I ordered my Powerwall in September 2023 and it is installed December 2023. Inspection was done in February 2024 and I paid the invoice after that. The Tax Credit says it should be purchased and installed in 2023 for 2023 tax year eligibility. For Tesla the order is not the same, you order it...

2016 Model X. Last summer I noticed that if sun hitting on the falcon door, it thinks there is an obstacle and shows red. It is interesting that it happens to either door as long as there is sun exposure. I had a similar problem when the car was only a year old and it was happening always on the...

I have an early September 2016 Model X with 6 seats. My golden retriever likes to travel in the middle, when he moves around he pushes the rear cup holders and it opens. Somehow he did something to it, it only opens and closes by hand and does not close all the way. I think something on the back...

I dropped my keyfob from second floor aaand it landed on concrete (murphy's law). It came apart, the bottom cover, battery, left side and its little gullwing door button. Other than the gullwing button, I found all of the pieces and put it together. The key opens the frunk, the trunk and even...

I wanted to change my Solar MicroInverter control frequency to 62.5Hz to fix my UPS issue. I have the latest Telsa App (4.4.4). but I don't have a Request Service option. I resolved my issue by calling the service, but it would be easier if I could just raise the ticket from the app. If I go to...

Connect to Wi-Fi messages keep coming in for my system that was installed in May 2021. We have a cabin in the North Sierras close to Dodge Ridge area. We don’t live there the full time but spend a reasonable time when possible. Having so many trees around means the power is off sometimes 10 mins...

I have a September 2016 Model X that I want to keep until cybertruck shows up, say another 3 years. Since I want to keep my car for while I decided to upgrade my MCU1 to MCU2. When I created the service appointment, service added “Reseal Area Around Both Front Upper Control Arm Ball Joints”...

Most of the discussion about this topics belongs to 2020. I had to get my Solar System installed separately from Tesla (Tesla didn't like shading), Solar was installed in Dec 2020 and my 2 Powerwalls installed in May 2021. I was able to get my Solar installers Developer Key, but I think I need...

Tesla refused to sell me a PV system due to the trees around my house (after the end of January storms, the trees fell all over the place including on my roof, so not an issue anymore), I had to use Enphase as my PV system. The good part, they installed my system within 3 weeks of ordering. With...

The flap that covers the hole which houses the locking mechanism’s hook has been broken. It is spring operated on plastic pins. It is still in the hole and does not block the operation of the trunk. Did you encounter this? I have extended warranty, I wonder if they will cover it or say it is...

My driver’s seat seems to not be able to sit up more. The controls work fine to make it more lay back, but not able to sit up. Have you guys experienced it?

I keep hearing Tesla's Quote would not be what I would be paying since they use a standard cost structure. I was told (by other companies of course) they may look cheaper, but actually they are not. I received the 2 Powerwall quote as below, should I expect a different number in the future?

We have an MX and M3 in our stable so I automatically thought Tesla Energy would be the place to buy my Solar and Battery. I already received some quotes from Solar Installation companies and when I checked the prices at Tesla Energy I was pleasantly surprised that Tesla prices were...

Let me try to explain what I am trying to do. I have a cabin close to Yosemite that we are sheltering during the Covid. This area is pretty prone to PSPS and the last one was 3 days long. As long as I don't charge the car or don't use dryer or dishwasher, my load is around 500W-800Wh (I have an...

My 12V outlet between the front seat is not working even when the car is on. I noticed it when wanted to add air to the tires. the outlet in the trunk is OK, but the cable does not reach to the front so I need that one in the front console. My guess is that the fuse blown. I searched all...

I have a strange issue that I could not solve through multiple resets. First problem is in the middle of the day with a lot of sunlight, my headlights stay on for a while. After 5 minutes or so they turn off. Also time to time the wipers make one sweep without any rain. I noticed when they do...

My wife said a White X and Airstream were on the back of the flatbed and going to the Gilroy Superchargers. I hope everyone is Ok. I always thought that it would be very embarrassing to be towed to the Supercharger.

26000 miles, Fronts are a bit worn off and rears are getting there. Before I head to snowy (crossing my fingers) mountains of California, I would like to get them replaced. Where is the best place to get your tires replaced in Bay Area? I am afraid to take her to anywhere who has no idea how to...

The old Porsches had it, Harley's still have it, we are a tight group of owners who needs a way to say "hey Tesla Buddy". A wink using the driver side headlight and rear brake light could be fun. A double tap on the emergency flasher button or a double pull on the headlight stalk could be a...

I have a small nail in my rear 20" ContiSilent tire. Continental says it is repairable. I called America's Tire in Gilroy, they said due to the tar to glue the foam, it is not possible to repair. I also called Brokaw America's tire, the guy who answered the phone never heard of it. I am not...

I will be traveling to Twain Harte during the xmas holiday. My destination charging is a iffy (I am going to a cabin which I have not ever been). The closest Supercharger is Manteca. It is fine if I don't have much driving in the town or drive to Dodge Ridge. I noticed that Chicken Ranch Casino...

I am trying to find some technical details about this bus, Avenue EV by TEMSA. It says it can fully charge in 8 mins. Which can be planned along it route I guess. Anyone has seen this? Turkey unveils its first fully homegrown electric bus Onur

I drive about 200 miles a week on highway. I noticed that after topping the cold air pressure to 42psi for all tires. My tires slowly go down to 40 at the end of the week. Well, left rear goes to 38 and always have 2psi difference with the other ones. I might have a nail in that one. I was...

I have a ChargePoint CHaDeMo/Combo DC Fast Charger at work which is supposed to charge at 50 kwh. I use it with ChaDeMo adapter my charge rate is 40 kwh. Does any know if it is the car's limit or CHaDeMo limit?

I don't want to talk about who crashed their car when using it or horror stories. I commute on 101 in the Bay Area and time to time I turn my autopilot on. Here are a couple just be aware notes; If the driver in the next lane steers towards your lane, the car will not move to the left to keep...

We live in Morgan Hill area. The temp in my garage does not fall below 65-70. We were at Carmel Valley this morning, right after we drove off the hotel, "Seven" started to complain the right front tire is at 37psi. I am already worried about not having a spare, that warning did not go well. We...

Another interesting one. My Wall Charger is connected to an 100A subpanel. The garage plugs are on the actual service panel with a GFCI breaker that came with the house. My Garage GFCI has always been very sensitive. For example when I start my table saw it may trip or little fountain may...

We have these DC Fast Chargers at work. All leaf owners are using them without any issues. Another fellow Tesla owner and I tried to figure out how to use them. They come with two cables, CHAdeMO and Combo. CHAdeMO is standard, I may have to buy one, but the combo socket was interesting. the top...

There are multiple rate plans that PG&E created if you fit into a specific category. For example, you can be on EV-A rate if you have a EV vehicle and charge in the middle of the night. It clearly the best plan to choose. Or if you have a solar system and you choose E6 (discontinued now- Time of...

It looks like it takes at least 3 weeks to get the charger due to high demand. I started to check the installers to get ready for my X75D delivery in August. Tesla site had multiple installers and I contacted Main Stream Electric and Anthony Lewis Inc. for quotes based on the review they got...

Maybe this should go to "nice to have things" section. Since some of the 75D order start to get VINs, I keep going and checking My Tesla daily. I thought what would happen if I download the Tesla App. After I entered my credentials, it said you don't have vehicle attached to this account. I...

In March, bunch of us who ordered a 70D got a call from Tesla and offered an April delivery if we upgrade to 90D. On my part, it was too much of a difference so I did not take the bait. If you agreed on the offer, did you get your 90D in April? Onur

once a year I take a 3 week vacation to go to Europe. We either fly from SF or LA and park our car in a long term parking close to the airport. My Mercury Mariner Hybrid failed to start twice after we were back. In the first time I called my roadside assistance to give me a jumpstart, in the...

I wonder how hard would it be to get noise cancelling in a Tesla. Microphones are there along with the processing power and the speakers. Since it will be cancelling mostly road and wind noise, it does not have to be very adaptive to different environments like a Bose noise cancelling headphones.

I have a dilemma. I ordered a 70D, no Premium Package or the upgraded sound. I got rest of the options. My problem is that my lease for my ML350 ends in May. I need a vehicle to get me to the delivery of 70D, which could be anytime after November (Best case) I was wondering if I should buy a...

I know, I know I need to check with an electrician. I wanted to be armed with information before I talk to someone. I have a solar system on top of my detached garage. The main panel is at the main house. Sunpower added a 100A sub panel next to the main panel and have 12 gauge cables running to...

I just received an email from Tesla that says CA rebate of $2,500 will be decided on income level. Well, I don't think many Tesla buyers will pass that test. One of my self justification for buying a Tesla is going away.:mad: Onur
