    Who with a score of 100 and more than 100 miles is still waiting for FSD roll out?

    Next Friday it will be something like "No beta for you. You don't have 420 miles."

    Who with a score of 100 and more than 100 miles is still waiting for FSD roll out?

    I have had a solid 100/100 from day one, driving every day averaging 6 miles a day, a lot at rush hour. Unfortunately, I hit the previously unknown 100 mile minimum only after Friday's "cutoff". No beta for me 😢

    Do we have to sum up each day to see the total scored miles driven, or is there an easier way?

    White Tesla looks awful under the new UI. Or is it just me

    I'm not sure how a personal attack fits into this conversation. Also, downgrade was due to several issues, not just the avatar. New app removed some features, and is much more laggy than the previous version.

    White Tesla looks awful under the new UI. Or is it just me

    I have a white Model S and it also looks like a weird shade of silver in the new app. I downgraded to the old app version. New app is also missing charge voltage and vent window controls. Removed password protection to start car from phone is even more unacceptable.

    GRR... Got this right after updating 2018 RWD LR M3 to this version... Never had an issue like this before. Autopilot and cruise disabled. Visualizations and advanced summon still work though. Tesla prematurely disabling radar? 😜

    Two Model 3 changes - Beginning of June

    Thanks! Odd that it does not use 12V/3A max since that would not have required any step-down conversion from 12V power on max.

    Does anyone know what max power these usb-c ports provide? Easiest way to measure is probably plugging in a Mac using the native apple power cord and running "pmset -g ac" on command line

    USB Too Slow -TeslaCam

    It appears that most regular flash usb drives have to occasionally pause writing to defragment and/or move data for wear leveling. Since Tesla software expects each file to be written to USB in a short period of time, it gives up writing if the drive pauses. Although Tesla can definitely improve...

    Model 3 range increase to 325?

    For RWD LR Model 3s, the update did go out a while ago, and I saw my range increase from 310 to 325, but subsequent software updates deleted this improvement. We really need transparency in this issue.

    Model 3 LR RWD Range Shown at 100% Charge?

    Feb. 2018 RWD LR.. currently 310 miles with full charge. It temporarily went up close to 325 when increase was announced, but went back down over the next couple of software update. What the hell is going on?

    EAP suddenly forced me to take control and "disappeared" for a while?

    Referral Reward: Forged Performance Wheels

    I have a choice between the 21" Arachnid forged wheels for Model S and the mystery Forged Performance wheels for the Model 3. I do not know which to choose. Arachnids are nice, but just too big for my wife's daily driver, so I probably would end up selling those. However, I might like the Model...

    Driving in reverse makes GPS position wrong

    I have complained to Tesla about this for over two years. The bug was introduced in 2016 with one of the firmware updates. I have escalated probably 6 months ago, but it is still not fixed. My Model3 has almost the same issue, but it corrects itself much faster. For anyone who's arrow turns...

    Onboard Charger Died

    So there could not have been a blown fuse at all.. I did a hard reboot by power off button and disconnecting/reconnecting the high voltage cutoff loop in the frunk. Miraculously, car charges fine now. I have limited it to 20A just in case though... Will report back if it dies again.

    My Gen 1 charger failed a few days ago. Service center is quoting $2,500! That is $500 more than they used to charge for installation of a second charger. I may have agreed to it if it was cheaper, but $2,500 is crazy! I ordered fuses, but concerned that something else in the charger is actually...

    Unused harness connector behind rear air vent assembly

    Does anyone know the purpose of the blue connector behind the rear air vents? It is taped to the harness that also connects the rear USB ports. The air vent assembly pops off easily by the way, at least on my car.
