I installed a Tesla wall connect in 3 different detached garages at two houses 300 miles apart, one extremely rural. I had to run a 60 amp line out to each garage and a separate electrical panel for the two locations. the electrician bill for each was about $1000 but if felt it was absolutely...

I resolved that issue. Thanks for the help. Onward!

I just went into controls and it does not let me select FSD whereas before I could select fsd beta immediate or regular download. It now has one click auto steer which I don’t know what that does. I bought FSD a year ago when I bought the car. What’s going on? I’m confused.

Previous version did not have the following error. Need to fix. the car comes to a full, dead stop at ANY light, red or green. Particularly annoying when doing 65 mph ob county road with not another car anywhere and light is green in my direction the the car rapidly decelerates to a dead stop...

I do not use exchange. Or outlook or Microsoft. Apple user.

I also have the problem with contact appearing /not responding in navigation. This is my most frequent contact. I have only one Tesla MX and am the only driver. The Bluetooth suddenly shows a Tesla connection possible with the code name of my car with an android connection locked but I am on...

Update. Front flaps from Tesla have been fine. No issues on dirt roads, interstates, parking lots, or steep V-shaped driveway where I raise the suspension. Very rarely sense the mud flaps scrapping when coming in at an angle.

my funk opened spontaneously during the software update this morning. MX 2022 locked in the garage. Weird.

You next challenge is to visit the State Parks in each state

I have the Tesla tire inflator but haven’t really looked at it. I’ll have to do that now, rather than in a rainstorm or on some deserted road in nowhere or along an 8 lane interstate during rush hour.I think I could manage to add air to get me somewhere or in cell range.

Can an old woman, fit but with weak wrists, fairly handy and self reliant, use a tire plug repair? Seems like you need a like of strength to insert plug…..

So how to turn or a Birds Eye view? I can’t see where the hood end and always misjudge in pulling into a parking space w no car in front of my space. Actually, I can’t see Any of the hood of the car MX 2022 FSD beta. I also pull in crooked a lot because I’m guessing where the front of the car is...

My phantom braking occurs CES are not heat related, mirage related, or shadow on road related, and occur in chill mode (only one I’ve ever used), in FSDb, in TACC and in the absence of any other car for miles in any direction. Sometimes a hill is involved but will not occur every time I drive...

I tried twice from home to make an appointment for mobile service and got a message that the service doesn’t work “connection fail unknown error” this now has a third time away from home over cellular. Had help me if this had happened on the highway out in Nebraska. What is it “out of luck”? I...

I’m having the same or similar issueMX 2022 v 2023.7.5. its like heat lightning on the screen. rapid intermittent flashing. Mine has been always white lightning, as frequent as every 30 seconds for 5 min or so, then fine for awhile, then starts again. Every drive, with or without cruise control...

Yes, I figured commercial ,such as superchargers, rate would not be the same as residential. Does show how much cheaper it is to charge at home.

Well, I’m having to charge at lusk in 2 weeks. Absolutely necessary charge to make it back to Valentine vis Hwy 20 To home charger. hope all works well or I am in deep trouble.

I recently looked up lincoln electric costs for residential and it’s basically 5 cents or 8 cents depending on season per kw.

I had that message when driving into an area in north-central Nebraska where there are no chargers except a few campgrounds for over 100 miles in any direction. Fortunately, I have a house with a charger out in the middle of nowhere. The message disappeared after I charged at home.

FSD seems not to register a white speed sign when exiting interstate. We have signs that can make exit speeds need to drop from 75 mph to 40 or even 25 mph. Requires breaking which throws it out of FSD

I learned after the fact the the charge for electricity varies not only with the DC but also with how long you charge. X for first 15 min y for next 5 min and z for remaining time, increasing substantially. Because of lack of ANY charging infrastructure other than campgrounds for 200 miles to my...

For me, it’s how often (never) do I care about going really fast a second or two faster? Are the dollars worth it for momentary thrills, if that thrills you. You you need carbon fiber dashboard?

Nope. Map on that route had been used at least 8 times in past 7 months. It’s part of a 305 mile one way trip (610 round trip) I take monthly. Speed limit was 65 and the car was maintaining that until the sudden phantom braking.

Also one phantom brake the car went from 65 mph to 5 mph very very quickly before recovering with help from my foot on the accelerator after it reached 5 mph. No one else was around so I could just let it keep breaking. Totally weird. And scary. Overall, I like all the driver assist modes but...

Nope. Long way from any mirages.

thank you. maybe the traffic density part is why I had so much phantom braking In the empty, wild open spaces. maybe not.

To avoid the St. Louis mess, unless you want to see St. Lous, from Tenn. take northern route from Hannibal (huck Finn etc.) Mo to St. Joseph Mo. Rolling hills, farms, not as much traffic. Fully charge In Hannibal and then in St, Joe. Drop down to KC from St. Joe. And onward. My route last Oct.

There is a Native American restaurant in Minneapolis. All foods prior to colonization. Maple syrup vs regular sugar. Etc. Chef is Native. Nominated for James Beard award. I’ll try to find the name but maybe you can Google for it.

Zero traffic except me in either direction straight flat 2 lane well marked

Does FSD rely on internet? not a tech person. Frequently on state highways in high rolling hills Where internet drops in and out. Also problem yesterday with phantom braking 4X in 306 miles with alsolutely nothing and no other cars. Good lane markings, etc.

Phantom braking. Hwy 2 Nebraska. Two lanes, well marked sides and center line. Flat. No hills, diverging lanes, bridges, etc. straight road. 4 times in first 305 miles and 3 times in returning 305 miles in FSD beta (most recent update 2 days prior yo trip) and plain cruise control. Overall i...

Nope, not yet on that route. Chargepoint says it has plans…..promises, promises.

Drive your own

Mud flaps and suspension height on Model X. Any issues with front mud flaps (Tesla store MX 2022) rubbing or breaking off at different suspension heights? Suspension will default to low on the Interstate and be set high on my driveway and on dirt roads

I agree with you 100%. I would and do avoid Chicago -Ft Wayne area at all costs. It’s always under construction, so you’re into 2 lanes in heavy traffic all day and all night, it’s industrial landscape,all you think about is how to get off as soon as possible and praying you’re not in one of the...

My problem, and expect it’s typical, is that the phone is in the purse, find phone, unlock phone, go to Tesla app, do whatever, reverse sequence. With fob, reach in pocket and click to open trunk or door. The end. Male software and engineers don’t think of much other than their own experiences...

I keep hitting the windshield wiper button on the yoke . Wipers swipe a dry window, not the best given all the dirt and sand out here. Would like to have to make a more definitive push to make them work. Love the yoke and like just swiping the turn signals.

I’ve noticed big hills are problems. I think it thinks it’s going to run into the hill. I tend not to use anything other than normal driving in these situations.

Since the last two updates (now 2022 44.30.10) Model X no longer exits one car garage on summon. It only goes half way out and stops. It doesn’t matter if I use “come to me” or the “depress arrow key and hold” command. Sentry mode is off. Auto door open is off. Very frustrating. If I then...

Still thinking about it. I don’t like to commit much in advance. Pros and cons to this strategy but been doing for long time in ICE and when I had a traveling job. Got to get serious about room reservations pretty soon though. Turns out Nature Conservancy lands don’t open to public until March...

Strongly recommend fob in pocket To open trunk before you get there. Need car to be “on” and then fob.. Not perfect but I’m getting accustomed to the process. There is no way I’m digging into my purse for a phone…….

The button is so that you can CLOSE the door after you load groceries without resorting to the fob or the phone app orleaving the dtruvk door open until you get into the passenger seat and close it on screen. Very useful. I will say that the button on the falcon wing door is too high in the sky...

I, too, found the update changed how the trunk unlock worked. But tonight I learned that the key fob will unlock the trunk as you approach. At least I don’t have to dig in my purse, find and take out the phone, unlock my phone, go to the Tesla app just to unlock the trunk for groceries. I am...

I keep inadvertently hitting the windshield washer. Can’t be good to wipe dirt or dust without water. Maybe if it required a double click instead of a mere swipe. I do like the swipe for the turn signals.

I saw this morning that apparently ABRP has a way to link to Tesla navigation. It was early and I wasn’t awake enough to read through how to do this. Will have to check on it sometime when sitting in the car..

It was the cat…

Is there a way to put ABRP results into the navigation system? Novice but love road trips

Yes, so far I guess where the charge hole is and jiggle around to make it fit. Just not very elegant When a simple illumination ring would make it plainly visible. One of those “ room for improvement” items in this $130K car.
