    How to remove the center module?

    I didn’t figure it out... I ended up cancelling the check and a new one was issued. When I took my car in for annual service, i didn’t bother asking them to fetch it.

    Annoying Vibration, Passenger Door... I think

    i took my car into the costa mesa service center last week for a rattling passenger speaker - didn't get fixed... not only that, but they dinged my back rim... had to go back in today and they buffed up the rim to patch up their mistake.. while driving home, noticed the speaker still rattles...

    trunk opens half way

    my back trunk opens only about half way with the keyfob and with the control screen... to open it 'all the way', it has to be manually pushed open (vertically)... initially i thought it was while in a garage space, but the same occurs in an open parking lot. is this normal, or a mechanical...

    Model X 60D is Gone

    agree me too - i'm waiting and hoping for them to reduce the upgrade price for 60 --> 75... i think the prices do fluctuate, i was able to get the AP upgrade for $2500 when i ordered... went up to $3000 more recently.

    V8.0 rant

    i think the music media player is better, but i agree with the hidden top toolbar being a little bit annoying.. also i don't like the car formally unlocking when it senses the keyfob. i also was looking for a way to turn this off... agree, the autopilot seems a bit worse... it keeps asking me...

    Model X 60D is Gone

    someone at a supercharger told me that the rumors are they won't offer super charging for the model 3... this is a good article about what may be announced next week and in the coming month or two: http://seekingalpha.com/article/4011174-nature-teslas-new-product

    Model X 60D is Gone

    i was going to create a thread for this, but seems like it was briefly brought up in this one... i have a 60D.. which has the 75D battery in it, right? (hence why it's upgradable after the fact at any time). question - do i really need to charge at 90% for daily commute, if this is really <90%...

    Pulled over by a cop on Day 1

    I asked a CA highway patrol directly whether or not it was legal to tint the front driver and passenger windows and he said it is illegal. He was up front and said that he personally wouldn't ticket someone but that even a clear coat is illegal. Idea behind it is you're ever stuck they can't...

    Keyfob functions

    agree with keyfob opening the driver and passenger doors in the front... regarding the doors, once in the driver seat, pushing the brake is a nice way to close the door. i could've sworn before this would close all the doors (eg front passenger), but now (not sure if after the recent software...
