    Refreshed Model S - rear seat rattle

    I have the rattle too. When I lay the back seat flat, it goes away. So clearly it’s the latch. A thought I had. Instead of tape on the ‘u’ bolt, what about heat shrink tubing? It’s rubber so I assume a bit more resistant? Thoughts?

    FSD still has to be requested?

    Looks like Beta is now mainstream. Woke up to a software update notification. 2023.12.10. Plus it has all the previous non Beta enhancements. What’s funny is that I got out of the queue last Saturday thinking it would be too long before they reopened the Beta and wanting to try my luck at just...

    FSD still has to be requested?

    There is also thew ability to control the passager seat from the rear screen, the car controls showing up on the Home Screen and auto heated steering wheel (though arguably not super needed in the coming months).

    FSD still has to be requested?

    I've definitely paid for it. By queue I meant the option in the car's UI to be in line to receive the beta. I'm debating getting off of it to enjoy the benefits of the more current firmware updates if it is going to be a while anyway before I get the beta.

    FSD still has to be requested?

    K. Tx. Based on your experience, have people in the queue received non Beta firmware updates?

    FSD still has to be requested?

    Thanks for the clarifications. I'm on 2023.2.10. Should I get off the Beta queue to get a more current firmware version until they reopen Beta or am I likely to receive a more current non Beta firmware version regardless of being in the queue or not?
  7. steilkurve

    FSD still has to be requested?

    Yes, it will but in the meantime, when you've paid that much for something, you kinda expect something out of it. Beta would suffice for me but I don't even have that. And what's frustrating is that I had it on the Tesla I traded in!

    FSD still has to be requested?

    I bought FSD right after delivery, the day of (as I wanted to pay for it separately). That was 3 months ago. Still have not been enrolled but that's likely explained by the fact the car had a more current software version out of the gate than FSD. That said, I really wish they'd find a better...

    FSD still has to be requested?

    I got my car in February and it’s had 2023.2.10 ever since. Pretty old Firmware. I figured it was because FSD was attached to an earlier firmware version. I see 2023.7.5 is out and has the latest FSD beta build. Yet, I still haven’t received FSD. Before you ask, I did purchase the option and...

    Software Update??

    I’m in the same boat. 2023 Model S LR. Got it late Feb. Still on 2023.2.10. Booked an appointment for this Via the app. Service Center replied via the app and said my car was on the latest firmware version available for the VIN. Appointment got cancelled. From a customer experience standpoint...

    2023 Model S LR - FSD

    Hmmm… I imagine it’s not always the case. I got a firmware update a few minutes after being handed the keys to my new Model S. And it was one of the latest firmware versions at the time. But now I seem to be on a diet. Been a month and a few firmware versions have passed me and I still have not...

    2023 Model S LR - FSD

    Curious if anything came of your service request. Traded in my 2017 X for a 2023 MSLR about a month ago. Got upgraded to 20123.2.10 at pickup. I then purchased FSD (wanted it paid on my credit card) but I've been waiting in line since. So, I'm in the same boat. Anyone has any idea if/how more...

    20" Sonic Carbon Wheels. Montreal Area.

    Hey all. For anyone in or around Montreal, Quebec, I'm parting with my 20" Sonic Carbon Wheels for a Model X I just traded in. The wheels are in pristine conditions. Back tires were changed last year (roughly 3000 kms on them) and the front in 2019 (roughly 35000 kms on them). They are...

    Bosal Hitch Adapter Loosening

    I do not believe Tesla changed the Bosal hitch receiver in these model years. Theoretically, it should be fine with your tongue weight and no weight distribution. That said, I put in a DrawTite hitch receiver when I towed with the Model X. Now I was much closer to the tongue weight limit than...

    To buy or not to buy

    Inventory 2023 Model S LR picked up Saturday. X traded in. If I ever have remorse Wednesday, I’ll remind myself of all the money I saved. ;-) Btw, build seems pretty tight. Have not yet encountered initial quality issues. Coming from a 2017, I’m appreciating the upgraded interior, screens...

    Then that could be the issue. I’m 2023.2.10.

    FSD still has to be requested?

    Ok. Tx. And what are the new criteria now that it’s widespread?
  18. steilkurve

    FSD still has to be requested?

    Thanks and sorry. My question wasn’t clear. I understand the Basic AP, EAP and FSD differences. The X I just traded in had the FSD beta. I thought FSD enrolment was automatic or instantaneous now but on my new S, the only option is to request it. I’m on 2023.2.10. Is the beta not in wide release?
  19. steilkurve

    FSD still has to be requested?

    Just got a new Model S LR. After delivery, I added FSD. Wanted to pay for it separately to get credit card points. While all AP features are enabled, I still to ask to be put on the beta. Why is that? Is it not available to all now? Thanks.

    To buy or not to buy

    Thanks. This does comfort me in my decision in that this means it may take a while before we see step improvements over today's tech.

    To buy or not to buy

    Ditto. Went with inventory S. Picking it up tomorrow. Saving was 12K Canadian. And Tesla has the extra 7K off for trade ins of S or X with FUSC, which I do. Not sure how long that offer will last. Won’t get HW4 but am willing to trade off potentially better FSD in the future for the deal.
  22. steilkurve

    To buy or not to buy

    This is helpful. So any new build happening now has HW4 is what the assumption is?
  23. steilkurve

    To buy or not to buy

    Appreciate the POV. That said, in fairness, wasn’t HW3 going to fix/make a lot of things better? Long time Tesla owner and a largely happy one at that but given past experiences, I do take the promise of future functionality delivered by new hardware with a grain of salt. I first paid for the...

    Have the USS been removed from S and X yet? Thought I saw them on the inventory vehicles, tagged as 2023 models, on the lot.

    To buy or not to buy

    Hey all. Want to trade in my 17 X for an S LR. Prices are good now for inventory. Debating if I wait for HW4 which will likely means a custom order and not getting as good of a deal. On the other hand, while HW4 will likely provide a better FSD experience over time, I think it will still be...

    HW4 leaked by @greentheonly - new cameras coming?

    Add Canada to the list. Cameras in the bumper? They will be inoperable from November to April here unless you bring your Tesla to the carwash on the way to and from your destination. And even then...

    Insane Mode

    Thanks all
  28. steilkurve

    Insane Mode

    I wasn’t talking about Insane on LR versus Ludicrous on Plaid. I was talking about Insane on LR versus Insane on the old P85D. Although 0-60 time on both is roughly the same, I feel like the initial kick on the P85D hit harder. Am I imagining things?

    Insane Mode

    Just stabbing the throttle.
  30. steilkurve

    Insane Mode

    Test drove a refreshed LR S. Tried insane mode. Fast for sure but noticed less of an initial kick than what I remember from my old P85D. Just me or common knowledge? If the case, is it because the old Ds had more powerful motors in the back and now they are more even?

    Free Unlimited SC - Transfer to new car?

    Well, seems like I got my answer. Thanks!
  32. steilkurve

    Free Unlimited SC - Transfer to new car?

    I think that's it. You're refreshing my memory. I think I referred myself. I believe the Tesla suggested I should and was surprised I actually could. Either way, when I get a minute today, I will call Support and ask.
  33. steilkurve

    Free Unlimited SC - Transfer to new car?

    Ok. Thanks for the fast and clear answer. And if I sell the car myself directly to a new owner, does the FUSC transfer then?

    Free Unlimited SC - Transfer to new car?

    Hey all. Got a 2017 X100D. Got it in June of that year and it came with free SurperCharging (or it transferred from the S I traded in at the time, can't remember). If I trade in my Model X to buy a new S, will the FUSC transfer to the new car? Thanks in advance for the info.

    Another big $$$ SvC visit

    Late 2021, SvC told me my front air suspension was leaking and needed to be replaced. Links, forearms and other parts also needed to swapped. Was just out of warranty. About $3K CDN. Brought it in yesterday for vibration at highway speeds. More links, forearms and the like need to be replaced...

    Both key fobs disabled

    That’s interesting. Maybe that would indeed trigger the electrical reset in question.

    Both key fobs disabled

    Well, I have to say I'm quite surprised, and pleasantly so. Wait on the support line wasn't that long, or at least less than I thought it would be. Maybe 30 minutes. The agent who handled my call was super friendly and reassuring. She went through with me a number of things to check. Brought up...

    Both key fobs disabled

    Yeah. That’s my feeling as well. The fobs are likely fine and the problem is car-side. Had a similar issue 2 years ago. Roadside assistance was able to remotely clear up some module overload problem or at least that’s what I remember the rep on the phone called it. Called roadside again but they...

    Both key fobs disabled

    Hey all. Both key fobs of my 2017 X have stopped unlocking the doors and enabling driving, and both failed at the exact same time. Changed batteries. No avail. Hard reset the car several times. No change. Odd thing is that the car’s lights turn on when I near the car, but that’s all the...

    Canada - FSD rollout

    Also got FSD Beta today with software update 2022.20.17. 2017 Model X with FSD computer and camera upgrade. Not sure if related but I was skeptical that all cameras had been upgraded correctly as the left repeater camera was below the quality of the right repeater’s. Had them them swap it couple...

    Legacy Model S/X with camera upgrade got FSD?

    2017 Model X. Cameras upgraded in May. 98 score. Still no FSD. What gives? have they stopped expanding FSD Beta participants since May.

    Canada - FSD rollout

    I received my camera upgrades in May. Required two visits as mobile tech said he had the repeater cameras were not the right model. At any rate, the upgrade was done then. It was not an invite. I reached out to them and they said yes. That being said, I’m still waiting for the FSD Beta. My score...

    Camera upgrade gone wrong?

    Hey all. A bit more information here. Here are two screen grabs from the car's camera footage. First one is from the left and is the one I'm wondering whether or not it was upgraded. The second one is from the right camera. Colors seem more real on the second one. Any thoughts are welcome.

    Camera upgrade gone wrong?

    I got the free FSD camera upgrade on my 2017 X last Friday. At the end of the appointment, the mobile tech mentioned that one of the cameras he was given was the wrong model (for latest S/X supposedly) and that he would come back Monday with the right one. Over the weekend, I looked at Sentry...

    Dead charge port light

    But the light doesn't even come on when I simply open the port. Wouldn't the pin issue be related to when I plug in?

    Dead charge port light

    Hello all. Just got my 2017 X back from SC to replace the steering column. It had seized. Noticed the charge port light no longer comes on. It’s charging, but no light. I suppose they unplugged something as they removed the battery to replace the column. In the event it is not that and in...

    Intermittent power steering loss?

    I’m having the exact same issue. Got an appointment in 4 days. Is it dangerous to drive the car until then?
