They started on the car before telling me about this headlight and said it was all or nothing, and since they had already started, it was all. Yeah, it's not a huge deal, but I think it's worth sharing these stories so at people have a chance to be aware of their undocumented policies. I...

They completed the job before communicating this. A coyote ran out in front of me on the highway at full speed across the road (unlit rural section). It seems like they would be open to accepting my used headlight for use if safety, not revenue, was the concern. Yes @ucmndd , I got the check...

Yes, that's normal (if you own your car). If you don't believe me, check out pretty much every result here: do i have to get my car fixed with insurance check - Google Search I also could have refused to do any of the fixes with tesla and just drive around the car, so keeping that headlight...

Yes, but I own the vehicle, so the payment from insurance will be made to me.

Thanks @ATPMSD! The part alone for one headlight is $1210+tax (and maybe plus labor?). I disagree that there's a legitimate threat of a lawsuit for not fixing something, and I think it's being used as an excuse to not be flexible. They didn't directly refuse, they just say, they took a look and...

My bumper is being repaired, and the headlight has one mounting tab that is broken. Tesla Collision is saying they have to fix everything on the car that's damaged. I don't want to pay $1210 for a headlight, especially when this one is actually working and just has minor damage, and I can fix it...

I went ahead and tried @acalis's suggestion of tightening the bolts and it seems to have fixed the issue! I did apply some various lubricants in different places once it had quieted down, so that could have helped too, but it seems like the mirror was just moving too much due to loose bolts. I...

Did you figure this out @beatle? My mirrors also seem to squeak when I open the doors. I think it's two mirror housing parts moving against themselves. I've tried silicone lubricant and it actually made it worse.

I know this is an old thread, but just in case it helps someone, here's some pics of the Megamat Duo 10 medium on reddit:

Thanks for posting this. I had the same issue and they diagnosed it remotely and it seems to be fixed for me after they replaced this same part.

I just installed this update and it seems quite a bit faster so far from a minute of playing with it, although I haven't driven the car yet. Voice navigation worked on the first try for the first time in years! I have an MCU2 upgrade scheduled, but I think I may cancel it if this performs as...

I'm also stuck on 2020.48. Are we missing out on any features besides FSD beta? I'm assuming they've made some other feature releases, including AP improvements during this time. I'm curious how significant these ~11 months of updates are. Is voice nav working for anyone else? Voice commands on...

Thanks for the instructions. Took me 30-40 minutes without experience. I don't know how much the Telsa filter costs, but this filter worked fine for me: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07W5WFBN1 In my 2017 I ended up using a T15, not a T20. I also used my fingers instead of a panel removal...

I came from a C6 Z here. I'd love to see car's real world 0-60 times, instead of magazine/record times. I'd guess mine averaged in the 5's. My Tesla is drastically faster for me than my Corvette, at least until the Corvette hooks (~40-60 mph). I don't care one bit about 60-120 speed, when I'm...

I saw your thread when you posted it, and got my NVX sub installed since then in my base system, and was meaning to post an update in your thread once I got my sub installed. I'm really happy with the NVX sub. ~$880 from EVSmotors + ~$280 install (which I think was a great deal). The output is...

I think this backs up what our/Krash's numbers have said in this thread, and what we've felt. If you have or find video, I'd love to see it. Amazingly, there aren't many non "P" Tesla racing video out there.

This is showing up on the in-car map now.

I charged there yesterday afternoon (I got 70kw max, but my battery was pretty full). I wonder if they are painting the parking spot lines. That's the only thing I noticed that was remaining. I'll be back through tomorrow, and it's good to know I shouldn't rely on it! The lot was very full...

Do these rub at all? I would think they wouldn't, based on what i'm reading and because they are the same size in front as the tsportline setup), but OP was having issues. Also, do you have air suspension? Thanks!

Here is the thread SpudLine as referencing: Drive unit fluid replacement not part of annual service anymore? I was a little suspicious because their maintenance page says, "The drive unit(s) will be serviced every 4th inspection, starting with the first annual service inspection." I also...

It's $475 for the annual service, and I'd think probably about 70-80% of that cost is just changing the drive unit fluid. Thanks @zwede. That was for AWD? Even if it takes me a couple hours i'm okay with it. I just don't want it to be one of those, "Oh, now I see why they charge so much for...

It's now every fourth inspection (50k miles), starting at the first (12,500). Source: Maintenance Plans | Model S and Model X How much time would you say the fluid change took you? Is about an hour per drive unit right? I'd like for Tesla to do it, but $475 ($550 for AWD) seems very steep...

To follow up on the ETONs. Install Installing the 8" speakers was a pain for me, due to the bracket fabrication issues and also getting them to clear the doors (the brackets need to be 1.5" thick or less, even 1.5" may be a little too thick depending on various details). If I had to do it...

There are three parts to the door. The outer skin, which has paint on the other side. The inner skin, which is what the speaker mounts to. And the door card, which is where the interior piece, that the speaker cover mounts to. Likely worst place for this port would be the inner skin. We agree...

My car was built in September of 2017, and the speaker part number is the same and looks the same as trayloader's (speakers look to be made in 2014). I think the factory stereo is pretty bad in about every respect. I just installed them one at a time, and I tested the first one before moving...

I've tried plugging this "bass port" and I can't tell any difference. This port isn't even in front of the speaker, or on the door that the speaker is mounted to (the inner door skin). Did anyone do back to back testing (unplug port while playing music) and notice a difference?

I got one of the ETONs installed, and it is unfortunately lacking bass compared to the factory speakers. I switched back and forth between speakers and pretty much the only thing I noticed was that the ETONs are less sensitive (quieter) and also lack a lot of mid-range bass. They do have some...

My ETONs arrived in the mail and I've been going back and forth on whether I want to install them myself. I thought it would be pretty easy, but the more I look into it, the more I'm realizing it's not a very simple job. @trayloader Since you are the only person I know of that has done the 8"...

Any opinions on how the modifications described in this thread differ from a speaker baffle? For example, this product (I'm have not researched size and fit): XTC 8" Speaker Baffles (6" depth)

What are the 3 owners seeing for peak KW (viewed on the screen or through the API)? KW's are directly convertible to horsepower. This should be more accurate than a dyno, and much easier. You'll get more power with a warmer battery and a high SoC.

It sounds like they are valid again, through the end of 2018: US extends tax credits for charger installations, electric motorcycles and fuel cell vehicles through end of 2018 My understanding, is if you spend $800 on a home install, you would get 30% of that back as a tax credit.

Yes, these looks like pretty normal situations where autopilot would fail. .52 is not out, but I doubt .50 would do much better. You'll learn where it is an is not good soon, and anticipate this.

I think I'm going to go with the ETONs. Matt, in your pics, the tweeter is in the door. Did you take it out and move it up to the A-pillar? Or am I missing something (there a secondary component tweeter?) Treyloader, have you heard the UHFS? Any opinions on how your setup compares to it?

Very interesting. Is the bass actually good with the ETON setup, or just a lot better, but not all that great? It seems like the stock head unit would not put out enough power (rated at 200w) to push good bass with 8" speakers. So you need to fabricate custom spacer to install an 8" speaker in...

Let us know what performance configuration yours is in before and after the uncork. Mine is already P1 from a September build.

@Krash Do you have any preference on log output between Dashboard for Tesla (Android) and PowerTools for Tesla (iOS)? It looks like powertools is more performance focused. Hopefully they both pull data from the car's GPS, not the phone's GPS? I bet the car's GPS is much more accurate.

Your car is essentially already uncorked. One person was getting 3.8 0-60's in his 90D (someone can probably do better). Regardless of what the API says, that's definitely not very corked. The 100D and 85D also can't be uncorked, from my understanding, although I'm not sure about this part. If...

Dragtimes posted a test video yesterday regarding the 100D with DU00. To not spoil it, I'll not comment further regarding the results. Blog: How fast is the updated Tesla Model S 100D from 0-60 MPH and what is Chill Mode?

Just picked up my 100D this morning. I think the consensus of this thread (@Chasedrgc1223 & @Speedr117, and others) is spot on. I think the 100D lays down more power from 40mph and up than it's 0-60 time alludes to. From the performance graphs, it looks like it actually puts down about the same...

Also, the URL in the order status page has all your option codes. I just changed my 75D to an inventory 100D a few minutes ago (500 miles, 4500 actual discount), based a lot on this thread. The range also seems really important in the midwest winters. Financially, it doesn't make sense, but my...

I track all the model's acceleration data in a big table. I think there is a similar post on this forum somewhere. Anyway, sources are... P100D Tesla Model S P100D Quarter Mile – P100D Is Quickest Sedan P90DL: New Launch Mode - firmware 2.9.40 P85D: 11.5s @ 115.7mph (source dragtimes 2015 +...

That's faster than a P90DL (118mph), and almost as fast as a P100D (122mph). Something is up with your numbers. Were you measuring yourself and going downhill? Any ideas what else it could be? I see from your logs that it's putting down good power, so I'm not doubting it's fast, but it shouldn't...

Very interesting thread. What MPH was this quarter mile at?

The configuration says a brand new X would be delivered in December. Is it really telling you a date after that? I ordered on 10/31 and OA says I should have it mid-December. I hope that's correct.

Excellent work on this. I'm really surprised to see how much more power the 100D's are making, and may switch my order based on this thread. Those are nearing P85D power output! Why are the power curves so delayed? For example, at 1mph, the cars show it's just at minimal power, like 40kwh. My...

I'm having trouble figuring out how the discounts are calculated. When I configure the same car, a lot of times it's showing up as about $4k less of a discount, by my math, than what ev-cpo says this discount is. Some of this could be due to inclusion/exclusion shipping fees, although I don't...

This car is listed for sale online at a dealer. Is this still for sale, or did you trade it in?

Thanks. For anyone reading this, they updated the hardware in the 75D as of about mid-June 2017 to now run (roughly) the same speed as the 85D/90D. It is now advertised to run in 4.2 (which I think is accurate), and a quarter in ~12.5 @ ~108.

That site says that number is for the 60, not the 60D, which should be a good bit quicker.

Thanks for the replies. Ernie, I have a C6 Z06, so that qualitative feedback is helpful. My Z06 supposedly does 0-60 in ~3.6, but as you mentioned, it's generally quite a bit slower in real world conditions, while a Tesla is going to be very consistent. It sounds like you are happy with it...
