Strange as to what might have changed. In 2020 I took a trip to Wausau, WI and it was -24F overnight and -10s throughout the day. I left my car cold soaked and was able to supercharge it no problems back then.

I’ve .3 with FSD and nothing outstanding other than the low fidelity parking blobs. Oh and the wipers work a bit better now.

It's like saying "why do people care about how their house looks from the outside? It's not like you can see the house when you're living in it"

Update to my issue, took the car to the SC on Friday 17th, and explained the slight knocking sound to the tech, took him for a ride and said he could hear it. 8 hours later, they said the vibration reduction TSB is not necessary in my car (2023.32 FSD), and they did some "body adjustments" per...

So I have an appointment on Nov 17th to fix this vibration/knocking issue from the driver's left front through a software update. I wrote on the service ticket as much details as I could, and that's what they said. Mine happens with my stock wheels and summers, and it's like a knocking sound...

Misha is a complete madman driving on the Ring lol

You need a voltmeter tapped into the top red/blue wire, close/open the door and see if you rear 12V. It's switched, or it should be only active when the car is on.

Side shot

I’ve got 21” Turbines as my winter set with snow tires and needed spacers on my 23 MSP. I did Bonoss 20mm front and 25mm rear and fits good.

In my 2020, it was $230 with the fob included from the dealer, this was in 2022.

Got 32.4 today, and after a bunch of miles, one of the annoying things is the car activates the blinkers unnecessarily. Driving slow in the right lane in FSD, sometimes it thinks it wants to do a lane change and it triggers the signal to the right. stops and signals again and hesitates lol...

I wasn’t hopeful it’d come within hours but glad it did. I was a prior sub on my HW3 Ms, but don’t know if that has anything to do with it.

Couple days ago I subbed to FSD and got 11.4.4 on my HW4 Plaid. Vast improvement I’d say. With regular EAP I kept getting alerts at night about blinded pillar cameras with nothing blinding them from the sides or behind. Now seems those issues are fixed once upgraded.

Just remember the Plaids were selling over sticker used in 2021 and some were paying $140-150 for them. Used.

Subscribed to FSD and got the 26.11 update in a few hours. Working pretty good so far.

Negative on 4.23.2-1815

Question: Do you use hand sanitizer on a frequent basis? Curious to see and find a pattern on this.

Think 2022, based on this article: Tesla stops Model S production line to add Matrix LED headlights and new taillights

Yep takes 10-15 minutes on the refreshed S. Easier than prior models since the three star shaped bolts are on the front (was underneath the bumper which made it trickier before). With some fishing line, and a heat gun, you can soften the double sided tape that holds the plate holder to the...

Any plans on showing supercharging stats separately from L2 charging?

2023 MSP build date 5/23, HW4 perfect so far. One tiny paint glob in a corner and one little light scuff ion the front left fender. Yoke and beige interior, EAP, no FSD. Interior was perfect, zero flaws.

Don't know yet, as I haven't seen incoming drivers flicking the high beams yet.

Forgot about that. MASSIVE improvement from the prior gen, but those were incredibly bad headlights to begin with. Compared to Porsche's PDLS (I had a '17 Carrera S and a GT3) the new headlights are really, really good. Shaper cutoff and better lighting pattern throughout.

Tesla handles software updates better than Porsche for sure, which is the core of EVs.

Been changing tires for the last 3-4 years on this car, and the jack pads definitely help, as they have a nubby that fits in the jacking pads, and this way you don't risk jacking from the wrong points. The HF aluminum race jack posted above works wonders as well.

What I learn about threads like this is that if I follow “the majority” (which supposedly hates the yoke) without forming my own opinion and trying it myself, I’d be wrong.

I’m gonna be a contrarian here, supposedly being in the minority that likes the yoke. I think and this is just my personal opinion and I’m not a pundit to say or defend my choice, but I think stalk removal and the simplification with the yoke and executing it through the touch screen works for...

I have a '23 MSPlaid with EAP and HW4 and it doesn't have park assist yet (as I expected when taking delivery), coming "in two weeks" lol

Can you post the video? That way we can see what happened.

Had it since mid 2020 and has the latest firmware from Dec 2022

I don’t know but my car has HW4 with different front camera, definitely something has changed. I tried two different mirror taps and no luck. Works fine powered through the 12V in the console. Worked perfect on my 2020.

So just went through this thread and the videos above. On a ‘23 model S plaid you can’t mirror tap from the connectors indicated on a Valentine V1gen2. You get it power up but after a few seconds an e-fuse kicks in a shuts the detector and keeps power cycling. Seems like not enough power...

The foam insulation is inside the tire itself. https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/michelin-now-has-pilot-sport-4s-in-245-35-21-with-acoustic-foam.150053/

Some customers want the traditional dealer treatment: nice showrooms with salesmen that explain every feature, but I felt that the demographic that Tesla aims to, in my perception, is the one that has heavily researched the car and have their mind made up on buying one (and don't really push a...

On an identical setup as yours I see 36-37mph charge as stated. The 3/Y I believe can do faster than that.

One of my main complaints of FSD Beta when I had it (paid $6k in 2019 for it), was that I had the impression that the car doesn't look as far ahead as it should. Coming to a stop a few hundred feet ahead, as a human I would let off the throttle a bit and let it coast to a stop, but FSD tends to...

Took delivery of this solid black MSP a few days early, service center had the car ready. Pretty awesome, so many improvements from my 2020. Headlights, cameras, and the interior. Very happy with the delivery as well.

Same as y’all. Approved initially for 5.59 then updated to 3.99% over a day or so with WF Auto. Now I’m hoping for the 3 year supercharging.

I just sold my 2020 MSP to Carmax with FSD for $57K, I frankly didn't want to deal selling private. This was greater than the measly $44-47K that Tesla offered, or the $48K Carvana offer.

I saw a disabled EQS on the side of the road by me and there’s very few out there still. In contrast 3/10 cars are Teslas and haven’t seen one in distress yet

I have my 2023 Plaid (black / beige) on order since yesterday. All it took for me was to sit on the new interior and I was sold for how good it felt. Can't wait!

I’ve been using 21” no problem (Sottozero 3s) for the last 3 years. It’s mostly about fitment concerns rather than driveability

Bump, no one has a square 21" winter setup?

Thinking about getting into a ‘23 Plaid and have a square set with 21” Turbines with winters, 245/35-21, would it be fine for winter time reusing this set?

Had the same issue in mine a year ago, it's a relatively cheap fix replacing that coolant valve (it's by the passenger front, underneath the trunk.

Nice, glad to hear things worked. Mine has had zero issues for a couple of years.

Not operational yet, went by to check myself.

Seems like they removed the tape, maybe it's open?

Thanks for this review. I'm debating a Taycan Turbo S to replace my MSP in a few years. We'll see.

Put the latest firmware on it just in case (21.36.6 here: Troubleshooting a Gen 3 Wall Connector).
