    What happened to my rear heated seats?

    I have a 2015 Model S which has gone through many iterations of UI changes throughout the years. One of the things I seem to recall was that heated rear seats was available through the app and the MCU. Granted I rarely have passengers in the rear seat and I'm in California, but it's still...

    Replaced MCU, Tesla wants to keep part of my old MCU (need legal argument)

    So a few days ago my MCU goes dark due to the well known eMMC issue. At this point I am unable to charge at home or at the Supercharger so I'm at the mercy of Tesla and have my car towed from the Supercharger with 7 miles left on my battery. My warranty is over since I'm hovering around 59k...

    PSA: Early VIN possible repairs

    So I have VIN #2xxx and Tesla out of the blue called me the other day to tell me that their monitoring services indicate a potential problem with some actuator valve. With my confused voice I ask the person how would that affect me. I was told it could have some issues with regenerative...

    Turn signal “discussion”

    I still say people complaining about this is using their turn signals wrong. Instead of locking the turn signal in place, just hold it halfway down. It isn't rocket science to hold it in place while signaling to change lanes for those that feel they need to have undivided attention to barely...

    FasTrak mounting

    I had the opportunity to use my FasTrak yesterday on the Express Lanes on the way home. I was still waiting on my license plate and since traffic was kinda heavy I took the chance. I left my FasTrak device in my center console. Every time I went through one of those sensors, it triggered by...

    Suspension and ball joint issues Bjørn chimes in

    Since the person that posted the original thread that caused all this ball joint PR is now banned and both threads are locked, thought I'd start a new thread hopefully with constructive comments rather than let it get away and obvious trolling. In a recent Bjørn Youtube video he briefly talks...

    Seeking tow damage advice

    On Thursday May 12th, 2016, I was doing work for a client at their residence. Apparently the street has no parking which wasn't clearly marked and you had to park in specific areas. I'm not going to debate that as that's the point to this thread. Two hours in the client screams at me to come...
