    Round trip from Seattle to Mt. Rainier - doable in X 75D?

    Last year I went up to Paradise with my son. We spent the night at Alexander's and charged. They have two Tesla chargers but only 30A each I think. On the way up you will eat charge. On the way down you will generate energy (I think I was +5% from top to bottom). I have a 75, and so you have...

    Seats ticking?

    I never asked them. You could always email or call them to find out though.

    Seats ticking?

    Finally got my new seat replaced. Took 2 hours and the sound is gone. The bulletin is RONC9827006695. Seat ordered 11/18 and delivered to Tesla Bellevue on 12/28, installed a week later.

    Seats ticking?

    same sound just different ways to reproduce the problem. It's basically the same issue. In the past few weeks my sound has gotten much worse, more frequent and I too can push the seat down like you and make the noise. - - - Updated - - - Not to worry. I could not either. But the sound is...

    Seats ticking?

    In my case, I have the stock seats (not NextGen). The NextGen were an option I didn't pick. Here is what the service invoices says: Concern: Client reports consistent clicking/ticking noise from driver's seat while driving. Corrections: 1st Row Seat Assemblies &...

    Seats ticking?

    I took my car to the Bellevue service center this morning. The shop foreman took a ride with me and witnessed the noise. He told me Tesla just released a bulletin last week documenting the problem and a fix. Apparently the seat bottom went though a design change where they modified the size of...

    Seats ticking?

    I got my wife to drive around, and laid flat on the floor in the rear seat with a flashlight and my ear to the ground. Sound is coming from the right rail area of the driver seat. Also got a recording. You can hear the metallic ticking sound throughout the recording. It happens about 8 times...

    Better range after 7.0 upgrade?

    I have a 70D so not sure if the Sleep Efficiency works for me. But the A/C and regen could be it. I noticed that the better Wh/mi is usually when I spend more time in traffic

    Seats ticking?

    Push the seat all the way up and backward. Grab flashlight and look. Lots of cables and such that could tick if in just the right position.

    Better range after 7.0 upgrade?

    I've noticed in my past few commutes that I'm getting better range at short distances. Usually at 330wh/m and now around 300wh/m. This is with my morning / evening commute about 12 miles 1 way. Anyone else see similar?

    Seats ticking?

    In my case the sounds comes from underneath the seat. I looked down there and saw a mess of cables, many had come loose from their zip tie attachments. I'm not 100% sure if this is it, but it seems like the most likely candidate. When my wife is driving (different seat position) no noise. So...

    iOS 9 and Bluetooth

    Anyone else notice that streaming is completely flakey with iOS 9? Phone calls work fine, but Bluetooth is constant disconnecting streaming from Spotify or Apple Music. Rebooting Telsa Screen will fix for a while but then problem comes back.

    Model S Order & Delivery Tracker

    Funny, that's exactly what happened. The status flipped back an hour later. Today my Delivery Specialist told me it was loaded on a truck last night. Arrives in Seattle Friday or Sat and I'll get it on Tuesday. - - - Updated - - - Awesome news!

    Well if it makes you feel any better, mine just changed back to In Production. So it's going backwards.

    Model S Order & Delivery Tracker

    My Car went into production on 7/15 (on or about). The web site flipped on 7/13 but the email from Tesla and my delivery specialized arrived on 7/15 and 7/16. So who knows. My car is still in production. On 7/22 my delivery specialist told me the car was in the middle stages. On Thursday 7/23...

    Tesla Lease offer 70D: reasonable or not?

    Thanks for putting this together. Big error in your spreadsheet There is an error here. You have to divide the interest by 12. Right now if you add the principal and the outlay you'll see the loan payment greatly exceeds the loan (50K + 40K = 90K and Loan is for ~72K). If you correct the...
