Hello I’m having trouble getting answers to some (seemingly) basic questions regarding the model Y. Trying to decide between the RWD and AWD atm. 1) Is the list of differences between a 2024 RWD and AWD the following: Battery capacity, Charge Speed, Drivetrain/acceleration, Audio system, and...

I just ordered an inventory car. I’m reading here that I had to select FSD as an option on the new car while ordering for the transfer to work? Since I didn’t do that and already paid the deposit is there anyway to fix this issue?

Hello A couple questions Firstly if I transfer FSD do I also lose EAP on the original car (2018). Will I at least end up with Autopilot or just dumb cruise control. Secondly does this offer require delivery in quarter three or just an order? How long can I delay delivery if I order in...

I also have a 3 which I payed for FSD on. Anyways that’s irrelevant bc it shows someone purchasing a new car today has no idea what surprises could be in store for them. As a matter of fact there seems to be a lot of people like me who were passionate enough to be “2 Tesla households” who are...

A lot of posters are making the argument that Tesla can't "coddle" or devote too many resources to service while they are ever expanding. I understand that, and I have been willing to give the company many passes in the past, but at some point gross negligence is simply that. Lets leave the...

Hey guys I guess this post will be a half rant, half counseling session. A little backstory: I purchased my first Tesla back when Tesla only made one car. The "sales" staff made a huge point at the time not to sell cars, but to act more like museum curators, explaining the technology and...

I noticed some fencing off in the parking lot of Safeway (2558 Berryessa Road) and am wondering if that is a potential new supercharger site. On the permitting page of the building it mentions they are installing 4 150Kw Ev charging stations City of San José Online Permits I'm beginning to...

Im an early LR owner and still haven’t received the 310-325 mile increase even after 5.11. I’m now on 7.11. Should I be worried?

Hang in there guys. My check was just cashed yesterday, almost 7 weeks from mailing It seems wait times have increased significantly

Mailed 1/3. Still nothing

With this new reduction in options the only real options (besides software and wheels) on a Model S are paint and interior. Therefore there are 6 *3 =18 combinations for Model S 75D and 100D and only 12 for P100D. Tesla can now safely build cars then match them to orders in inventory. Also...

Agreed. As a matter of fact everyone with a garage should just get a free Tesla.

Alright, from some more driving I noticed a number of interesting “quirks and features (Doug Demuro style)” with the drive on nav system. 1) As I first discovered in the video, you have to press the “drive on NAV” button on the navigation screen to activate it even after having activated the...

Ok so I noticed most people haven't seem to have gotten the new update and, knowing how excruciating the wait can be, I made a video demonstration of the feature to maybe make the wait more (or less) bearable. Now I'm clearly a novice in YouTube filmmaking so don't expect too much :( The...

Did a drive with drive-on-nav WOW is it impressive. I have to say its leaps even above 39.7 so definitely not a meaningless update. Two things particularly stood out to me: 1) The biggest AP improvement is traffic recognition. What I mean by this is the inevitable situation wherein you're in...

I have an early vin (<10000) rwd.

Just received the update (42.2). Also includes key fob support and increased regen braking

Just went in for service at Fremont and confirmed with them that Tesla is indeed phasing out entirely its in-house loaner fleet. Instead they are using enterprise which rents out both Teslas and gas cars Here’s the problem with that: Enterprise Teslas are horrible. They are always 75Ds without...

EAP on the freeway will be limited by two main factors; Nags and hardware Nags because Tesla wants to differentiate FSD from EAP principally through nags (level 2 vs level 3/4) Hardware because HW2/2.5 is simply not capable of running at the same level at HW3. For reference see Jimmy’s post...

Ok I’ll admit it. I’ve never played any of the games on V9 in my childhood so I’m utterly confused. Also the Tesla controls make it even more confusing. It would be nice if someone released a video tutorial on how to play each of the games and the car controls for each. I’m sure you’d get a...

My Aero wheels make a ticking/creaking noise which can be heard at low speeds from outside the car (or with windows down). I brought this up to Tesla Service and they said this was a known issue and is essentially a design flaw of the Aeros the only remedy for which is using the second wheel...

And 4 days from initial release v9 is yet to have been released to Model 3s it’s only S and X for now

If the camera was closed beforehand you get the larger screen. If the camera was already opened while driving it remains in its position at the bottom. Im pretty sure it used to work the same in 8.1 (besides the fact that it can't be permanently kept open at the top anymore)

Is the upcoming on-ramp to offramp capability essentially the final major EAP feature? The car can already take sharper curves than AP1 so perhaps we can say auto steer plus is already available?

Sorry if I missed something but I’ve yet to see any pics of the main screen interface for the Model S. I’m wondering if we can still do split screen with the camera or how that looks when selected.

I use it all the time on the S and it’s very useful. I’m talking about 2 family members who alternately use the car and therefore don’t have to constantly switch profiles.

I want to have the ability to link driver profiles to specific smartphones

Silver metallic is amazing. Ceramic coat it and the gloss is amazing.

hmm... Fill me in pls when he said this exactly

All those giving the response that you can get EAP later you’ll just end up spending 11k and not 5k which was the original question. If you live in a warm climate and your commute is more freeway and in traffic, get EAP. If you have a more scenic commute or will get more opportunity to drive...

No I did not That makes sense. I did notice the kW drop much earlier.

Totally beat the 170 miles in 30 minutes &@$#

Anyone else getting a whopping 480+ miles an hour charge? What’s more impressive is that the charge rate doesn’t seem to taper until very late, after 90%. I charged from 12 rated miles until 295 in just 45 minutes! I also had the 100D S for a couple weeks as a loaner but I don’t recall it ever...

I got fed up and switched from Android to IPhone. Don’t love the iPhone experience but the phone key working all the time made it worth it

When are Matte and Brushed metal coming back? Unfortunately ruined my first install, going to have to redo. I’m planning to do the switches as well, which color do you personally recommend? I like the carbon fiber look but am afraid it will contrast the wood too much? I have matte black right...

Yikes. Dunno if it’s just me but it looks like you directly hit one of the ultrasonic sensors?

OK I didn't intend that it's similar to a Camry in that sense, just that you could probably seat the same people and hold the same luggage in both with similar cabin space. Otherwise I'm with you in the Camry hate. The showroom car should give you a good enough take on size. If you really want...

Imo the Model 3 is not a "small car." I don't know exact specs but for interior room and cargo capacity but it feels to me similar to a Toyota Camry. This could be because of the glass roof and minimalist dashboard design. It drives smaller than it feels however. The Model S just feels like a...

They aren't the executive rear seats but they are the limited production Next Gen rear seats. They were offered for a short while with front seats for 3600 until tesla discontinued the rears and sold the standard rear seats with next gen front seats for 2500

After a little searching I found this quote (must be from some press release) Enhanced Autopilot adds new capabilities to an already advanced driving experience. The enhancements include going from one to four cameras – two redundant forward facing, left rear and right rear to see...

The way I see it: They need the side cameras for auto lane change and entering and exiting off ramps, so those have to be there. Of the front facing cameras the wide angle needs to be there for autosteer plus. That leaves them to choose from the long range or medium range cameras as the fourth...

I read somwhere on this forum immediately after the AP2 announcement that the 4 cameras to be used are 2 of the forward facing cameras and the 2 rearward side cameras.

Seeing all the negative reviews of 21.9 and reports of increased nags and worsened AP2 behavior I decided to differ on installing version 21.9 on my S and 3. For those who have installed it, is this a good idea or not?

I'll be holding my breath At 11:59 PST August 31st My guess is you'll be able to autopark after exiting the car. Ie the car will parallel park and perpendicular park itself. Seems like the easiest FSD feature to turn on

Elon announced on Twitter red leather will be coming on S and X next year... Something tells me it will be more than just an extra color choice

3 months maybe, 6 months definitely...

Even with pausing it doesn't work What is the issue? Is it with certain cars? Certain USB sticks? Are there any previous threads you could link to? Thanks

I like listening to lectures and audio books which I have loaded onto a USB stick (SanDisk Ultrafit 3.0 128gb) Every time I exit the car and reenter the entire USB audio shuts off and the car goes to Bluetooth audio for some reason. Using the same USB in the Model S it resumes every time...

Happens to me as well. Just hold the brake down while closing the door and it won't turn off
