Apologies for the hyperbolic title, but it's essentially what this post is about. Some of you may remember me as the one who exposed Tesla's hidden DC Fast Charging scandal where they would limit charging rates on batteries after a set number of DC Fast Charges. See If you fast charge, Tesla...

So... I towed a trailer today with my Model X. On the main screen, it said it detected a heavy load and was activating tow mode. On the IC, it said Trailer Detected Vehicle not equipped with a tow package. I know that technically I don't have the tow package, but the main screen said it was...

The Mercedes-AMG GT63-S prototype was at the local Mercedes dealer today. First thing that struck me was that they stole the Tesla design files, made a few cosmetic changes (shave a couple inches off the nose & stuff the extra to puff up the hood, round off the spoiler, flip the window teardrop)...

Winter is coming... I've got a set of front, rear and sub trunk Tesla OEM Weathertech mats for sale. They are used and show signs of wear, but no holes or tears or anything like that. They are in good condition. This 4 piece set is $305 + shipping brand new, I will sell for $190 + shipping for...

I'm looking to borrow someone's steering wheel. In return, I will send you a 3D printed Autopilot buddy type device once I'm done taking the measurements and doing the design and testing. I know it's a long shot, but I'm hoping someone has an extra steering wheel lying around they'd let me use...

I posted this in the Model S section, but since getting my Model X, I've been testing most of these out and they work fine in the X as well. I also came to realize that I never read the Model X section as an S owner, and I'm sure the reverse is true, so i'm posting this here in the X section as...

I've had several people contact me with regards to some of my designs for Tesla accessories. I am releasing all of them under the CCL. Feel free to use them as you see fit. If you want to sell them for some reason, please contact me before hand and we can work something out. Tesla MS Jack Pad...

This is kind of a weird request, but I figure maybe someone is interested. I am looking to acquire another Dual Motor Model S. I don't care what battery size, and AP is not a requirement. The only requirement is that it be a dual motor. I will trade you a ready to order (you pick what options...

For those of you waiting for your snazzy black signed HPWC, I just got off the phone with Tesla, and they said they were not starting shipping on those until April. I thought some people had already gotten theirs - has anyone received their black chargers? If no one, and you're wondering where...

I have a set of 21" Grey Turbines with TPMS and center caps. All rims are in great condition. Tires are Hankook and have a little bit of life left, but not much, so I'll just sell for the price of the rims. Consider any mileage you get out of the tires as a free bonus! Looking for $2000 +...

I have a new, never installed Light Harmonics S12P Premium Amplifier (While you drive the world’s best electric vehicle, you should be listening to the world’s best stereo.) for sale. I was going to put it in my 2012, but never ended up doing so and I'm probably selling it sooner rather than...

I'm looking to trade one of my sets of 21" Grey Turbines (I have 3 sets, don't ask...) ... for a set of 19" Grey Slipstreams. My turbines have tires on them, but they are pretty shot. I'm looking for a set of 19" grey slipstreams with winter tires preferably, but all seasons would be ok as well...

As title states, I'm looking for a set of Gen2 TPMS, the ones that will tell individual tire pressure.

I'm not sure what I should be looking for, but my 2012 passenger handle won't present when pressed. The drives side works fine... Is there a known issue with this breaking? If so, how do I go about fixing it? I imagine it's just a microswitch or something in there? Is there a guide on how to...

Looking for some inexpensive 19" wheels for a Model S. Don't need TPMS or tires, just the wheels. Let me know what you have and price shipped to Kansas City.

I bought some BBC adjustable rear links for my wifes 2012 P85 to tune out some of the wicked negative camber. Does anyone have a write up on the best way to go about swapping the stock ones out? I've never replaced these things on any car before, so I want to know any gotchas. I have a lift...

I have completed my trip. Here is the raw data: Pre / Post DCFC Throttle Data If anyone wants to collate and/or graph the data, that would be great. I'm not that great with spreadsheets to start with. Here are the take aways: Yes, throttling increases your trip time. Yes, it seems ~5...

I just discovered some new behavior for low power states in my vehicle. Previously, when the main pack ran out of power (or more accurately, reached it's cutoff voltage for shutting down) the entire car shut down, including the main screen, dash, heating/cooling, etc... for all intents and...

I haven't seen anyone post this yet, but it's entirely possible I missed it... so I apologize if so. But it seems there was a stealth egg buff for the Rainbow Road on AP1 cars. MORE COWBELL

I just happened across a situation where the climate control becomes a major safety issue if you are relying on it to be functional under normal circumstances. Here in Kansas, it's was a somewhat mild day (around 80 degrees outside) and the car interior was about 90 degrees. I had just returned...

Hi everyone. I just got off the phone with Tesla with some disturbing news. My car has approximately 30,000 miles on it. I regularly use CHADeMo to charge my car, with the occasional Supercharger charge on road trips. On my last road trip, I noticed that my supercharging rate was significantly...

I have installed a second HPWC in my garage and I'm upgrading my circuit to a 100a to feed both chargers. I plan on putting the signaling wire between the two - the manual calls for an 18awg TP shielded wire. Does anyone know what the best wire to use for this is? I have tons of CAT5e and CAT6...

So... I'm wondering what happens to the Tesla if your house happens to get struck by lightning whilest the car is plugged in and/or charging? Has this happened yet? If so, what was the result? If not, what is the likely outcome? Is there a possibility of the pack exploding? Maybe not...

This thread is a permenent thread to discuss Light Harmonic Amplifier and to discuss their customer service. It is intended as a non-vendor controlled thread to prevent deletion/removal of important or archival information. Please transfer (copy & paste, also LINK to the post you are copying)...

As per a discussion in another thread with regards to making a "generic" adapter to allow an external amp to interface with the Tesla wiring harness, I am making this thread to foster discussion and to get an idea of how many people might be interested in this. I have an RFQ out to one of the...

So it's my understanding (and please correct me if I am wrong) and from everything I've read that regular supercharger use is generally considered bad for the battery due to the high charge rate. Is this correct or do I misunderstand whats been posted and the general consensus? Assuming that to...

Wasn't really sure where to put this ... if it needs to be moved, sorry about that! Got this message on PlugShare today from a local guy. Apparently because my EV takes more than 15 minutes to charge, it is quite inferior to the Chevy Spark, which only takes 15 minutes at best. I have...

Is there an app that will tell me what my optimum or perhaps my maximum speed should be between superchargers? I realize there are many factors that go in to this, such as wind, temperature, hills, etc... but, for example, with EVTrip Planner, you can enter some of those variables and it will...

I can't seem to find a definitive thread on what to watch out for when buying a used Tesla Model S. For example, if I am buying a used 2014 or 2015, I'm pretty in pretty good shape as far as problems. However, if I look into earlier models, especially 2012s, I would imagine there are lots of...
