    Tesla roof rack and Kuat Piston SR using T-channel mounting?

    Has anyone installed a Kuat Piston SR bike rack using the t-channel on the Tesla roof rack? I've been using the clamp, but I notice it is metal to metal contact between the Piston SR clamp and the roof rack itself. I don't think this is optimal as it scratches the roof rack and I don't think the...

    rear suspension noise when in comfort mode for 2023 MS LR?

    I have a 2023 MS LR and I've noticed when the car suspension is in comfort mode the rear of car seems to make weird noises when going over bumps, that sounds like low frequency creaking noises. When the car is in Auto or Sport suspension mode, I do not hear this same type of noises. Anyone...

    PIAA Si-Tech on 2023 Model S LR Refresh

    I ordered a set of PIAA Si-Tech wiper blades for my 2023 MS LR and even though Cravenspeed indicates it works for 2021/2022 it does not fit without some modifications to the adapter for 16mm Top lock connectors. The included top lock connector has "wings" that stick out and prevent the insertion...

    1TB M.2 SSD for Model S LR Refresh for Steam and Sentinel?

    Now that I know the external 512GB M.2 SSD works, I ordered a Samsung 1TB 980 PRO NVME M.2 SSD to use in my Model S LR. I'm not sure what version of USB the MS LR supports, but if it's at least USB 3.0 it will support up to 5 Gb/s data transfer.

    1TB M.2 SSD for Model S LR Refresh for Steam and Sentinel?

    I think the USB A in the glove box and the 2 USB C connections in the console support data. In my glove box, I have a small usb 3.0 hub that works fine with the Tesla supplied USB memory stick. The 2 USB C connections do support data its just that the USB hub I use in the glove box only supplies...

    1TB M.2 SSD for Model S LR Refresh for Steam and Sentinel?

    Yes, this one works: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09J4PHCCK/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 However, only the USB A connections seem to data, the USB C connections seem to be charging only.

    holiday update and xbox controller via bluetooth not working

    Just played DOOM Eternal and Street Fighter V on my MS LR loading from my 512GB M.2 drive and no crashing or weird video artifacts, the games just work and are responsive. The loading times seem a bit long, but overall I'm impressed.

    holiday update and xbox controller via bluetooth not working

    Yes, thats the one. However, I ended up returning it because it felt cheap just like the Jowua one. I'm getting PS5 controllers instead. For now, I'm using my XBOX Elite Series 2 connected via USB.

    1TB M.2 SSD for Model S LR Refresh for Steam and Sentinel?

    So I got it to work with my 512GB SSD. I had to remove the Tesla 128GB USB stick and I was able to use one of the USB ports on my USB hub in the console. It gave me the option to also format for Steam in the "Safety" UI of the Tesla control screens. There are even basic file operations in the...

    1TB M.2 SSD for Model S LR Refresh for Steam and Sentinel?

    That is an option, but getting a 1TB M.2 drive should yield better performance than a SD card. I'll need to do some testing

    1TB M.2 SSD for Model S LR Refresh for Steam and Sentinel?

    So I found an old 512GB M.2 SSD I had lying around and put in an external case with an USB C port and hooked it up to my MSLR Refresh. I'm downloading Street Fighter via Steam, but does not seem to recognize it. Still fiddling with it to see if it recognizes it.

    1TB M.2 SSD for Model S LR Refresh for Steam and Sentinel?

    Has anyone used an M.2 SSD in an external case hooked up to a MS LR Refresh? I was thinking of hooking one up to one of the USB connections to allow Sentinel recording and support Steam downloaded games. Thoughts?

    I tried the 8Bitdo USB controller and my Xbox elite series 2 controller still cannot connect to it. Works via a hardwire usb connection, just not over bluetooth.

    holiday update and xbox controller via bluetooth not working

    I got the 8Bitdo Sn30 controller and it pairs correctly and works. I also ordered the 8Bitdo USB adapter that supports Xbox controllers, so I will see if my Xbox Elite controller will work with it.

    Hello All, I just got the holiday update installed and in the release notes it says bluetooth game controllers are now supported. However, I tried 2 different XBOX game contollers, including the latest XBOX Elite Series 2 controllers and the bluetooth does not seem to work. I can see the car...

    PIAA wipers or stick with Bosch Aerotwin OEMs for windshield wipers?

    Which PIAA wipers fit the Model S? I have a 2023 Model S and I tried the Trico Force wipers because Trico website said they would fit, but they don't fit because there is a plastic bump at the end of the wiper arm that prevents the wiper from fitting into the adapter.

    I have same pillar and grill mis-alignment on the driver side as your car shown in pic A1. Did Tesla ever fix that interior trim alignment issue? I'm brining my car in next week to have them fix it.

    Best 20" or 21" square setup with all seasons tires?

    I also just got a set of TS5 20" with Michelin all-seasons. I haven't had a chance to mount them yet as local tire shops are swamped due to the Seattle snow. I ordered a floor jack to mount myself, but it won't be here until EOW. In the meantime, I've been ceramic coating the wheels with Carpro...

    Model S 2023 VINs

    The console where the screen sits in looks the same size compared to last year. However, the bezels around the screen are dramatically reduced, looks like 50% reduction in bezel width. Pic below is me holding a Spigen screen protector for a 2021/2022 MS rear entertainment screen right next to my...

    Model S 2023 VINs

    Picked up my 2023 MSLR last week. Differences I'm aware of so far compared to 2021/2022 MS: 1) USS still installed and functional based on parking with distance markers 2) Rear entertainment screen larger than 2021/2022 S\X Mods so far: -RPM Tesla Blade spoiler -Gyeon Leather Shield Upcoming...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    This maybe the first difference I'm seeing between 2021/2022 and the new 2023s. The rear entertainment screen looks larger. I ordered a Spigen screen protector for the front and rear screens of my MSLR. The front screen protector fits perfect and the rear fits, but the bezels are huge and covers...

    new TS5 wheels\tires and TPMS setup?

    Hello Folks, I'm getting a set of 20" TS5s + Michelin Pilot Sport All seasons and these wheels\tires already have TPMS sensors installed. Does anyone know what the setup process is so my 2023 Model S LR will recognize them and get PSI information from them? thanks

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Just picked up my 2023 Model S LR and drove it home from Seattle to Bellevue. It was dark and rainy so I could not see much during the pickup process but overall the car looked like it was in good shape. So the car does have the Ultra-sonic sensors in the bumper, but how do I tell whether they...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Has anyone gotten a 2023 Model S delivered yet? I'm picking my 2023 up on Tuesday at the Seattle delivery center. I'll report back as to whether the ultrasonic sensors still exist or not.
  34. M

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Is that confirmed to be the case that there are no ultrasonic sensors on the 2023? I guess I'll find out soon as I pick up 2023 MSLR next Tuesday.

    PF4983xx, so this is a 2023. Looks like bet to pause the order to 10/31 paid off.

    Ordered in Feb 2022 and pushed out once to 10/31. VIN just assigned today, EDD is 11/20-11/26. VIN:PF4983xx Model S LR, Black, White interior, FSD, 19" wheels

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    same deal here. I got a text saying my Model S LR saying my car would be ready in several weeks, but no VIN assigned yet. If I don't get a 2023, I will most likely cancel and re-order.

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Is your Model S a 2022 or 2023 model? My Model S LR is also supposed to ready between 12/1-12/31 and I'm hopping it's a 2023.

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I also have hold status until November, so I'm hoping for a 2023.
  42. M

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I guess I can just cancel and then re-order in late November and get in the queue again. The only downside is FSD is 15K vs the 12K I ordered it for.

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    So I was able to delay my order for a Model S LR until November. I notice on the website it says the delivery is on hold until 10/31 and there is a button I can press to say I'm ready to take delivery. The advisor said if I don't take delivery the 2nd time the order will be canceled. Is there a...

    Did you request to have it moved to November, or was it originally scheduled to be delivered in November? Do you know f the existing VIN they have assigned gets assigned to someone else and a new VIN gets assigned? thanks

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    My 2022 Model LR just got assigned a VIN and I'm trying to get it moved later and the service advisor said they might be able to push it to November. Any idea, if it will end up being a 2023? Also, I'm thinking of changing my order from 21" to 19", does anyone know if Tesla let's you change...

    Hello All, I have my 2022 Model S LR on order and should be delivered this month. I got the 21" arachnids, but being in the Seattle area, I want to change my wheels to either 20" or 21" with all season tires. Any recommendations? I know Tsport line sells 20" TS5 with Michelin all seasons so...
