    Clunking when in Neutral--normal behavior?

    I have a service appointment scheduled and will update accordingly, but wanted to check in with the community to see if anyone else has had this issue or if it's normal behavior on the '22 Model S Plaid? I have no issues when driving, reversing, or when coasting in neutral at speed. However...

    2023 Holiday Update Imminent

    Thanks that’s very helpful. I’ve had FSD since the 10.3 days and never had an issue. Forums made it sound 1000x worse.

    2023 Holiday Update Imminent

    Is tesla actually improving driver awareness or just purely increasing the nag? It was discovered on a few prior updates that if your hand/arm was near the steering wheel the cabin camera would let it go, but now it seems the cabin camera won't allow but the quickest glances from the road...

    2023 Holiday Update Imminent

    Anecdotally, from a few different accounts I've heard, Tesla seems to call you if your airbags deploy to see if you need emergency assistance.

    Tesla replaced my yoke with an updated version today. 👌

    I just had my yoke replaced and part number seems to have been updated again from OP. I can confirm the texture is slightly more grippier and the yoke feels ever so slightly thicker. The haptic feedback and clicks are very solid and provide a firm click unlike original yoke which was mushy and...

    Supercharger - Culver City, CA - Green Valley CIrcle (permit, 12 stalls)

    Interesting to see if that parking fee changes. Tesla is very adverse to landlords charging for parking at SC's now. I was in discussions with them on getting a large SC installed at a property and they wanted us to make an exception on the parking fees for Tesla's that were charging. Impossible...

    Elon: One-time FSD transfers for purchases in Q3

    No mentioned of that or any details for that matter. We'll have to wait and see what this deal looks like because it can affect many things e.g. are you req'd to trade in the car to tesla?

    FSD Beta on 2023.12.* - when?

    Sort of...been in FSD since v10.2(?) but this is a new car. I had 10.69.x on this car then it updated to non-FSD branch because service center toggled FSD off. Now I'm back on. The murmurs on twitter seem to indicate this is FSD 11.3.6 rewritten onto a new software branch with FSD code fully...

    FSD Beta on 2023.12.* - when?

    Downloading 2023.12.10 right now which is marked as an FSD build. But interestingly enough it’s still FSD V11.3.6. Is this a catch-up release for the rest of the fleet to catch up to v11.3.6? 2022.45.15 was the last known version for FSD v11.3.6.

    Plaid Vibration around 38-42MPH....

    What month build is your Plaid? I have a April build 2022 and I don't get the persistent vibrations after the initial cold start, though it may be too early. I'll check back in if vibration develops again once I put some more miles on the car post-service.

    Plaid Vibration around 38-42MPH....

    HALFSHAFT ASSY, FR, LEFT HAND (1420113-00-B) HALFSHAFT ASSY, FR, RIGHT HAND (1420119-00-B) Yes that's correct. I don't recall if it was here or Reddit but others have said the newer Model S's with the newly engineered half shafts have vibration but only once at cold start. Once it "warms up"...

    Plaid Vibration around 38-42MPH....

    I got them replaced about 2 weeks ago and have put almost 700 miles through it with hard accelerations and speeds in the mid 100's. Lost 1 mm of tread since the replacement 🥲. I only drive the car in low suspension FWIW. Wondering if the N2itive links are necessary with the supposed new "fixed"...

    Plaid Vibration around 38-42MPH....

    I've also had my 2022 MS Plaid front half shafts replaced. I brought up the vibration issue and the lead tech went from a drive with me. Spent probably 10 minutes driving around on difference terrain. He felt the vibration between the 35-45 MPH zone when moderately accelerating but couldn't...

    Center Console Lid — Sharp underside by design or missing trim piece?

    On a 2022 MS Plaid, I had the center console lid replaced under warranty due to it not operating correctly. Shortly after replacement, I had top of my knuckles on my fingers cut due to sharp edges underneath the console lid. I took a picture of it and saw what looks like broken clips. The...

    TIL: Plaid acceleration mode continually conditions battery and affects HVAC?

    I understand that, but didn’t think the car would constantly be conditioning the battery when insane/plaid mode is selected and you’re not smashing the accelerator. Active conditioning can be heard on track and drag mode but there’s no audible or visual indication of such conditioning on a...

    TIL: Plaid acceleration mode continually conditions battery and affects HVAC?

    I was looking at the owners manual for something and this piece about acceleration mode and energy consumption/efficiency caught my eye. I didn't know Plaid mode put the car into a different state. I've always kept acceleration mode on Plaid and wondered why even in stop-and-go traffic I cannot...

    Chademo adapter compatibility to CCS compatible Model 3?

    My 2022 Model S Plaid and another 2021 Model S Plaid I’ve driven both have not been able to connect by Chademo. Both cars are CCS enabled but the Chademo sessions disconnect as soon as the charging sessions start. Other people have been using the station just fine and my Model 3 worked fine...

    FYI: Tesla is physically disconnecting radar from 2021-2022 Plaid

    I know in the beginning when Tesla was switching FSD Beta users to Tesla Vision there was some bug Greentheonly pointed out. I wonder if it's related to that? The Tesla Vision capable software branches would prevent Radar modules from booting up in radar equipped cars, but if the radar does...

    2 Teslas 2 different premiums

    Must be their backend system marking anything with a 20" wheels to be the performance model. I would send them your order agreement showing that is indeed a long range. But also it could be gender risk profile differences with the MY for the primary male driver having higher premiums?....which...

    2023 Plaid - Booming noise

    Just listened to it with 64 audio U12T's which are very accurate on resolution and detail so it's like basically being inside the car with you. I just had a 2021 plaid on loan and while it did have some boominess at times it was nothing like what you're experiencing. Any response from service...

    Beware of deceitful "FSD" on used cars

    Word of caution for those that are looking at used Teslas on external sources and dealerships. I've noticed that quite a number of used car dealers portray the car as having the FSD software package but if you look at the the details in the "Software" section of the car menu the car DOES NOT...

    Tesla complaint. Switching back to State Farm

    I've considered Tesla vs State Farm but have chosen to stick it Tesla even though State Farm would offer a slight discount. Mainly because State Farm could not confirm the use of new OEM parts during repair and availability to use Tesla's collision centers. Unfortunately I totaled my car after...

    4 of 5 FSD Beta disengagement strikes!

    To provide an update, I think they changed something on the back end. The "apply turning force" no longer results in a strikeout after 3 messages. I had a long drive on the freeway with probably 10 mile stretch of construction barriers, cones, and redrawn lines. I had 7 of those warnings in a...

    I've had my hand on the wheel resting at the bottom when I got a warning that a "nag defeat device was detected". I've noticed the nags get really bad when traveling through construction zones on the freeway or when there are a lot of cones placed e.g. freeway segments where lanes were...
