    Constant cracking sound in speakers; sporadic loss of audio

    Tesla support told me this is supposed to be fixed in 2023.12. There is currently no ETA for this release.

    SiriusXM Volume Scratchy

    I was told by Tesla support that this is targeted to be fixed in 2023.12. No ETA for this release.

    Front License Plate Solutions

    From what I have seen, it seems that the Torklift bracket is more of a semi-permanent solution that you couldn't easily pop on and off several times per week. Is that true? I liked the magnet solution because I was hoping for something I could put on during the week, but easily pull off on weekends.

    Front License Plate Solutions

    Thanks for the update. Are you driving at highway speeds with the plate and have had no issues? I am thinking of doing the same, but need it for more than just low-speed local driving (mentioned by teslatap). Do do you have any more information on the magnets that you used? The original link...

    Must have accessories?

    Your picture makes that mount look really low profile (1-2" mount arm), but the pictures on Amazon make it look like the mount arm is 4-5 inches long. I am looking for a very low profile suction cup mount (worried about 3M tape marking up the piano black finish if I remove it) that I can put in...

    Show off your aftermarket wheels.

    Thanks! Instead of dremeling the center caps, I just used a grind/sand bit with my drill to sand them back a millimeter or two. They were then able to fit without having to shave all the way through the cap. I didn't do anything with the hub setting screws. Should I have?

    To Opticoat Pro or not to Opticoat Pro, that is the question.

    I decided to go with full frontal (as well as the rear luggage panel to prevent scratches from the kids getting out of the 3rd row seats) XPEL Ultimate wrap and Opti-Coat Pro. I had the work done by Chicago Auto Pros in the Chicago area (Glen Ellyn) and couldn't be happier with the results. I...

    Show off your aftermarket wheels.

    Here is a picture of my 20"x9" TSW Nurburgring Gunmetal wheels on a Midnight Silver Metallic 85D. I ordered the wheels from Jason at GetYourWheels.com and the experience was excellent. He answered my numerous questions extremely quickly and was helpful throughout the entire process. He also...

    Show off your aftermarket wheels.

    @linkster - Can you share the name of the company you used or an email address? I was just about to place an order for my 20" TSW Nurburgrings from Online shop 3D wheel center caps as recommended on this thread, but would prefer to order from someone in the US as they would likely ship faster...

    Angry about HPWC replacement cost

    To clarify earlier posts, it is no longer possible to buy the HPWC with the car, right? I am awaiting the delivery of my 85D, but it is a little disheartening to hear all these stories of HPWC failures. A 4-year warranty would be great, but I am likely stuck with the 1-year warranty since the...

    Taking Delivery With Winter Tires

    Others have already stated this, but I wanted to confirm that delivery with winter tires is not currently an option. You must take delivery with all season tires and the service center can swap them before delivery. You can't avoid paying for the extra tires.

    Help an Indecisive Owner Select a Wheel Color

    Here is another 20x9" silver wheel option that I think looks great. These are the Avant Garde m310's in Hyper Silver. My understanding is that the cast AG wheels are a little heavier and less durable than the rotary forged TSW Nurburgrings, so I have a hard time paying the same price for those...

    Taking Delivery With Winter Tires

    Thanks for the info. The actual goal was to end up with one set of 20" aftermarket wheels with all season tires that I use all year. I intend to sell the 19" stock wheels and the tires (and, potentially, the TPMS sensors). The reason for wanting winter tires at delivery is I thought it might...

    Taking Delivery With Winter Tires

    It was actually a sales rep from the Tesla showroom that suggested this as an option. It isn't the end of the world if it isn't possible, but I thought it may be easier to sell them with the winter tires. Maybe enough people run the 19s with all seasons to not make much of a difference. How...

    Taking Delivery With Winter Tires

    I ordered my MS with 19" wheels because I intend to get aftermarket wheels for the summer. Has anyone had luck getting Tesla to deliver the 19s with the winter tires instead of the all seasons? My DS said he has never heard of this request and doesn't think it would be allowed. I have been...

    Help an Indecisive Owner Select a Wheel Color

    Are those the TSW Nurburgring Mirrored Face wheels? Are you happy with them? Are the wheels actually mirrored/reflective or are they a more traditional machined look? One of my hesitations is that I don't want a full chromed wheel look. Thanks!

    Help an Indecisive Owner Select a Wheel Color

    I am back and forth on this choice and figured I would let the community help me decide. The challenge is that I have not been able to see either option other than these simulated views, so I am struggling to decide on the best option. I think the mirrored finish goes well with the chrome on...

    TSW Nurburgring 20" as All-Season Wheels

    Thanks for the info. I definitely will find a different tire shop. Has anyone seen the Nurburgring wheels on a Midnight Silver Metallic Model S? I am trying to decide between the matte gunmetal and the mirrored face options. I am curious how closely the gunmetal matches the Tesla gray and...

    TSW Nurburgring 20" as All-Season Wheels

    Thanks for all the info. My local tire shop told me that 245/40-20 tires are too small for 20" wheels. I assume that is not correct because I have heard several people using this tire size. Are others using larger sizes for more sidewall/protection? Does that cause rubbing on the wheel well at...

    TSW Nurburgring 20" as All-Season Wheels

    I have read that several people have chosen 20" wheels as a good balance between the 19" and 21" options offered by Tesla. I ordered my 85D with the stock 19" wheels because I didn't want to deal with pothole issues in Chicago and didn't want to swap out the wheels every winter. Can any owners...

    Anyone with a steel grey Model S on TSportline 19" TST wheels?

    Thank you. This is very helpful and the black wheels look great! What level of tint do you have on the windows?

    Anyone with a steel grey Model S on TSportline 19" TST wheels?

    i would love to see another shot or two if you get a chance. I have similar concerns that the metallic gray TSTs won't looks great with the new MS grey (Midnight Silver Metallic). I would like to do something other than standard silver, but I am not completely sold on the black look. Can you...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Is that a P85D? I ordered my S85D on April 11th and confirmed on April 18th. It said Late May Delivery at order, but switched to June by the time I confirmed. MyTesla is still showing June and my DS said to conservatively expect the middle of June. VIN is 852XX. Maybe the shipping to...
