    Model X LR and Plaid Brake Upgrade Now Available?

    Just thought I should check in with my experience with this upgrade from Tesla. I have a '22 MSP and had received the news about the brake upgrade. I scheduled it, and was told it was $2,700.00. I picked the car up today and it was done without charge. Zero. The details of the upgrade say: Pay...

    Yoke peeling

    I use the saved entry / exit position and have been very careful to not hit the yoke when entering or exiting in the months I've had the car. I sit pretty close so it's important for me to let the seat go back before getting out. Recently I had Tesla replace a defective tire and afterward I...

    I know that kind of pattern. That's not what I have, and you can see in the photo below. The left-most notch is what I believe is not supposed to be there. The one just to the right, is one of two shutters you can see if you pull up to a wall and view the pattern. The longer one, doesn't show up...

    The cars transitioned to the new lights months ago, though so far as I know, they don't do anything special yet. Well, mine is special. It has a significant notch in the left side pattern that Tesla says belongs there. Which isn't possible for them to know since they never saw it at night, when...

    It's too much work to go back and find my post on this issue, but in general, my iphone is in my back right pocket and very frequently didn't get the handles to present. It was suggested I carry the fob in my front pocket, which I now do and it's better, but I have to touch my handles about half...

    My wife's MY once stopped knowing it was Home suddenly. Checked everything, and the settings were all still set correctly. Reset the Home address, nothing fixed it. I also noticed the charging stats showed it was being charged at Other, not home since about the time this happened. It only gets...

    It doesn't. Tesla service said, "we see that from time to time, suggest you keep the fob in your front pocket". Which I had been doing. It's not bad. It's a nice fob. ;-)

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I have to use a fob because the car won't present the handles half the time with my phone in my back pocket. Unlike our Y, unless the handles present, you can't get in the car without touching the handle if it's stowed. Not having a fob for the Y is fine.

    Maybe autos are a zero sum game. Not much fluid in a Tesla, so it has to exist somewhere else.

    They will. You have to ask them to let you enter a second vehicle, which I did via text to the number that had initially texted me.

    That's insane mode. I'm more of an acceleration junkie, and you need less room in the Plaid to enjoy that than any car I've ever owned, by far.

    Sirius/XM app comes and goes

    Confirmed. It showed back up as a source after toggling it back on and off again. It's a little difficult to watch for it because the "up next" list comes on and replaces the "source" options in what appears to be a random amount of time or distance. It's so random I haven't been able to...

    Thanks. I'll be in it again today and will try that. I have toggled it on and off twice before so I'm not thinking doing it again will fix it, but will try and post an update.

    Sirius/XM app comes and goes

    I have a related problem. I just learned you could turn off some of the unused sources, and Sirius is turned off. Never the less, it doesn't stay off as a source. It comes back soon. No other deselected sources come back, only Sirius. I'm on 2022.16.1.2.

    When I requested a hold they said it was for 30 days. I wondered if they would release it at 30 days, but it was still on hold a couple days later when I requested the release. I was right on top of the cutover to the new lights so I was counting every day.

    I put mine on hold for the lights, but I wouldn't have for the tilt. It's just not that big a deal for me. I have 1% FOMO for it. But, if you're happy to wait, do it.

    Not that it was an option for me a couple months ago, my delivering agent was very hands-on for me and even helped me go over the fit, finish and completeness of the car. They fixed a couple paint things on it while I waited, and I *think* touchless, they will just drop it off for you.

    I know about this issue. That trim is held on with friction, no screws. You can push it down and see if it stays. It should unless it was tweaked because it was either taken off improperly, or wasn't formed perfectly. Both my front door trims were taken off during my wrap and both of them...
