    What drives AP1 "Hold Steering Wheel" prompt timeframes?

    I rest my left hand at the bottom of the steering wheel and rarely get prompts to hold the wheel. I have 2014 P85D AP1. I don't think there are sensors on the wheel itself. I believe it's a torque sensing mechanism for the entire wheel.

    How did someone unplug me (Tesla plug)?

    If my charge was going to complete at 3am, I'd try and wake up as early as possible 5 or 6am) to give someone else the opportunity to charge. I've been on the other end too many times where I've arrived at a destination charging location only to find that the car charging has been there for the...

    21" Aftermarket Turbine Wheels. Any good?

    I like the black. It does go well with the tint. I'm sure they do awesome work, but $250 is a bit more than I was budgeting for the color change.

    21" Aftermarket Turbine Wheels. Any good?

    I was considering that. Figured it would be somewhere in the $500-700 range. Good to know on the caps...I thought they'd be more expensive than that.

    Brake pedal play / rattle when lifting off pedal...

    My 2014 P85D does the same thing. A rather loud "clunk" sound when lifting my foot off the brake pedal. l'll write my local SC adviser an email and see what they have to say.

    Bought 4 New Tires from Tesla, 4 alignments later...still not right

    Last time I got my Tesla aligned at the service center I had to ask for the printout for the work done. I agree, it should be standard practice.

    Main (middle) screen shut down during a charging session!

    3 months of ownership and 11,XXX miles, the only thing I've experienced is the media wouldn't play...couldn't get the radio/slacker to play at all. As soon as I put it in park, it starting playing normally. Screen has been rock solid for me.

    Has your car shut down before it hits zero?

    I've driven coast to coast in my P85D and I've become comfortable reaching the super chargers with 5-10% left in the battery. I've found (at least with my car) that the Tesla range estimator is a bit conservative. That's a good thing though in my opinion. Bjorn (sp?) the youtuber did a video...

    Terrible quality Tesla Model S 90d - Finland

    Unfortunately it's hit or miss with Tesla. The quality is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're going to get. For the most part, my 2014 P85D has been pretty decent. Fit and finish has been on par if not better than most cars I've owned.

    DEMOLISHED old EV Cannonball Coast to Coast record in Model S 85D!

    Nice job! Not trying to be a "one upper", but I did Fayetteville North Carolina to Phoenix Arizona in about 48 hours. That included a four hour stop to change out the 12 V battery at a Tesla service center. The rest of the trip was only stopping to charge. It's amazing how far you can go...

    Panoramic Roof Shudder?

    Mine was shuddering quite a bit and even ripped up the rubber gasket around the sunroof. Took it into the service center and they are going to replace the entire sunroof. I have a Dec 2014 S and apparently there's a newer version. Just waiting for parts now.

    How hard is it to install NEMA 14-50 by myself?

    I wish I had some tips on fishing 6 gauge wire. That stuff was hard to work with. I couldn't imagine working with 2 gauge for a 100amp set up.

    How hard is it to install NEMA 14-50 by myself?

    Here are some photos from my DIY install. I've done lite electrical work in the past like ceiling fans and light switches, but nothing with this many volts/amps. I just did my research and was very careful. id say if you are handy and careful, it's not hard. Just triple and quadruple check that...

    Where are best places to charge between El Paso, TX and Casa Grande, AZ?

    I've used the chargers at Kohls before. I want to say I was only getting between 16-18mph. The Embassy Suites off of Skyline is great if you have twin chargers. I was getting 48mph the last time was there.

    Where are best places to charge between El Paso, TX and Casa Grande, AZ?

    I was looking at that the other day and saw that it would take some careful planning. I have a house in Tucson that I would start at 100%. Then charge in Lordsburg on a 14-50'outlet for 8 hours at the campground. Then off to El Paso. Tesla is supposed to have Superchargers along that route by...
