As the owner of two previous Model S vehicles, P85+, and for the past two years drove a P85D with HW1, (I now own a P100D with HW2), I can give some opinion on the "autopilot experience": I lived through the onset of HW1 autopilot and as some posters have noted it was a bit rough around the...

Never mind. I see "XM requires sunroof".

So I'm not seeing any mention of this on the custom order page on Tesla's site. You can order the "Ultra High Fidelity Package" which includes XM radiation capability. Am I missing something?

Am I correct that if you choose the new all glass roof option then you can't have XM radio? (According to Elektrek review)

Hey thanks so much. I was just trying to figure out where they were! I appreciate your help!! :) Now go vacuum that back seat floor. Lol.

I'm upgrading this week from P85D to P100D. I've been looking everywhere for rear seat photos showing cup holders. (Trivial I know!) Anyone have photos or links? Thank you in advance!

Couple of items to report from my experience with v8.0 (.108) 340 mile round trip this past weekend. Several times on climb uphill as the car was reaching the apex of the hill, the AP would steer violently to the right. I had my hands on the wheel and each time coaxed it back to the center of...

Coralville SC now fully operational. Charging at it now! :)

Can anyone confirm this SC is live? Headed to Iowa City this evening and would be nice to not have to plan on using a J1772 charger for hours. Have any members physically used/charged this SC yet?

The 1st Hawkeye Football home game is tomorrow in Kinnick Stadium......sure would be nice if this SUC was operational! Currently gotta stay overnight in Coralville/Iowa City/Cedar Rapids using J1772 chargers in order to be able to get back to North Iowa. Down and back in the same day will be...

No issues with tire balance, or alignment. There was some moderate wear on the rear tires. service center found no drive train issues at all. i tested out accelerating on various road surfaces and found minimal to no vibration on rough coat Tarmac or concrete but on brand new Tarmac much more...

Im traveling for a few days and haven't been able update my P85D yet. Havent seen even it mentioned in any posts or maybe I missed it but does autopilot also alter speed of vehicle whilst in various speed zones or is this feature note yet included?

Don't notice it at highway speed or with gentler acceleration, mostly with hard acceleration, really picks up vibration.

Feeling some increased vibration from the rear of my MS P85D on acceleration over the past few weeks. Took it up to MSP Tesla SC who found no issues. Just wondering if this could be a tire, balance or alignment problem? Running Michelin Pilots on 21" Tesla Rims. Have about 5000 miles on the...

Ghost it took about a month to get the confirmation email to allow me to order the adapter. You have to provide your VIN at time of order since it's currently limited to one chademo adapter per car. You should be hearing something soon!:)

Just installed Fobotire. Easy install. Now can easily see tire pressures for each wheel. And get alerts!

Thanks for your replies! Downloaded the Greenlots App and ordered an RFID card. This adapter should open up even bigger road trip possibilities! very excited! Thanks again!

Just received my CHADEMO adapter. Looking at areas in the twin cities on Plugshare there are a lot of "Goodwill" fast chargers that are Green Lots chargers. I have Chargepoint cards that issued with level 2 chargepoint chargers......what do I need to be able to use the fast DC chargers? Any...

Apollo 11 It's like driving a first of a kind space ship

Log out and log back into your account on your tesla.

I've never had a problem handing off my keys to a valet in any of my previous ICE cars, but not sure I wanna do the same with my P85D. Have any of you run into issues or roadblocks when checking into a hotel and asking the valet to simply ride along with you to park the car then keeping your...

SVP, congrats on taking delivery. I have to say my delivery experience with the MSP SC was somewhat disappointing too. This is my second Tesla purchase and delivery from them. It took nearly two hours to complete paperwork and no next gen seats for me. No red scarves. I'm a little jealous of...

Took delivery tonight at the MSP SC. Great to be back in a Tesla. This beast loves power though. 120mile drive home, at 70 mph, however outdoor temp is -8F, (-24F wind chill), average 540Wh/mile!!!! Drove in sport mode all the way home and did not have range mode on. But wow! Good job we have...

Seems like Minneapolis is the only Service Center in the US that hasn't received any P85D's yet.

Thanks! At least I know they arrived in Chicago. Now it just needs get a truck to Minneapolis!

Chicago area residents who were waiting for their P85D to unload from train on Dec 24, know if this occurred? Apparently my vehicle is on route to Minneapolis via Chicago. Will be trucked to Minneapolis after unloading from train, but haven't heard if any Model S cars showed up on Wednesday.

So as a Tesla stockholder, I'm a little concerned about the cost involved in "seat gate". Does Tesla simply plan on eating the costs associated with this or will they recycle the Performance Seats they replace with Next Gen seats? Just curious if anyone might know what they plan to do with...

Looks like they are completing a bunch of P85D's today....mine just completed production. (Tan NG seats.....not sure what I'm getting yet though!) Will update Spreadsheet!

Cool Scott! You and I went into production same day so I'm keeping my fingers crossed! Congrats man!

Is there any indication if it's only Black Next Gen seats affected by this or is it all colors?

Badger same thing here. In production since 12/1. You picking up in Chicago or Minneapolis? Just curious if any Chicago or Minneapolis folks have had any feedback on delivery time frame yet?

Excellent thank you all for your explanations and keeping it in laymans terms. Now I know how my patients must feel sometimes!

I am just slowly doctor so my expertise and electrical knowledge is meagre at best......question. The electrical power stored in the Tesla battery is it in AC or DC form? The electricity delivered to charge that battery from any source is AC or DC form? The inverter on the car converts the...

Noon Eastern, Central or Pacific? If it's pacific we gotta wait a few hours yet.

OConnor, how do you know "where" in production your car is? Did Nathan share this with you, or is there another way to see how close your car is to being finished? And I agree....he does have a lot of P85D's to deliver out of Minneapolis! :)

So does anyone have "Production Complete: Your tesla is being prepared for shipment" on their dashboard or did those who had it go back "In Production"?

Yeah tried loggin in and out. Car still shows. Will call Tesla tomorrow PlanB thanks!

I have released my P85 for trade in on delivery of a P85D, my Tesla App still shows my old car and VIN #. It can't log in to the car. I also still see my old Model S on My Dashboard. Any solutions to this?

Just talked with my DS by phone about something unrelated and asked him if delivery dates were still the same as we had planned. He stated "there's definitely been some delays. We might be looking at a few weeks past our initial delivery dates". Gave no indication for reasons. I too would...

Phew......"In production"! Will add to spreadsheet!

Wholeheartedly agree! Very exciting to see P85Ds about to roll of the production line. Bunch of us still anxiously awaiting our cars to be in production! Wish I knew the logistics of how TM decides which cars to build first. It's obviously not first come first served.

My VIN is 3 behind yours! Fingers crossed!!

Here's the response I got from my DS regarding Tesla Winter Tires: Winter Wheels/Tires The 19” Winter Tire Set comes with Pirelli Sottozero II. This is the tire that Tesla has tested with the 19” wheel and it has passed our requirements. If you would like the Sottozero III you can absolutely...

Here's the response from my DS regarding Winter Tires: Winter Wheels/Tires The 19” Winter Tire Set comes with Pirelli Sottozero II. This is the tire that Tesla has tested with the 19” wheel and it has passed our requirements. If you would like the Sottozero III you can absolutely purchase...

FrozenCanuck, I too would be interested in whether these are SottoZero II or 3 tires. There's a definite difference between the two. It should show clearly on the sidewall the version of this tire. (Those of us with water wheel/tire package on order from tesla are curious.) Thanks!

Booyah! The Tesla Gods responded....VIN 64042! Phew.

This is starting to bum me out. Several other Minneapolis deliveries with VIN's for P85D for a few days now, who ordered on the same date as me or after....grrrr :) C'mon tesla I gave up my P85 already, I'm in withdrawal having to drive an ICE car!!

As purchasers of a $130,000 dollar vehicle I shouldn't have to rely on TMC website to give me updates on the car that Tesla is building me. Delivery Specialists or Tesla Reps should have personally reached out (email or phone call) to those of us who had placed orders to let us know of these...

Did they send out an email about the changes??? That ticks me off! Just got off the phone with Tesla since I confirmed again not realizing they had new colors for the Next Gen Seats! They are putting in a "request" to change me from black to tan. Poor customer service making changes without...

I placed and confirmed my order for a P85D on 10/10/14. Looked at my dashboard this morning and it was asking me to "Confirm" my order again??? Anyone else experience this? Hopefully doesn't push me further back in line to take delivery!
