Just got a 2023 model 3 in black. Going to get windows tinted but can’t decide which 3M product to use. The installer said they can only do a single piece on the back window if I use 3M but they also said that it has a brownish hue. The IR supposedly doesn’t have the brown hie but they can only...

I’m looking to do an audio upgrade in my 2016 Model S with the base audio. Sound dampening, LH speaker upgrades and the NVX sub. Can someone recommend a location in the SF Bay Area, ideally the east bay, with competent installers? Thanks!

we have two garages side by side. no, not a '2 car garage' they have separate doors and entrances etc., It's a duplex but our family lives in the whole thing. Anyway, we have a model S already with a Gen 2 Wall charger and we are about to put a model 3 in the other garage. I'd prefer not to have...

@agtdDelirium this is incredible but I was so sad when I read you tuned it flat. Why not use the Harman curve? I'm trying to find someone whose done that.

Are they taking appointments on AP1 cars for MCU upgrade now? Website still says “coming soon”

A reviewer on amazon says the heatshield is bulky when rolled up and takes up a lot of room in the trunk. Does this bother anyone that has it?

Aaaaanf now I just got 2020.36. I’ll post the release notes tomorrow if no one else already has.

I can’t get any tune in stations to play since the update. Anyone else?

Updated yesterday. What am I missing on the suspension? it looks like they literally just changed it from buttons to a slider? is that the sum total of this update, window and door open notification and a unnecessary UI change?

Get the S. It’s a nicer car for the money and has more than enough cargo capacity. It’s the only car they make that had quality standards.

Following this thread. I have the exact same trim level and year. My driver's side window actually closes too much if that makes sense. When i'm on the freeway there is too much wind noise but if i tap the switch an infitesimal amount to get the window to come down about 1mm then the road noise...

shows us your Caraoke!

this is exactly right. I liked driving the iPace a lot but the range and charging network just caused too much concern. Why is it taking so long?

is there a different type of reset from the two scroll wheels and the two top buttons for the IC?

Still on 2020.20.1 after a few resets. Has anyone else gotten an update?

When i took delivery of my Used 90D there were two of the below parts floating around the frunk. one for the left side and one for the right side. I looked up the number and it looks like it's a: 1072913-00-B - FRONT FASCIA REINFORCE TAB, LEFT should i be concerned? do i need to put it back...

Just went from the SF Bay Area to Seattle, around the Olympic peninsula and back down 101. The S was a perfect toad trip car and the charging was great. I’d prefer the chargers to be closer to some restaurants other than Black Bear Diner but whatever. Even slept in the car one night with camp...

Can you share the article?

I actually don’t see the benefit to a newer model. Maybe because I have the facelift version with AP1 so I have things like fog lights and powered lift gate. But TACC and Autosteer are all I need. NOA doesn’t interest me. Also it sounds like anything after AP1 doesn’t have speed limit...

yeah. Sorry. I meant the software update not the MCU update.

And when will that update be rolled out more widely to AP1 cars? Been a while now and per Teslafi they don’t seem to be pushing it quickly.

Consumer Reports also rates them just above the Michelins

Tire Rack rates the Goodyear Eagle Exhilarate highly. Has anyone had experience with those?

right, that makes sense. where we are we have never had PSPS being in the middle of downtown Oakland. They do up in the hills but not down here.

thanks. this is helpful. I didn't realize that the rest of the house has to be on a separate plan than EVB so that doesn't make any sense. And a powerwall on EV2A with our current usage/production doesn't make a ton of sense either. $500/year of savings takes way too long for the powerwall to...

I need some help making sense of all this. The information here is specific to Northern California so I apologize for the specific nature of the questions. I currently have a small solar array from Tesla on the subscription plan and I am on the PG&E EV2-A rate plan with an electric vehicle that...

not sure what the debate is? are you considering EV-B? you need to have 2 meters for that and clearly not use any electricity during the day to make it back out.

Was wondering the same thing. Word is that the GPS ‘fix’ is required to be able to opt in to the MCU2 upgrade.

what about the GPS did 2020.20.12 fix? can we expect now that this fix is out that Tesla will start offering the MCU2 upgrade to AP1 cars?

i'm on the fence about doing this. i live in CA also and I don't feel like dealing with fixit tickets. what has been your experience?

Post refresh. Post refresh but still AP1. I’ve got the Pirelli Cinturato Strada Sport all season tires. Good? Bad? I suspect that I just need to slow down. I have a habit of setting cruise control at 14 over the limit which means on my trip to Southern California on I-5 I was at 84. I’ll try...

I’m new to this world and very confused about something. In my 2016 90D I’ve never seen anything averaging close to sub 300 wh/mi. I’m always over 300 and closer to 320 and that’s on a long trip with range mode on and chill acceleration and the suspension set to low always, 19” wheels too. What...

if they are still for sale I’d be up for it but I’m not clear which wheels they are

+1 for the solid roof. I specifically looked for one without the pano. I hate being hot and can’t imagine wanting mid-day direct sunlight bearing down on me when I’m driving. I too live in the west and expect the experience of sunny skies the majority of days throughout the year plays into this...

Slipstream 19”? Can I get a picture?

On the eMMC, I just bought the car used from Tesla so I have the additional 4 year warranty. Can i assume if it fails they will take care of it? Do they just replace it with the same product that will also eventually fail?

I was also told by the service center that my 2016 90D with AP1 would never be eligible. I'm holding out hope based on "scheduling soon" but idk. My MCU1 is fine right now but i can't imagine spending the money to fix it if it goes out to just replace with another MCU1 given that it "might" be...

Curious if you ever got the maintenance history and how? I’m in the Sam exposition and what to know about air filter replacement and AC service etc., Thanks!

having my 19" slipstream wheels powdercoated black and would like to get the lug nuts to match. However i only seem to be able to find covers for the newer, "open" lug nuts. Will these fit on the older lug nuts that are 'enclosed' or do i need to get all new lug nuts just to get them to be black...

It’s not clear to me if the basic installation of the IRO is always recording or only when the car is on? Can someone elaborate?

@tylercorsair apologies if this has already been covered but how do you define "drive efficiency"?

i'm sure you are right about that but then why would this guy be telling me otherwise after looking it up and how do i get someone at Tesla to give an informed answer and expected timeline?

i was just told by a mobile technician that my car will not ever be eligible for the upgrade. Face lift Model S 2016 90D HW2.5. So many mixed messages.

I am seriously considering it but I’m unclear where they are at. I was under the impression it was fully rolled out but I don’t have the option available to me. Are they still working their way through releasing it to all eligible vehicles?

Sorry to revive an old thread but any chance controllers work on an mcu1 now? Just bought a 2016 90D and my son is pretty into centipede and I’m afraid he’s going to break the scroll wheel.

Just wanted to update here. Car was delivered Friday. Per the delivery person on the phone it was supposed to be touchless and I would have 24 hours to let them know about any issues. Not exactly what happened. The guy that delivered it was masked and gloves but was definitely expecting me to...

in all seriousness then, what does these "sales advisors" DO exactly? I've literally gotten nothing valuable out of that person.

Definitely aware that most people that are posting about their experience are going to be negative and that's why i was asking for some positive stories. At this point, my 'sales advisor' didn't respond to any of my emails yesterday until i got an auto reply this morning that he is now OOO today...

I’m waiting delivery on a 2016 90D and in the process of getting my checklist prepared I’m only reading horror stories of thoroughly misrepresented cars and terrible customer service experiences and my anxiety is growing by the hour. Has anyone had a good experience that they can relate. Would...
