    Windshield wiper arm scraping metal under the hood

    It’s caused by worn out bushing causing excessive play. Only cure was a replacement unit. Adjustment of the hood would do little good. Good news is that it’s an easy DIY job.

    I need to pull one of my brake calipers in order to service it, but due to COVID lockdown in my area, I can’t just drop in at the local auto hardware store to pickup parts. I will need new copper crush washers for the brake hose, but I have no idea what size they are? Anyone know the correct...

    SpaceX Internet Satellite Network: Starlink

    Is it not a dangerous assumption? As the price of launching payloads into space continues to drop, I would expect the average satellite price to drop significantly. First there is economies of scale. More demand will open up for more competition and more efficient production methods of...

    Battery died with 10 km Typical Range left?

    Estimating the state of charge is not an exact science. Nothing to do with Tesla. It’s a fact of life that affect all batteries to various degrees. The battery management system can only try to predict how much is left. It can’t estimate it accurately. And any battery powered device needs to be...

    My request that the Arizona Attorney General's office investigate Tesla's changes to Ludicrous Mode

    I recently upgraded to the latest version of windows on my laptop. It slowed down my computer and some features was apparently removed. How do I sue them to make Microsoft re-instate the speed and features? I am not interesting in downgrading since it would remove a security patch that is...

    Tesla Wifi Sux

    Are you running firmware 7.6.8 (the latest version) on your airport extremes? I have found it to be extremely buggy when running multiple airports. Rolled back both at home and at work. And all problems disappeared.

    Autosteer on local Roads Videos (17.7.2)

    The software update screen tells you that speed is limited to 35mph on local roads with AP2. Which is different to AP1, where speed on local roads does not suffer the same limitation. But that still not overrules the manual. AP is meant for highway driving. Take it out on local roads at your own...

    Autopilot safety statistics

    The current official number of 1 fatality per. X million miles driven is a fact. It is not like many other fatality statistics estimated. Meaning it can be accepted as the absolute truth today. No confidence intervals, no 'buts'. However, if you want to predict the future fatality rate? It is...

    Autopilot safety statistics

    Even if you limit the comparison to autopilot Tesla's driven on autopilot versus autopilot Tesla's manually driven on highways you would end up with the same problem. Autopilot is most like disabled due to bad weather conditions. Or autopilot users might decide longer trips due to the reduced...

    Autopilot safety statistics

    It is a terrible article. One of the (many) mistakes: Quote; But Bubslug, apparently not a statistician, didn’t include a confidence range. Due to the low number of vehicle-years for the Tesla, its confidence range would have been huge—something on the order of 0 to 75. /Quote If Tesla's...

    Day 7 of my S90D and a whole heap of questions....

    1. No 2. Never had that problem 3. Never had that problem, but I drive with creep engaged. 4. Water runs of when you drive. So not really a problem. 5. Press the brake pedal hard and a 'H' will appear. You have engaged hill hold. Car won't move until you touch the accelerator.

    Saturday morning decisions....

    Two iconic cars, both with an aluminum chassis. But it is a pretty easy choice these days. 45 year old cars are not much fun in the cold ;-)

    Denmark: P90D sticker price to increase 180% on Jan 1 2016

    It is quite simple (and sad). The following Quote is from the danish minister of taxation: "Electric cars have for a long time been better positioned than other cars by being completely exempt from the registration tax. Many regular Danes have a hard time understanding why they should pay the...

    I know the danish laws well enough to see where your case is heading in Denmark. Piece of advice: Laywers are first and foremost salespeople. The product they sell is billable hours. So be carefull when you go shopping. Some companies will sugercoat the truth in order to sell their product...

    Letter To Elon Musk Regarding P85D Horsepower – Discussion Thread

    And even if you 'win'? You might be able to cancel the purchase, 'but' your usage of the car will be deducted from the payment. In Denmark it constitutes 0,5 dkr pr 100.000 dkr value of the car. so assuming you bought a p85d for 1.000.000 dkr, drove 20.000 km, sued Tesla and won. You can't...

    Letter To Elon Musk Regarding P85D Horsepower – Discussion Thread

    Well, since hp adverticed almost never is 'on the wheels' I don't expect it to be an easy verdict. But let's see. But what I do know is that if Tesla looses, the p85d owners 'might' be able cancel the purchase. 'If' they took appropiate action fast enough. There will be little to no...

    Tomorrow Elon Musk will arrive in Denmark and try to convince the danish parlament NOT to apply a 180% tax on all electrical vehicles from the 1/1. Thanks to these articles, the public opinion in Denmark will now see the Tesla owners as a bunch of super-car fanatics, enjoying a huge...
