    HomeLink Gate Query/Problem

    When I had problem with remote for garage, I called Tesla. I was told to hold the remote against the nose 6 inches to the left of the T. Lights flashed within seconds. Worked on both my old 2013 MS and my two week old new MS with Autopilot. Now both MS's can enter either garage slot.

    Supercharger - Newburgh, NY

    I was just there today for lunch. The electricians were working on the wiring. The original date to go live was Friday. Two of the charges maybe ready before the whole site. The tech things maybe two weeks. The bases were done wrong. His company is bidding on a NH location. He hears that...

    Is Regen suddenly weaker / delayed?

    Since 6.0 regen is much weaker. Going down hill with the accelerator off, I gain speed. I hate it! I want the old regen back!

    SuperBowl- WOW

    First and foremost I wish Tesla had a car ad just to show what a real car is and can do. Best safety, best awd, fastest sedan, best features, company paid charging for free and for life, and just super COOL. Seattle blew the game and gave it to the Pats. That being said. I thought the Pats had...

    All Discussion re: Tesla Motors Website & Forums

    I don't like the new supercharger site at all. They no longer tell the number of sites they have in the US. Superchargers is now weeks behind in reporting new sites.

    Am I the only one with recent Climate Control problems?

    I have had many complaints to the service center with nothing done. Last winter, plenty of heat - no problem. Summer is a different story. Vents turned off for the rear seats - no help. Temp set to 64 or 66 actual temp 75-77 by app. The sensor has to be bad. It's always worse on a sunny day. I...

    Falcon Wings - Must have them, will absolutely hate them

    I would have a reservation on the Model X, if the falcon doors were on the driver's and front passenger side. I think they are cool, like the door handles. As soon as my solar is turned on at my house (awaiting electric company approval) my car will be higher powered. I think that's cool too.

    Has anyone gotten an aux video/audio input into the display?

    You can only use one bluetooth device at a time. Example, you cannot use your phone and listen to a iPod mini at the same time. One of them must be disconnected.

    Air conditioner A/C doesnt blow cold

    My AC is horrid! AC is set at 67 for hours but inside 79 (that's what my app says). Outside it was 79. Yes I have Pano roof. I have no idea what the temp is in the back seat but it has to be much hotter. I've complained yet I'm told it's normal. I drove a 85+ and it was cold on a hot sunny...

    I just had my MS serviced by the Watertown, MA Service Center. On of the employees told me that there is a new super charger location on the Cape, Dennis MA. He said that they may have already broken ground on the site.

    I charged 4 times in the past week and a half at East Greenwich on my way back and forth from NY to Provincetown. We dined at Outback and Panera Bread both close at 10pm. All four times, I was the only Tesla charging. I saw in an AARP publication that outback gives a discount for AARP card. I...

    Parking at JFK or Boston airports

    Now that we have a SC at JFK, does anyone trust an airport location to park their beloved MS? If so where do you park? The same question applies for Boston airport. Do any of the Parking facilities have charging? In Boston I usually use Thrifty, the do not have charging. John

    New New England Supercharger Locations

    That's my route NY to Provincetown MA. If I take 95 because of traffic that can take more than an extra hour in an ice vehicle. Looks like Tesla doesn't want me to take my MS to the Cape. The last 40miles has no public charging. I generally put 30 thousand miles on my cars a year. Mostly trips...

    New England area owners/enthusiasts/employees dinner/meetup

    I'd love to join. However can't we postpone until the Sturbridge supercharger is up and running. Like arron.s I would need to charge at Natick Mall for 3 hours to do dinner. I live in Ptown and NY. 3 hours at a mall is more than my male mind can take.

Therefore, if the answer that the owner got...

    Tesla S - Daily Driver or Second Car?

    MS is my daily ride. When I go back and forth to NY, we use the Prius. That will change if the North East gets supercharges on my route. When that happens I be riding an additional 600mi a week to my weekly ride. I'm saving my old Prius to see how my MS does in snow on our hill. Some 4 wheelers...
