    Display Reability

    Moderator note: This is a combination of two identically-started threads. OK...I am old. BUT....my eyes are still pretty good. Does it seem to anyone else that the font size and color on the display are too hard to read....especially when it is important and you have only fractions of second to...

    Tesla Remote Solar [Product Idea]

    The attached is a fake flyer on a product that I wish the solar industry could/would offer. I would appreciate the views of others. The starting point for taking the time to put this on paper is learning over the years that I have so many neighbors who cannot put solar on their homes - even here...

    Homelink not working with Chamberlain Liftmaster remotes

    Big Mystery: Hope someone else has figured this out. My 2014 has the EEPROM issues in the MCU. It gave me the screen you see here. There will be a recall, but in the meantime, Tesla zapped my EEPROM back to zero. It took a while, but everything came up and I was able to reprogram my various...

    The Right Daily Charge Level

    OK...I am confused. Earlier in the Year, I am sure I heard Elon answer a question about the recommended daily charge level, to which he said 70%. Then last week, I believe there was a tweet from Elon that recommended 90%. So....which is it?!

    Model X Garage Fit

    A number of Model X owners have expressed problems in using the Falcon Wing doors inside their garages. Let me pass on my own situation, hoping it might apply to others. 1. Our garage doors of the traditional five-panel rollup design. When these needed to be replace, we chose three-panel doors...

    Unexpected "STOP" Message

    During a recent rain storm here in So. Cal. (quite rare) the instrument panel gave this warning (Photoshop simulation) with the loud, piercing emergency braking system alert. I believe that the right front corner ultrasonic sensor failed when wet. It is working again, now that it is dry. Headed...

    Suggested Tire Repair Policy for Tesla

    Try to put yourself in this position before you respond: A few weeks ago, we punctured a tire on the way to Las Vegas. We were able to use the "inflate with sealant" pump I had bought from Tesla. I called the Tesla Service Center in Vegas, and I asked if they could make repairs. They said, "We...

    SuperCharger Use Map

    A year ago, the Hawthorne Tesla Design Center had a wonderful display on the wall of the lobby. (The is the site of the Superchargers) This display rolled through the top 10 busiest Supercharger sites around the world, even showing which slots were occupied. No surprise that the information is...

    Yorba Linda Vacationers First To Go Coast To Coast Mostly by Autosteer

    My wife and I recently completed a 29 day trip from California to Florida to Ohio and back with lots of useful experiences to share. I have included a PDF file describing the trip. We were not out to set any records, but I am pretty sure we were the first to go coast-to-coast using Autosteer...

    Luggage Packing Record - Can You Top This?

    I have not found this topic elsewhere, but I think it would be fun to see how much others have managed to pack into their Model S. I will start the bidding with this: Four passengers with rear seats up. Only two pots of flowers in cabin; all other luggage in rear and frunk Inclusions: Two...

    Improving the XM Radio Interface

    I am two weeks into Tesla ownership. I already realize how critical it is to NOT be looking at the display when driving (and I realize why "blind feel" knobs served so well for decades!) With so many features and the desire for upgradeability, I "get it" on why the touch screen is a necessary...
