    Free Camera Upgrade

    I picked mine up with black also. They came out and put the chrome covers on. They look fine. They would look a bit better if I didn't know they were covers lol. Black just didn't look good to me with all the other chrome.

    FSD Camera upgrade - charge?

    I received the camera upgrade on my 2017 MS 100D in December 2022 (I think that's right time, could have been earlier). No charge or special brackets. I'm unsure what bracket it could be. The pillar cameras mount right to back of glass. Fender cameras mount to fender. They installed the newer...

    Software update

    My 2017 MS updated Thursday night to 2023.44.30.14 It's just all over the place. For me, this was the larger icons (ABS,BRAKE) recall update. Only thing in the notes for it. It does depend on several variables, it must be a mess to keep track of. I have MCU2 all upgrades and FSD. There are...

    Steering yoke class action

    +1 for different SC if possible. I am a bit shocked they wouldn't replace it for you if it's peeling quite a bit. I know some might think I'm a bit out of touch saying I'd be shocked. My local SC here in Tulsa has always gone above and beyond for me while my car was still in warranty. I even...

    Which Tires are best?

    I put the Bridgestone Turanza EV tires on my 2017 MS 100d in May. I did not notice any downfall with them over the factory Goodyear tires. We just had a bit of snow and low temps, and I had no traction issues either. I'm not a stickler with the road noise so I can't claim they are not...

    Tesla infotainment screen nightmare

    At some point early on when they started offering the upgrade the reverse camera was poor in dark compared to MCU1. An update has come since then and corrected it. No worries there any longer. It's 100% worth doing. Of course, the money is an issue but it's almost like a new car having it be...

    Painful model S buying experience from tesla

    I bought my 2017 MS in November 2020 right before they stopped showing pictures. I would probably have taken more months to talk myself into it if I couldn't see it. Sorry to hear you had such a poor communication experience. Within 2 business days I was getting calls, emails and texts. I had...

    Problem with AP and CC in 2017 MS

    Yes, Service mode specifically tells me the same thing just about a different camera. Maybe the module is dying after all.

    Problem with AP and CC in 2017 MS

    I have a 2017 MS with FSD. Sometime after my cameras were upgraded (Free) to the newer version for FSD, I received a software update and that's when it all began for me. I've had my car in and out of SC for last year here and there trying to sort it out and they finally gave up. SC tried hard...

    Summons- constant press etc

    You are welcome. Always works best for me. I just logged in to upload a picture. I wasn't able to get it to come up in app last night since it was in garage plugged in.

    Ok I figured it out. You somehow don't understand I mean both at the same time.

    Aside from using a carpet cleaning machine, I think you did your best.

    Summons- constant press etc

    I find go to target never works well. I use come to me. I keep it set to continuous press. It's been a long time since it did something so bad, I let off and prayed it stopped in time, but it still feels safer. I use it when it's raining or real cold. Of course, also anytime I'm with someone...

    Take this poll

    My 2012 Chevy volt showed me both. I'm sure I've seen others say this on here but I'll say it again. Why on earth can we not just have both. Put the percentage in the battery and leave miles where it is. That's how it was done in the Volt. I use miles as that feels like it's doing a better job...

    Update 2023.26.8 broke regen braking on 2017 S

    I can confirm my car is no longer doing this after reboot also. I do keep my energy gauge up and it showed green and that regen was engaged even though nothing was actually happening, hence the coasting.

    Update 2023.26.8 broke regen braking on 2017 S

    I noticed the exact same thing. Thought I was crazy. I don't charge past 70% daily but still looked down. Took me a bit to get used to lack of regen again. I did a reboot and then didn't drive it again until tonight. I just took a short trip but did not notice it like I did. I'll report back...

    What should I do - 2012 Signature Red Model S

    Wow, your service center tech doesn't seem to even try. Maybe they are super busy and just in a crazy hurry. I too had scratched trim pieces after they upgraded my 2017 to MCU2. They also scratched the leather piece above the glove box. Took time to order and mobile repair came to swap the...

    Where to attach Good To Go sticker pass (Washington State) for 2022 model S?

    I placed mine where the manual said to place it. That's where there is an opening in the coating on the windshield. The instructions from the toll people are somewhat pointless IMHO. You could put it there and be in the middle of a lane change or anywhere in the lane and have that sticker all...

    Lane Departure Feature erratic after camera upgrade

    I had them upgraded in my 2017 MS mid-November and have not noticed any issues like that. It seems like the weird issue in which it would tell me my cameras were blinded at night is gone though.

    Couple of questions on 2017 Used Model S

    Hello, I bought my 2017 100d 11/2020 so I've had mine a bit now. Congrats on your new toy! 1) It's hard to hear in your file for me. My car is completely silent at those speeds. However, I have a slight rattle sometimes that took me forever to determine. It was the passenger door. If I reach...

    Tesla App Store Concept

    I thought it was going to be a more closed off app store. Just a new revenue stream for Tesla with apps by Tesla. I agree, if it's an app store like Apple or Google, it's most likely a horrible idea due to security risk. It's next to impossible to really lock it down without an unrealistic...

    The more things change, the more they stay the same...

    On a positive note. My 2017 with MCU2 seems to perform way better in transition from Netflix back or games back. The speed in which it closes and everything comes back is no longer this oh crap how long until I can move or is it going to crash. Hopefully that is not short lived. Browser is...

    Text Message Feature is Displaying Old Messages

    I have a 2017 model s. Didn't happen until I upgraded to MCU2. My phone is Android. It seems to come and go. Initially, it was EVERY message I would get an old one first. I believe it's been 4 months since I upgraded and it seems to slowly get better, I'd say now it's only about 15% of the...

    Refusing Delivery at Remote Pickup Location

    I bought mine 11/2020 and I'm in Tulsa. Had to go to Kansas city and get it. I spoke with the SC just a few weeks ago about that because I thought it was something to do with the Pandemic. I was told it is because of our dealership laws here in OK and they are working on getting a law change...

    Models S - 2017 100D or 2019 75D

    I do not believe there is anything else you would miss vs 2019. I would think the 300 mile trip would be a reason to lean harder towards the 100d. If your going to keep the car for long enough the bigger battery is going to continue being more important over the long run in my opinion...

    Trouble Printing Invoices from App on Android?

    Had the same issue. On my phone it saved to downloads but not with correct extension so I couldn't open it. Had to email it to myself and then add extension and open on the desktop.

    Spare Tire

    Tesla sells a kit that's essentially fix a flat and air compressor which is what I believe DerbyDave is talking about. I didn't see the need to buy it. Never used it in my Corvette, it came with it though at least. Escalade doesn't have a spare or a kit either. As stated above, there is quite...

    Blog Panasonic Sells Tesla Stake for $3.6B

    Exactly what I was thinking. Although I do not think it is a guarantee they are losing confidence if they sold all. Taxes, cash flow, many reason's why this may be a good time for them to sell but knowing they still have a solid stake sure feels better.

    Used Tesla Model S Delivery Experience!

    Nice car. I'm sure you will enjoy it! I picked up my 2017 100d in November 2020. Came from CA to MO in 2 weeks. Also a LONG two weeks LOL. Everything was quite smooth for me aside from no delivery in OK. Had to drive to MO and get it but it's fun to do a road trip in your new car. Note for any...

    Somebody upgrade MCU2 and lost free premium connectivity?

    May 2017 MCU2 upgrade along with HW3 because of FSD and Radio Module. Free Premium is still there. I also received XM update. Told me I had the antennas. That conflicts with some of what I read.

    Soon to be first time parent - Help with car seat!

    Congrats! We chose a base system with our daughter also. I did not own a Tesla in 2013 though and rocked the 2012 Volt. My volt has leather and our Escalade also has leather. The base is a great move, it makes moving between cars so much less of a hassle. The base makes one heck of an impression...

    Purchasing a used model S

    I bought my 2017 MS 100D in November Used from Tesla. I've not posted about it but I'll throw in my experience now. My car was listed in September just before they stopped posting pictures so I could still see pictures on ev-cpo. I was adamant about only picking a car I could see pictures for...

    How did this happen?

    Your musk say it was a miracle got me to reply LOL. No idea past maybe some hard core dirt on the rear sonic sensors? Clearly a glitch of some sort. Weird it sorted itself out without a reboot. Maybe something got wet that shouldn't have?

    Model S Body Kit

    Prior to owning my MS I would have liked this more. My 2017 has grown on me quite a bit and I don't see this as a worthy upgrade for me. For sure an added aggressive style though. Is that custom or just a rendering of a potential design?

    Congrats on the new car! I talked myself out of the performance model since getting a 2017+ at a price point similar to what you achieved seemed difficult.

    Purchased new MS a few months ago (2020), 1st rain wiper issue.

    Do you by chance have Auto Wipers turned on. I've found it isn't that great at triggering wipers sometimes as it's still in Beta. If you pick any of the intermittent modes nothing happens unless it detects rain. Which I've seen it NOT do with significant or moderate rain randomly. If you move...
