My 100% is 222. X75D delivered December 2016. I always thought this was a terrible 90%, but I see that I'm within a few rated miles of most. SC has given various explanations, including a change of algorithms to be closer to real range, but that always seemed unsatisfactory. Rated range should...

Thanks for the suggestions!

Has anyone used Firestone or PepBoys to install new tires? How about alignment? I'm in OC, so if anyone has location-dependent advice, that would also be useful. Thanks. BTW, I think I'm going with the Pirelli Scorpion Zero All-Seasons.

Irvine was first listed as a "target opening" in 2017. Now, clearly, it won't make the 2018 target. If you look at the map, Tustin, Irvine and Mission Viejo all have projected supercharger locations. The whole area has seen a major conversion to Teslas, but the need to show a profit means that...

I had the same response when I brought in my 12/2016 MX75D with a 100% around 220 miles. The SC said that algorithm changes had adapted to my driving habits and that there was no issue with the battery modules. I'm not sure why my driving habits would trigger it. I have a low lifetime wh/mile...

I had Costa Mesa SC keep both fobs in the car, which they said was the cause of the car losing ~20 miles per day range. For at least 24 hours, it was at lower than 10%, reaching 2 miles before they decided to charge it. (I brought it in on the 23rd of December and, on the 25th, the shop was...

That's what worries me...

No, I supercharge, but typically once every two weeks. Most charging is done at home on an L2 charger.

After having a 220 mile rated range on my X75D after a 100% charge (from discharging to <5%), I took my car into the SC. I had had an issue the previous Christmas when the SC left my car on <5% for an extended period of time (to ~2 miles range), but they have now twice confirmed that there I...

I was seeing around 9.3% loss from a 100% of 237 (MX 75D, December 2016, 14,500 miles) to, after a deep discharge and full charge to 100%, 220 miles(!). I noticed a significant drop in range after the SC left it at <10% for two days during its annual service last year, dropping it to near-zero...

Lots of good location speculation, but does anyone think that there will be a Supercharger by the end of 2018? Still no evidence of an Irvine location as the M3s ramp up their volume.

Costa Mesa has an SC near the delivery center. I suspect that there is an influx of Model 3 delivery issues that combine with the general growth of Teslas in SoCal. They're using Lyft to get me around, because there were no loaners available in the morning. Prior to this I always had a loaner...

Here I am waiting 90 minutes for a loaner. Monday afternoon in Costa Mesa. I know we're in TeslaLand here, but none of the three people ahead of me have been offered a loaner. You should see the place, though. It's swamped. What's your experience?

Last time, my 75D (December 2016), ~10K miles, was at 205 miles, which seemed like it had dropped a lot from 213 initially. However, the SC had let the battery sit close to zero (2 miles range on pickup after 48 hours from 50 miles). I'm wondering whether long-term sitting at <10% was a factor...

I had a rear tire in front. Perhaps they simply were unable to correctly replace the tires, but it sure sounds like they were rotating them. Yep, epic fail. And then they forgot to realign the wheels when they put them on correctly.

So, I had my tires rotated on my one-year-old MX 75D as part of my first-year service. When I brought it back in (metallic scraping sound on turning the wheels), the SC unrotated the tires, but failed to realign them. So I brought it back in again. Third time's a charm. Anyone else had this...

I have a December 2016 Model X with a squeaky window that took four trips to the SC to get it down to the point where I will probably live with it. What they did this last time was to repair (replace???) the chrome to address specific spots that were causing the squeak as it rolls up. Now, I...

Tomorrow, I go to my one-year appointment to plunk down $625 to keep my X running. But it gives me a reason to reflect on the past year, given all the discussion. Am I still in love? With my wife, yes. Also with my AP2 75D Model X, although not as much. Here are my categories for this decision...

I left mine at 60%, plugged in, and set it to 50% to recharge. I'm not sure why I didn't just set it to 50% originally. That seems to be the sweet spot. Anyway, I left it for 22 days and all is well.

Reset Homelink (garage door learn button -> remote control in the frunk when prompted -> bingo, works again). Next day, nothing. So our Plan B is to keep an old garage door remote control in the car. Not elegant.

17.34 and it stopped working. Same issue as reported by others, however, I won't go through the hassle of reprogramming the car until it's widely reported that 17.3x has fixed the issue.

Charged today in the morning before rush. Switched from one stall (52kw/h charging) to another (2A) and was charging at 48kw/h. Both started at 90-94kwh and within a few minutes were down to ~50 kwh. While there are more gripes around EAP/FSD, the supercharger speeds will utlimately be a deal...

The SC replaced my front seats because of the wrinkling. Total of ten weeks to get them replaced (six for original order + four more when the wrong part arrived), but it wasn't like the X wasn't functional in the meantime. The new seats seem of higher quality both from the standpoint of...

Yeah, it's the last weekend in June ("next month") and "silky smooth" seems to be only rolled out to a small handful of AP2 autos, perhaps those that are brand new or have had service. Radio silence from Tesla.

I was charging at the San Juan Capistrano supercharger one day and a Tesla Solar City employee was there. He said that anyone who is close to break-even on their electric bills with solar panels will do better with TOU-D-A than TOU-D-B, even though SCE promotes this as popular with net energy...

Tesla's recent Supercharger announcement obliterates the old ethical discussion of local/trip charging. Tesla understands that cheap/free ubiquitous charging infrastructure tied to their autos/trucks/etc... will be a competitive advantage that will be hard for another individual automaker to...

Other than a possible #aprilfools easter egg, I can't see any difference in the release notes between 17.11.3 and 17.11.10. Anyone?

New update- post 17.11.3? I had already installed the big, new update and here comes another one. Downloading now...

Thanks for your advice @DJung. Finally, I took the car in. All the staff were attentive and helpful. They found the part I needed in current inventory and scheduled an appointment to get the repair, as well as taking care of a number of small issues. They had my email in the system and I was...

I must be doing something wrong. Costa Mesa SC has returned a phone call just once, no replies to two emails, etc. Should I just go on rather than try to book an appointment? I'm waiting since early January on a minor repair. I love driving the car, so I'm trying to take deep breaths.

No, I'm waiting for 17.5.36 to allow this, at least at 35mph. I know, really slow for Irvine's 50mph streets.

I don't think you can launch the update from the app. I was in the first 1000 to get the AP2 update on New year's Eve, but I'm still waiting for 17.5.36 (still on 17.5.28).

Yes, but half of it is because I charge for longer than they say, just in case. I'd say they were only off by about 5 minutes typically, but I had a different itinerary in mind in order to avoid Burbank, so then I had to charge up to 80-90%.

In my month-old 75D Model X, I finally took the family on a roadtrip, using many of California's superchargers in the process, playing with the current features of Autopilot and Autosteer in the process. Here is a summary of my observations: 1. Supercharger anxiety. This is different from range...

I downloaded today's update to AP2. We'll see how autosteer works. @nhartwell's experience was the same as I had, with lots of small adjustments instead of a smooth path down the middle of the lane. My dashboard says "some driver assistance features unavailable," (still). The SC in Burbank said...

I'm doing the December 2016 software update right now, 90 minutes before 2017.

According to my DS, our 75D is scheduled to be in SoCal 12/22 with a 12/26 delivery date scheduled. However, the website and emails are seemingly detached from each other. On the website, it says December-early January delivery with the car in production since 12/9 and the emails skipped over...
