I don't follow this thread often... but I drove past an install that, for Tesla, is way out of place and a bit over the top today. Salem Oregon is getting quite a bit of love. This site is something new.... location is SE Mission Street. Huge Tesla sign went up -- and that's what's odd...

Thanks for the follow up. I was about ready to hand our '22 X over to the wife tomorrow morning and tell her she received a gift from Tesla. Now, I'm thinking how could that have came across horribly wrong... Will test drive myself after this freezing rain thaws -- then give the good...

Squeaking sounds just started for me just after my 100k warranty was up :-( I'm at 105k miles now Do you have any information on where they applied the grease? Was it the suspension (air) or steering wheel? Any extra information about the recall will be much appreciated. -TechVP

This is exactly my experience as well. Over the 5 years of ownership I have experienced builds where they modify what max following distance. And apparently this is the case again. The release build settled on a nice distance... and now that's out the window and it is operating where the...

Waited for 6 months. Kept nearly perfect 100 the whole time. It was really hard. Wife kept nagging my why I didn’t want to drive in metro areas :-). Received FSD today on my MX 2017. I see another thread popped up talking about the roll out. Best of luck to those waiting. -TechVP

After 6+ months of nearly solid 100 score, having the cameras updated on my 2017 MX within days of their announced requirement, FSD Beta 10.12.2 arrived today. That was a long wait. I hope many more drivers that have been as patient, see FSD arrive to their cars. Especially MX, as my forum...

I was told our 2022 LR Model X was built on 4/28. It does have the swivel screen. If you have a VIN after 341660 then I say your chances are quite favorable. Loving our new X.

Our LR does have the tilting screen. Our SA pointed it out to us.

Of course: VIN 7SAXCDE5XNF341xxx

Taking delivery with my wife today. Ordered 4/11/21. MX LR Perl White 5 Seater. Photos later. New X’s are coming with TILTING FRONT SCREEN! I hadn’t seen if this had been shared or posted, so here you go! Video to follow. Delivered in Portland, OR. Left the factory on April 28th...

Interesting, as I met the owner when they installed them in 2017. They were very pro Tesla. Of course, they prefer the overnight business too. I'm surprised to hear they changed their tune. Wondering if it could have been some of the hired help? On one trip I made in 2019, I tipped...

Been at 100 since late Oct. notification came via the Inbox in the Mobile app. Quick update for everybody: while I can schedule an appt., as I did for this AM, my service center says that they need to order these parts. I confirmed as of this AM, PDX SC doesn’t have the camera upgrade...

Well...well maybe somebody is listening.... Just came in... I hope you all received your invite today or in the very near future. Along with it sends me to this link: Full Self-Driving Computer Installations -TechVP March 2017 AP2 w/ MCU2 and upgraded FSD computer.

Nope, no invite here. Same MX AP 2 config, March 2017 w/ MCU2 ... no camera invite despite a solid 100 score for > 1 month. Tesla: Gimme some cameras, and I'll take a 2500 mile AP road trip to CES January 1! That will give you some data! -TechVP

What I'm curious about is if they add a rear facing cabin cam? I would think the wiring harness is missing; but??. Our cars currently have anonymity to the cabin camera thing.... however will that be changed? -TechVP

It's been 4 years now since the prior post above. I haven't used my ID-5100 too much while driving, but last year around December I made a very important call into a fringe / distant repeater. The QSO lasted a couple hours. The rig and antenna held up fine. No adverse effects to either the X...

Good news. The problem I was having was fixed in Firmware 2021.32.10. Assuming that you are not having a trouble with the driver side manual lockout -- let me know if the problem still exists for you. -TechVP

Somewhere before 2021.24.4 Tesla changed the Window behavior on my X. Really frustrating. While my X is unlocked, I would always be able to put Windows up or down from the driver and passenger Window door buttons. The new behavior locks out ALL windows about 20 seconds after exiting the...

Yes. One left. -Karl

2021.4.11 installed 2/27/21. MX 2017 MCU 2 Minor Fixes, nothing else in release notes.

The question/poll is a really rational one, as we have an 'all quiet' from Tesla on the interior redesign as it concerns the X. Meanwhile plenty of exterior 'previews' from the Model S. Leading statements from prior earning calls like the 'Fabergé Egg' of cars is most all we have to go on...

Completely agree with @2101Guy Definitely DO NOT use the Friends and Family option for merchandise transactions. That's #1 for advise; even if you become coached to do so by any seller. Its nothing specific about the forum, a member, etc. Avoid Friends and Family for any merchandise...

That rocks. You're already ahead. *Jealous*. -TechVP

I completely agree with @wws. As for experience, I'm at 78k miles -- with 2500 of those miles in late Spring pulling a trailer 1/2 way across the US over the Continental Divide to the West Coast. RV parks were definitely an option, (which I fortunately didn't need) and was my Plan C. For my...

Same here, Um, its not cool for a premium vendor to mark their release "Version 2020.48.30 040912887bad" ??? -TechVP

An Accessibly mode will now be necessary for font size. I concur with others. That was an abrupt font change. To note: The Park, Reverse, Drive and Neutral indicators are now on the MX (in my opinion) too small and in a position easily occluded by a slightly turned steering wheel. I’m going...

.... I have the Unwrapping Present screen up, and Cream "Sunshine of your Love" is playing in the X... "I've been waiting so long... to be where I'm going... in the sunshine of your looooooove..." Can't believe I'm in the first few thousands on the Model X to install 2020.48.26... Must be...

On the center console, go to Suspension. It will have lots of numerical settings for suspension-- looking much more complex than non Raven. That's one way. As for FSD: Go to the Software / Service (?) Menu -- there you can also see what all of the build options are and what is installed...

Yes Both pieces are easily replaced. I had a chrome piece come off after 6 mo in a car wash. Turns out the glue to the plastic part that has clips let go. Easily fixed. Could be you're seeing something similar, where the glue to keep both pieces of trim together, let go. For the SC...

The benefit would most likely be part availability. The auto body shops have to wait in the queue for parts... sometimes for months. Tesla may have better access to their own parts... which means faster turn around. Not everybody's SC has a body work option... if you do consider trying...

Not exactly what you are asking for... but if your thief took the next step... there is this: Model X Enhanced Anti-Theft Think parking on SF streets... if a cabin window breaks - or even an arm reaches in when the window(s) are down, the alarm will activate. Mine is quite sensitive...

I had an interesting experience this last weekend with the backup camera. It got covered with 2mm+ of mud. And nowhere else, had the mud dried, except on the backup camera lens. 2017 MX. Could be circumstantial... but is there any reason to think the backup camera ---might--- have a...

I went full tilt and installed 2 (Gen 2) HPWC's, including a 100A Subpanel to support them. Through the communication bus, they intelligently share power with a theoretical maximum draw of approx 80A. Setup passed first inspection. If you were on a budget (and most are, because 2 HPWC...

I helped a referral take delivery in October of her Model X. Same opinion and same situation. Its an electric car... a NEMA 14/50 at home is all but required for reasonable charging speed w/o a HPWC infrastructure. Fortunately for my referral, I was there doing the checklist on her Model...

Hi @bayx Thank you for starting this thread. I read this yesterday eve. And today it happened. More than 4 times, sequentially. In the worst place, and worse time. I tried the near field unlock routine before I left, and boy I'm sure glad. It saved my day. Which was way outside...

Placed a lot of homes and lives at risk. Ashamed this guy behaved this way, in my otherwise very safe town. -TechVP

Still waiting... Monday 7:30pm. -TechVP

Glad you had lots of fun through our area. Fantastic photos. What photo software did you use with your HDR images? -TechVP

Single lane country road (paved -- or not ;-) w/ no lines marked. How well / safely does the beta build take blind corners? Will the vehicle keep, like sticky glue, hugging the right side of the road & not drift where opposing traffic may approach in a blind turn?

Same here. Delivery Wednesday. Hope yours goes well. -TechVP

My X build/delivery date was March 2017. I consumed about 37 months out of my first 12 battery, before the warning appeared. Had to replace it right when I predicted it was due. And bingo, right during the Virus lockdown. For you guys in June and July 2017, stay tuned... it is about...

My sentiments, exactly. There are many nice remixes of Roadhouse Blues. The mix by Crystal Method I always play on long roadtrips driving AP. Worth cranking up on the Tesla Sound system, if you like the remix. Roadhouse Blues (Crystal Method Remix) by The Doors & The Crystal Method -TechVP

Just read about the Baker damage over on the Salem forum. Went out to the car and checked to see of Baker was offline on Tesla's map. My X map shows Baker active with 1 person charging. Hope that's real, and the issue has been repaired. Corrections appreciated. -TechVP

There is one other way in the model X. In the passenger side foot well, there is a fusebox where a 12V tap can be placed. I received the service manual section for it some years back. Although I had already, at the time, done the Power Brake mod for my always ON 12V, I kept this info in case...

i recall a full Xpel wrap on my Model X bring approx $5500. For that price I also had the two front piano black seat backs wrapped, a BlackVue Dashcam and a few other misc things done. A couple years ago, 503 Motoring told me that today’s price would be much higher, and that I got a good deal...

On question #2, I would recommend 503 Motoring in the Tigard Area. They did a full Xpel wrap for me in 2017. And a repair bumper when a deer crossed my path in late 2018. Super job. Keeps their word on scheduling. They are well known with the Tesla body shops. Probably not the lowest...

@GHammer Correct on Alaska. I believe I heard Arkadiy say he put on 70k miles on his service Model S last year. He used to cover Bend as well. Now Bend has their own Mobile Service. He charges to 100% and hits one city / area each day. Very much appreciated his support in Corvallis on...

I have more pics from a stopover Tuesday afternoon if anyone is looking for specific detail. Essentially in the same state as @otter described above. Still waiting for that key transformer. Also, a quick FYI -- did you know there is a Tesla Ranger out of Eugene? I never heard it come up...

Camp mode works for me. -TechVP
