    (MXP) I cannot decide between black and cream interiors (out is no-go from the boss), is black monotonous?

    I too have been driving many cars with black interior including my previous MSLR. My MXP has white interior. I am SO HAPPY that I went with the white interior. I LOVE it. It is so beautiful. I will never go back to black.

    FSD 12.3 update for Model x

    Nope, here in NE. Still on FSD 11.x on my 2023 MXP.

    2023 X Plaid “Charging equipment not recognized” at 250kw station.

    Yeah, that is probably correct. Nevertheless, that is bad usability. If it is not applicable, it should not present that to the user. Anyway, it was not a fun experience. Between the 8hrs driving trip stretch and there are so many charging stations available. Almost every 30min there is one...

    2023 X Plaid “Charging equipment not recognized” at 250kw station.

    All these are at Tesla Supercharge. Correct, normally there is no user interface when charge at Supercharge. But you are wrong! When you encountered charge issue, the charge screen came up and provide the amp adjustment just like when you are changing at home. You can reduce the the amp at...

    2023 X Plaid “Charging equipment not recognized” at 250kw station.

    My 2023 Model X Plaid started to have charging issue which makes me nervous on the road trip. I first had the issue back in late 2023. The Tesla service replace the charge port. Unfortunately, the issue came back after a month or so. I never had this issue with my Model S. My observation: 8...

    Got rear-ended today

    Ouch! Very sorry to hear that. Yes, the rear quarter can be expensive. My previous S, someone backed into my S while parking at the charger port side. The damage was very small over the bumper and charter port. The S was in the shop for a month. Other side paid for the damage and it was $14k.

    Thoughts on Model X

    I think about the same. When I park my X on the street whether I am in downtown or not? If/when I have passenger, I usually instruct my passenger to get out from the other door, just to be on the safe side. But, I do this on any car that I had before, not just my model X. Really come down...

    Suspension Settings

    Same here, I pretty much at auto at all time. However, when I need extra comfort in the city I will set the hight to medium. That will give you a bit smoother ride while in auto.

    Gen 2 wall plug issue

    I am starting to see this very same error on my 23 MXP as well today for the first time at home. It also failed to charge at the supercharger as well. After I got home, I rebooted the car. So far I have not seen the issue anymore. Prior to that, I also noticed it failed to charge at...

    rusty brake rotors after washing car

    That is a normal thing with any car. It also happens on rainy day. Water and metal = rust. In some case, you will hear a loud noise when reversing after the rainy day. That is when the break is breaking free. You can simply apply/use break a little bit when driving around. I know, the...

    Visor cracked windshield

    Looking at the attached image made me look at mine XP. I looked at the base of the sun visor and see if can potentially cause the windshield to crack. The only thing that I can see could cause the windshield to crack is: while the sun visor is swing out off the rest location, perhaps the...

    Bug after latest software update (2023.44.30.1)

    Falcon Wing Door Concerns

    My 23 MXP had issue with FWD driver side where it will not closed all the way 1 out of 5 times on the first month of owning the vehicle. After some looking around, I did the calibration for the FWD that many people suggested. Once I did the calibration, I have not seen the issue any longer...

    6 Months of ownership

    Congrats! I also picked up my 2023 MXP the end of June. The same experience as you; the car has been excellent. I love and enjoy driving it on many road trips. I am working from home but still manage to put 11K miles on it since delivery :)

    Dent Question

    I had a small dent and only visible from angle view on the passenger side door. I got the body-shop to fix the dent which cost me $500. It's a little high for the small little dent for the job. They claimed, they need to remove the panel, etc... to un-dent it. From the way it looks on...

    How well does phone key work compared to the old key fob?

    I am coming from 20 MSLR with FOB to 23 MXP without FOB. The FOB is certainly more reliable with the MS. I never had any issue with the FOB, not once for the 3 years I had the MS other than replaced battery once. But, the car will tell you to replace it before it went dead. With the 23 MXP...

    Is this normal?

    Not sure what model year the one you are looking at? In my 2023 model year, I don’t see any weld spot any where in that proximity.

    Parking Assist Unavailable in brand new MX

    I think the park assist will be available after few days of driving. I also noticed that it will load the park assist data when you start the car. I don't remember exactly if it is every time or once a day. I didn't pay that much attention. I just drive the car and I saw the msg once in a while.

    6 days - that's how long the fob battery lasts

    I am thinking about getting the key fob for my 23 MXP and this looks like the newer model is behaving differently? I had my 21 MSLR for over three years before trading in for the 23 MXP. During that time of owning the MS, I only had to change the battery once. I guess, I will stick with...

    What outstanding issues to expect on a MX today?

    The door behaves the same minus you press the button to open the door instead of auto present.

    What outstanding issues to expect on a MX today?

    As cool as it is with auto-present, that is the very reason I disabled that feature in mine. It’s that exact situation come to mind when I came across that option :p. I am surprise that didn’t happen more often…. I supposed accident happened.

    What outstanding issues to expect on a MX today?

    To me, I like how the front door works the way it is. I think, the motor resistance is good to help prevent the door from sailing with the wind when open and smack into the car next to yours or other things. I have seen so many time in the parking lot where someone open the door and caught the...

    Walk up unlock/mirror un-fold - Only after button press possible?

    That is the very reason I set my car to exclude home. So, the car doesn't do anything when I am near by.

    My Tesla wall connector gen 3 keeps stopping

    I had that issue few years back. Tesla ended up replacing the with new unit and has been working fine since. You probably need a replacement. The workaround is to drop the current from 48A to say 32A or one level down. You will have to set your car to lower charing current or set the charger...

    MS or MX plaid

    It's really difficult decision. As much as I like the S more than the X, but I ended up switching from S to X. As other mentioned, it depends on your lifestyle. My decision in only by small different. X 50.5% and S 49.5%.

    Don't buy an X in a snowy climate

    I think, the original poster seems to agree that the MX is not having issue with snow. It is more of the sensors around the car when covered by ice. Again, I am totally agreed with that. But, it is not just Tesla. Every car with sensors have the same issue. It is because Tesla is heavily...

    Thinking to back out from my MXLR order after doing extensive readings here, thoughts?

    Guys, sorry to hear that. My wife on the other hand. I have to tell her to stay away from my MXP. She has the Mercedes AMG GLE. She wants to use my car every chance she can :) I do like drive her car every once in a while. As far as issues with different things with Tesla in general; yes...

    Don't buy an X in a snowy climate

    I have had the model S for over three years in New England weather. The MS has no issue going around in NE weather. But when it comes to rain and snow, all these wonderful sensors, camera, etc do not work well regardless of weather on my Model S. It's one of those thing that I believe FSD...

    Thinking to back out from my MXLR order after doing extensive readings here, thoughts?

    That can be tough. One of my friend faced the same issue where his wife didn't like the Model 3 as much. She hates every min of it. Mainly, she does not know how to operate it and it is not like a traditional car from what I heard. All in all, my friend ended up getting rid of the car and...

    Considering switching MSLR for MXP. Appreciate your thoughts, especially those that have gone MS -> MX.

    I am not trying to convince you or anything. My XP got 335 miles 100%. You indicated, you typically leave at 100% SoC on the S. With the 100miles each way and maybe few extra miles each way.. Say 250 miles round trip with the X. That will give you ~25% SoC with the X. I believe the MXLR...

    Considering switching MSLR for MXP. Appreciate your thoughts, especially those that have gone MS -> MX.

    I did the very exact thing. I went from 2020 MSLR(I really love this car) and I traded in for the 2023 MXP. Both the X and S are very good in its own way. I do want the X for the utility part of it. Do people still worry about range these days? There are so many supercharge stations. I just...

    I love my 2023 MXP that I picked up the end of June. I am coming from 2020 MSLR. Both S and MXP are not perfect; Yes, I did have few minor issues with MSLR and I loved my MSLR(almost did not want to trade it in :p). No real concern issue so far with my new MXP. and I will say no car is...

    Is the 2023 Model X suspension just not refined?

    I have to admit that my 2020 MS is like floating over on air when set to comfort. I typically set to comfort when driving in the city. Comfort is too soft on the highway on my MS. I usually set to auto or sport. Comparing that to my 2023 MXP, the comfort is not as floating on the air like...

    Perforated white seat- bad idea?

    I have the very same concern. But, after looking at many people that have white interior. It sounds like the white is very easy to work with. I had black on my previous MS. I don't have my MXP long enough. But, oh man... I love the white interior in my MXP.. It is so beautiful and I am very...

    MICHELIN CROSSCLIMATE 2 Real life experience

    I have the CC2 on my MS for over two years in NE winter. I really love it and will certainly get it again. I now have MXP which come with all season. I will see how well it handles NE weather. If anything else, I will replace them with CC2.

    thinking to get x plaid

    You can get up to $10k discount on existing inventory now. Unfortunately, they don't offer free SC at the moment. But, if you are not relying on SC that much. I think this is a good buy with current discount... I picked up my MXP the end of June promo with $7k discount and 6 years free SC :P

    Anyone switch from an SLR to and XLR? Year 21 or newer?

    I went from MSLR to MXP. Yes, the MS is much lower compare to MX. I do like the sitting position of the MS more than the MX. But, you can't really compare the two. They are totally different vehicle. The daily driving dynamic on MX is much fun as the MS. The only significant different for...

    Cabin Noise in Refresh Model X 2022

    I agreed, most of the noise is from the road. On different road surface, you will get different noise level. One is quieter than the other. That’s why I mentioned on the same road and highway on my comparison as reference point.

    Cabin Noise in Refresh Model X 2022

    The MS is on 19 with suspension set to auto and cooler temp 70+. The MXP is on 20 and the car is also set to comfort mode plus 80+ degree with this heat-wave that everyone is getting.

    Cabin Noise in Refresh Model X 2022

    I went from 2020 MS to 2023 MXP. Just pickup the MXP on 7/28 knowing/hearing that the new MXP supposes to be quiet. Here is my experience: I used my Apple watch to measured the noise level on my MS and MXP at around same speed and on the same highway. I found the 2023 MXP is ~5db quieter...

    Phantom stop on reverse?

    I always put my seatbelt on when driving. Now that you said that, I didn’t pay attention it might just be the case where I back the car out of the garage and did not have the seatbelt on. I will pay attention to that next time.

    Phantom stop on reverse?

    I have my MXP for two weeks now. I had experienced the phantom stop while reversing. The car just stopped while I am reversing out of the garage. I made three reverse attempts to get out if the garage. Last night on the street, it just stopped while backing up the car. I never had this...

    Has anyone actually successfully received 6 years of Supercharging for removing from existing vehicle/

    There should be no charge when used the supercharge station. I changed mine three days after the delivery date. There was no charge applied.
