    Right Headlight Malfunction Detected

    Car has a mind of its own. Yesterday I got a Left Headlight Malfunction Detected warning on drivers screen and the left light on the car animation was out. Light wasn't working. Next time I got in the car, light is working and no warning. Today I get the Right Headlight Malfunction Detected...

    Tesla Phone Hold Time Greater than 1 Hour

    Anyone else have problems getting through to Tesla? Both yesterday and today they have greater than 1 hour hold time, Not sitting on the phone that long. Interesting enough, if you select that you don't have a Tesla 3 on order, the wait time drops to 5 minutes. For those looking to make...

    What Preventive Maintenance Does Everyone do

    I have a 2016 Model S with 31K miles on it. Really haven't done any preventive maintenance, do I need to? What are others doing? I don't find the yearly service very valuable since I've driven almost 30K miles in one year, seams like over kill to spend 800-1000 a year on checkups when they...

    Academic Exercise - Effect of the end of Federal Rebate on M3 CPO pricing

    Why would they lower the price when they have more on order than they can delivery. Maybe in 2019 or 20, but not in 2018. Keep in mind, there are plenty of people looking for a 3 outside the US, where they may not have large rebates.

    Tesla Branded Music Service?

    Big mistake, spend the time improving the current media interface. The media interface is more buggy than any car I have ever owned, very embarrassing. Focus on the car, not music services. For the price one pays fro these cars, you should expect a top notch interface. What good is the big...

    Federal Tax Credit Personal Limit Per Year?

    I'm not sure that there is a limit but you have to have a tax liability to take advantage of the tax credit. It's not your typical credit where if your tax liability was 4500, you would get a 3000 check on a 7500 tax credit. The 7500 tax credit is only good up to your tax liability.

    Elon says no Central Speedometer

    My concern is the screen appears to be exposed, meaning that you can bump into the edges of the screen. I would hope that the final version has the screen flush with the cars trim, like on the S.

    House Breaker Box Maxed Out

    I wasn't aware the Tesla charges could talk to each other, how do you set that up? If you can't get the charges to talk to each other (to share a 50 amp circuit), then you could just wire both chargers to the same 50 amp circuit and set up the cars to charge at different times. I typically...

    House Breaker Box Maxed Out

    Really depends on how you want to set it up. My utility requires a separate meter (one line from the pole to two meters) if you want to take advantage of the lower overnight rates. This separate meter is running to a dedicated breaker box. If you need to upgrade your power from the pole, I...

    House Breaker Box Maxed Out

    You will also need to think about the service coming into the house, that will likely need to be upgraded (new lines from the pole) if you only have 150 amp service now. The key here is you want to be able to pull 80 amps just for the cars, thats over 50% of your load on your main breaker...

    Is there a way to tell how much electricity the car is using

    Want to know how much of my monthly utility bill is going to charge my Tesla S, any way to look up on the Tesla? Thinking about adding a seperate EV Meter for overnight rates but want to know how much I am using now to see if it's worth the investment. Thanks

    Smart phone mirroring - Elon Paris Q+A

    Is Auto-pilot harsh on brakes?

    AP deffinetly is hard on the brake pads. Yes, the brake pedal moves when AP applies the brakes, it's how I figured out it wsa the actual brakes being applied. I agree, a softer approach to slowing down would be appreciated.

    Bloomberg Tesla Autopilot Accident Story Today

    They just want to blame someone or something for their mistake. If anyone who drives a Tesla with AP believes the term AutoPilot is a blank check for not paying attention, then they aren't smart enough to be on the road. Maybe they should stick to bicycles in the park:-)

    They said "you can't stay on 7.0 forever. .."

    The way I see it, Tesla didn't take away any features as the OP claims, they updated a few functions. Autopilot works as advertised, Tesla doesn't specify all the different functions of autopilot so the two changes the OP is complaining about are not out of specification. Anyone and everyone...
