I have a Powerwall+ and solar system with a separate Tesla Gateway box (installed by a third party installer). I believe my solar production numbers are doubled. I first noticed this indirectly because it makes my house consumption appear higher than expected and I believe I have confirmed by...

I have a 2013 car that I love dearly but one thing that's always been a little disappointing is that the key fobs are not recognized to set the user settings (e.g. seat position). I'm pretty sure this was originally listed as a feature for the car but then removed at some point (wasn't it?) I...

I'd like to be able to open an app, hit a button to turn on climate control, and then put my phone away confident in the knowledge that the app will wait around for contact with the car and do the right thing... If the app cannot contact the car within a reasonable period of time (e.g. before...

I had hoped this was just a temporary thing coinciding with the updates, but Elon's tweet makes it sound like the new color choices are more permanent. To me Silver is just always the right color for a car... And alongside white it has to be the most energy efficient in warm climates... It...

Ok, this is just stupid but - I love the little grey cleaning cloth that came with my car (mid-2013). I'm guessing it is microfiber but it feels almost like silk and really is better than any screen or glasses cleaning cloth that I've come across before. Does anyone know exactly what material...

I've had the car for about 16 months and I'm way overdue for a tire rotation (17k miles). Also I discovered today that one of my tires is leaking air slowly from the valve stem. I've been debating between doing the $600 annual inspection or just taking the car to the corner Dobb's for $50...

I have been using bluetooth with an iPhone to listen to music / podcasts and take phone calls for over a year now (iPhone 5s and now 6). And as much as I love my Tesla like one of my children (ha ha) I have to say that this is the one area where it performs more poorly than my old car with the...

Anyone else experiencing this? Everything seems fine with the navigation system but under some circumstances it stops drawing routes on the map - i.e. the blue line is absent while navigating. This is not transient - it stays this way for all routes until I do a reboot of the 17" console...

I have an S60 without supercharger access so it would cost me $2500 to activate it post purchase... Realistically we'd only use it once or twice a year to go to Chicago from St. Louis. As much as I dearly love my car I've avoided taking it on road trips so far just because charging on the road...

So, in cold weather the car uses energy to heat battery to mitigate the loss of the regenerative braking capacity while the battery is cold. So the car's heating algorithm has to weigh the cost of heating the battery to a certain temperature in a certain time vs. the likelihood that we'll be...

I've only driven my own car so I don't know if this is normal but I've always thought the brake pedal has too much play in it... If I lift my foot off of the pedal quickly enough I get a small rattle sound as the pedal bounces... I don't mean the hydraulics but the pedal itself seems "loose"...

So... twice now I've gotten in the Tesla and driven away without the key, presumably because the key in the house is close enough to the garage. The car did warn me eventually so I could go home and get it before I got too far. I've never had this problem with my other car with key-less entry...

I have the 60kWh and I've noticed that in unscientific tests and for "demo" purposes I get a bigger reaction flooring it at 30mph or 60mph than from a standing start. The torque curve for the car should be pretty linear from 0 to 70 so I wouldn't expect this. I'm wondering: 1) If it may have...
