    Update removed Sirius/XM selection from infotainment screen

    Here is my fix. I have a 2015 85D Model S; It have done it on my car and gave the info to another friend that had good luck. it requires some work. 1. Reboot on scroll wheels once--it won't do it. 2. Power off from security on screen--and repower on with brake push--it won't do it. 3. You...

    Solar panels and clay tile roofs

    OK--I have a Spanish clay tile roof in SoCal, and am frustrated like those on this thread that Tesla refuses to install. But Tesla uses 3rd Party local installers for all projects. If someone can find a local installer for solar panels on a clay tile roof and powerwalls --will Tesla even sell...

    Auto Parallel Parking feature working for anyone?

    Sorry to join the frustration after the enthusiasm wave with the V7 upgrade. Frankly, the Autopark is the Beta and Autosteer is working much better (at least on the highways). 1. The only beef with the Autosteer is that is shouldn't be used on <45mph roads. It doesn't do hairpins or sharp...

    Model S vs. X Dual Motor Horsepower

    Just Curious if anyone knows about this. The early description on the Tesla website for the Model X signature says, "The Model X Signature Series comes standard with Tesla’s largest 90 kWh battery, and dual electric motors rated at 259 horsepower in the front and 503 horsepower in the rear."...

    Another op-ed hit piece from the New York Times

    In reality; the company that is burning cash, losing marketshare, and in the red is the NY Times. Trump should just buy it already and close it. Nothing less than a Democrat Party rag.

    4G/LTE Upgrade worth it?

    Can anyone in Tesla Nation point to a study or test (not done by a phone company) that confirms a substantial speed or refresh upgrade going from 3G to 4G/LTE? Is it meaningful and going to be worth the $500 charge to do it? I am particularly wondering about the Google maps refresh rate with all...

    Can you upgrade the 85D to a 90D?

    I did read the quote--but if you upgrade from the 85kw to the 90kw battery pack--do you get an entirely new battery pack? Is it is to be in the $3-5,000 range? So the battery degradation % recycles to 100% and another 8 year guarantee? If true, then a car with 10-20,000 miles 1-2 years old...

    Minor Frustration with Front Console Solved

    One of the silly little frustrations (for me) has been the poorly engineered iPhone charging plug in the new special order Model S Front Console. It is too close to the side wall and any iPhone with a case won't fit. I just got a work around with an extension from California Cable from Amazon...

    Tesla Model S CPO Website - Now Live

    Just some thoughts: I think TMC is pretty fair after I see these CPO cars on with website. I ordered my S85 about year ago and it was delivered September 20, 2014. Of course I went into the "I got gipped" mode when the Dual motor-autopilot upgrades hit the first week in October 2014. I blew...

    You guys really pull into a Nissan dealer with your CHAdeMO adapter?

    Look Teslaholics this isn't some secret society here. Drive up to the Nissan Dealer, walk inside and announce yourself and politely ask to use the charger, if no one else is ahead of you. I have done this about 5 times locally, with absolutely no problem with a handshake and a smile. Frankly...

    New Software Update Notice on the APP

    Just got the new software update notice. Strange it has no number assigned i.e 6.2.1 or 6.3 and there is no mention of what it is adding. Just 2 hour 15 min to install. Since it is still 4AM on the West coast perhaps the fact sheets will appear during Tesla business hours. Most likely the big hp...

    Tesla cuts 60kWh Model S, entry-level Model S is now 70D.

    Does anyone know where the new pumped up 40hp to 422hp for the S85D posted today comes from? Are new order cars coming wit different front and rear motors than the ones delivered a month ago? Or were they always rated at 422hp? Or is there a future SW update that does the magic? Or does some...

    Question on Charging Cost/Efficiency

    With the new Model S pricing for charging, in order to get the faster 58miles/hour charge: It costs $2000 (Dual charger) plus $750 (HPWC) or $2750 to set up higher speed AC charging. Or about $450 for the CHAdeMO high speed DC charging. Is that correct? Advantage would be the HPWC can be at...
