    Blown two tires

    Always seems to happen at the least convenient time. 1215am on Saturday night (Sunday am) in Beverly Hills. Hit a colossal pothole. Front and rear passenger tires blown. 21" rims come into their own - what a pain and only 3k miles on the car. AAA was pathetic - couldn't deal with the car and...

    I understand "Rated Range" but PLEASE explain this to me

    So I have a p90d and drove from marina Del Rey to San Diego. Did it on tacc mostly. Was left with 40% battery left. Was pretty happy. But generally I never average less than 425kw/h in every day driving even without hitting insane mode much. I find that range mode helps. Also big thing here -...

    HPWC charger

    HPWC charger I recently bought a brand new HPWC from Tesla. It was installed in my garage and then removed after only a couple of charges due to the local inspector saying my circuit panel couldn't support it, so i have to revert back to a regular NEMA outlet. It works perfectly - has a...

    Vandalized

    That's weird though - there was no other impact...would have meant an SUV hit it and scratched it and went off but wouldnt there by a bump or ding?

    Vandalized

    So so so gutted. My P90D got scratched when parked on the street on Saturday night. It's a quiet street, no one comes down it. It's kind of like a back alley way in a very private neighborhood. What do you guys think? Easily repairable or a big job? Should i go through insurance?

    P90D energy usage after 7.0 update

    Guys, I am noticing i am barely getting to the 300 kwHr/mile (or whatever the metric is) for regular driving. I use surface streets mostly and i dont recall ever really getting that kind of efficiency. Maybe on a freeway. For example today on my 5 mile surface street journey to work, without...

    Noise akin to the idling noise in an ice vehicle

    Got it thanks. Weird because it never happened in the first month or so. Its kinda irritating.

    Noise akin to the idling noise in an ice vehicle

    I just recently noticed a noise in my new p90d that is akin to the idling noise in a gas car when you turn the Ac up. I can be at a stop sign and it feels like there is something working harder than normal. It might go away if I reduce Ac or get to a ground halt. Is that normal?

    [Resolved] Help! Having a nightmare at the delivery center

    I think at this time the matter is closed. Spoke to Tesla's regional service manager. She said the national team was aware. She was very nice and understanding and ultimately apologetic. There's not a lot more to say on the matter and as a gesture of goodwill, she is letting me keep the two...

    [Resolved] Help! Having a nightmare at the delivery center

    no there isn't any logic. I never made any changes after the order confirmation. the process must involve some human order input on tesla's side because they omitted the calipers. no favors need doing, they just need to deliver what i ordered. - - - Updated - - - i made no changes after the...

    [Resolved] Help! Having a nightmare at the delivery center

    So they made the mistake. There were no changes after the order confirmation. Yet the design book on my tesla didnt have the red calipers on despite it being on the order conf. I made no changes and they omitted the calipers. Not life threatening or life ending which is why i was fine with the...

    Help! Question re: 85D/90D vs P85D/P90D

    I had the same decision having come from the 911 S cab. I ended up going with the P90D no ludicrous mode. I wanted the stiffer ride. All I'll say is that I'm happy. I like the sporty set up. I also would say definitely get the 90. The range never seems to be anywhere near the rated range. For...

    [Resolved] Help! Having a nightmare at the delivery center

    Ok so now I'm mildly ticked off. Tesla (the delivery specialist) called this am to say he received the email I sent which proved the red calipers were on my order confirmation. He said the email was very "helpful" and he'd get back to me. At 5pm he called back and said he had really gone to...

    Tesla app doesn't connect to new car

    Hey guys just got my car. Any idea how I can make it connect to the app? They said it could take 24 hours which it has been but no dice. It intermittently tells me there is no car associated with my login and then sometimes it logs in and the dial keeps spinning as it's thinking but no data...

    Guys Major major major update I was looking through my files this am and guess what? The red calipers WERE on my final order confirmation. The tesla dealership gave me the total run around yesterday and they were wrong!!!! I've emailed them (without saying I told you so) but let's see what...

    [Resolved] Help! Having a nightmare at the delivery center

    Honestly for now I'm a bit bummed but what can you do. It's definitely a blemish on the car in my opinion. I think part of the problem is that this car is one you build yourself from the bottom up and you want it to be perfect. Especially when the cost of the additional change was zero. It would...

    The only difference between the two calipers is the color. Same performance thankfully

    Apparently it's $3k to do it and they didn't want to. Crazy since I have an x ressie top and if we hadn't sorted it out I may have cancelled it too.

    [Resolved] Help! Having a nightmare at the delivery center

    The issue was that I asked the tesla rep about this a thousand times and the configuration changed at the last minute from the 90 to the p90 parrly because of that cosmetic difference. I asked her to check it over and she said it was OK. She told me the cost was free with the spoiler. Yes...

    A compromise was reached. They're going to waive a couple of service costs and instead I can use the money to paint them Annoying since it was a free option but I still love the bugger

    My new p90d doesn't have the red calipers. They say it wasn't on the order but I could swear it was and checked on the phone that it was included with the salesperson (who ironically is now in Bali having left tesla). The spoiler is there, which I paid for. The spoiler costs a grand and the...

    Besides taking a massive sedative and sleeping for 24 hours, any ideas on how to keep myself from obsessing over what happens tomorrow am when I pick up my spanking new P90D? By the way I got midnight silver, grey 21" turbines, and every option except ludicrous mode and the cold weather package.
