    Model S makes 'thump, thump, thump' sound when backing out of parking spot

    I own a 2021 Model S Long Range with 21" Arachnid Wheels. Starting when the car was new, I would hear a 'Thump, thump, thump' sound under the front of the vehicle whenever backing out of a parking spot, almost as if there was something rubbing against the front tires, but there is no visible...

    Strong Internet Signal, but my Model S Refuses to Connect

    My Mesh home internet system broadcasts both 2.4 & 5MHz. I have 4 nodes; one is in the garage 10 ft from My Model S, so signal strength is not a problem. BTW, when I click the wireless icon (with 4 bars of signal strength indicated) , there are NO SSIDs displayed. When I type my SSID in manually...

    Strong Internet Signal, but my Model S Refuses to Connect

    Upgrades for my Model S used to be so simple---they arrived via satellite. Now Tesla wants me to connect via internet. When I go to connect via the internet, signal strength is 4 bars (I take my laptop into my Tesla, and it connects perfectly). But when I type in my SSID, I receive a "not found'...

    Try as I might, I do not see an "Audio Window" on my big display. Is it on the display over my yoke?

    Ear-Splitting Rumbling Sound When My Model S is in Motion (except when window rolled down)

    I have a 2021 Long-Range low-mileage Model S, and I love it. However, last week when I started to drive the car, the cabin was suddenly filled with an ear-splitting rumbling sound. At first, I thought there was an explosion nearby. Then, when I rolled down any window, the rumbling stopped. Roll...

    Anyone Else Experiencing Regular 21" Arachnid Tires "Thumping" Loudly When Turning While Backing Up?

    I took delivery of my 2021+ Model S in December 2021. It is equipped with regular 21" Arachnid tires. From the beginning, whenever I back out of my driveway and start to turn (either left or right) at the bottom of the drive, I ALWAYS experience a "thumping" or "banging" as my front tires...

    Do I need winter tires for my 2021+ model S LR?

    I live in eastern Iowa and my tesla S has the 21 inch arachnid wheels. We get some pretty good storms in February March and even April. I plan to drive the factory installed tires in the chill acceleration mode, but do not know if this eliminates the need for winter tires. Your thoughts please

    Trouble Using Tesla's Funds Transfer System to Pay for New Model S

    Thanks for the great feedback, guys. After spending hours working with my bank (U. S. Bank) to ensure the problem is not on their end, I think I'll just arrive on D Day with a bank cashiers check in my pocket for the full amount. Then if I like what I see, I'll just hand the check over (and I...

    My new Red 2022 Model S is due to arrive in two weeks. I have tried to use Tesla's "Plaid Funds Transfer System" to transfer the remaining balance due on my car from my U.S. Bank Savings Account to Tesla. However, every time the Tesla system gains entry to my U.S. Bank accounts, and I select my...
