    Master Charger for sale

    My 2013 P85+ with 55k miles just had this problem where it would not change on AC. It will charge at Supercharger which is DC. Tesla SC just sent me estimate of $2416.38 for reman part number 6009278-84-F plus $241.50 in labor. I guess I will ask for my original charger and replace the fuses in...

    Red light on charge port

    After 8 years of virtually trouble-free service, my P85+ is not charging. When I plug in the connector from either my HPWC or Clipper Creek, the port light flashes green and the either charging station will make 4 clicking sounds and then the port light turns solid red. Since the behavior...

    Wiki Consolidated eMMC Thread (MCU repair) (Black Center Screen)

    I just had my daughter board replaced for $330. Even if I had AP1, I wouldn't upgrade to MCU2 as I enjoy my Sirius XM and AM radio. I don't need to watch Netflix or YouTube and like yourself, I have supercharged less than 6 times even though I have free lifetime charging. And I unless I...

    Wiki Consolidated eMMC Thread (MCU repair) (Black Center Screen)

    Picked up my car this morning and now there is an LCD leak that wasn't there before. SC claims it was and my warranty expired last March. I had photos of the display but unfortunately, the area is black not white in the photo making it difficult to determine with 100% certainty. SC manager...

    Wiki Consolidated eMMC Thread (MCU repair) (Black Center Screen)

    Just had my MCU daughter board replaced on my 2013 P85+ for $335.50 ($120.80 part + $214.50 labor) as I had MCU_w007 error due to NAV maps not loading on 19-Sep after v10.2 (2020.36.3.1.58d6902aeb93) was pushed OTA. My car has only 53,544 miles. I have no 3rd party software but do have a USB...

    TPMS reset on V10

    I just had my TPMS receiver and sensors replaced with the Continental on my 2013 P85+. And now the left front is throwing a warning even though the indicated pressure is the same as the right front and both are only 1 psi higher than the spec in the door jamb placard. Is there really no rest...

    Supercharger - Morgan Hill, CA (LIVE 24 Oct 2019, 14 urban stalls)

    MH superchargers are open. Good thing since most of the city is without power due to the PSPS since 8:35pm last night. 4 stalls charging and only 32kW, just 2x the rate on my HPC at home.

    Rear air suspension ride height

    I have this same problem on my 2013 P85+. First time was In August and entire back end was riding super low even though setting was set to standard. Now the left rear is about 1/2" lower than right rear. Steering wheel is also off center to left a bit as a result. Taking to SC tomorrow which...

    2017.28.4 cf44833

    Took my P85+ in yesterday and they updated to firmware 2017.28.4 cf44833 to fix a Sirius XM issue that was caused by the last OTA update to 17.24.17. I immediately noticed that the rate of deceleration when regen braking is set to standard was lower than prior to the update. I much prefer the...

    How to view XM Channel list in 8.0

    My P85+ (October 2013 build) updated to 17.26.17 last week and now my SiriusXM does not work. I can see all the channels in dark black font, but they all play the XM0 preview station programming. I have rebooted the center display and sent activation signals twice, and nothing has fixed the...

    Daytime Running Lights (LEDs)?

    Will the new LED headlights be retrofittable? I would like better night-time driving lighting, but certainly do not want the DRL issue described in the OP. I was never a fan of DRL, but on my MS and my 991S cabrio, I prefer DRL as it does make my vehicles more visible and hopefully will...

    Supercharger congestion - a modest proposal

    I rarely charge at a Supercharger since I have a HPWC at home and don't take long road trips as my MS is a daily commuter. But today we took a 210 mile trip and I charged to top off to provide margin on the way home. Got there just in time as there were 4 open stalls. When I got back, all...

    Wheels advice please

    I have staggered 21" silver turbines on my P85+ and they ride just fine. I do have the air suspension though. And I'd sacrifice a bit of ride comfort for the improved look as the 21" fill out the wheel wells much better. The only downside is the 265/35 21 PS2 are $349 each before mount...

    Tesla Service Centers

    Just dropped my MS P85+ at the Sunnyvale (CA) service center and go stuck with Nissan Altima through Enterprise. I guess the Bay Area service centers just have too much business or too few loaners. There were 4-5 new Model X inventory cars on the lot. A lady was dropping her Model X (didn't...

    2016's getting pushed back?

    Yes, that is true. But all the fabrication equipment is shared. Tesla needs to invest in new equipment to ramp up Model III.

    2016's getting pushed back?

    I live in Silicon Valley and based on the carriers heading south on Hwy 101 from Fremont, I would say Model S delays are due to Model X production. I see two carriers per day (one morning and one evening) on my commute and it would appear that the Model X is making up 50% of the cars on each...

    Can't find a suitable CPO. Will you sell me your trade?

    Yes, I purchased from Tesla direct and took delivery at their Fremont delivery center. However, what I believe Tesla is doing is repurchasing cars out of their Colorado delivery centers and "importing" them for re-sale as that state is the only one that is giving tax credits for pre-owned EV...
