My 2017 Model X in Hong Kong just had the same issues at 60300km. Tesla replaced the “Intermediate Shaft - Steering Column - Lower” under the Extended Warranty, which resolved the issue.

I brought a Model 3 with similar damage to Kamwai Tyre Service Limited in Chai Wan last week, but with damage across the fender, door and bumper. Reshaping+repainting cost HK$12700 for all three parts, took four days. I'd estimate HK$5000-7000 for a single door? Google Maps

Reminder for any HK drivers willing to contribute to fleet learning and improve Autopilot in HK by sharing road and video data from their AP cameras with Tesla: Tick the boxes under "Settings" -> "Safety and Security" -> "Data Sharing"

Lol... interesting. I (apparently wrongly) assumed you'd always have to be right next to the port you'd want to open. For example a passive, low frequency RFID tag or NFC smart tag in the port and a reader in the charge cable handle would have sufficiently limited range (5-20cm) to only...

I was about to supercharge my Model X, brought the Tesla charge cable close to the port and pushed the button. Not only my charge port, but also the port on a (unoccupied, presumably locked) neighbouring Model S opened up. Did the other owner forget his key in the car? But even then, isn't...

With Energy Saving Mode turned ON and "Always Connected" unticked my X 90D is losing 13-15km/day. Just remembered signing up for teslalog.com - the constant API calls to the car might be causing the large drain. Disabled it now, hope it reduces drain to normal levels.

I can confirm this works for me as well. I placed it the top right corner of the windshield, over the drivers seat. Perfect location, doesn't impair visibility at all and not a hassle to install.

Hehe whoops, now I see what you were getting at. I admit I was slightly puzzled there :)

If you trust Tesla's Speedometer, then the measurements in the above chart are quite accurate, as the timings were measured frame by frame in Premiere. Main Problem is determining the kickdown point at the start, although there's usually a spike in the audio track when the foot slams the...

Because those numbers only mark a single point on this chart:

I've scoured YouTube but couldn't find a single video of the Model X 75D or X 90D accelerating from 0-60 mph / 0-100 kmh, only clips of ludicrous X P90Ds. I'm putting together an Excel chart with acceleration curves for the various models based on acceleration videos. Can someone with a X75D or...

Sorry, I just realised that in my haste I made a few mistakes in terms of ranking/sort order, but the actual dimensions remain correct.

Full width of various cars with mirrors extended: (blue color: moved up a rank compared to the previous list) 1870 mm = Toyota Alphard 2112 mm = Volvo XC90 (2003) 2130 mm = Mercedes S-Class 2169 mm = BMW 7-Series 2170 mm = BMW X6 2187 mm = Tesla Model S 2141 mm = Mercedes GLE 2140 mm = Volvo...

Width of various cars with mirrors folded: 1850 mm = Toyota Alphard 1897 mm = Volvo XC90 (2003) 1899 mm = Mercedes S-Class 1902 mm = BMW 7-Series 1964 mm = Tesla Model S 1969 mm = BMW X6 2003 mm = Mercedes GLE 2009 mm = Volvo XC90 2062 mm = Hummer H2 2070 mm = Tesla Model X 2073 mm = Land...

Finally an article that clears up the situation :)

There's a thread on the HK AP "Hardware 1.0" issue here: AutoPilot 2.0 on Confirmed Order

In the conference call Elon stated that the navigation computer was separate from the infotainment system: "You don't want to be crashing the car because you went to the wrong website". Of course that doesn't rule out an upgrade to the NVIDIA Tegra unit that powered the infotainment system...

Yep, I also see that. While the Hong Kong homepage does state "Full Self-Driving Hardware on All Cars" now, it worries me that they updated the order description to specifically state "Hardware 1". It's all a bit strange, Hong Kong is the only site to show that. I switched through nearly all...

Nope, I actually did mean the DRIVE PX 2. I didn't know about the DGX-1 though, so now my confusion is complete o_O Actually, after reading the article on anandtech.com where the Titan and Drive PX 2 are mentioned, I now again believe both the Titan X and the DRIVE PX 2 are intended to be used...

I see! That's excellent information, thanks for clearing this up. I did suspect that, but I couldn't find any articles stating that the PX 2 was only for development. Even in the NVIDIA CES presentation they made it sound like a Drive PX 2 was required in every car for autonomous driving. That...

Here it is! Just amazing! Full Self-Driving Hardware on All Teslas

Posted a relevant thread here: US$15.000 NVIDIA DRIVE PX 2 supercomputer in every Tesla? With that knowledge it seems to justify the increased cost to upgrade. EDIT: I'm wrong, the NVIDIA DRIVE PX 2 is apparently only for development. The actual consumer unit will be much smaller and cheaper.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but from what I've been picking up, the new autonomous capabilities in every new Tesla vehicle are powered by an NVIDIA Drive PX 2 processing unit. Each unit is liquid cooled supercomputer and as powerful as "150 Macbook Pros" (quote from NVIDIA CEO at CES 2016). BUT...

I assume most of us have ordered our X with the Autopilot upgrade. The question now is if we will receive the regular Autopilot, which we paid HK$19400 for but now is apparently included standard on all cars: Or if our order will be upgraded to "Enhanced Autopilot" that will probably be...

New options on the Tesla site, "Enhanced Autopilot" and "Full Self-Driving Capability":

We HAVE to get together to campaign for the Transport Department to adapt their regulations to acommodate for next-gen (level 4 and 5) autonomy now. Just look at what's coming:

A That's quite a well made site! I added my reservations+order to the tracker.

Is it easy to clean up the perforated seats after a beach day? I imagine sand particles could get trapped underneath the leather.

I'm wondering which variant, 6 or 7-seater, will be in higher-demand/have higher resale value in Hong Kong? There are threads on this already, but not specifically on resale value, especially in HK. So far I'm guessing that the 6-seater would be in higher demand due to it's roomy interior...

I'm wondering whether it's worth it to purchase the Autopilot upgrade. I commute every day from Sai Kung to Chai Wan. It'd be great if Autopilot could take over the majority of that, as it's all straight apart from 5 roundabouts and 6 lane changes that I'd have to manually navigate. What have...

Also interested in the dash cam install, would be great if someone can share the shop info.
