    No mention of Radar on Tesla Website

    I assume miniscule but does anyone know the power savings of not running radar? I assume if a future fsd version doesn't use radar they can turn it off permanently in firmware.

    Aventon Sinch E-bike fits perfectly in trunk

    Can you post a picture please? I can't quite picture how far it sticks up above the floor. I was thinking if I get my wife a foldable that I might fit both it and my Evelo Aroura limited in the back. Seats folded and parcel lid removed. Buying a rack and installing a hitch mount sounds like a...

    Loud groaning sound from front end

    No the wheels are oem. The noise doesn't sound like a pump it's more like a metal on metal groan. Could this have anything to do with the control arm fails covered extensively in other threads?

    Loud groaning sound from front end

    My car is 2 months new. I only noticed this the other day because it's not really noticeable unless outside the car or inside with windows down and radio off. If I turn the wheel to lock, in either direction, there is a loud groaning sound. I've noticed no handling issues or anything. Is this...

    Lifetime Average Wh/mi

    It was calm that day. Elevation didn't change a lot. I'm still slightly skeptical if the wh/mi will match the kwh i have to put back in. Has anyone done that experiment: start full, record wh/mi after a couple 100 miles then see if the kw need to return to full matches up?

    Lifetime Average Wh/mi

    Good point, the weather was around 75 and also I had no passenger.

    Lifetime Average Wh/mi

    I haven't had my car long (500 miles) but the wh/mi numbers seem far too good to be true. I need to actually fill it then drive x miles and fill again to verify I guess. Driving in autopilot auto nav today, running around 65 with Windows down and fan on low, no ac , got 198/mile. Crazy if true?

    Charger rate used in routing?

    I'm wondering if the power level of the supercharger is taken into account by the Tesla nav when routing a trip? Obviously a V3 charger is a lot faster and thus if the route went slightly out of it's way to hit one then it would be the faster path overall. Likewise it might stretch out a leg in...

    Starlink in place of 4g cell

    I wonder if future cars will use Starlink for connectivity? Could be a win-win with cheaper and higher speeds for consumer and the money going to Tesla Inc. If so, I kinda doubt existing cars could be retrofitted cost effectively but what do i know....

    2020.36.11

    As i reported in an S thread .11 now plays usb flac's of 192k. Now I didn't try before .11 as it's a brand new car but the assumption is that fixed the issue. Be interested if others have the same result.

    24.6.11 HD Audio Playback via USB Stick - Loading Error FLAC

    How is the order of rollout determined or is it random? I didn't sign up for anything that I recall. I'm really happy with the usb payback now, as the fidelity is excellent, with 2 exceptions: 1) if I don't unplug the wireless charging it un-mounts the drive periodically. I don't want to use...

    24.6.11 HD Audio Playback via USB Stick - Loading Error FLAC

    Ok, I am confused. I plugged in my M2 SSD drive and it played this audio file just fine: Format : FLAC Format/Info : Free Lossless Audio Codec Duration : 3 min 19 s Bit rate mode : Variable Bit rate : 5 542 kb/s Channel(s) : 2 channels Channel layout : L R Sampling rate : 192 kHz Bit depth ...

    Owners delivery stories, photos and first impressions

    Picked up my 2020 LR, FSD, white over cream yesterday. I went over it carefully using the inspection checklist. I found one minor issue where the cable connector from the door to the body wasn't plugged into it's hole in the body. Fixed that ourselves. Then I think I found a more major issue...

    24.6.11 HD Audio Playback via USB Stick - Loading Error FLAC

    Ok thanks for the info. I guess i'm reduced to BT until they fix it. I have no desire to convert my 1000's of songs to work around this BS. Has TWC ever attempted a social media blitz to get notice from Tesla exec's to seemingly simple yet intractable issues such as this. How would one go about...

    Wiki Decoding Tesla Model S VINs

    This nhtsa page seems to come up with the features my new car (S) has. Pretty nice: vpic.nhtsa.dot.gov. I wish it provided the date it came off the line though. How do i tell if it has the 250KW charge rate? I think I read this happened in June or July?

    Model S Booster Carseat Recommendations?

    Anyone have more current recommendations for the S? We really want one with a back and using LATCH. New car comes Thursday so I'm a bit late thinking about this now!

    24.6.11 HD Audio Playback via USB Stick - Loading Error FLAC

    So, to be clear, no one can play 24 bit flac right? My car comes Thursday and much of my audio is 24 bit. I guess I should be resigned that my 86k$ car lacks basic functionality that my damned Pacifica had. Lovely... Has there been a campaign organized to hit Tesla with this issue over social...

    hotels with L2 or above charging

    Does anyone know of an app which will look at your route and suggest stopover hotels which have L2 charging? When you arrive at a hotel with L2 how often is it actually not ICE'd or otherwise occupied?

    Advice on config for new LR

    Thanks guys. Does anyone have input on the effect of 17% lighter wheels? For protection I was thinking full ceramic coverage plus a partial clear bra: Ceramic Car Coating | Charlotte Auto Spa | Ceramic Pro | Xpel

    Advice on config for new LR

    I was going to get the slipstream too. I wonder if it's a supply issue and they'll be back? I was looking at ohm wheels. Does anyone have those in 19”. They claim their rolled forging makes them stronger and lighter. They are almost 5# less per wheel. 1- any comments on durability or ease of...

    Advice on config for new LR

    I'm going to wait until after battery day ” just in case” but will be ordering a S shortly after. A couple questions. Has anyone seen a midnight silver with cream interior? Íf so what's your opinion on that combination? I like the look of the carbon 19” wheels. Are there negatives with them...

    List of superchargers and rates charged

    Such a simple request but I cannot find a route planner or even a simple list of chargers and their fee structure. We're getting ready to purchase our first Tesla and my wife asked the simple question how much would it cost to make a trip to xxx. I can't answer it which is pretty ridiculous...
