    Bjørn's Tesla Model S videos

    Hi Björn, thank you so much for the videos. We are big fans of your Tesla roadtrips in Norway. In former videos you added a map with your route at the beginning of each trip (or at least at some waypoints). if it´s not too much of work it would be great to have it again - as the timelapse is far...

    Any idea when 100D (not P100D) might make debut?

    All over Europe the additional price is EURO 7.000,-- Big discussions here why we have to pay that much more compared to the US-market.

    Add winter tires for just one and a half months?

    I fully agree! Get my next X90D in March 2017 and preordered complete wheels from an european dealer already. (Delivery will be parallel to my Model X then). Insurance problems and even juridical problems will come up if you are involved in a crash and beeing blamed for driving on summer tires...

    Bjørn's Tesla Model S videos

    I did almost the same in my Model X. But never slept a whole night in there. I just started a new driver profile called "Pause". Thats German and means rest in English. I put this sleeping position into the memory as standard for the driver "Pause". Now it takes me just one click (actually two...

    Repairing a Flooded Tesla Model S : HOW-TO

    If ABS isn't working properly regen is switched off too (due to safety reason with regen on slippery roads). That's why I would start with the ABS problem first. ABS problems could stop the regen. But regen won't influence the ABS. Maybe there are 2 problems but I would expect just one - caused...

    Repairing a Flooded Tesla Model S : HOW-TO

    Regarding the steering angle sensor I checked the Mercedes files (as the steering wheel and it´s components are manufactured by the same subsupplier as Mercedes): It is part number 9 in the picture. Maybe it´s worth to check this sensor and it´s connectors too. Part no 8 is the driver for the...

    Repairing a Flooded Tesla Model S : HOW-TO

    JRP3 wrote: What if the inverter thinks the pack is too cold to allow regen, even if it's actually warm enough? Bad sensor/signal/wire/connection? The ABS would work as it is not linked to the battery-temp in anyway. On standard cars we had the problem with ABS if the steering angle sensor is...

    5 Seater in inventory.

    Here are two more available inventory-5-seaters (for the moment): Model X 90D 5YJXCDE28GF025800 | Tesla and Model X 90D 5YJXCDE25GF025902 | Tesla

    5 Seater in inventory.

    I hope and guess they want to sell it (like all the other inventory 90s) because the 100 is knocking at the door. They did the same with all the nose-cone inventory-cars just before the Model S facelift came .

    Bjørn's Tesla Model S videos

    Hi Bjoern, thanks for the very informative video. As we are driving in the alps with snow your experience is almost the same like mine (but we had not MINUS 21°C yet ;)). All the D Teslas are doing more than well on snowy roads. You are going quite fast on slippery roads especially with the...

    Bjørn's Tesla Model S videos

    Hi MorrisonHiker, yes you are absolutely right but did you see my smileys? I know of course Bjoern´s and Joergen´s towing and regen-video. But Joergen´s hints for the commercial break and the 17m long rope which looked that awful for crossing traffic :) that I had to post my not 100% seriously...

    Bjørn's Tesla Model S videos

    This is actually a great movie. :) Two nice guys are doing some strange and silly things with their pretty Teslas and a 17m long rope. ;) The only bad thing is, that after 4:10 it comes to a very, very, very long commercial break. I wonder how the movie will go on after the break (especially the...

    Hello Bjorn, thanks for all the trailer stuff and consumption research! Following every episode (pretty hungry for more vids) and must have missed you at Aurland SuC (coming from Flam) just a few minutes! CU@someSuC Olaf (toptecspezi)

    Say Goodbye to Solid White and Titanium Metallic Silver?

    I would be really dissatisfied if that will not be corrected by Tesla soon. Most of my Teslas are/were solid white. The extra price for the multi-coat pearl-white is a nogo if there is just one standard colour (black). Imho WHITE with it´s clean appearance fits perfectly to the clean electric...

    100D Very Cool

    The Model X100D fits perfectly to our needs here in the alps (with cold winters and uphill trailer towing) with even more range. We will definetely wait for our next orders until the X 100D will be available. The sooner the better (for Tesla too).

    Any idea when 100D (not P100D) might make debut?

    Here in Southern Germany and Austria the winters can get pretty cold. In addition we have to pull trailers all year long. Despite of a really good SuC-net across Germany and Europe, range is still first priority for our business here. If the 100D is available, I would for sure press the order...

    85kWh battery being phased out?

    Page is back online and 85kWh is still available in Germany. I was too quick and too suspicious - really sorry. :redface: :redface: :redface:

    85kWh battery being phased out?

    It seems to be the same in Germany. For the moment the configuration page is not available. Wednesday the 27th, 12:35 local German time. I´m keen on checking the changes :redface:

    Firmware 7.1

    I think that´s normal after the update. It seems to reset these functions. Same after my update to 7.1 Good to know now (I´ll check seriously after the next update) as I walked away after parking in the city without closing by keyfob. Fortunately nobody got aware of my open Tesla within these 10...

    7.1 - range algorithm updated?

    Since 7.1 my range is 408km with 90% charge (Sorry, haven´t charged up to 100% yet) That´s an improvement of about 2% compared to 7.0 (90D/12-2015)

    Tesla Model S OEM Rear carbon spoiler

    I´m looking for a OEM rear spoiler carbon style for Model S (90D/12-2015). It must be OEM. The carbon spoiler (clear carbon coated) offered through ebay are not allowed in Germany. Maybe you got your car wrapped or dismounted your spoiler for some other reason. Problem: I´m located in Germany...

    My first Model X encounter

    THX for the really impressive video (@ MikeL just lower the volume to "0" instead of suicide - seriously :wink: ) In my mind I was alread fixed to a 6-seater - now I´m reconsidering the 7-seater configuration again. 6-seater just for long luggage to be loaded through. 7-seater for the great...

    Nice Bike Rack for the X....

    Great bike carrier and super pictures. Congrats and thanks for it. Haven´t seen that type here in Europe so far. But the system is really cool. Now I just got another item on my endless shopping list! :wink:

    Production X Configuration Has Begun!

    Maybe even later. Tesla seems to be fully working on the US & Canada Model Xs. Despite our insane European delay I´m keen on getting the prices for Europe as they will be quite a lot higher compared to the US. (Just compared the Model S prices though and it´s frustrating too. We will get...

    Production X Configuration Has Begun!

    Thanks mikevbf and SSRLMD for the warm welcome. As a dedicated Tesla junkie I´m following you up as a hidden reader for almost two years. :redface: The even later start in Europe results IMHO from reducing the financial risk of problems in serial productions and of course general changes for...

    Production X Configuration Has Begun!

    Here in Europe we go crazy. My reservation was #2559 in early 2014 (no sig) including deposit and we have no idea when we are allowed to configure. Reading the TMC postings since 2 years and running my fifth Model S I can´t avoid getting jealous here in good old Germany. :wink:
