    Car wont start! Stuck in grocery store parking lot

    Folks as an update, the firmware update was fixed at the service center. I took a taxi over there to pick up the car and drove back. Did get a free wash out of the whole thing and the car looked fab when I picked it up ! PS : Minor irritant was that the tech forgot to properly reattach the...

    TX license plates

    I am hoping a fellow TX member can help me out. I leased a P90DL and now my temp paper tag is about to expire. What is the process to get the permanent tag? Does it get mailed to me or do I need to go to the DMV and do something? Since it's a lease... The tax etc has all been paid upfront...

    Not charging at 72 a from hpwc

    Hi Tam... In both cases I did not touch anything and the car started charging on its own at 56 and 72. It could be the case that this was fixed before I took it in with an OTA and I never noticed. The wait for the service appointment was 2 plus weeks and I stopped looking and assumed it was...

    Not charging at 72 a from hpwc

    Update: Finally had my long awaited appointment and now I am more confused than ever 1. Took the car in. They looked at it and said that everything is configured exactly the way it should be and I should be enabled for 72 Amps. They said they did not change anything 2. They pointed back to HPWC...

    Not charging at 72 a from hpwc

    I called the number last night. The guy said he does not see the 72 amp upgrade in the car specs on his end. Said he would create a ticket for the service center and they will get in touch. Someone probably forgot to turn the option on in the factory......

    Not charging at 72 a from hpwc

    Hi folks.. The Dallas delivery center did not have 72 a. At home... The up arrow key does not take the amps any higher than 48. Dip switches were checked again by the install guy. Looks correct. See pic. Looks like the software thing never got enabled for me... Unfortunately I do not know...

    Not charging at 72 a from hpwc

    Folks.. Brand new model S... I had ordered the 72 amp upgrade. Also got HPWC installed at home. Plugged it in for the first time and it is getting 48amp from HPWC. Is this an HPWC installation issue or some setting I need to turn on? Pic attached

    Tesla Referral Program

    Folks...I read somewhere on these forums that one can apply a referral code right until you take delivery. We take delivery this Saturday but when I called Tesla...they can it cannot be added after order is confirmed and that we are way late. Is that correct? Anyone has any experience with this...

    72A charging option

    The P90DL is costing around $140k plus so gas savings is not in picture. This is for the wife.. I wake up most mornings to see her iPhone at around 2% battery left. She just does not charge it before going to bed. She isn't wired that way....dunno... Don't ask :-) So 72A when I was checking...

    72A charging option

    Appreciate the responses folks. Below is what I got back from the master electrician guy that came and took a look. I had asked him about a 50 amp option first and then going up to a HPWC per recommendations above. Is the assessment below reasonable along with the costs? HPWC Option...

    72A charging option

    Hey folks...I recently placed an order for a Model S with the 72A option in it. I admit that I did not do full research on it and checked the box. Now it is time to install 240 V circuit in the garage etc and looks like the 72A option is useless until I get the HPWC installed at home as well. Is...

    Extended Service Agreements No Longer Transferable?

    I wonder if this decision will make leasing more attractive than private buying. The higher residuals on leases encourage turning the car back in anyways...
