    Should Model S have left scroll wheel customization?

    Should the refresh Model S with software version 2023.12.9 have the option to customize the left scroll wheel on the yoke? I read how this was a feature online, but my car doesn't have it. I have tried a long hold and looked for the setting under the menus. Is this not available for the MS?

    Slow wireless charging?

    My iPhone 13 barley charges at all on the refresh Model S wireless charging pads. The phone indicates that the phone is charging, but after 20-30 minutes it might only increase its charge by 1%. My case is ultra thin, but I did try with and without case..same results. Anyone else run into this?

    Disable Phone Key - any downsides?

    Is there any downside to disabling the phone key on the Model S refresh? The car comes with 2 key fobs. I actually find it quite annoying that my car unlocks every time I walk by it in the garage. I'd much rather only use my keyfob to unlock the car. Any downsides that I am missing if I were to...

    Instrument cluster on refresh MS

    Can the display on the instrument cluster be customized on the refresh MS similar to how the original MS could? Also, is there an easier way to change songs to next from the yoke than using the left wheel and pushing it to the right? I find that very cumbersome.

    Enhanced Autopilot back

    Tesla is offering enhanced autopilot on new orders for 6k. I take delivery tomorrow on the refreshed Model S. Do folks thing it’s worth adding EAP? https://electrek.co/2022/06/24/tesla-relaunches-enhanced-autopilot-gutting-full-self-driving-package/

    How to go about selecting new wheels

    I am awaiting delivery of the refreshed Long Range Model S, and I realized that I really don't like the standard 19" wheels that come with the car. I've considered upgrading to the 21" wheels but I also don't love the look of the wheels Tesla offers (I realize I might be minority here)...

    Will delays help build quality?

    I am wondering whether the supply chain issues causing long lead times for the refresh Model S will actually work in favor for Tesla in terms of build quality and fixing other nit issues, both in manufacturing and software? It's well known that any new Tesla has a lot of issues before they...

    Changing order on new Model S LR

    I placed an order for the new Model S LR several months ago so I got locked into the original pricing. I want to remove a feature (FSD), but Tesla is treating the modification as if it's a brand new order, where the price of the car is the current price (15k increase) and the delivery date is...

    Tesla Long Range Price hike?

    I was on the phone with a sales advisor in Fremont and he kept telling me I should put the deposit down for the Long Range MS to secure the current price. I couldn't tell if this was a sales tactic or if he knew more information. The Base MS price has been pretty flat for a while now, so wanted...

    How long would you wait to get the redesigned Model S?

    If you know you want to get the new Model S, how long would you wait? If you hate the design or don't want to buy the new car this question isn't for you. Everyone knows that if you are waiting for the best version of a Tesla then you will wait around forever. That's not what this question is...

    Slow Infotainment after HW3 upgrade

    I noticed the infotainment has gotten really, really slow after upgrading from HW2 to HW3 (late 2016 MS, MCU 1). I've done my own troubleshooting and narrowed it down to the Tesla Dashcam. When I have a USB memory card plugged in and the dashcam is recording then I can almost guarantee the...

    Extended Service Agreement

    I tried searching for relevant posts in the last 12-18 months but didn't find anything. Tesla is notoriously capricious with their their practices, prices, etc so I wanted to get an updated discussion on what people think about the Extended Service Agreement (ESA)? My MS comes out of warranty...

    One year service...worth it?

    Thoughts on whether I should take my MS in for the 1 year service? Car is running perfect so far. This isn’t a lease so that might be motivation. Would love to hear from others out there.

    Has uncorking made other owners jaded?

    I was a lucky beneficiary of the recent 75D uncorking which brought the 0-60 time down to 4.2 seconds. While I could not be happier, I started wondering whether 90D and 100D owners felt any resentment? This question stems from analyzing the 0-60 times across the Model S family: Tesla Model S -...

    Charge dropping to 30A

    Our house recently had a 240V installed by the builder and I noticed that the car insists on charging at 30A. I will set the charging to 40A but the next time I charge it is back down to 30A. The voltage reads out at 240-245V by the car. I saw some threads on this but it does not look like...

    Referral program for Virginia (and Ohio) residents

    It looks like the Tesla referral program explicitly omits residents of Virginia and Ohio. Have any VA residents been able to circumvent this to receive their referral credit? This is a bit frustrating to me for obvious reasons. If anyone has any tips to cash in on the referral reward I would...

    Driver profile settings

    When the driver profile settings are linked to a keyfob, are the settings supposed to restore when you reenter the car? This is what I would expect but it's not working for me. For example, if I am using my profile and I move the steering wheel up without saving the new setting, I expect the...

    I've been stuck on firmware v17.17.4...anyone know of any tricks to try and get the car to perform a software update? I tried resetting the screen by holding the two scroll wheels - but no luck. I have a weak wifi signal so I am primarily on LTE. Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

    Disappointed with Tesla's all weather mats

    Has anyone else had issues cleaning their Tesla all weather mats? I picked these up in December 2016 and just can not get them cleaned. I have tried soap & water, soaking in soap, scrubbing, etc. The pics are after I cleaned the mats over the weekend. For what these mats cost I am really...

    How do I keep my Tesla on?

    I want to leave the windows down, playing music, while I am outside of the car. How do I do this? The only way I can get the music playing without being in the car is by leaving one of the doors cracked open.

    Was there an update to the touchscreen when the car is in reverse?

    I just upgraded to 17.3.15 over the weekend and I swear there has been a change to the display on the touchscreen when I am in reverse. But I am not actually sure. The backup camera is on half the screen and a birdseye picture of the car is on the other half of the screen. Was the birdseye...

    Should auto headlights work?

    I picked up a MS in mid December and since delivery my headlights always stay on. I have had 3-4 software updates and still no change. My questions to folks are: 1) should auto headlights work and 2) should auto highbeams work? Or is auto highbeam only part of certain packages?

    Here's how to fix an iPhone bluetooth issue

    This week my iPhone stopped working with my MS in a very particular and repeatable scenario. The audio through the bluetooth would not work if I was already on a call prior to getting into the car. When the bluetooth connection was established the person on the other end of the phone could hear...

    Where should I buy wheels?

    I've never swapped out the wheels/rims on a car but really want to for my MS. Any recommendations on where to shop if I do this online? Part of me is apprehensive about ordering without seeing them in person or on the car first. Any rec's for buying wheels online?

    Anyone upgrade the LED lights on the new Model S?

    I have a new MS as of mid December 2016 without the premium lighting upgrade. Has anyone done the Abstract Ocean LED light upgrades on one of these cars? Is the wiring still in place for all the other lights like in the older MS's?

    How many bars do you get on your 3G/4G connection?

    What are people using to clean their car?

    I'm curious what people like for cleaning the interior and exterior of their car? In the past I have used Meguiar's Endurance Tire Gel, Armor All (for interior), and Lexol to condition the leather. I'd love to hear what people recommend.

    Faster way to auto tilt mirrors?

    Most cars I have owned allow the auto tilting of mirrors during reverse to be toggled by the adjust mirror button on the drivers side door. Is there something similar with the the MS? I find it too cumbersome to dig through the menus while I am in the process of reversing. Sometimes I want the...

    Bluetooth won't allow media for Nexus 6P

    Summon on AP2.0

And conversely, can we stand outside of a building and have the car leave the parking spot and come automatically pull up to us? I haven't seen any details on this and would love to...

    Trading in Model S

    Anyone have any experience trading in or selling their Model S to the DS? We all know how much the CPO's sell for, but I am curious how much the DS pays for those cars before turning them over and reselling them. Are people losing a lot of money selling back to the DS?

    What accessories are people buying?

    110V for short commute?

    I drive less than 15 miles on average per day. Would people advise against using a standard 110V outlet to charge a MS 60D overnight? I thought I read a 110V outlet charges 3 miles/hour - which would suffice for overnight charging. Any thoughts on this? Is it a bad idea? Obviously if I took a...

    Ordered! Now when will I see it?

    My order for a new MS was confirmed last night. The delivery date was updated to late December or January 2017. Any idea how realistic it would be to get the car in December of this year? Does Tesla ever deliver early? I really want to get the car in 2016 to claim the federal tax credit this year.

    CPO inventory

    Did anyone notice that number of CPO MS that hit the market last week? I guess it's no surprise given Tesla's announcement. https://ev-cpo.com/ shows about 90 CPO MS hit the market last week. That's a 20% increase in supply. It could be a good time to get a deal on a CPO if you are in the market...
