Now that there is essentially no scheduled services for Teslas, has anyone started their own routine for such items as lubricating door hinges, trunk/frunk latches etc? How about those moving parts in the FWDs? Simple items. Thanks for comments and directions.

Need to replace rear tire, possible damage to rim too. Bruised on a large rock coming down tight road out of the Sandias. Chuck our of side wall near rim. Some cords showing. We are visiting and would like a recommendation for a good tire shop including alignment that hopefully is familiar...

We want to take our X into Chaco Canyon. We can charge in Farmington on our way in. Coming out we would like to continue on to Albuquerque. An overnight charge from even a 120 V source in Cuba would get us into ABQ easily. The route is 224 miles Farmington/CCanyon/ABQ. Doable but tight...

Now that sentry mode with multiple cameras are functional what are owners using for flash drives? I have a 32GB Sandisk that works and was IMO fine for the single camera but decided to purchase a 256GB to accommodate the added data from the additional cameras. I purchased a Samsung USB 3.1 Bar...

Has the Sororro NM supercharger been installed yet. I have looked through this topic and find no information. Thank you

Last year we stayed at the Ghost Ranch and charged our X using a level 1 power source they have for their golf carts. It was a dodgy setup at best. Neither Charge Point nor Plug Share show any sources for EVs in the area. Has anyone any alternative suggestions for charging in that area? Thanks,

Does anyone know if there is any place near or in Chaco Canyon where one can charge their EV? Plug Share and Charge Point do not show any sources in the region. Farmington and ABQ are all some distance away. Has anyone gone in from the Gallup side? Cuba looks to be the possibility if the is...

We are driving to NM next week and plan to spend some time in Mesilla. Charge Point lists a private level 2 connection in Mesilla and a couple of open connections in Las Cruces. Has anyone used these connections or have suggestions or comments on them? Thank you

Yesterday Tesla announced, per Electrec, that the annual maintenance is program is being discontinued. For those of us that have pre-paid for the annual maintenance, where does this move leave us and our couple thousand dollars? The local SC had no information to offer about except a mother ship...

I do not like the open grain finish on the wood trim. Much prefer the lacquer or equivalent kind of finish. Has anyone refinished their wood trim in that manner? I see there are some wood appliqué kits out there but do not feel up to trying to install it and have not found anyone in Portland...

As you can see in the snap, The black plastic wheel well opening strip is cracked. Rt front wheel. First what is that strip called? It looks as though I can just pull the strip out and snap in a replacement one? Do I need a p/n for the strip in order to order one from local SC or will they...

On V-8, the typical vampire draw was between 2 and 3 miles per 24 hours of sitting. Since V-9 was downloaded about a month ago, the vampire draw has jumped to about 9 miles lost per 24 hours. The car is always plugged in with battery level set to about 257 miles/about 87%. It generally...

I just installed a COzero dash cam in our MX. Installation was a breeze. However making the Wlan connection to the iPhone took a while, instructions for this step are scarce. With the iPone connected to the dash cam, I can see the files/recorded on the phone however when I click download of a...

This was found on the Teslarati site as well as TMC. Dashcam for Model X AP2 – COzero International It looks interesting but has little information on the camera itself, namely resolution and such. Installation looks very easy and integrates into the mirror housing. Does anyone have any...

We are evaluating a route from Portland, OR, to the SW and would like to go via Winnemucca, NV. We see that there is supposed to be a public (?) charger in Burns, OR, and a charger at "Say When", Mcdermitt, NV. Does anyone know anything about the Burns charger, exact location, level...

I went to the dump / recycle center to dispose of some waste yesterday and asked the attendant to weigh the car on the way out. The weight was 5,400 pounds. I weigh about 180 so that leaves about 5,200 pounds for the car. There were a number of odds and ends in the car including tow ball...

MS 70D, March 2016 build, Titanium Metallic, Tan Next Gen seats, Less than 12K miles AP1, LED ultra bright after market bulbs, Pano roof. Located in Portland, Oregon. $59,000. We have an MX on order.

A few days ago I allowed a friend to test drive our MS/AP1. As we were returning home, he observed that he felt the car was “looking out” for him. What he had noticed was how the IC image of the car while picking up and signaling close proximity of parked cars and other objects as we went...

How one goes about handling the transaction when the car you are selling a car you have that you are paying for on a contract with a loan company? Does the prospective buyer settle with the contract holder first so that the title is clear? What instrument is best to receive for payment...

How to handle sale of a Tesla that is on contract

The first mod we made to our MS was to replace the LED interior lights with the Abstract Ocean set. We have an MX on order and wonder if the Tesla is still using the weak LED interior lights? Thank you

With AP1, when initiating summon, must the front wheels be oriented straight ahead? Our parking slot is in an underground parking garage and I have been yet to use summon because of the tight quarters. On the other hand it would be handy to have the car pull out a far enough to easily get in...

Yesterday afternoon while driving on a two way city street, a pedestrian crossed about 15 yards in front of us. I was surprised to note that our MS with AP1 began slowing as we approached the pedestrian and then returned to the set speed, TACC set at 20mph, when the pedestrian reached the curb...

Tesla rotated my tires today. With 7,800 miles, all four tires measure 7mm outer side, 7mm middle and 6mm inside. These are Michelin Primacy, 19" tires on a MS-70D. Close to 80% of the miles on the car are highway miles as opposed to local miles. Tire pressure has been kept at about 45 psi...

We are putting together a trip from PDX to Phoenix and would like to take 89 off I-5 at Shasta to Reno NV via Susanville. It looks like a beautiful route but it is 214 miles Supercharger to Supercharger which leaves little room for MS70D with a range off about 235 miles. The Red Lion in...

It looks as though there is some outgassing from the interior materials that is leaving a slight fog on the interior of the windows, especially visible on the windshield. What are the preferred methods for cleaning the inside of windows? Thanks, MS70D

I am not talking about exiting/entering a parking slot by commanding the car to go straight in or out of the parking slot. Our parking slot is in an underground parking garage that has a 19 foot wide open lane between the two rows of perpendicular parking slots, each roughly 9 feet across...

I believe there is a thread somewhere on this but have not found it. I know Tesla has a kit and there are some other kits, compressor and some sort of injectable plug material. While researching repair kits, a NAPA salesman said that "Slime" required the tire to be removed before injecting it...

i have looked through the various threads and found a few references to battery conditioning relative to starting in cold weather, i.e. prewarming the battery, but I have not found just how to do it. I have looked in the manual but found no mention. Is this step no longer necessary? Thanks

Our 3.5 year old granddaughter lives with us and we are taking delivery of a MS next week. She is a 32 lb ball of energy and sometimes manages to get into the front seats our mini van. No unusual behavior just a challenge for us to control. Not much mischief can happen in an old ICE...
