    Tesla Supercharging - SC05 - Transfer supercharging workaround?

    I changed everything including the email, been to the service center, and everything was fine. But YMMV of course.

    US Tesla charge port retrofit to CCS2?

    I once asked at the service center here in Amsterdam, and they said very flatly that they don’t do charge port retrofits for different regions. Which is a shame, because it seems like it would be pretty straightforward to do.

    Mechanics in Amsterdam

    I took over someone else’s account when I bought it to preserve the free supercharging, so I’m a little afraid to schedule a service appointment with Tesla, they might notice and cancel my free supercharging…

    Mechanics in Amsterdam

    I have a Raven Model S with some suspension/steering issues and I’m looking for a reputable repair shop around Amsterdam to fix it. Any recommendations?

    Tesla Supercharging - SC05 - Transfer supercharging workaround?

    Been working fine for me so far! Do you know if it’s safe to go back to the service center for repairs, or will they notice the workaround and remove SC then?

    Michelin CrossClimate 2 issues

    A while back I took delivery of a car with summer tires without realizing, and I had the same concern over wasting a perfectly good set of tires when swapping to all-seasons. Turns out, if you list them on FB Marketplace, you’ll get tons of bids, so you can try selling the old ones when you do...

    Tesla Supercharging - SC05 - Transfer supercharging workaround?

    Looks like I’m about to try something similar, let’s see what happens!

    2021 MS 19” Tempest Delivery Tracking

    I'm in the same boat, only I assumed they'd deliver with A/S and didn't even think to check at delivery time. And now of course with winter coming I'm trying to correct the problem.

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Anyone here reserve the Plaid before the $10k price hike, then remove the FSD option before delivery? Did your base price go up by $10k as a result (making the FSD cancellation not worth it)?

    Supercharger - Bellevue, WA

    I doubt it, the other nearby SC in the Union St paid garage in Seattle also had limited hours since long before covid. FWIW, I was done charging my Model S from ~15% soc to 90% within the 2-hour window, so it cost me $7 for essentially a full charge (going to 100% is rarely worth it). It’s a...

    Scratched my rim and BRAND NEW wheel on curb - need advise!

    As far as the rim is concerned, I got a nice, deep gouge on one of my rim spokes back in January :( I was able to get it fixed for ~$275 before tax at a Sameday shop. Not the cheapest repair, but also not the end of the world. As their name suggests, it was a same-day repair.

    Need to borrow (Seattle): Event Data Recorder (EDR) cables for 2016 MS

    Anyone in the greater Seattle area have EDR cables handy that I can borrow? Or are there any shops that have the cables/tools on hand that I can go to? I was in a very minor accident recently and was hoping that the event data could help my case in the insurance claim. I'm willing to drive a...

    HW3 upgrade waiting room: All FSD Tesla’s

    When was this? I asked the same question when I was getting the yellow border fixed a while ago (before the UV fix was available, they just replaced at the time), and they said there’s no way to retrofit an MCU2 into my car.

    HW3 upgrade waiting room: All FSD Tesla’s

    MCU (media control unit) - the main big screen. There are two versions: * MCU 1 - old and slow, lacks many of the newer features like video streaming and a lot of the games * MCU 2 - new and fast, fully featured HW3 - latest version of the autopilot computer, claimed to one day be capable of...

    Would you buy again MS with MCU1 or wait couple of yrs to get newer model?

    This, I believe, is a Model Y

    Rattle noise coming from front Air Suspension (2017-18)

    Several months in, and it’s still better than it was before but it’s definitely more noticeable now. There really is no permanent fix for this problem, sorry folks

    Supercharger - Seattle, WA - Union Street

    PSA: Tesla’s official map has been updated that it’s 72kw and limited hours (though they don’t offer more details than that).

    Rattle noise coming from front Air Suspension (2017-18)

    Funny you mention noticing a difference, I noticed a difference too when rounding tight bends (like sharp highway on ramps). In my case the change was for the better, there was much less body roll so it feels much more comfortable taking the curves briskly. On one particularly sharp bend that I...

    Rattle noise coming from front Air Suspension (2017-18)

    Just closing the loop here - found the old invoice and turns out they only replaced a couple of bolts and one or two other small parts like them. However, I recently asked them for the 77-C and after a week and a half or so of driving I can say that the issue is mostly fixed. It still rattles...

    Impossibility of L5 using any level of new hardware

    The trouble is that we are good precisely at corner cases, because we have ingenuity, creativity, and an understanding of the physical world around us. Robots will be good at the boring and tedious stuff, which is where we need help (we tire and are easily distracted), but not the corner cases...

    Rattle noise coming from front Air Suspension (2017-18)

    Just wanted to add my experience to the list: I took delivery at the beginning of 2017 of a new inventory MS P100D so I'm assuming Q4 2016 build, and almost immediately noticed the rattle/clunking noise in the front suspension being discussed in this thread (#1 in the quoted wav file). I finally...

    OEM Model S Parcel Shelf

    Dang, just a bit too late - if by any chance you still have it, I'll give you the original asking price!

    +1 for English subs. Stossdampfer translates as shock absorber, according to Google.

    Borrow a Model X in Long Island, NY?

    Borrow a Model X in Long Island, NY?

    Greetings all, I'll be traveling to NY a week from today and was hoping to borrow/rent a Model X on 9/8 for the whole day (AP-enabled preferable). I'll be staying near Huntington on Long Island and would love to take my grandma around in a Model X for the day - she's getting old and I live on...

    Poll: Has AP2 18.10.4 surpassed AP1 in terms of performance?

    For all you SF Bay Area drivers, as a point of reference I just made it back from Santa Cruz to Mountain View on Highway 17, almost entirely on AP. I certainly can't say it was smooth, but this is the first time something like this was even remotely feasible. No question in my mind that AP2...

    Poll: Has AP2 18.10.4 surpassed AP1 in terms of performance?

    I think the point was to prove that AP2 was still behind AP1 just prior to this update.
