    2023 Model X steering wheel wire indentation - service says it's normal??

    Just picked up a new 2023 Model X with round steering wheel, and noticed an indentation of a wire running through the airbag cover. I can even feel it as I run my finger across. Service is saying that it's normal and doesn't want to replace it. Anyone else with this issue?

I was driving home Sunday evening, going straight through an intersection, and some asshole makes a left turn, hitting my rear driver's side wheel, quarter panel, and bumper. My car takes the hit like a champ - I skid...

    Would an aero wheel cover for the 20” performance wheels make sense?

    Would it even be possible to do? If so, approx how much would it improve efficiency? I love the aesthetics of the performance wheels, but would totally throw on some aero covers for road trips. Thoughts?

    Planning to private party sell my Tesla in the next couple of months - do I extended warranty?

    Just passed 47k miles on my baby, and starting to look at getting a new MS! Just curious though - is it worth it to purchase the extended warranty for $4250 if I'm going to try to sell private party? How much of the $4250 will I get back in the sale if I have it? Or will potential buyers not...

I was going to do a full charge at the Fresno supercharger, swing up to Merced to pick up a friend, and then take the 140 towards Mariposa. My question is, will a full range charge in Fresno in my 85D be enough to get...

    Someone hit my parked tesla...looking for advice

    So as much as it really sucks that my baby got a small chunk taken out of its front bumper, I consider myself extremely fortunate for several reasons. The person that hit me was a county employee in a county car on county business, obviously has full county insurance coverage, notified me of the...

    Any reviews or experience with Aqua 4 Liquid Glass coating vs. regular wax?

    Local detailer here recommending it in place of a more traditional wash/wax job, and as a more reasonable choice compared to cQuartz/Opticoat. Just wondering if it's worth the $350 quoted price (which includes wash/claying). I've tried searching around but haven't seen a lot of information...

    Window doesn't roll itself back up after opening/closing the door

    Has anyone else experienced this before? Seems like half the time when I open/close the rear driver's side door, the window doesn't automatically roll itself up any more. If I sit there and open/close the back door repeatedly, the window just keeps rolling itself down a couple inches at a time...

    Anyone have the Reus Audio Stage 1 sound upgrade for their Model S?

    Most people that have posted on the forums here seem to have gone for stage 2/2.5, but I haven't seen anyone go for stage 1. Has anyone heard the different setups, and what was your reason for not picking the stage 1? Was there a pretty noticeable difference in audio quality?

    Is my car haunted? It changed the charge limit by itself overnight?

    This morning when I went out to my car after charging at home overnight, I noticed that the rated range on my 85D was down to around 220 miles or so. Turns out, somehow the car had set the charge limit to 83%, down from my usual 90%. I haven't touched the charge limit setting in about 2...

    Is it safe to leave the A/C on in your car while charging or supercharging?

    Dumb question, but I searched but didn't see anything. Just wondering if it was "safe" to leave the A/C on while sitting at a charger or supercharger? I know people use their model S in "camper mode" so I'm guessing it's ok, but just wanted to check with the hive mind here!

    What did you think would be your #1 favorite part about your S before owning it.... ...And what is it now? I thought TACC would be my favorite, but it's actually the smoothness and quietness of the ride. What about you?? (changed the title to make it clearer)

    All Tesla drag race!

    Wouldn't it be super awesome to get all our Teslas from the humble model S 40 all the way to the brash P90DL and race them on a strip together? I'd love to see it happen! Who's with me? FWIW I'm in SoCal, and have an 85D I can contribute!

    Help identifying another strange "hollow" noise on my new 85D

    Maybe I'm just hyper-sensitive to all these weird sounds and noises, but I've started noticing a faint noise within the cabin that I can best describe as a "hollow wind tunnel", kind of like the sound you'd expect if you were blowing over the top of a glass coke bottle. The sound will usually be...
