    Tesla promoting self-driving video was staged

    haha I called it when it first released Was self driving video scripted?
  2. xborg

    I ordered a Performance 3. The car at delivery was an AWD.

    13 pages and no definitive answer. I guess someone like @wk057 @Ingineer @verygreen can give a definitive answer.

    Repair time - 6 months!??!

    Vow, 8 months is incredible. Mine was 4 months wait in total. For a new hood, front bumper, radar and various parts. It was just a small 10mph crash.

    Reports of slower accelleration after latest update.

    @fiksegts aka dragtimes is here :)

    Reports of slower accelleration after latest update.

    I wouldn't be surprised. They slowed down S P90Ds, they may as well slow down Model 3s.

    Auto Park Accident

    oh, it hurts to see a nice model 3 is hurt like this. Unfortunately, Tesla is not responsive about autopilot / autopark incidents, I'm not sure there is much to do. In this case, it looks like it failed to detect the concrete.

    Repair time - 6 months!??!

    I feel for you. Super frustrating, I had a very similar experience with my P90D. The main problem was the replacement parts availability.

    A 14-Month Customer Service Experience

    Ordering the wrong part. I heard that a lot. I guess their inventory system is not very good or non-existent.

    US Bank end of Lease

    Yes, it applies to P90Ds as well. They tend to deteriorate and also fry themselves if you do launches.

    Buyer beware. Buying a CPO Tesla feels like a SCAM.

    Really? So you don't want to know if the car you are buying is serviced properly or not? I thought everyone checks the service booklet. It's common sense that if a car is serviced, it worths more. Don't tell me words like 'but EVs doesn't need to be serviced'

    Buyer beware. Buying a CPO Tesla feels like a SCAM.

    I agree, they only care about new sales numbers, as the company's only goal is to publish better sales numbers keep the stock stable.

    Buyer beware. Buying a CPO Tesla feels like a SCAM.

    Also, they don't provide service/repair history, so you don't know what work has been done on the car.

    Dashcam video: my Tesla smacks armored truck while on Autopilot

    sorry for your experience. you should be happy that you were not travelling faster, otherwise it may have ended very badly. "the software and hardware performed within specs and as designed" after every autopilot accident, we hear this sentence from Tesla, and it makes me laugh.

    P90D - What battery versions should I avoid?

    I haven't, I was lucky to make Tesla buy back my P90DL. There are many reports of death / performance degraded v3 p90d batteries if you research. Also, supercharging speed limitation is another issue. Remember, Tesla has limited the power of P90Ds when they realised that battery was not able to...

    P90D - What battery versions should I avoid?

    Avoid P90D at all. v1 & v2 doesn't meet specs. v3s tend to fry.

    Should Tesla offer a $5,000 Ludicrous Upgrade to move CPO P85D's ?

    I doubt Tesla would offer. Even 90 ludicrous batteries were getting limited because of the performance issues. I can imagine Ludicrous cars are causing the bigger portion of the drivetrain warranty repairs. And i don't think Tesla is making any profit on $5000 P85D Lud upgrade.

    2013 S75 w/175,000 mi - Good Buy?

    Of it may have lots of problems. But it'd be easier to comment if you can share the price.

    Cabin noise comparison: 12/2017 Model S vs 1/2018 Model 3

    Well , I think that's just a lie Tesla owners keep telling themselves, including me. Yes, it's quite at idle, but after 40mph, Model S is not a quite car. Actually, I find my Volvo S90 much quieter then Model S. I've found such a website: Auto Decibel Database not sure where this data comes...

    Model 3 standard range postponed until Early 2019

    I reckon, when they introduce the short range version, It will have a bit less range than the current long range.. And a new longer range version will be released. Those who ordered the old long range will be screwed. Just look at the past. It always happens on Teslaland. Recently, they said...

    New suspension system

    I heard, but It was about a year ago.

    Early 75/75D pack degradation

    Thanks for providing us real data. I agree that Tesla's practices are being very dishonest. Apart from technical stuff, let's also add "we never discount" lie as well. I reckon degradation problem with 90 batteries are also linked to P90D battery failures.

    Do Tesla under rate their cars?

    They overrate their fast cars, P versions, and they underrate their slower cars. So that someone would lean towards P versions. Tesla data: P85D 3.1 seconds vs 85D 4.2 seconds. Real data: P85D 3.3 seconds vs 85D 3.8 seconds.

    FSD video completely fake?

    oh, I've just seen this thread. Couldn't read all messages, but I just want to put this here: Was self driving video scripted? An observation I made about a year ago.

    Follow up to employee termination

    Exactly! This +1 Especially very true for European market. For example, Tesla UK is ordering popular specs and they are listing them as inventory on the website before even those cars came to the UK. My friend has bought an "inventory" car with a price adjustment, and he has to wait 3 weeks to...

    Follow up to employee termination

    Thanks for sharing this again, Tesla's wording is joke. The truth is, these vehicles are just inventory vehicles, most of them are brand new and just waiting in the warehouse. No wear-tear at all, isn't it? I know because my friends landed on good deals, and the cars were brand new.

    Model S Awful Delivery in Buffalo

    Classic year end push & miscommunication. Sorry about your experience. In my second delivery experience, My car has arrived early, I was told that I'd lose my deposit if I don't get the car in a few days. It was q2 end. I was on vacation and had to return home early.

    Follow up to employee termination

    You did nothing wrong. I still receive emails from Tesla sales people and wording is similar. Even on the official invoices "Showroom discount" term is used. I suppose this was a move done by upper management to keep stock price up, by showing that Tesla doesn't "discount". Which is a lie. I'm...

    Tesla Service/Quality control is still as bad as ever I guess

    Thanks for the detailed information. Have they told you that you are now blacklisted and cannot buy a Tesla in the future? This was what I was told.

    500 mile Model S soon? Semi with 1 MW battery for $180K What. The. Hell????

    I totally agree. Also, if you are on a longer road trip that requires sleeping in hotels, you have to be very careful about your selection. It's very hard to find a hotel with chargers in Europe. The hotels with destination chargers are generally very expensive. If you can't find a hotel with...

    Blog Update Pushes Model S 100D to 0-60 MPH in 3.6 Seconds

    aaand P90DL residuals plummet.. To be honest they are just playing with us. There is no such thing such software improvements. They are just removing the limits they've put to keep the stock up.

    An Open Letter about My Model X Body Repair Experience...

    Yeap I agree. And the funny thing is, it was exactly what I did. Ordering a new Tesla after my 4 months repair wait. Fortunately, they messed up again ,and finally then I was able to get out of reality distortion field. Now I'm happy without a Tesla.

    An Open Letter about My Model X Body Repair Experience...

    And you've ordered another Tesla? Fool me once... My much smaller repair was done in Tesla Approved Body Shop, it took 4 months. Mainly because of parts availability issues from Tesla. I can say, 6 months is a short time for this kind of repair.

    Is uncorking 75D unfair to 90/100D owners?

    haha discovered? They discovered months later that old 75s can be uncorked? No it was all planned. 75s were already limited. They have just uncorked it. If you ever driven a 75, you could easily tell that the acceleration curve was artificial.

    Imagine if this was a gas car

    No, unfortunately radar is not capable of detecting concrete barriers properly at high speeds.

    Via Tesla rep- No more Ludicrous upgrade

    We've discussed this briefly in this very long thread Pack Performance and Launch Mode Limits and maybe this is helpful as well P90DL battery replacement thread. In short, they may have understood/accepted that ludicrous upgrade is too powerful and frying 90 batteries. They first limited our...

    Any P90DL owners got their 100 kWh battery upgrade yet?

    I've just seen this thread again, I was going to reply but I noticed that I had already :) My previous message is still applicable. Tesla played a very sneaky game to prevent you from cancelling your order. And now they decided that $10k is too cheap for that job, so they don't want to swap the...

    Paint defects Model S

    that's very nice to hear, it looks like that resolved quickly. When I asked a rebuilt, it took months to get an answer and rejected in the end.(i'll post an update once the case completely closed)

    Theft Of Components Off My Model S @ Cleveland Service Center

    HW2.5 capabilities

    75 and 75D variants increased performance from July 1st - software and hardware improvements?

    Fyi, just received this email from Tesla. "In addition new, test drive and inventory Model S and Model X 75 kWh vehicles received an over‑the‑air software update and now have improved performance, with the ability to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph one second faster."
  47. xborg

    Why would you buy Model S over Model 3?

    Hence, BMW 5 series is only £10k more expensive than BMW 3 series. Not double the price.
