    Tesla releases New Yoke

    Agreed. The texture felt cheap and fake. For a $100k car, I expected far better material. Mine started peeling before I even reached 10k miles!

    Peeling yoke replacement

    Bumping this thread up as a new yoke with stitching has been released. I don't know if this one will have the airbag as horn button, but I am set to get it installed on the 23rd of April. Has anyone else received the new yoke? Please post pics if you have.

    Found matching center caps for Arachnid wheels

    Just curious as to why you sold them (the spacers). Do you have any other pics of the car with them on?

    I LITERALLY just landed in south Florida from Buffalo Niagra! UGH! Anything wrong with the wheels (dents, bends, etc.)? How many miles on them? Thx in advance.

    Model S Refresh Roof Tint (Baking in the South Florida Sun lol)

    Yeah, I got the Llumar IRX 15 all around and 50 on the windshield. I'll probably go 50 on the roof at this point and call it a day. I have the same (IRX) on my F150 with 40 on the windshield and panoramic sunroof and the difference is night and day.

    Model S Refresh Roof Tint (Baking in the South Florida Sun lol)

    What year is your S? It's weird that the refresh loaner I had (built in 12/22) had a MUCH darker tinted roof than my 6/23 built S. As I said before, it was dark by the front visor and faded to a lighter smoked color towards the back and the SC said it was factory like that. Meanwhile, my...

    Model S Refresh Roof Tint (Baking in the South Florida Sun lol)

    I currently have a loaner that has a build date of 12/22 (refresh) and own a Model S w/ a build date of 6/23 that's in service at the moment. The roof on the 12/22 loaner is factory tinted like my old 2020 MSLR was so I feel like the heat rejection was noticeably different. I saw another post...

    Naples area tint/ppf recommendations?

    I ended up using Riding Clean Garage (RCG) in Pembroke Pines for the full XPEL PPF and ceramic coating. I'm still looking for the right company to do the roof. I have a loaner that has a build date of 12/22 (mine is 6/23) and the roof is factory tinted like my 2020 was. I wonder why the change?

    How to manually open the rear doors of a 22MS

    Holy sh*t! I didn’t know that. I’ve never sat in the backseat before, but I assumed (yes, i know, i know) the door release was in the same place as the front doors! I am glad you asked this, Doug! No wonder ppl have made a big stink about this in the news (being trapped in the car). I assumed...

    Looking for the best PPF and Tint Pricing - Boynton Beach, Florida

    I used RCG- Riding Clean Garage (RCG - Auto Detailing - Ceramic Coating Miramar, Fort Lauderdale )in Pembroke Pines. They did an excellent job. I used XPEL on bumper, hood, fenders, sideview mirrors, headlights, fogs and both rear quarter panels top to bottom and then did ceramic coating on top...

    Did my windshield tint lead to this crack?

    I had a crack and a few pits in my last MSLR...it cost $1200 w/ Safelite and OEM Tesla glass. The cameras recalibrate on their own so the extra charge was not needed to do so (2020 MSLR). I confirmed this w/ Tesla as well.

    Naples area tint/ppf recommendations?

    Anyone have recommendations for the roof (looking for a shop that's used to dealing w/ Tesla's and our interior suede-ish pieces that can get stuck in the tint).

    Tint percentage suggestions and tint mfr sought 23 MS Blue with white interior?

    It looks nice! Did you do your roof as well? Also, I think where you live has A LOT to do with it. I live in South Florida where the sun sits about 5 feet from the top of your head lol. But our heat index has been consistently over 104 degrees plus our wonderful humidity here. You have to love...

    Incoming callers hear the radio

    My callers hear the car's safety alerts when I'm backing up, turn signals, etc. 2023 Model S LR. They can even hear when i'm typing a text to someone! My F150 doesn't do this and my previous MSLR (2020) did not do that either.

    Tint percentage suggestions and tint mfr sought 23 MS Blue with white interior?

    I have the same car (MSLR '23) but black on black and just did 15% all around and 50% on the windshield and I don't think it's dark enough. The roof allows a lot of light into the cabin so it is not your typical 15%. Its funny because my previous MSLR (2020) had 15% and 50% on the windshield and...

    Owners delivery stories, photos and first impressions

    Just in looking at the design, the ones on my 2020 were just an LED with a reflective base so the beam just scattered. The new design has an actual lens so the light is 'broken up' across the road. I am looking forward to taking delivery of mine tomorrow so I can examine it and see the...

    Owners delivery stories, photos and first impressions

    I'm trading my 20 MSLR for a '23 tomorrow. I am only trading mine because of the 3 years free unlimited supercharging because of the amount of driving I do and partially because of the new tech. I am the opposite of some of you in that I haven't been happy about not being able to speak to...

    Does the vertical screen Model S have carwash mode?

    I have a 2020 MSLR and there is no car wash mode on it. The 2023 Plaid loaner I had for a week had the mode on it. I think someone else already said this, but I just turn off sentry mode and start washing (myself- I also do not believe in automatic car washes). It's so much more satisfying...

    Refresh Model S trim pieces fitment on older Model S (2020 Performance)?

    Well that escalated quickly! lol I used the Tesbros kit and it came out good. I still have to do the mirrors (PIA), but the car looks much better. I agree tho, next time i'll just go buy the new one with the new trim pieces lol. Post a pic of the new whip!

    Long Range Plus Battery Range Calculation

    I'm curious how that went. I also have a 2020 Model S LR+ with 43K miles and at 100% get 364 miles instead of anywhere near 402. I am going to try what EVFamilyGrins said up above and see if anything changes. I am usually not one to risk driving down to anything below 10%, but the range is one...
