    Preventive eMMC replacement on MCU1

    So if a car is still under warranty, what should the values be, before considering the chip to be so bad that you could require a repair?

    Preventive eMMC replacement on MCU1

    I noticed that in /lib/misc there is a file called emmc-vitals-history where data is written from a script in /local/bin. There seems to be a counter that is counting downwards. Is Tesla monitoring the wear of the eMMC memory chip?

    Likely MCU Failure (MCU1 eMMC)

    So, i need to get my hands on a "ready to install" MCU to have that emmc card cloned, then they could restore it?

    Likely MCU Failure (MCU1 eMMC)

    Just wondering, would it be possible to install a new emmc chip either blank or with the software you a re able to get out of it, and then drive down to Tesla and have them reinstall the software on the repaired MCU? I guess, that when Tesla installs a "new" MCU it will be with the same type of...

    Navigation System Needs Service

    I have the exact same problem, it started in june. The pre history on this, is that the car was not connected to any WiFi sp apparently the navigation maps would not update to the new version that Tesla released sometimes around may. And in June the car then received a new general firmware...

    Will tesla release details of crash to drivers

    My wife has done almost the same, a car makes a sudden stop on the highway and she hits the car in front of her. no FCW at all, no AEB assistance. She was going at around 72 mph when the car in front of her stopped. She was not using the autopilot. She had to do all the work to stop the car by...

    Out of warranty concerns about Tesla

    I am quite sure that EU does not care wether the customers of Google or Facebook are satisfied with the service they get.

    Out of warranty concerns about Tesla

    Well Google has just been fined around 2.7Bn USD for violating EU anti trust laws. For unfairly favoring some of its own services over those of rivals. This could apply to Tesla as well if EU went into looking at how Tesla is doing their business favouring their own service centers...

    Wife wants Model X - Opinion?

    As others have already said, happy wife = happy life. My wife loves her car so much, and I have to ask politely if I want to try it out to :-) But as long as I love my Model S as much as she loves her Model X, the family is all happy. I would not hesitate to go for the Model X for the wife...

    Where to find a silicone TX key fob

    So cool, just ordered to black ones instead of the Model S we have been using for the past month now. The Model S version does work but one made specifically for the Model X should work better :-) /Martin

    EU finalize and deliveries

    But this does not apply to cars going to either Norway or Switzerland since they are not part of the EU. Cars to Norway goes as far as I remember directly to Norway. If they were to enter EU first they would be added with EU customs tax for exporting to Norway... Regarding the chargeport...

    EU finalize and deliveries

    Yes. But there was an exception if you had a written and confirmed agreement with your dealer to purchase a car before the 8. of October last year. And if the car was delivered before first of July 2016. Unfortunately the danish tax service does not recognize the reservation agreement as a...

    We got our Model X about 9 hours later when they had fixed the broken door. Now the problem is the car alarm goes off every time the car feels lonely. And this feeling comes avery 15-20 minutes. So we had to disable the car alarm and are going back to the service center on monday. Quite funny...

    We took delivery of our new Solid black X90D today at Tesla servicecenter in Aarhus Denmark. The pictures says it all. Well the color and the 90D is correct. Everything else is wrong... Our X90D went straight back into the shop. Driver front door did not work at all...

    Anyone planning to keep their Model X for over 10 years?

    We just sold our 2006 Mercedes ML 280 CDI and replacing it with our new Model X. I would expect that the Model X would last as long as the Mercedes. The 8 years warranty on battery and drive unit definitely adds on that. Where the Mercedes only had a 2 years warranty from 2006 until 2008. Making...

    Model X June Deliveries

    Definately, the delivery fee is roughly 600 USD here in Denmark, that includes the 250 USD license plates. All of the around 15 Model X that are going to be delivered next week went by plane. This is because of a new tax coming out here on the first of July that adds an additionally 30% on top...

    Safety Deal Breaker after Model X Test Drive

    "What would happen with ANY OTHER car if your child put their fingers in the door after you slam it shut?" I unfortunately did exactly that to my 4 year old daughter in out late Model S. shut the rear passanger door while her fingers were between the windows and the car. I was SO happy that it...

    70D vs. 90D?

    We already have a new S85 with Auto pilot for longer daily use. The X would be once a year roadtrip around europe. The daily use of the Model X would be for the wife to drive around. We are most definitely going for a non-performance, mostly based on the price tag. I do not even dare to think...

    70D vs. 90D?

    I have the exactly the same thoughts. The small difference I have is that we might be facing an additional tax on EVs here in Denmark, that will make the 90D roughly 50.000 USD more expensive than the 70D. The biggest problem is that the danish tax government can not seem to make a decision on...

    Production X Configuration Has Begun!

    looks like this car now is out of reach for most danish buyers, since a new TAX will make it close to 400-450.000 USD. Frustrating with a long wait time just to see the car slip away :-( /Martin

    X Screen Size?

    I really do not think it matters if the screen is 17" or 19", what matters is if they have managed to make the user interface faster. The one on the Model S is really a pain in the "#%& when it comes to speed. It does help to use a VMware VDI solution when it comes to browsing, but not much...

    Model X Delayed until Q3 2015

    This is a big problem here ind Denmark as all EV incentives ends by 31.12 2015 meaning that we risk a 180% sales tax added to the car, so a 100.000 USD Tesla will end up getting a price tag of nearly 300.000 USD here in Denmark. Hope that they can deliver to us here in DK before the end of 2015...
