    Firmware 8.1 - Autopilot HW2

    I just spent the last 45 minutes playing with my Tesla after the new update. Autopilot was great during the mild rain during my I-70 test at 70 MPH. Also changed lanes quite well. Summon was exceptional and pulled the car into my very tight garage spot. The lane departure vibration in the...

    17.9.3 AP2 behavior

    I have also had the acceleration issue with the new release but autopilot has been the best I've ever experienced.

    Definitive S Refresh Front Plate Bracket Removal

    I had a vibration issue at the front end after removing the front license plate bracket. Evidently, the two bolts that go below on the bracket help secure the front bumper to the vehicle and stabilize it at high speeds. The service center replace them and the vibration issue dramatically improved.

    6 months in... Charging already going south

    I learned on our recent road trip that you really need to drive for at least an hour at 20f to get the 90kw+ charge rates. We discovered this after only getting 40kw after driving at 55 mph or so for 45 minutes which isn't enough to warm up the pack.

    Autopilot for HW2 rolling out to all HW2 cars today!

    I did the same thing and was then told that I had to pay the additional money for EAP.....I wonder if we will eventually have any additional features?

    Loaner Cars

    I took in my 60D last week and received a P90DL loaner. It was too damn fast for me!

    Remove the Front License Plate

    This worked great for me except I used some snap ring pliers from harbor freight and didn't need a Dremel. The passenger side half of the plate seemed more stuck on and required 5 minutes more or so of hearing to remove.

    Help - Ordered today but didn't get premium package. Is it worth it?

    This is an interesting observation and I feel the same way. Even though I don't keep it on biohazard mode, I have found that I never smell nasty exhaust/diesel while in the model S. I drove my wife's volvo the other day and it was a completely different experience.

    Are these problems only on my Model S?

    My key fob and door handles didn't work on delivery near a large electrical transformer by the SC. They had me move my car to avoid interference and has worked flawlessly ever since without the issues you are describing.

    Is the extended warranty worth it?

    Although this is an expensive repair, I thought it would have been more. I was thinking about the warranty for my new S but the more I read the less I'm inclined to do so. I have been contemplating the maintenance package......there is also a split on that front as well. I have about 40 days...

    Recent Road Trip Experiences

    I totally agree with your range mode sentiment. When we took delivery of our S, the employee recommended always using range mode but after researching the topic and Bjorn's video, I actually had never used it and wasn't sure why I needed to keep it. After our last trip, I think I will only turn...

    Recent Road Trip Experiences

    We just completed our first roadtrip in our 60D we picked up December 16th. I wanted to provide some helpful tips and feedback to other users who are thinking of doing roadtrips during the cold months in the Midwest with limited charging options. Our trip total length each way was 286 miles...

    Help - Ordered today but didn't get premium package. Is it worth it?

    I question whether you noticed the subtle differences when you compared the vehicles. The PUP has REAL leather on the areas that the non-PUP uses a fake-leather material. I compared the vehicles just a few months ago and there is a clear difference. It pushed me to the PUP due to the feel of...

    All weather rear cargo mat 2016 refresh 60D

    I haven't seen them available on the Tesla website for a few weeks. I almost pulled the trigger on the Weathertech mat but couldn't confirm it fits.

    Help - Ordered today but didn't get premium package. Is it worth it?

    I went though the same dilemma when I ordered in October. At the end of the day, I personally could tell the fit and finish on the premium package vs regular and went with premium. I was lucky as I was able to test drive and feel both. The improved "feel" of the interior sold me on it as the pup...
