    Model X wheel covers similar to 3/Y?

    It is odd to me that there seems to be a bunch of custom parts for 3/Y but not X. I like the look of my existing wheels which are the standard 19-inch that came with my 2018 MX but wish I could bolt on a cover to make them have a darker or different appearance. Below is an example of what I'm...

    Easy Entry Bug or Functioning as intended?

    I guess I found one of those differentiators then between years. I wonder why there would be any difference, the motors in both the seating and steering column would be close or similar. Just annoyed that I went round and round with the service center and it seems like it's functioning as...

    Easy Entry Bug or Functioning as intended?

    I've had a ticket open with support for the better part of a month after the Baltimore SC "forgot" to look into my easy entry issue. I have a 2016 MS 75D running the latest build and I think Easy Entry may be broken for me. The seat and steering wheel move sequentially not simultaneously meaning...

    Supercharger - Bellefonte, PA

    For us PSU fans, we can finally rejoice! I see that the official Tesla page states that a supercharger in Bellefonte will be open by the end of 2017! I'm just hoping it is in time for PSU vs. Michigan!

    Service Center not stocking replacement tires?

    I think everyone is missing the greater concern in that the Service Center should have stockpiles of replacement tires for situations such as this. I understand they offer the ranger service but this is more of a concern for when M3 is released. Shops don't always carry replacement parts but...

    Service Center not stocking replacement tires?

    From what I've gathered, Tesla Service Centers will not patch tires but only replace them. I should have had it towed to a nearby tire center whom would likely have patched the tire.

    Service Center not stocking replacement tires?

    Sadly my Model S 75D hit a nail driving to fireworks yesterday for the 4th. I noticed pressure slowly leaving the tire so I parked in a safe location and made a call to roadside assistance. I was amazed at how quick the service was. They got my car towed to the nearest service center within...

    I called Tesla in PA this week and was told that they do not buy back their cars. They directed me to CarMax and eBay....

    Supercharger - Harrisburg, PA

    Are there issues with plugging in when it is down pouring?

    [POLL] Would you prefer a bigger battery or less SuperCharger tapering?

    I voted for more superchargers because I want EV's to be widely adopted. To do that, costs need to come down and if that means shipping a smaller battery on vehicles but more superchargers, that's my preferred way to go. Not everyone can afford these vehicles. I want to see a 18k EV that can...

    Do you keep Creep on or off?

    Just turned it off after replying to this thread. Had no idea that you could release the brake whenever the vehicle is stopped. My world is literally rocked.

    Do you keep Creep on or off?

    I can't believe how many people have it turned off. I turned it on from delivery and never tried anything else. I guess I'm missing out!

    Supercharger - Harrisburg, PA

    I tweeted in thanks to the Weis in Hburg for supplying the power but I did not buy groceries. Try to show my gratitude in any way I can!

    Vendor Dashboard for Tesla - the better app for your Tesla

    First off congrats and thank you for developing on Android. I don't think there's enough love for that platform with these cars. I purchased Remote S on iOS and with the $10 price tag, I was happy to do it. Seeing people complain about the price early on in this thread made me think it was a...

    TeslaFi.com

    Could not have asked for better info. Thank you so much for providing such a detailed write up. I assume that since you use teslafi you are happy with said numbers vs. data that is yielded?

    TeslaFi.com

    Does using Teslafi increase vampire drain? I'm perfectly fine without having the data if it is going to constantly ping the car and keep it awake and consume battery even when it's sitting in a public garage. What sort of timeouts are built in? Has Teslafi stated what to expect in terms of...

    How much does Home Charging installation cost?

    I paid 1300 for install + the cost of the HPWC from Tesla. My install had to route from the basement so not necessarily an easy install and the electrician whom did it was Tesla certified and put a breaker right next to the wall charger which has already proved useful for quickly resetting the...

    Model X didn't warn when my wife was backing up the car and hit a parked car

    Sure be mad but like he said, she continued to reverse without knowing where she was going. These technologies do not replace the driver. Usually hitting a parked car is pretty embarrassing considering you're the only one moving...

    Supercharger - Bloomsburg, PA

    No of course not it's just another city in PA I'd like to see more superchargers around. Look around New York and Maryland and there are many options where you could make a poor assessment and still find somewhere to supercharge. My ask is State College but really central PA is for the most...

    Supercharger - Bloomsburg, PA

    I agree with your assessment but going north from Central PA is a trip. State College is a nice midway point between existing superchargers in case you needed to make a trip to Buffalo per say. The population density booms there as well on weekends so a supercharger, although potentially...

    EZ Pass Mounting- Problem Solved

    Maybe it's in the rotation of the transponder vertically? I don't take notice of the direction it is facing.

    EZ Pass Mounting- Problem Solved

    Also in PA and I've had my MS for about a month. Has not worked once vertically. Will try the horizontal approach today. I've been holding mine up until I find the solution but not sure if that really matters.

    Using TeslaFi?

    Great tool but to me it's the benefits of the software vs. the constant communication to the car. I often leave my car at BWI airport and as such, the battery enters deep sleep so it drains very minimally. Tools that have API access to the car tend to ping for the latest information even when...

    Wiki Supercharger Progress

    I think with the upcoming M3, they absolutely lay out a plan of how they can support that many cars on their network.

    Supercharger - Bloomsburg, PA

    Since we mentioned Penn State, I've submitted a request for a SC in a Sheetz by PSU. There are some serious gaps in central and northern PA that can make it difficult. I thought State College would be a good location for those going east/west or even north from MD/VA.

    Finally have my delivery date. Picking it up 9/20 at noon in Devon, PA. Anyone else picking up around that time?

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Same here my friend. My DS is on a nice little vacation without notice to me and I've not been notified at all for changes of production to transit. All I can suggest is call the delivery location and chew them out. It wasn't until I went to the sales dept and let them know that they are...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Should I be worried that my car went into Transit without a message from my DS? I feel like I'm an after thought but he hasn't communicated with me during production or in transit. It's only been in transit for a few days and I know he's on vacation but I would hope someone else would pick up...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Waiting to talk to my DS but just went in transit to Devon, PA. I assume it'll be 14-17 days but my DS is on vacation and the person in his OOO is out of the office today! I would assume that when the car hits transit, they give you a delivery date? Would be much easier for me to plan...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Still awaiting production. Does it normally take this long? My DS said he expects it to enter production next week but that late sept-oct delivery date seems favor the later dates. What stinks is you can't confirm your order any quicker than the week time slot. I was told that they no...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I had been talking to the Tesla sales rep for about a year and I told him in August that I was recently in a car accident and would be ordered an MS. He offered it to me if I ordered this month. I pulled the trigger that day. Had no idea of the discount but was ready to jump on board when he...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I also received the dest and doc discount. Ordered 8/13 Confirmed 8/19 and has yet to arrive to production. I asked my DS if this will affect the discount so waiting to hear back on that. My delivery window is late sept - oct and I selected ASAP for delivery.

    What Swag did Tesla give you at delivery?

    Did you have to ask for all of these? I know my sales person said if I ordered in the store he'd give me a t-shirt but I wanted to do it at home in private like I'd done 100 times before.

    Seriously now, who is ever going to upgrade their battery...

    I agree that Auto-Pilot is the kicker here. For the post above, that's assuming that AP 2.0 won't be able to be retrofitted to your 15 85D. Given the recent news, my car goes into production next month so I feel comfortable that the housing and harnesses will be there to support AP 2.0. If...

    Seriously now, who is ever going to upgrade their battery...

    I have a 72 month loan on a 75D. If for some reason I find that range not to be enough, I would consider a new battery if the price is feasible. The thing is, these cars are meant to be updated, they are meant to have replaceable batteries. These factors are why I considered a 72 month term...
