    Wiki MASTER THREAD: Actual FSD Beta downloads and experiences

    Yes I did a couple of longer trips prior to last Friday with Autopilot on and there were some instances of hard braking. I didn't get dinged at all. I saw somebody else mention that Elon said you wouldn't be penalized if under autopilot. So in my experience that has held true. Thus when I...

    Wiki MASTER THREAD: Actual FSD Beta downloads and experiences

    In my first drive this morning it was "rolling" the stop signs. I had the lane changes set to medium. I moved that down one notch and that seemed to make it much better. So good tip here!

    Big New Update

    I assume it will but haven't tried. A few months back the user green found this update in the code and the assumption was they would use it to monitor folks who do the beta for FSD to make sure they are using it correctly. With this update coming, that seems like it's the case. I'm personally...

    Big New Update

    I just updated to 2021.32.5 on my MY and it says the inside camera is now on and part of autopilot monitoring! I didn't read about that anywhere that it was coming now. FYI I am not part of FSD beta.

    12V battery replacement cost at Orlando Service Center?

    In March of this year my battery literally started leaking and the car died (2016 MX). They came and towed the car from my house and replaced the battery. I had zero charges. This was at the Orlando service center and I was still under my 3 year warranty. Maybe because mine was "Found the...

    Model x doors over time

    For reference my MX is July 2016 (built in June I assume) with 50k miles and have had zero issues with FWD (knock on wood).

    I've been wondering the same thing. Hoping somebody locally there can give an update. Thanks for asking this one!

    Purchasing a 2016 X. Anything I should be aware of?

    I have a 2016 75D MX and really haven't had much of any issues with it. My battery loss has been really better than average I think (100% = 224) after almost 50K miles. There is the shuttering issue with hard acceleration that many earlier MX's are experiencing that they don't really have a...

    Anyone got SunPass working yet? (Florida)

    On my 3 I have the mini sticker right below the front camera assembly and it works just fine. Same for my X.

    Does WiFi work yet?

    No it doesn't and it's a great question. Don't understand why this isn't enabled yet, especially with all the updates they are pushing and all the additional M3's hitting the road.

    What two USB phone connectors come with the Model 3 delivery?

    Pretty sure mine was a mini-usb (plus lightning). That was February though so things could have changed since then. I ended up purchasing a second lighting and had them install at delivery since we are an IOS family.

    Touch-less Car Wash in Orlando

    I am anxious to see responses here too. I live in NE Orlando and haven’t been able to find one myself after many google searches. Gotta believe there is one down near the attractions but that isn’t close to me.

    Rear motor disabled

    Hardware for sure...Although I suppose if they think software caused it then perhaps they could fix it that way. But the fact that they replaced the HV fuse and rear drive unit seems hardware to me...

    Mine's in my signature. Delivery mid Feb with vin 50xx. Think the production month was January.

    Rear motor disabled

    Since I wasn't going fast at all by the time I realized what was happening I came to a stop, albeit right near the upcoming stop sign. So I put it in neutral and we pushed the car over to the side of the road. I'm thankful this didn't happen at highway speeds as that could have been pretty...

    Rear motor disabled

    Wow and I thought it was just me. This exact thing happened to me last week. Was driving on a local road going 25 mph and all of a sudden the car just stopped with the same messages, rear drive disabled and pull over. I tried the reboot, get out of the car and back in, etc. and nothing...

    Advice: How to get tech-averse wife to embrace Model 3

    Here's a different angle. Have her read up about Tesla, Elon, SpaceX, etc. and what they are all about and what Elon and company are trying to do to make this world a better place with their efforts. That helped my wife really understand Tesla as a company and Elon as a person and what he is...

    Green Car Reports: Model 3 quality is terrible

    Had my M3 for 2+ weeks now, been on a road trip already, and over 800 miles. Have had zero issues. Like most things on reviews or the internet, it's the complaints you hear more about and not the happy ones.

    Model 3 Initial Impressions

    Glad you liked the post. I would suggest dropping by the Orlando SC as they are getting more and more M3”s to deliver. When I picked up mine they had 4 of them sitting in the parking lot but coned off. While you can’t sit in it at least you could walk around and see it. Of course call first to...

    Model 3 Initial Impressions

    @Terthen - We did end up tinting the MX upper windshield with 3M heat resistant stuff and that did the trick. The sun shade did work but I didn't care to have that up there all the time. I honestly was worried I was going to have to do the same thing with the M3 but so far I think I am...

    Model 3 VIN53XX Delivery Fail - 1 hour notice

    Sorry to hear about your experience. I just took delivery of my M3 last week and VIN is kinda close to yours and I have had no issues. Sounds like poor work on part of SC in waiting so long to work on the car. That said, I had issues with my MX. I think maybe 1-2 days before delivery they...

    Model 3 Initial Impressions

    Thanks for the reply. Your right that the charge rate is the same, my point was more like you said I am getting more miles per hour than the MX from the same circuit which is great. In fact, sometimes I get 38 miles an hour. Good to hear about the manual coming soon.

    Model 3 Initial Impressions

    TMC Forum Readers - I took delivery of my Model 3 on 2/14 and thought I would pen a quick post on my initial impressions, hoping that some of my points might be new to others. Now a little background before I get into it... I have been part of the forum for 2 years now, when I was serious...

    Tesla owner configurations begin

    So update. My delivery date is now set for 2/14 so much earlier than end of month. And I asked if the car was already built and he said yes, which I assumed was the case if they could get it to me in 2 weeks. Can’t wait!

    Vin 50XX assigned yesterday with delivery by end of Feb. Seemed kinda late but I am Florida so that doesn’t help timing I’m sure.

    PAST EVENT: Celebrate the Opening of the West Melbourne Superchargers

    Performance Enhancement for my late Q3 2016 Model X

    I called the Orlando SC yesterday and the tech didn't know what I was talking about regarding this upgrade. But he checked my account/VIN anyway and it didn't say that I had it or would get it. Bummer. :(

    Aero Wheels on MX to improve range!?

    I was actually just thinking the same thing. Even if it isn't 10%, a 5% improvement for highway driving would be awesome.

    Supercharger - Altamonte Springs, FL

    I was in the area tonight for dinner and drove around. Didn’t see anything going on yet unfortunately. My guess for a spot is to the left of the Ulta as there are several “compact” parking spaces that they could convert over for tesla spaces.

    Just ordered my Tesla HPWC!

    I bought the 8' version last year with my MX. Now wishing I had bought the longer version with the 3 coming. Totally agree that if you think you might charge 2 cars at once the HPWC is the way to go since they can talk to each other and share the same circuit. That alone could save you hundreds...

    Expected rate of charge chart for supercharging?

    I have experienced varying rates at SCs in Florida. I finally got smart and decided to move around to different stalls until I found one that was at the high rate that I expected. Like others have said, it's a common occurrence and the only solution I know of is to move to another stall...

    X: What's your 90%?

    Thought I would share that after 1 year of ownership and almost 23,000 miles my 90% is 213. Was around 214 when I first got the MX and I am very surprised on how well it is holding there.
