    Summon in new vehicles

    Pretty sure now - I have a new car delivered on the 27th Dec with no FSD. No summon available

    Summon in new vehicles

    I had to go look at the order document to find out how much - I shouldn't have :(. It cost $ 2,500 but the cost of the car without Ludicrous was $ 135K before taxes and destination charges!! Oh and it was also called "Autopliot Convenience Features"!!

    Summon in new vehicles

    Hmm not true for my P90D - I don't believe there was no enhanced Autopilot then (2016 - AP1 hardware) and it has basic summon and parallel parking

    Summon in new vehicles

    Eh - I am not complaining. I am just bummed. I consider myself a reasonable expert in ordering Tesla cars (have bought 5 of them) - just wasn't clear to me that there was a difference between Autopilot, Enhanced Autopilot and FSD. I clearly missed the change.

    Summon in new vehicles

    It definitely did - I got one of the P90D in 2016 - I can get a fully loaded car for that price now. But that is not the point - when I bought this new car, it said it included Autopilot and I paid for it - For me Autopilot always included basic summon (based on my old car which didn't have AP2...

    Summon in new vehicles

    With you on this - not paying $7k yet. It is kind of a bummer though that my old car that is almost four years old has features that the new car doesn’t

    Summon in new vehicles

    Just took delivery of a new long range Model S (no FSD) and I noticed that there is no Summon option in the mobile app (I see that in my model X and my other two model 3s). I don’t see Summon option in the car as well under Autopilot - has something changed? If we don’t buy FSD we don’t get even...

    One more parts saga for a minor fender bender

    Well it is a little bit more complicated than that!! I was rear ended but filed a claim with my own insurance and let them deal with the other insurance. I was willing to only pay for the labor to put the car together. The total damage is close to $ 5K and I am not paying that!! I don't blame...

    One more parts saga for a minor fender bender

    I tried pretty hard with ServiceKing (the body shop doing the work!!) to put the car back together (and even offered to pay for the labor) but no bueno!!

    One more parts saga for a minor fender bender

    I think with a little planning they can achieve both pretty easily. I can understand if this is a shortage for a month or quarter even - but to have these shortages over years only says that they are pretty incompetent when it comes to managing spare parts and haven't really done anything...

    One more parts saga for a minor fender bender

    So after almost five years of Tesla ownership with multiple cars (P85+. Model X P90D, Model 3) my faith in Tesla is finally shaken. My experience with the spare parts for a minor fender bender (rear ended on stop and go traffic) is frustrating to say the least. After almost six weeks in the...

    Waiting for body repair parts - any suggestions?

    @fixerny - I am in the same boat. This time no fauly of mine - rear ended and damaged rear gate - been in the shop for 5 weeks with no end in sight. can you let me know who you communicated with (senior folks) at Tesla to get this escalated and solved?

    Are there any TM3s out there without ANY issues?

    Vin # 15xx - delivered 4th Jan, 1400 miles - no issues

    you should check your account status. I ordered on 22nd dec, have a VIN and hopefully delivery in the next few days! still don’t have the invite email

    Tesla owner configurations begin

    Interestingly I have no invite email but being the obsessive guy that I am - checked my account and it was open. Already configured and got the thank you for your order email but no invite email yet! Tesla owner from Aug ‘13, early online reservation, Bay Area
  16. S

    [POLL] CA Current owners ONLY. Have you received your config invite yet?

    Mine is gray too - Very similar profile to yours. In fact live1.5 miles from the factory. But online reservation!! Not sure you can read much into all this

    May be they are prioritizing cold weather folks for AWD. My standard battery says early 2018 as well

    Sorry I was talking about the guys who ordered online vs stood in line at the store. Seems like you ordered at the store.

    Tesla owner configurations begin

    I don't believe any online folks have been invited to configure (other than if you were a roadster owner etc.) yet. I reserved online as soon it opened, a Tesla owner from 2013 and live 1.5 miles from the factory!! I would think I would be in the first wave of online config invitations but that...

    Model 3 for college kid?

    I am planning to get one for my son (though he will be a Senior not just starting). Most universities have good L2 charging capabilities so they can be a supplement to Supercharging. Of course, you probably won't see someone with experience with a Tesla at a college campus (because a Model S or...

    Placing a Fastrak transponder in the Model X frunk: will it work?

    Not true on the pay to play HOV areas - I use 237 every day and I don't have a transponder in the car. I have registered my license plate with fastrak and the only charges I get on my account are when I cross the bridges.

    Model X Self-presenting front door

    yep.. have tried both the reboots

    Model X Self-presenting front door

    Interesting - my self presenting stopped working this week as well (after the latest software update). It had worked flawlessly for more than a year and just stopped working this week. Guess I need to call the service guys.

    Range anxiety on loaner P90X loaner

    Also if the tires are new, the rolling resistance for the first 1,000 miles or so is much higher
  27. S

    Range anxiety on loaner P90X loaner

    With the P90D - the rated wh/mile is around 330 wh/mile (this may be higher with the 22"). You can never get 300 (unless you were hypermiling!!). It is potentially possible in the non perf versions. If you can get to 330 Wh/mile - then you can get the rated range

    Range anxiety on loaner P90X loaner

    Good thing I went with the 20" - For Model S they said 3% per this - Driving Range for the Model S Family. I am surprised that this goes to to 10-15% for Model X
  29. S

    Range anxiety on loaner P90X loaner

    10% penalty for 22" - seems very high to me! In my model S (had the original P85+) the penalty for the 21" was around 3-4%
  30. S

    Range anxiety on loaner P90X loaner

    403 Wh/mile seems high. I have a P90D and have done multiple trips to Socal from Norcal on I-5 - driving at speeds around 75 - 80 mph. I get around 370-380 Wh/ mile. I have the 20" wheels

    Model X service - couple of issues

    Yes I did. Yours is probably a better explanation than theirs (their reason - it is a heavy car!). My first concern was if there was anything wrong with the brake / suspension. Noise is something that I won't accept as normal but I am willing to give them time to fix it (either for my car or at...

    Model X service - couple of issues

    190 lbs / 86.3 kgs and a total of 20 K miles. It is too early on Saturday morning for me to figure out the psi and the number of hours that my butt stayed on the seat for those 20 K mileso_O

    Model X service - couple of issues

    Will be interesting to see if they actually fix it. When I complained they gave me an appointment and apparently tried to smooth the wrinkles out (how do they do that - take an Iron to the leather!!) but finally said that this is an issue that is with the manufacturer and that they are waiting...

    Noise from breaks?

    I posted about this a few days ago. I had the same problems but the service center said that it is normal (because X is a pretty heavy car) and apparently the noise from the suspension not the brake.

    Model X service - couple of issues

    Just got my P90D back after being in the shop for a few issues. Two issues were not fixed and I wanted to check and see if others are having the same or similar issues. 1. There is a reasonable size crinkle developing on the driver's seat bottom. Ultra White synthetic leather seat. Service...

    Experience with flat tire

    Tesla has a spare tire program on the S where when you have a blowout, they will send the tow truck guys who will replace your blown tire with a spare tire and then you can use a couple of days to fix the original tire and then return the spare to the service center. I had used it on my Model S...

    Experience with flat tire

    They do provide a towing service - need to be within 50 miles of a service center. I don't believe the OEM tires are runflat but I think there was a separate thread discussing the merits of runflats

    Experience with flat tire

    It seems like even Tesla didn't know what they were doing - they told me that this was not repairable!

    Experience with flat tire

    Interesting - both wheelworks and the service center said that it is not repairable!! And I definitely wasn't going to go around researching this stuff with a flat tire! Btw, the tire I have on is Michelin Latitude Sport 3.

    Experience with flat tire

    Not a good experience! Got a flat due to a screw on my front right tire (20") - ironically near the supercharger at the factory. Since I was able to fill up air and the tire wasn't losing pressure fast (about 3-5 psi in about 12 hours) I took it to Wheelworks for repair. There was no sidewall...

    Can I Tow?

    @K-MTG - I am in the same boat as you are. I didn't order the tow package on my P90D but seems to have all the necessary hardware (atleast the visible ones!). But the tow mode is actually visible for me on the screen - it only shows up when I put the car in park (I checked this a 3-4 weeks ago -...

    Service Center Scheduling

    When was this? I was told that their IT systems (always blame it on the IT Systems!!) would only allow them to pull the appropriate part and schedule the work in the floor only when the car shows up - atleast that is the excuse I heard from the Factory service center. Also, to be fair to them, I...

    Service Center Scheduling

    Well atleast they need to set expectations right. When I dropped my car off for the third row seat recall 10 days ago (at their request btw), I was told that they will need the car for a couple of days. 10 days later and I still have no idea when I will get the car back. They did give me a...

    Front passenger door doesn't open

    I have had this issue couple of times. First time when I took delivery a month ago - they said they needed to replace the latch and replaced it. Took an hr to fix. Happened again a week ago. Took it to the service center and they fixed it in about 5 mins. They said they reset the doors. I asked...

    What's your take on carbon fiber interior trim?

    I have the carbon fiber in my X - my opinion - with the ultra white seats, it really gives the car interior a high tech feel. I couldn't be happier.

    How many people got a "problem-free" Model X?

    2500 miles, VIN 676. Happy owner. Only two issues so far. 1. Passenger front door latch had issues. Wouldn't open from the outside. Fixed on the second day of ownership. 2. Faint scratch on the driver side FWD. Have a due bill on this and will get it fixed later.

    What's the avg Kwh/mile?

    I just did a 2,000 mile roundtrip to Phoenix via San Diego from the Bay area (already put on 2500 miles in about 10 days with the car). Averaged around 400 wh/mile (P90D with 20" wheels). I typically would do that trip in about 330 - 340 wh/mile on my P85+ (now traded in) with 21" tires. On...
