    Quality of recent delivery VIN 250xxx

    I received my LR Model Y in Multicoat Red, White interior. VIN 250xxx here in Canada. I'm really impressed with how improved the quality of production is. This is my third Tesla, and I have an extreme eye for detail. I've spent the last 3 days looking over my car at home before I get it...

    Spare parts for Model Y?

    In the last earnings call, Elon said that due to the chip shortage, they had to source chips from new suppliers and quickly re-write code in order to make the new parts work. As well, features such as the passenger lumbar support and radar may have been removed due to the parts shortage. Anyone...

    Rear seat belt stain on white seats

    I'm getting a black stain from the rear seat belt rubbing against the ultra white seats at the shoulder area. Any liner I can install to protect the seats?

    FSD price change in my account

    Anyone else notice that FSD upgrade is now reduced to be the same price as delivery? It is no longer "less now and more later". The wording on the order page also seems to have been changed. Or am I missing something?

    Sentry Mode AP2 Model X Set up

    So how do I record videos for my AP2 Model X? Does it matter which port I plug the flash drive into?

    USB for Sentry Mode and Splitter

    I tried to search the forum, but couldn't find the info I need. Can anybody help me suggest what size and brand of USB stick I should get for Sentry mode (128gb?), and also which USB splitter I should get (preferably from Amazon) so I can have two iPhone charging ports and sentry mode/dash cam...

    Bay Area Vandalism

    I’m planning a road trip to San Francisco this June. Are Model X’s being smashed and targeted in parking lots like Model 3’s are? If the epidemic is among all Tesla’s, I may change my plans. Sorry to all those who have been vandalized already.

    499km Advertised Long Range

    I always wondered why Tesla didn’t just advertise the long range 3 as 500km? Why only 499? Clearly the range estimation can’t be that precise!

    Paintless dent removal on Model 3

    Something fell from a tree, or was thrown at my car, and it left this dent in my hood. Is this something that paintlesss dent removal can fix? How perfect can they get it? The reason I’m not sure is because I can see that the model 3 hood has two layers of metal sandwiched together, making it...

    30,000 VIN vs 99,000 VIN

    Just got an X loaner today. My Vin is approximately 30,000, and the new loaner I got today was 99,000. The car overall is identical, except for the silver trim being changed to the new graphite colour. The most notable difference that I noticed between my car and the loaner was that the...

    Consumer Reports Talking Cars

    Besides the harsh ride quality, Consumer Reports criticized the low rear bench seat which offered no thigh support. Can some owners chime in and comment whether it is really that bad?

    White paint regrets?

    Do any Tesla owners that chose white regret their decision in wintery Canada? I've never owned a white car, but some friends are trying to convince me away from white because it shows dirt so easily. I'm in Vancouver.

    Cell phone charging

    I know this is off topic, but should I avoid charging my phone to 100% as we do with our Tesla's? I don't know what is myth and what is fact.

    Main screen won't turn on

    Normally I keep my car plugged in every night. Two weeks ago, I didn't plug in, and in the morning when I wanted to drive, the main screen stayed dark. The smaller display behind the steering wheel said "Depress brake pedal after car turns on", but the main screen would never come on. A reboot...

    Autopark

    I've used Autopark many times to parallel park and the car has never curbed the rims. I used to own a Mercedes S Class which would curb the rims all the time. Is Autopark really so flawless, or have other people curbed their rims when using this feature? Just wondering how much I should trust it.

    Rated range

    I just finished a 3000km road trip from Vancouver to Calgary, and I had no issues getting rated range. Temperature was around 26-30 Celsius with AC on. Admittedly I was driving conservatively, but still slightly above the speed limit and keeping up with traffic. Is this normal? I've heard...

    Navigating multiple stops

    I am going on a road trip tomorrow, and can't figure out how to add an additional supercharging stop mid way. As well, I can't add multiple stops to a route. Can someone tell me how to do this?

    Road trip and door latch paranoia

    As I was about to drive home, closed my driver's door and as it latches, it pops out again. Display shows door as open. Tried to open and close with touchscreen but still wouldn't latch properly. Had to slam the door a few times in order to close properly. When I got home, everything was working...

    Range mode

    I'm about to take my first road trip in my X60D. I know the range is short, but I'm not sure if I should use range mode or not. Some say it slows down supercharging speeds without increasing range much. Can you please provide advice? The other lesson that I've read here is to focus on reducing...

    Charging frequency and battery life

    I charge my X60D every day. Does charging frequency affect the health of the battery? Should I be charging every other day instead?

    Does anybody NOT wrap their cars?

    It seems that everybody on these forums wrap their cars, and spend a lot to do it as well! I'm curious how the Tesla soft paint withstands years of use without any protection. I've never felt the need to do any paint protection on my other cars, but none have had such delicate paint as my Model X.

    X60D Range Anxiety

    I will be going on my first road trip this summer in Canada, and have never used superchargers before. The longest gap between superchargers on my trip is 200km, or 125 miles (Kelowna to Revelstoke). Even though the X60D is rated for 320km (200 miles), I'm never able to get even close to this...

    XPEL Hood and Bumper

    My car is leased, but I still want to protect it somewhat without spending a lot. I planned on just wrapping the bumper and hood - but would the non-wrapped adjacent front fenders look mismatched over time due to wear? Or would they look mismatched immediately due to one panel being wrapped and...

    Model X vs S

    I just got a loaner Model S P90D today, and first impression is that both cars drive similarly, though of course the Model S is much lower and handles better. Two obvious things stood out in the first 30 minutes I drove it: regenerative braking is not as strong as in the X, and the stock sound...

    Why do my brakes squeak like crazy in the morning, but get better after driving for a bit? Is there something wrong?

    5 vs 6 seater

    Does the 5 seater second row have more headroom (possibly due to lower bench) and more legroom than the 6 seater? Wondering if anyone can verify or dispute this.

    Model X Interior Design

    Just got my X on Monday, and been showing off to some friends. A few people actually burst my bubble by saying that the X interior doesn't look luxurious enough given its high price. Thoughts?

    Model X 60D Range

    I would like to ask current owners of the Model X 60D whether they find the range of the car adequate for their needs. Any observations would be greatly appreciated. My car is coming in a few months.

    Should I buy the Model X?

    After Consumer Reports reliability warning, should I put a deposit down on my Model X? Two questions for current owners: 1) When did you get your Model X? 2) Would you buy it again knowing what you know now? (Forgive me if I'm rehashing a thread that has been brought up before!)
