don't know if the door itself is misaligned or it's a defective door card but if...

For Highland owners who took delivery and had poor door/dash alignment, was Tesla willing/able to repair?

Has anyone who ordered the 19” wheels driven a Highland with them vs the 18”? Like the look but my 2020 with the 19s was the hardest riding vehicle I’ve ever owned.

$2500 increase in 2 weeks?

You can get the $7500 credit on the Highland SR and LR now. Just lease.

Yeah, my 2018 M3 and 22 MY had it. On the right side where the map displays, there was a ribbon across the bottom that showed the currently playing song and if you expanded it, it grew to show favorite and recent stations so I could quickly tap them like traditional radio presets. Do you now...

Any current Tesla owners with parking sensors concerned with taking delivery before a front camera is available? The more videos I see demonstrating Tesla Vision are starting to make me nervous - especially because I park in the garage and in tight parking spaces. 😟

On my previous Teslas, I could see most of the map with a menu on the bottom showing recent audio channels. Went to check out the Highland yesterday and for the life of me, couldn’t find a way for that smaller menu to display while still seeing the map. Is that no longer available?

Is that a reflection or is there a light in the vents too?

I really hope this can be fixed because again, they all looked like this… some higher than the dash, some lower.

If the light is set to auto, it’s dim during the day compared to setting it to ON I found.

I’m going to wait and see how the first Fremont owners fare. It’s such a hyped feature and designed to be straight and continuous. You can tell it’s the panel because on the passenger side of the cars I examined there is an even gap where the dash meets the door panel by the mirror on the...

The door panel strip protrudes too far so from the drivers seat the lights are pretty badly misaligned. You can see it here a little on the passenger side (this one isn’t as bad). I’ll post more pics tomorrow.

Some advice for us folks waiting on the Highland. I’ve been in 9 of them now and every one of them had an issue with the door lighting strip where it meets the dash strip. The door was aligned really well so might be an issue with the door panel itself on these early builds. It’s one of those...

So, if I order a 2024 M3 which has no sensors, there's no summon and auto park features if I'm reading this correctly. Then how do they get away with listing the features on the ordering website under the $6k Enhanced Autopilot option? Am I missing something here?

Up til now, the 19" wheel upgrade resulted in a really pounding ride over the 18". Now that the suspension in the Highland has been improved and there are new tires, do you think will the 19"will still be as punishing?

I've been able to identify the following upgrades you get with the LR over the STD (beyond the obvious - range/performance/RWD-AWD): Alcantara vs fabric door panels. Additional speakers. Am I missing anything?

No difference in white interior between models. You're paying for the upgrade. The white door panel is the same material as the seat material, not white Alcantara. The white seats I've had discolor quickly - particularly if you wear jeans - but cleaning them wasn't too difficult. However, the...

I felt the difference in steering weights through the settings were better dialed in. In the pre-facelift, I'd keep it in comfort mode. In the 2024, it felt more over-assisted vs numb. In other words, comfort can be steered with very light resistance but you could still feel the road. Standard...

You'd think that but honestly, it's very easy to get used to. My test ride was about 20 mins and wipers, flashers, signals were all pretty straightforward by the end of the ride. One thing that made the turn signals easy to adapt to is that the R signal button is further to the right, so easy to...

I'm going to disagree with you here. They had a brand new 2023 LR as well and I drove them back-to-back (both with 18" wheels). The difference in "quiet" is not subtle. There is far less tire and wind noise, and you can only hear the front motor if you floor it... in the 2023 you could hear with...

Drove the LR Highland at the Fremont Factory yesterday and there are a LOT of changes that the reviewers didn’t mention. All new speaker system in different locations, all buttons - including the door releases - are solid state with haptic feedback, the frunk area is completely redesigned with...

Looks like they may need to remove beta from all vehicles. CNBC just announced the recall

We’re all still waiting on the front door panels with the white or wood trim used everywhere else in the world.

Won't know for sure until they remove the bumper and get underneath but initial thoughts are it needs new bumper, hatch, straightened area between bumper system and trunk well.

Also has a thicker power/regen line up top.

Forward collision warnings. I live in a neighborhood where the cars park on the street and it's constantly going off destroying my score.

I gave up on waiting for FSD Beta. Been trying since this began but the constant (false) early collision and lane departure warnings keep destroying my score. And driving like an old lady from Pasadena in a Performance just to get a beta simply isn't worth the effort.

Probably. I mean, to drive a Tesla, you need excellent credit/finances. The majority of sales are in very liberal-minded, forward-thinking, urban areas of the world where fossil fuel is looked down on and high-tech along with the environment are valued. All that said, I think the left has a...

I've been able to separate Musk's personal opinions from my love of Tesla for a LONG time. But honestly, each time he opens his mouth lately, it's getting more difficult to do. And it's not because I either agree or disagree with him, but rather, his poor decision quality when it comes to what...

So, the safety score appears to have been updated since yesterday. There used to be a slew of scoring factors but they have been reduced to just 3: Aggressive Turning, Hard Braking, and Forced Autopilot Disengagements. My frontal collision alert keeps ruining my score just driving down my street...

I think this is actually by design. My drivers arm can't be lowered anymore as the tip of the blade is at the very bottom of the windshield. I agree, they moved to an arched arm on this side with a center sprayer that's always visible.

So, just got 2022.4.5.17 and it states: The range display in your vehicle is undergoing calibration. Until calibrated, displayed range may under or overestimate compared to distance driven. To improve accuracy, charge to 100% and wait until the charge port LED turns solid green, indicating a...

I'm on 2022.4.5.3 which is newer, no?

Unless you sell privately to a Tesla fan, I would forget about recouping the paint protection and boost. Also, the $10k people pay for FSD doesn’t equate to an additional $10k back when selling. My 2020 white with tow/white interior/boost was $52k new and just sold it to a new-car dealer for...

SOLD!

I have both in my driveway right now and it’s VERY close. Off the line they feel about the same. The Performance pulls for maybe a little bit longer.

Didn’t order because the website says those parts aren’t compatible with any of my vehicles.

I have 2020 and 2022 MYs and the mud flaps, center console drawers, and rear hatch screen all day not compatible with any of my cars.

They show about the same yearly cost regardless of plan.

I had SolarCity installed when we had one plug-in hybrid. Now we have 2 EVs (Model Y and Niro EV) and my true-up bill is almost $2000. I’m on the E1 plan with PGE. is There a better plan I should select?

One thing that drives me bonkers is knowing what is and isn‘t selected or turned on. Take things like the seat warmers and radio favorites. Light grey is off, a little darker grey is on. How about grey is off and blue is on. Another one is how buttons/icons don’t show the current state but...

How does a steering wheel self-center? To align a steering wheel, you do a four wheel alignment and if the wheel is off-center, both front tie rods get turned equally to center the wheel. If you watch YouTube videos of alignments at car factories, they lock the centered steering wheels in place...

And 2 more changes: Folding the rear seats back into position is VERY easy on the 2022. My 10 yo can do it easily with one hand. On the 2020 they felt like they weighed 200 pounds each. The second row outer seatbelts (and possibly the seat back cushions) have been redesigned so when unbuckled...

Found another change that's VERY obvious when you get in the 2022 vs the 2020: The roof and hatch glass are tinted MUCH darker in the 2022.

My 2019 M3, 2020 MY and 2022 MY all had steering wheels that were not centered even though the car tracked perfectly down the road so you're not alone. I brought it back and they said they've seen a lot of this and that they corrected it. Nope... now it's off in the opposite direction. So now...

I found more differences: Hood baffle (large pad on underside) went from hard plastic to a much softer material and compresses where it contacts the hood. Might be why the frunk opens/closes much easier. Steering column plastic shroud redesigned eliminating the creaking and clicking when...
