One of the first MX owners here in the UK. Clocked over 60k miles charged at Superchargers - the steering wheel locking has always been the case. The only time the steering disengages whilst charging is if you are playing games on the Tesla that uses steering wheel as input. Rumour has it that...

Thanks for this tip! I'm debating whether or not to go down the MCU2 route - we are thinking of trading it in and going for two Model 3s. I have heard that a fair few people kick themselves for not doing it sooner! Cheers! Hello haha! I'm based in the UK here, from what I understand...

Hi Scott, Thanks for the reply - apologies I should have stated I'm based in the UK. When I put my VIN in, no TSBs show despite there being some. Thanks though! 🙂

Thanks for the comments. Whilst I agree on the premise of paying for MCU 2 for the performance gain, and will likely do so in the near future, I'm more intrigued to see if the fact the FSD upgrade has made the MCU 1 worse for anyone else as it has done so for me. 🙂 Thanks for the comments...

Hi all. It just dawned on me, after perusing this forums, that I've never seen a list of all Tesla Service Bulletins despite many forum members chatting about them and some even providing PDFs. Is there a list of all these TSBs somewhere? Just curious to see. Cheers, T

Tesla wave used to be a huge thing, I've been an MX owner from 2017 and sadly the wave has declined seemingly as the car sales increase. I remember when I used to pull up in Oxford supercharger and people would come over and chat - if another Tesla owner pulled up you'd wave a chat until the...

Hi all. I just wanted to touch base with other Model X owners out there. I own a Model X 90D 2017 (by one day!) and two months back I had the MCU 1 fail on me due to the eMMC chip failure - this was replaced and everything was fine. Fast forward to two weeks ago and I had the FSD computer...

I can confirm - and have confirmed with Tesla London, MCU 1 has a capped software numbering of 2020.xxx. MCU 2 will then see the cap being lifted. This cap on MCU 1 doesn't restrict the software OR implies that it is no longer supported. It's just a numbering system on Tesla's end.

It’s the MCU which causes the lack of ability to record videos. Supposedly footage is transmitted to Tesla on which you can request it. I can’t confirm this. MCU upgrade enables the full fledged ability of Sentry Mode that most newer Tesla’s have today.

Hey all. My MX Jan ‘17 is in the Service Centre and it just downloaded and installed the latest update available. 2019.8.5 Does anyone know what this update actually entails? I’m intrigued.

Had a long old chat with a software engineer in the states last week. He confirmed that being on a trusted (he may have meant secure?) strong WiFi network and charging/high SoC usually results in downloading the newest three updates if coming from a 2018 build. I.e 2019.8.3 then 8.4 then 8.5...

Hey Jamie. My Model X is in the Service Centre and over the course of three days it’s gone from 2018.4.5 (I believe) to the most current 2019.8.5 - connecting to a strong WiFi overnight tends to download the update and then you can install from the dash or mobile app.

Evening all, Just a quick question before I call into the Service Centre tomorrow; I own a Model X and I feel the wipers need replacing (I have cleaned them but still smearing!). Is it possible to replace these yourself, despite what the manual says, and if so can you find them available online...

Yeah, that's the impression I was under but thought I'd confirm. Thanks for you input! ;) 85,000 miles. £95,000. In the UK you might only find one or two for sale per month. Note: I've contacted the woman, and there's scuffs and dings everywhere... sounds like she is selling on behalf of...

Hey guys, A friend of mine is buying a MX after I said I was getting one and he found a used one online, he's spoken to the lady selling but he said she seems a bit clueless. She's asking well above market price for it too. She told him it has AP1. It's a 2017 Registration (Jan). Surely it's...

HEY, Just a quick question; do you pay (or can I reclaim) the VAT on demo/service models on offer in the new inventory section of the website? (Buying via my business). Thanks, Thom.

Hi John! Thank you! I’m dead chuffed that the MX price drop has happened. Yeah I totally knew supercharging would have to be on the books. I would prefer three short duration charges rather than sit-and-wait charging as I love driving! I feel as if I’ll love driving even more with the MX...

Hey all, Just had a message from a friend saying MX price had dropped in the UK, putting all the new inventory stock 90D’s to bed for me... now I’m back to square one and looking at getting the 75D straight from Tesla (the reason why is simply because it’s more affordable, and I’d prefer to...

Thank you everyone, sorry about the late reply - couldn't log in!

Hey guys, Long time stalker first time poster in a while on these forums. So I've been having a look at getting a Tesla, my friend is selling two (he owns a car leasing company) one is a P85D 2014 pre-facelift and the other is a Model X 60KWH. Now, this is kind'a a two part question: 1. I...

Thanks for that! Would you say the 60 was worth it?

Thanks very much Derek, well worth getting I'd say..

Hey all, Just a quick question. There's a stellar deal on this 60D near me. £55k after I claim VAT back. One quick question, 200 miles is pretty naff rated range (wondering what the actual range is?) is the battery in this MX and software limited 75? If so, can it be upgraded via software...

Cheers guys! I drive a lot of miles per week, long trips (in the UK). The 100D is obviously the best choice. I've had a look at actual range on here and it seems to be a solid 220-250 average at 90% charge circa. April 2016. - Has this got better since then (ie. has Tesla refined the...

PS. Are you a MX owner by any chance? I do have a couple more questions.

Thanks Bert, really appreciate the reply. Time to buy a new Tesla!

Hey all, Long time stalker of the forums, first-time poster. I'm looking at buying a Model X. I love them. My friend is selling one and is willing to sell me his at a decent price, but I definitely need the third row (two seats) at the back and his only has second row (three seats). Is there...
