Does anyone make a kit or bulbs to change the yellow map lights overhead to white or light blue? My 2013 P85+ seemed to have a bluer hue to them, while the newer ones seem to have yellow interior map lights. I checked the usual suspects (Abstract Ocean, T Sportline, and EvAnnex) but didn't see...

Good morning, Recently I noticed my MCU screen went black, took it to SC, they did a reset, which cleared all settings, but brought the MCU back to life. Since then, I’ve noticed my instrument cluster is much slower to load than previously. Now, I have to wait 15-20 seconds for the cluster to...

I’ve been toying with the idea of ordering a new S to replace my 2013 P85+ and this week I’ve seen the delivery estimate change from 1-3 weeks to 8-12 weeks tonight. Is this a sign of an imminent upgrade forthcoming? I’m programmed to seeing delivery estimates slip and there being a new...

I’ve been noticing every day when I get in my car, the temperature (set to HI in the winter) is still maintained, but the directional setting for air flow is changed to the lower (towards the feet) direction instead of the towards the face setting that I prefer. Also, the toggle for A/C is on...

I got in a minor accident in my Model S just a few minutes ago where my front bumper and hood made contact with a crossover in front of me. My front bumper and hood will need replacement, and I am thinking of updating it to the 2016 refresh look now that the parts will need replacement anyway...

My wife and I are flying to New York next week and are planning to go to the Hamptons while we are there for 2 days. When we travel I usually use SilverCar, but since there is not one in NY, I'm wondering if anyone here has a lead on renting a Model S while I'm there. I have tried GetAround...

I'm headed back to my hometown for the weekend, and I'd really love to drive a Model S as I miss mine when I'm out of town. I usually rent one from Enterprise, but they're already out for the weekend, so I was wondering if anyone has a lead on where I can rent a Model S for this weekend?

Just wondering if anyone has parked their Model S at the Long Beach Pier for a Carnival Cruise? I see there's a blink station .2 miles away and a 120v outlet in the parking garage .1 miles away so should be good with the 120v for the 3 days. I'm guessing it will charge at 6+ miles per hour...

I love my S. I've had it about a year now, love everything about it. I came from driving ultra-high performance sports cars so naturally I miss the cornering, and tightness of a small sports car. I've yet to drive the Roadster since there are so few in Vegas, but I'm curious to know if anyone...

As I posted earlier, I'll be attending the Eminem / Rihanna concert tonight with my wife, who has to get back to Vegas tonight after the concert. My goal is to find the fastest route out of the immediate area to catch the freeway heading towards Barstow. I spoke to a friend who attended the...

Hello All, My wife and I will be in Pasadena this Friday evening from about 6:30pm - 10:30pm probably attending a concert at the Rose Bowl. I am looking for a place to charge during the concert, (not a problem to pay for use) and I always love meeting fellow Tesla owners, so I was wondering...

I'd like to compile a list of all of the chargers at hotels, so that we can all rest a bit easier knowing that when we want to go to say, San Diego, we know where we can charge, since there's no Supercharger there yet or not along the way, yada yada. I found a link to one that is, perhaps...

I just spoke to Mario @ MAD Detailing regarding the group buy prospect that I discussed with some of you recently. He said the average person has spent $1800-$2000 on the OptiCoat, plus everything that goes along with making the car look flawless. What we agreed upon was minimum 10+ cars in...

I went to a friend's house for dinner, first time with my Model S. He wasn't so hot on all-electric and had the same perception I had about electric cars being boring to drive and missing the exhaust note of ICE cars. He's got an F10 M5 and a Range Rover for the wife, long story short they...

I was just wondering, has anyone has taken their Model S to Rocky Point, Mexico on a road trip? It is about 2-3 hours south of Tucson. I was thinking the Gila Benz, AZ supercharger would be closest. I'm not so much worried about the range as I am about safety, especially in a luxury car...

I'm curious and perhaps a bit jaded on this fact. I've always changed out my cars between 1-3 years of getting them, and I've had my Tesla for almost a year now and I have no itch of getting a new car. Obviously the only route I would go is Tesla if I did buy a new car, but I feel that my P85+...

Toyota CEO Jim Lentz: We're betting big on fuel cell cars - Fortune Tech Now that Tesla has stopped supplying Toyota with batteries, it seems that Toyota's focus has shifted.

Fisker Owner Vows to Topple Tesla Competition is a good thing IMO, will keep Tesla on their toes. (Posted from my iPhone)

Hello All, I have a business idea and I believe I'm in need of a software developer. Sure, I could find one elsewhere, but I know there's quite a few of them here, and I'd prefer to deal with someone in the Tesla community versus some random. So if you are a software developer feel free to PM...

I usually park in a specific space at my office parking lot (which doesn't have a parking curb), but yesterday the water delivery guy was blocking me so I parked elsewhere for the time being. Long story short, I got some work done on my car by a vendor, and they parked it back where I had...

So last night I went to church to go pray arrived at 6:55pm, went inside right at 7pm, came out at 7:30pm on the nose to find that my passenger front window had been smashed and my wife's iPhone stolen. I called the Las Vegas Metro Police Department, because I tracked the phone and also to...

I check the Tesla supercharger map everyday and I noticed today there were 25 instead of 24 stations, perhaps one of the CT locations was the new one. I never know the newest location, it's always a guessing game for me. Can we have a running list of supercharger locations here as a sticky so...

My wife and I went to Laguna Niguel for a couple of days last week just to get away, I had emailed hotel concierge about a charger at the hotel, but they informed me there wasn't one on site and directed me to a ChargePoint location nearby. Anyhow, when we got to the hotel, I realized I forgot...

I was just browsing the new S-Class on MB's website, looked a like Tesla-ish to me. What do you think?

So, for the last three weeks or so since I've had my car, I've noticed that when I start it up, the first 90 seconds or so, there's a loud whirring sound. I called the service center and they said it's normal and most ICE cars do it, we just don't hear it because it's part of normal engine...

I noticed yesterday there were only 16 chargers in operation, today there are 17 listed. I think the change was the addition of a supercharger in Fremont, CA at the Tesla Factory. Can anyone confirm? I've been checking the website often, since it says there will be 27 charging stations by summer...

As I posted last week, the wife and I went to Portland from Vegas (where we live) this past weekend to sign our docs and finalize our vehicle. I heard about TeslaTrips.com from member Tander here on TMC forums. I spoke to Chase, the proprietor of TeslaTrips.com, and from the gate he was as...

My wife and I are traveling to Portland, OR this Saturday to sign our docs for our upcoming Model S, we're very excited. We're in Portland for less than 24 hours, we land at 6:30pm on Saturday 6/13 and leave at 5:30pm the next day Sunday 6/14. Neither of us have been to Portland before so I...

Does anyone know where the LV supercharger will be located yet?
