FSD Released to Legacy S and X - 2024.3.15 I received the above update last night and it appears to have merged FSD with my current software. My IC display looks like what I see in FSD videos. My Auto-Pilot page in the Control Panel screen doesn’t show EAP, but now says Full Self Driving with...

There has to be an answer for this somewhere on the forum, but I could not find it. 4 yr old MS 19” stock wheels. I run summer and winter tires - using the same wheels. Mileage is 68k. I notice that I drop several psi every few weeks. Just put new winter tires on in late October. Visited the...

@jhm @jbcarioca @Gigapress @heltok Probably missed a couple of folks - pls help me reach the other interested parties. I will post the link to this thread as a response to heltok's most recent response. For those starting in anew to this thread. @jhm posted a very informative note on the...

My new avatar. Don’t see the Tesla? It’s a little convoluted but here goes. The design is a take-off from a Frank Lloyd Wright window from the Coonley House, circa 1911 Frank Lloyd Wright's Coonley Playhouse stained glass, art glass, and light screens When I picked the variegated red orange...

So, the rated range after I left the SuperCharger said 280. Drove back to hotel. Several hours later I went to the car and it was showing 297. I have never seen this before. Any ideas? Is this normal? I am on a trip to Morgantown WVA. Arrived at Supercharger with about 60 miles of range...

Curious to get opinions from those who use Autopilot all the time, and ideally, have had experience similar to what I’m about to describe. Would like to know how Autopilot would have responded. Yesterday, I was driving on a state highway (Rt 29N in Maryland about 2 miles south of Ellicott City...

Have searched forum and have not found info, so am posting in new thread. I am in the last 6 months of my MS 100D lease and am strongly considering buying it out. Reasons why are (1) comfort of current seats vs new style in Y or S, and (2) pano roof. Reason #1 is 2x more important than #1...

First gas station in America to ditch oil for 100% electric vehicle charging opens in Maryland

Arnold Schwarzenegger pushes gas guzzlers as undercover car salesperson Not a big Arnold fan, but this is hillarious.

We just returned from Myrtle Beach ~ 450 mi each way. On the way back, I knew I would need to drive an extra 80 mi immediately upon arriving home. I didnt think about this til we were enroute and at the 1st supercharger (Fayetteville, NC). I wasn’t sure how to change the second proposed...

First, I tried searching for answers to these before posting, but did not find any.. Just got back from visiting relatives in South Carolina. On the trip back we needed to make a detour to a waypoint before heading home. As far as I know Nav does not support waypoints (did find thread on that...

https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2018/11/29/boeing-ceo-addresses-flight-system-update-after-criticism-pilots/ Many articles about this. Started to think about what if any standards should exist for "override" as autonomous vehicles mature. If you expected it to work how it used to, and...

I've decided to balance out the (mostly negative) stories by posting positive ones whenever I have a good experience. Personal Pet Peeve. 2 week old S100 D. Had snow tires put on last week (Michellin Ice-X 19"). Was driving Friday night on wet, slushy roads. While parallel parking I heard a...

I just upgraded from 85D to 100D. Both had upgraded audio package. I did not expect any difference in sound quality, but.. the audio sounds better in the 100D. I usually listen to Slacker. Equalizer settings are the same. Sotware version of car is same. 85D was 3G whereas 100D is LTE, but...

This caught my attention. Seems like it could be fun to have one if you had the land/terrain. A new vehicle has more energy capacity than a Tesla and more torque than a tank

Thought I would do a shoutout for my local SC (Rockville, MD), as most postings I see are negative (understandable), and like others, I track the quality "regression line" anecdotally to help decide if/when I might upgrade. Had my 50k service done this week. Some minor things I asked them to...

Wi-Fi security has been breached, say researchers Question for the engineers on the forum - would it be possible to leverage this breach to access a Tesla? Or does the car require another level of authentication that would prevent it? Regardless I will be patching my devices as soon as a...

I've noticed the car attracts arachnids, which I've always assumed has something to do with the batteries and warmth of the car. Apparently this also applies to birds. I've read that's why birds always sit on electrical lines. This was a first today.

Have seen posts (I think) of others experiencing this on previous code versions, but I have never seen it, and I drive a lot (44k miles in 2 yrs). Just updated to the new load earlier today. Then went for a drive on some back roads. So I was shocked when I saw the car showing 80 mph - was...

I posted this to the Model S Mechanical and Technical Issues thread but thought I'd cross post here. If you happen to go to Woodberry Kitchen - one of the best restaurants in the Baltimore area, be advised that where they now valet park your car is by a large tower that causes RF interference...

Have searched and read other postings that I can find and would be interested in getting additional input. My situation: leased an S85D Midnight Silver, all options (except last row), panoramic roof, MSRP $101k. Will be at 45k miles at 2 yrs of ownership, which is fast approaching. Window to...

So, I booked my 3rd annual service at Rockville Service Center for this Friday, Feb 24th. Today I received a call to confirm, and they said that they were going to offer me a "faster service option" - I would drop my car off at the RSC and they would take it to Baltimore to service it and then...

I've noticed something strange since having my Model S. Bugs, particularly spiders seem to like it. Yes really. I've noticed small spiders and occasional other bugs on the roof and front windshield. Never seen this before with another car. Wonder if the electricity generates heat that...

Interesting article in The Washington Post about funding chargers. From the article - "The White House on Thursday announced an array of new initiatives aimed at clinching one key goal in a transition away from burning fossil fuels — switching the nation’s millions of drivers from gas...

I have a nice (not) new scratch about 2 inches long (anonymous gift) on the right rear quarter panel and called the SC today to see if they had touch-up paint available. I have Midnight Silver. SC does not have it and unless I'm reading the Tesla accessories site incorrectly, it's not...

Saw this on Mashable today. Bill Gates interviewed the Scifi author Neal Stephenson about his new book, Seveneves, while driving him in Gates' MX. They filmed it for 360 degree and/or VR playback. pretty cool video clip, but not sure I'm going to get the book. Some of the reviews on Amazon...

Damaged right rear quarter panel, doesn't require replacement. Suffering from sticker shock ($3800). Read all previous posts I could find and spoke to Rockville Service Center (very helpful). Have quote from closest authorized repair shop (Euro Pro) and met with them today (they explained why...
