    Have to open app to use key

    I screwed up and traded in a 2018 Model S for a 2023. I have several issues, the biggest being that I have to open the Tesla app to get the key to work. I set up the key on my wife's phone and that phone doesn't have the issue. My phone is a Note 20 Ultra 5G. Is there a trick to get it to work?

    Price Check 2018 Model S 100D 23,209 Miles!

    I'm waiting on Tesla to give me my trade-in value. Might be hard to beat with their $5K bonus for trading in unlimited Supercharging. The car is like new. The only change I made was upgraded wheels. Specs Ultra High Fidelity Sound Full Self-Driving Capability Black Brake Calipers Subzero...

    Cream Premium Interior with Walnut Décor or All Black Ebony Décor

    I'm deciding between these two. Does All Black Ebony Décor use plastic trim pieces rather than wood? It appears that carbon fiber is gone.

    Done with Teslas

    I've reached my limit. Since 2015 I have purchased 5 Teslas. For all but one, I paid for full autopilot. I have complained since the first autopilot nag arrived. It makes driving less safe when every minute you are looking at the display flashing instead of keeping your eyes on the road. For...

    Taking one for the team

    I gave up waiting on a refresh. Friday I ordered a Model S 100D with a delivery of late August. Look for a model refresh shortly after my delivery. They changed the nose cone shortly after I bought my last Model S.

    Infiniti The Nagless Choice

    I used to have an Infiniti Q50 and I loved the lack of nagging. The technology wasn't quite up to par. It had trouble with curves. Judging by this video they have improved greatly. The driving conditions are terrible with the raining and poorly visible lane lines but this Q60 does fantastic.

    Sold my TSLA in the pre-market today

    I sold at $212.80. Now I can look back and see that at one point I was down $634,770 in just Tesla stock. I bailed with a $10,980 profit on the sale this morning. Since I started trading in TSLA May 6, 2015 I've netted $120,997. Now I'm a little gun shy about trading in TSLA.

    Paint Protective Coating Check

    I just bought a used (although only 1,100 miles) P85D and it has the clear film bra in the front and on the top of back bumper but I don't know how to check if a paint protective coating has been applied to the rest of the car. Does anyone know how to check?

    The big question. Nag or No Nag?

    I have the update waiting but going out of town so I can't update yet. For those that did update, is there an AP nag? If there is a nag, does the nag go away by itself if the system locks back on the lane lines?

    Elon please veto your lawyers!

    I have test driven almost all the cars out that do lane keeping. I'm very familiar with the good and bad. I would never buy a car with the nag feature. Infiniti and Audi do not nag. Volvo doesn't nag but their lane keeping was terrible. I drove an Infiniti Q50 form Texas to California and the...

    Better Range

    I took my 70D in to get the LTE upgrade and I got the best range ever on my 90 mile return trip home. I have 2,600 miles on the car and I've never come close to getting the range indicated on the speedometer. For the trip home I got 260 Wh/mile when my norm is around 350 Wh/mile. I started out...

    70D AC Problem

    The auto temperature control doesn't work. It can be 100 degrees in the car and the temperature is set to 64 degrees and the fan runs at about a 25% level. I have to move the temperature control to LO to get the fan speed to pick up to about 100%. In effect all I have is a manual AC control...

    VIN Numbers

    I noticed some people post their VIN numbers like this 8456X or 8456XX. Is this being too paranoid or am I missing something? What could someone do sinister with your VIN number? Can't you walk up to any car and get the VIN number?

    Changing Delivery Date

    I ordered a S85D April 6th and the design studio gave me a Late-May delivery date. Then the S70D came out so I switched to it April 8th and the design studio gave me a May delivery date. Now today I checked and it is giving me a June delivery date. Is this normal?

    What if my Tesla got stolen?

    I just ordered a 70D. Say someone carjacks your Tesla what do you do? Can you pull up your app and turn on valet mode? Do you call Tesla and tell them to shut down the car? How does Tesla verify you own the car? My wife said she is concerned about driving an expensive car that car thieves might...
