    PM3 to Model S LR or Plaid?

    I made the switch from a M3P to a refresh LR. Was a previous S owner prior to the M3P. Very happy to be back in the S, small things collectively make a big difference for me. I never used track mode, and performance of the LR is more than enough for me.

    New Headlights and Taillights Confirmed?

    My guess (purely speculation) is that Tesla will use the same new headlights for the domestic market. Given the low volume of the S/X line, and the fact that the lights seem to align with the 3/Y program - we will probably see this rolled out soon. Too bad I missed it. That said, I'm glad to...

    New Headlights and Taillights Confirmed?

    Looks like Tesla confirmed the new taillights, as well as improved headlights. I really don't care about the taillights, but I do wish I had the improved headlights.. Link to story below. https://driveteslacanada.ca/model-x/tesla-unveils-new-ccs2-charge-port-in-refresh-model-s-x/

    No Power Steering

    I had the same issue on my 21 refresh S, except my car would not switch into gear. Attached are pictures of the alerts. Interestingly, occurred on a day it was below freezing in NY. Was towed to the service center, they replaced the wire harness, seems fine now.

    Sorry, haven't noticed it (although it certainly could be there). I don't have my car currently, but I can tell you the BMW from enterprise has a clear display 😉. Will check as soon as I get it back. Tesla did call me today, have a bad wire harness, car should be ready by tomorrow afternoon. So...

    2021+ Model S and Model S Plaid Refresh Issues Thread

    I get to join this thread. Two month old LR, no real issues until last night. Got into my car after work, list of errors lit up like a Christmas tree. No power steering, wouldn't shift into gear. Towed to service center. No report on what's wrong, just a promise to update me via text. They did...

    Tesla is testing new tail lights for the Model S refresh.

    Look good, although nothing that makes me regret taking delivery last month. The diffused look will be nice, however this seems like a relatively minor update. Happy to see continued progress on the platform.

    2021.44.5 incoming…

    Indeed it does! I was pleasantly surprised by it this morning. It calibrated during my morning commute (around 42 miles) - and made a positive difference in cabin noise. Seemed to remove the "edge" off of some rumble prone roads, and improved the sound of the stereo. It isn't dramatic in my...

    Model S Plaid heating system sucks!!!

    I mean the new model, introduced with the plaid. Palladium version. In the forums, its seems like refresh is the term of choice, although I agree that Palladium is really the best descriptor.

    Model S Plaid heating system sucks!!!

    The footwell area is markedly improved in comparison to the 2016 MS I previously owned. Hope that helps

    Model S Plaid heating system sucks!!!

    I don't have a plaid, but do have a refresh LR which has the same cabin heating system. Works very well for me, car seems much better insulated in the area near the drivers pedals than previous models... Agree that you should make an appointment Good luck!

    Definitive Answer Needed: Driving Feel b/w Model 3P vs. REFRESHED Model S LR

    I just transitioned from a 2020 M3P to a Model S LR. (Went from an S, to a 3P, and back to the S) The S ride is much more composed and it makes highway commuting far more comfortable. Although the acceleration to 60 is the same by the numbers, the 3P felt quicker to me subjectively. After 60...

    My LR Blue/White/19 delivery was delayed to Monday...car was stuck in NJ transit hub.

    2021+ Model S Refresh - white interior thread

    Agree - definitely no rhyme or reason. This is my 3rd tesla purchase personally, but my family has bought 8 over the years. I almost purchased a Taycan last week, but the value proposition of the S is still too strong. Plus the dealer wanted 10k over MSRP. Tesla drives me nuts, but I have...
