Me personally, no. Someone in our club, yes. I spoke directly with someone at Tesla as well. What I posted was true at the time of my post, but thank you for reminding me why I stopped coming on this forum.

A club member is reporting that these are displaying in vehicles as “Temporary Closure” but they’re up and running just fine. It’s a faulty antenna sending an incorrect signal back to the mothership.

Sorry but I’m not sure! These were sent to me. It sure does look like it’s going to soundly beat the Q3 estimate on the Tesla site. 😃

Progress as of today.

Had someone confirm with me that this is now live.

Brand new referral prize (silver) arachnids for Model S. I finally got these and was anxious to put them on my wife’s car this summer. But she has opted not to for the range ding (she has a 75D) and also wants to get the MCU upgrade (her car was just a few months too early!!) so, we’re going...

Howdy Brian, I think it would mean some traveling... Tesla’s website has a page on it where you can look for body shops here: Body Shop Support I put in LeClaire and unfortunately every one of them is near Chicago... with the oddity of one in North Carolina which is clearly erroneous!!! You...

2017 S75D. Thank you @brkaus... and sorry, I forgot our car info in my post. Included in this one!

Anyone else having the car do the seatbelt alert chime EVERY TIME you park? Not taking the seatbelt off early at all. I’m stopping, car in park, undo seat belt, then get the alerts even as I’m opening and exiting. Very annoying bug...

EDIT: more info here https://www.teslaquadcities.com/post/tesla-quad-cities-is-growing Forgot to post in this forum that we’ve started a Slack workspace for Tesla Quad Cities! If you’re in the Quad Cities, the surrounding areas (or even the extended surrounding areas... like, out to even Iowa...

Name change secured! Thank you to the TMC team for their swift response! Decided to change up my name here and elsewhere. It’s still same old me though, just a new name. Wanted to post this in case anyone wants to tag me here. Also found out that there is a minimum of 5 characters...

This was the best meetup we’ve had locally so far! FIVE Teslas with 6 people came out to this morning’s Cars and Coffee in LeClaire, IA. We all chatted with each other and with owners of others cars... there were some amazing vehicles there, including a one of a kind Mustang completely...

Cars and Coffee LeClaire, this Saturday. 8am to 11am, 197 Front St, Le Claire, IA. https://www.teslaquadcities.com/events/cars-and-coffee-leclaire-iowa

Sharing some pics from the Davenport Drive Electric Week event. Tesla Quad Cities on Instagram: “Thanks to Paul, the founder of #teslaownersclubiowa for sending me some pictures from the @nationaldriveelectricweek event in…”

OK, not really too close to anything to compare size, but I just happened to finally see a Roadster in person for the first time and wanted to share! Went up to Tesla Westmont Illinois to try and help out for Q3 end deliveries and just lucked into them returning this to the owner after some...

NICE!!! Thank you @midwestLemur for the pic. So awesome to see the Tesla Owners Club Iowa represented so well. I see you, @Silvwarrior , Dan and Paul in the picture. So awesome for you all to get over to Galena. Hope you had a great time. I heard the Davenport event went pretty well too...

This has been the answer every single time for me. Just hold the handle for a bit and the car will unlock and open. I’ve not had this fail yet, and no need to get the phone out, do airplane mode off/on, resets, etc. Just need to give the car a chance. For me, it’s when I head to, or get off...

Very cool! If you do make it up there, you’ll be meeting up with not just @midwestLemur but Paul, the founder of Tesla Owners Club Iowa and my friend Dan (whom you met at Hyvee at the Tesla demo event). Dan is going up tomorrow and staying. Also, THANK YOU for all your support and effort. I...

Have a great time and take some pics if you can!

Had a great time yesterday! Thanks to everyone for coming out! :) Going to post some pics...

Copying this from above as tomorrow is THE DAY!!! I’ll be up at Hy-Vee around noon, likely wearing a black T-shirt with the Tesla Owners Club Iowa logo and driving my white Model 3. Hope to meet some of you there, flag me down and say hello! Come experience a Tesla!!! There is no greater...

Don’t forget that next Thursday, August 22nd, Tesla Westmont will be bringing cars down to the Davenport Supercharger! Hope to see you there! Details in post 83 above. (You can scroll up, or here’s a link!) Quad Cities Iowa/Illinois Also on Instagram: Tesla Quad Cities on Instagram...

Awesome! Now I’m even more bummed about missing lol. Thank you for the info.

Oh wow, that would be very cool...hadn’t thought about those but had heard Metrolink was getting some electric buses. Maybe I’ll reach out to them and see if that’s a possibility. Great suggestion! Edit: it looks like Metrolink came out for Earth Day so hopefully they’ll do that again for the...

It’s looking like I also won’t be able to make it. Whic So happy to have a local event! Going to do all I can to promote it and get people to go, but like yourself I’ll be out of town. Such a bummer :( @Silvwarrior mentioned it the other day in the Quad City thread Quad Cities Iowa/Illinois so...

Well, first off...awesome find and thanks for posting! I’ve added it to the events page of the website already. https://www.teslaquadcities.com/events/national-drive-electric-week-davenport-ia But unfortunately for me I’ll be out of town. I don’t think there’s any way I’ll be able to make...

Safe travels!

Added to the website! Thanks I don’t think I can make it but hope those that do have a great time!

Thanks to @Silvwarrior once again for finding out about this and sharing. Iowa MidAmerican customers can get a $500 rebate for qualifying low emission EVs! See his post below for more details: MidAmerican Energy Iowa $500 rebate

Really enjoyed the Cars and Coffee get together today! Had a blast and will definitely have to do it again. Was great to meet you @midwestLemur :) Here’s an instagram link of pics. Tesla Quad Cities on Instagram: “Great time had at the Cars and Coffee in LeClaire, IA today! Met some awesome...

Take good care of that kitty! We’ll do it again, I’m sure. Looking forward to meeting.

I had the address wrong. It’s 197 Front Street, not 107. It’s by a Riverboat Twilight. @midwestLemur

Quoting the above as a reminder. Tomorrow is the day! Hope to see you there!

DO YOU WANT TO TEST DRIVE A TESLA? There is no greater counter to the fear, uncertainty and doubt that can creep into the minds of someone considering a Tesla than this: EXPERIENCE ONE FOR YOURSELF! For those in the Quad Cities, this typically means a road trip to one of the Tesla locations...

I took this as “want to sell gas” ...which also works really well. Sell gas stock because the end is coming for them!:)

I had a ranger out for some other work and when he saw my mileage he decided to rotate mine for me. Though he didn't charge me, I've heard/found this is not a guarantee ... seems it's really hit and miss. Some people get charged, some don't. I had to buy the "trunk garnish" for my car that...

I’ll be at the Cars and Coffee in LeClaire, IA on July 27th (the even is from 8AM to 11AM). I’d love some company if you are free and want to come hang out!!! More info here: https://www.teslaquadcities.com/events/cars-and-coffee

I’m going to revive this thread again. We have a noise that seems to be coming from the dash area. Seems to be centrally located as I hear it at right when I drive and at left when I’m the passenger. I’ve had the car looked at 2 times now for this, in fact I’m just getting home from my most...

Beautiful!

Thank you! Website building isn't really something I know how to do so I used a site called Wix and had it help me a great deal, lol. Glad it turned out the way it did. :)

@wws @midwestLemur Thank you so much for the kind words!

I am super proud to say that I finally accomplished a very procrastinated goal of mine and got a website posted for the Quad Cities area! https://www.teslaquadcities.com/ My hope is that traffic there will end up checking out/signing up for the linked forum on the site in order to connect with...

Please feel free to ask more questions if you have any. :)

2012 Kia Optima EX. It was a good car for me, I was happy with it. I’m much happier now though! :)

I had an update come while I was at work with my car parked on LTE for the day, if I recall correctly. I've had all the rest come when at home on WiFi.

Yes it does. They have "chill mode" which will reduce the ability to make the car go super fast, super quick. Here is an image of the menu showing the ability to select chill mode. EDIT: Also is a beautiful color of paint on Model 3, but I'm biased! :)

Want to post about an upcoming event in Decorah, Iowa on Saturday, June 8th that was sent to me by Tesla Owners Club Iowa founder, Paul Julstrom. The second annual FEST(EV)AL will take place at the Winneshiek County Fairgrounds - Danan Lansing Building from 9am to 1pm. Fest(EV)al 2019 –...

Had a chance to meet up with Paul from Tesla Owners Club Iowa on Friday (5/17) at the Davenport Supercharger! Also had @2012MS85 and my buddy Dan (Model 3 owner) join us, which was awesome. We had a good, short meet up where we talked about ideas for the club and just enjoyed the time. I’m...
