    9 month old P3D+. Started noticing that when I first start up the car and the A/C comes on, I'm getting a very distinct vinegar-like odor coming from the ventilation system. Puzzled me for several days, couldn't figure out what it might be. I know a lot of cars sometimes have a mold problem...

    PSA: If Transporting a Fire Extinguisher, Make Sure the Pin is Secure

    I had always heard people say that an ABC dry chemical fire extinguisher, while highly effective at putting out a fire, will make a huge mess. They were not wrong. :eek: I recently moved, and the moving company would not transport pressurized canisters or other hazardous materials. I was...

    [V9] How to Format USB into 2 Partitions for DashCam and Music [Windows]

    Introduction I find the requirement for a separate USB drive for music and the v9 dashcam feature to be annoying. Without some type of work-around, that would use both USB ports in the front of the car, leaving you with no USB port for phone charging. It's been reported that you can partition...

    TACC - Set to Current Speed?

    Ran into a dilemma this morning that appears to be a fairly large design problem. Surface street, normal speed limit 45 MPH. Approaching school zone, speed limit 25 MPH when the yellow lights are flashing (they were). I like to set TACC in school zones like this to prevent me from going above...

    Tesla Winds and Elevation Web Browser App

    I've been a fan of mochouinard's Tesla Headwind Estimator for a long time. However, a problem is that the app relies on another web site to obtain the wind data, and that web site (and all others like it) will charge you if you obtain weather information from them too often. mochouinard ran...

    2.16.17+ Autosteer Problems - Is It Just Me?
