    21+ refresh regen 'moan' when wheel turned

    My '21 refresh is getting a strange 'moaning' sound when off the throttle, slowing and the steering wheel is turned. Doesn't happen when the wheel is straight and seems to only happen during regen. Almost sounds like a worn bearing. Going to setup a service appointment but would like to get some...

    Anyone have chassis flex on '21+ refresh?

    Just picked up a 30k mile Plaid and when pulling into driveways/uneven surfaces the interior noise is pretty bad. Sounds like surfaces just shifting around, mainly squeaking/creaking, like the car is starting to twist. Hoping it's just a seat bracket not tightened or something simple. Suspension...

    New Michelin 295/30/ZR21 for sale

    I may have Michelin rear tires for a refresh S with 21s for sale. Tires are brand new and just looking to pay what they may be costing me. Long story- Bought a new to me Plaid at a dealer in Houston. When I went to pick it up, driver's rear was low on air pressure. Thought for sure it was the...

    Supercharging past 100%, Tesla says normal

    First off, I know 100% charging is frowned upon. That being said, my P100D range when 'full' is around 275 when I charge at home and stops charging when it gets there. At a supercharger when I reach 100% the car is still pulling 18 kW and that slowly drops to 1-2 over the next hour. Estimated...

    What's New- New Threads

    I know the forum has been through a few upgrades/changes but I was wondering if there was a way to bring back the 'New threads' search function? It was under the 'What's new' tab a few versions ago but has disappeared. Currently clicking 'What's new' or 'New posts' brings up new posts which can...

    Any experience with car shows?

    I really want to put my Model S into a car show in a few weeks. I live in a mid-sized (Texas) town and I am sure there will be quite a few old school hot rods there, a few newer sports cars and a handful of classics. I kinda want to do it to answer questions and maybe help dispel some myths...

    New S Plaid HP/trap/technical discussion

    I know not everyone is concerned with performance but this thread is for those who are! I am really scratching my head over the trap speed (155) and trying to break the numbers down in my head. I thought peak power happens on a P100D around 45 MPH, and that it was limited to battery output. I...

    What kind of balancing is this??

    Backstory- New to me 2017 Model S with 100kW battery. Picked up in June. Recently had a 240V installed and had the time to fully charge and attempt to balance the pack. I've done what I feel like is tons of research to not have to ask these questions, but... apparently not enough so here I...

    Used FSD delivery getting delayed due to HW3 install?

    I am extremely excited about getting my first Tesla but my delivery date has been pushed back at least twice already due to being 'lucky' and getting the HW3 FSD computer. Purchased a 2017 with FSD in early May and was ready to take delivery last Thursday, but got a call early Wed. telling me...

    Finally happening! Question about MVPA

    So I pulled the trigger on a used Model S P100D.. WOOHOO!! Even though it is used it is coming exactly like I'd option it. ( I hope..) The car I am purchasing comes with FSD, free supercharging and UHFS, however, none of that is listed on the MVPA. I'm just curious, isn't the purchase agreement...

    Texas Direct Auto in Houston

    Texas may have voted down new Tesla sales in the state but you can't stop used sales I guess..... Texas Direct Auto in Stafford (Houston) currently has 23 MSs and MXs for sale, as new as 2017 and as little as 368 miles.... Might be a good place to go look and actually see the color you are...

    Buyer Beware... Used Texas car lot selling NJ lemons?

    So in my search for a new (to me) Model S I have come across a few good prices from a Texas used car dealer that caught my eye. 20k miles P85Ds, one listed for 69k, the other for 72. A 90X that was priced crazy that is no longer listed and now a 2015 MS60 for 49k. I requested the VIN for the...
