    Deteriorating falcon wing door moon roof gasket on early model X’s

    I complained about this exact thing under warranty for my late 2017 Model X to my service center 3 times. After the service writers refused, I asked nicely for escallations to the service center and district managers who all told me I'd have to pay $2400, and that they could not guarantee that...

    AutoPilot 2 Delivery Thread

    Congratulations on your new Tesla. You're going to love it. It will be awesome if you can post close ups of the mounting locations of all 8 of the cameras and ultrasonic sensors. Also if you don't mind, can you verify with your delivery specialist that the car will ship with the new Nvidia...

    AutoPilot 2 Delivery Thread

    Planning on ordering a second MX for our family. We're debating purchasing the Full Self Driving option if that's what needed to insure that all 8 cameras are installed on the car at the factory, rather than risking rattle/interior issues being caused by adding 4 cameras through a service...

    How did your V8.0 update go?

    Update: OK, my update completed and I am indeed on 8.0 (2.40.21) My Android app showed "Update Complete". Initially, I got worried because the instrument cluster (IC) said "Update Required: Please contact Tesla Service" I pressed both wheels to reset the 17" screen and after the reset, this...

    How did your V8.0 update go?

    Like many folks, I am always happy to wait for a more stable release. That being said, I received a notification on my Android App and in the car right at 12:00 Noon Pacific time that an update was released for my Model X. Hope this is (a stable build of) Version 8.0. Just got home and...

    Magnetic Phone Mount - What's Your Preferred Installation Location?

    I'm trying to not block the air conditioning vents with the clip on type. Any ideas are appreciated.

    Is Today (early) Version 8.0 day?

    mediocreguy is right. Well, the update finished and I'm still at Version 7.1 so this indeed was a release to fix some bugs. (Sigh) Hoping we're still on track for Wednesday's update...I'm excited about all of the upcoming changes!

    Magnetic Phone Mount - What's Your Preferred Installation Location?

    Hi all of you awesome TMC fans. I've really enjoyed my new Model X since receiving it about a month ago. I chose to not have Tesla install the phone dock because I use a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge and don't want to risk damaging the (brittle and sensitive) micro-USB port. I used a Scosche...

    Is Today (early) Version 8.0 day?

    Just went out to my Model X and had the "Software Update" notification on the screen. Could this be an early update release to the much anticipated Version 8.0? I started the update a few minutes ago and it said that it'd take 1 hour and 40 minutes to install...keeping my fingers crossed...

    The Model X needs a 2nd Row Center Console Option or Armrest

    So I took delivery of my new Model X (its name is Zamboni) last Saturday and am absolutely loving it. One of my unanticipated surprises is how often people come over to check out the car when I park. And I visited the Tesla Factory yesterday to take a tour and see the line where our cars get...

    How do you wash your Tesla?

    I get my Model X tomorrow. I'm hearing all sorts of opinions on washing the car. Some say to only hand wash a Tesla, others say to make sure that only soft shammies touch it, while others say it's OK to use a brush-less wash. Would you mind sharing which car you have, it's age (apparently...

    Included Mats in the Model X?

    A note on this comparison. The ForMyTesla mats are wonderful quality and include features like logos, edge piping and a heel mat. If you like these features, definitely consider them.

    Model X August Deliveries

    I experienced the same "under promise, over deliver" My Model X order was confirmed on 6/26/16 and I was told it would go into production in early August. The car is actually scheduled to arrive at my service center tomorrow (8/4) and I'm scheduled to pick it up next Tuesday, August 9th (due to...

    Included Mats in the Model X?

    I really love the ForMyTesla mats but can't justify a 2X cost premium. Great review of the Lloyd Luxe mats: Luxury Tesla Model X floor mats by Lloyd [Review] I was sent a coupon from a friend which deducted 20% off (plus free shipping) from these list prices: 2 pc Front Mats ($151.00) 1 pc...

    Lease vs. Buy Calculator (with tax credits)

    Tesla NEEDS to make a profit or they will be out of business or bought up by another auto maker. All of the major luxury manufacturers are working on EVs so it'll be a delicate balance of pricing Telsa's great cars to be "in the ballpark" and improving profitability by reducing costs. The...

    Lease vs. Buy Calculator (with tax credits)

    Thanks everyone for your input. I agree with the logic of a faster expected depreciation. If new technology comes around and there are additional entrants in the field, it's likely that the car will depreciate faster than expected which is why I will be leasing. By the way, one can't just...

    Lease vs. Buy Calculator (with tax credits)

    Some updates on what I've researched in making my lease vs. buy decision. Only some of the tax credits benefit the customer in Tesla's lease program for the Model X. I spoke with my financing manager and he showed me that the residual (amount you would pay to purchase the car at the end of the...

    Lease vs. Buy Calculator (with tax credits)

    Hello. I'm on the fence for my Model X to buy vs. lease. The geek in me says to lease since I'll probably want a new car in 3 years. But the finance part of me wants the full value of the tax credit. There are a lot of calculators out there but few have a place to input the value of the tax...

    Included Mats in the Model X?

    Very nice mats indeed, especially the piping, though they are quite a bit more expensive. Both appear to be very high quality. The ForMyTelsa mat set (complete set) is listed at $1,055.00 while the Lloyd Luxe mats were 585.00 after a 20% off discount coupon. Both include the front, 2nd and...

    Included Mats in the Model X?

    Thank you everyone for your input. A friend of mine just sent me a 20% off promotion code so I'll go ahead and place an order for Lloyd "Ultra" mats so I have them for my delivery in 10 days. The order sites for their dealers ask for the configuration of the Model X (6 or 7 seats) so I'm...

    Model X August Deliveries

    Congrats to all of the new Tesla owners out there. If I were in your shoes, I'd call and ask if there is a backup delivery specialist who can fill in to coordinate the delivery of your car this week! :-)

    Included Mats in the Model X?

    Thank you all for your warm welcome to the forum. I'm eagerly awaiting the delivery of my 6 seat Model X about 10 days from now. If you are an owner of the same config, can I get your help to confirm all of the mats that came with the car? Did you receive mats for just the floor areas in...

    Model X August Deliveries

    +XHokie Congratulations on your upcoming order. I'm just as excited! Just curious about your post since my Model X went into product last week and I'm supposed to take delivery about a week after you. When you went to the service center and saw the Model X in your photos, are you saying that...

    Any new July 2016 owners seeing added Auto-Pilot hardware?

    I appreciate the responses. I'm hoping to get feedback specifically from new Model X owners who received their car in the past 30 days. They will be the best suited to tell us what they are seeing on the latest cars coming off of the assembly line.

    How are your Ultra White Seats looking?

    Use a high quality automotive polish and then finish off with carnuba wax to take out the scuffs and make the back of your Model X seats look as good as new. I do this with my $70K polished ebony grand piano and it works great. (I learned this from a guy that refinishes pianos for many of the...

    How are your Ultra White Seats looking?

    Getting my Model X within 2 weeks and ordered it with tan leather seats. For what it's worth, I've experienced blue jean dye transfers on all of my previous cars with lighter colored leather (such as gray or tan). I finally found a product and technique that cleans the stains up nicely...

    ModelXBoy V2 Iron Man Edition - Finally Received! Red Hot!

    Congrats on your new Model X! My Model X is due to be delivered around August 10th. A couple of questions - 1) Does your car happen to have any visible signs of added AutoPilot hardware (such as a second radar or additional camera openings)? It'd be neat to see if Tesla is quietly adding any...

    Model X August Deliveries

    I'm in California and put down a $5,000 Model X deposit back in October. I placed the order in mid-June and am assigned a 112XX VIN. My delivery specialist confirmed that my car entered production this week (week of 7/25) and I should have around August 10th or so. Config: 90D, silver...
