Since early November a number of people are having problems with Slacker streaming (buffering and connection errors). Tesla has acknowledged the problem and informed us that a firmware update is forthcoming. For a couple of days now, I noticed that the problem has gone away (without a firmware...

Anybody using the AT&T Velocity (ZTE MF923) for remote access to a dashcam? Can it be used around-the-clock (24x7) without hanging/freezing and having to be power cycled (turned off/on again)? The AT&T Unite and the ZTE Mobley hang/freeze after a couple of days of use and need to be power...

I have a Blackvue DR650GW-2CH dashcam installed in my Feb '15 S85D. After much experimentation, I have unequivocally proved that the DR650GW-2CH interferes with the RF signal sent from the Tesla charging cable to the Tesla Model S to command the car to open its charge port. With the camera...

Here is the mystery: 1) My home HPWC consistently opens Model S's with the old (not auto close) charge port (I tried with two loaners) 2) My home HPWC intermittently (as in rarely) opens the charge port on my Feb '15 Model S (with the newer auto close charge port) 3) My car's charge port...

I got an AT&T ZTE Mobley WiFi Hotspot to remotely access my Blackvue using its Cloud capability. The ZTE Mobley fits nicely in the OBD2 connector, stays out of the way and works OK. The price is right (zero with a contract, $100 otherwise) and service is only $10/month (on a Mobile Share...

Does anybody have an external EZ-Pass taped to the bumper behind the nosecone and has a front license plate and has had success witht that setup? Thanks!

Any suggestions? Thanks

Is the voltage on the OBD port a reasonably stable 12V or does it fluctuate materially (like in an ICE battery)? I want to use it to power an electronic device and need to determine if I need to stabilize it. Thanks!

This is not meant to be a step-by-step guide, just a series of comments for those who have already read all of the great detailed posts in this forum. Camera -- I decided to get the Blackvue DR650GW-2CH because of its unique "Cloud" feature. Having to switch WiFi on my iPhone to access the...

Is the 12V battery charged from the main one while the car is parked? I just installed a dashcam and want to make sure it will not drain the 12V battery. For the main battery, the drain on the dashcam is minuscule. Thanks

I dont remember observing or reading about this before. I'm on 2.12.22 but this could have changed in a prior upgrade.

Once there is no activity, how long does it take for the car to go into "Sleep" mode/status? Thanks

Thanks!

Thanks!

This winter, my Tesla will be parked outdoors at work and I will need to deal with snow removal when it snow during work hours. 1) Does anybody have a recommendation on a good, safe brush? 2) Does anybody have a view on those windshield snow covers? 3) Anything else? Thanks much,

The Model S "remembers" the seat heater setting from trip to trip but turns off the heated steering wheel at the end of every trip. This means that, during the winter, at the beginning of every trip, we need to select Controls/Controls/Cold Weather/Steering Wheel to turn it back on. Also, it...

I'm trying to use cURL to do the authentication and get an access token but have been unable to get the proper format together. I am trying: curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d {"grant_type" : "password", "client_id" : "***", "client_secret" : "***", "email" : "***", "password" : "***"...

I am interested in replacing the crappy OEM mats and am considering Lloyd Luxe or Ultimat. Before I decide, I would like to see/touch them. Does anybody know of any national distributors that has samples in store? (I am in NJ) Thanks!

I am having issues with my AC. Randomly, it will stop cooling down the car without me touching the controls. I have brought car into the SC twice and they have been unable to duplicate the issue. Is there any tool or mechanism out there for me to log, on an ongoing basis, the temperatures...

My 85D makes a whistling / whirring high-pitched noise, which I don't remember from my test drive on a P85. When I accelerate, the noise increases in pitch/volume and that is kind of cool. However, when I am cruising at a semi-constant speed, it can be quite annoying. Below 10 mph, it is not...

Is there any mechanism to display data about the car (e.g., estimated range) on a custom web page/site that is being displayed on the car's browser? Something like variables inside of scripts? Thanks!

Are the brakes on recent cars hydraulic or electric? Thanks

How does Range Mode's Torque Sleep affect acceleration on an 85D? Has anybody done any acceleration measurements with Range Mode turned on/off? Thanks.

Dell TP713 Wireless Touchpad appears to work well for controlling the 17" touchscreen from the back seat. It comes with its own RF Nano Dongle that connects to the Tesla's USB port. It is not Bluetooth. Amazon.com: Dell TP713 Wireless Touchpad: Computers Accessories

With my Model S connected to my home WiFi, why is that I can't access/browse websites / webservers on my home/private network?

Is there an URL Scheme associated with the Tesla iPhone app? thanks.
