    Mismatched falcon wing door roof glass

    @lowtek First world problem I know, but it just looks so ridiculous when it's obvious. I've considered paying to have the other side replaced, but I'll try to work something out first before deciding. There was no specific reason given for rejecting the service request but after thinking about...

    Mismatched falcon wing door roof glass

    @gnumeric If you're up for it, I'm good with swapping glass. Our original is like the one you have on the driver's side, and that was replaced 1-month ago with a panel that looks like the one on your passenger side. I'd be fine with whatever panel as long as they match. I use the Burlingame SC...

    Mismatched falcon wing door roof glass

    @forkee Thats exactly it--thanks for that! Unfortunately my service center rejected the request to match the glass. Did you have to escalate or anything? On our Model 3 we have the different UV treatment on the top and rear of the roof glass so I'm aware of the changes Tesla made on this. On...

    Mismatched falcon wing door roof glass

    We've been getting a bit of rain the SF Bay Area and I noticed that the recently replaced roof glass ($1,112.75 plus tax--ouch!) on one of the falcon wing doors no longer matches the other side. Original has the orange glow and replacement does not. I think it looks terrible--super disappointed...

    PG&E Rate Schedules: "Home Charging" (EV2-A) Goes Live vs. Others

    What about installing a 2nd meter--one on the EV-B rate plan for EVs and another on a rate plan like ETOU-A/B with less delta in peak/off-peak prices?

    Feedback from BMW or other premium brand converts?

    I've owned a variety of BMWs and Audis since 1996. Lots has been covered in this thread already. My only comment is in regards to EAP, where I strongly disagree with some of the earlier comments. EAP has been the single, most important revelation for me. I've used it on a 3,000 mile road-trip...

    Tesla Changes Service Requirements - 3rd and 4th Year No Longer Needed?

    Does anyone know how refunds for extended service are prorated (elapsed time or actual services performed)?

    Remote control Spotify from Tesla web interface

    Yes that's exactly it. Just Spotify support for now but others in the reddit thread have asked for Apple Music and others. Technically a solution can be made for any service with the appropriate APIs.

    Remote control Spotify from Tesla web interface

    I did a quick search and didn't see this posted. Redditor TesPlayer (Control your favorite music services using the Tesla web browser.) has created a web interface to control Spotify remotely. It's in beta right now and additional functionality is still being added. As an avid Spotify user...

    Missing CarPlay. ;) No issues otherwise.

    A door button that can't be overlooked

    On a whim, I decided to cut a version of kenriko's door buttons in red with the goal of making it more obvious. I'm hoping that it will prevent passengers from using the manual release and make it easier for me to explain how to open the door (press the red button). I used red to match the...

    Vendor Open Source DIY Model 3 Console Wrap Template

    I used the templates with a Cricut Maker. No issues, apart from the overall dimensions on one of the templates being slightly too large as laid for the 12x12 mat (max cutting size of 11.5x11.5). The template for the door sills requires the 12x24 mat.

    Delivery Issues

    Exactly the same experience. I was contacted last Friday, August 31st and scheduled home delivery for Wednesday, September 5th. The evening before delivery, another person called from the 650 area code with the exact same explanation--car is "lost". No further contact or reply to an E-Mail...

    Falcon Door destroys paint

    I spent a few minutes looking at the P100D in the Tesla Burlingame showroom to see if I could spot any running changes. It was one of the newer models with the graphite interior trim. It appears that recent versions now have reshaped sheet metal above the wheel arch to accommodate the rubber...

    AP2 on 2018.10.4 8bbdc66 with Snow, Sleet, and Reduced Road Visibility

    I've been quite critical of AP2 performance compared to AP1 but I feel that this latest update significantly surpasses AP1's capabilities. On Friday, I took a day trip to Lake Tahoe with the family and had my wife record some video while we were on autopilot. I was really impressed by its...

    Uncorked X100D

    Check out the post from KArnold at Any news on 100D uncorking? . With a build date of 07/2017, your vehicle is probably uncorked already. I found the following Youtube video useful to get started with the API:

    Uncorked X100D

    For the 100D, a value of P1 for perf_config does not appear to reflect whether it has been uncorked. My Model X 100D built May 2017 already returns P1 for perf_config but my local SC confirmed that it is eligible for uncorking. Supposedly the check for whether a 100D has been uncorked is a...

    I stand corrected! I've always assumed San Mateo ended at 101 in that area.

    Supercharger - San Mateo, CA - Bridgepointe Pkwy (12 V2 stalls)

    This supercharger is located in Foster City. All the stalls appear to be functional even though it's not listed in navigation and there's construction fencing nearby. I'm charging in stall 2B now.

    Best Bike Rack for Model X

    I just picked up a Kuat Transfer 3 and it seems to be pretty solid option. I didn't want to spend too much since we don't ride that often. It's available as a 2 or 3-bike version and the mounting system does not touch the bike frame. There's no add-on option for additional bikes. The 3-bike...

    Frunk tub removal

    This is a photo of the E-Bay filter from the E-Bay posting. It looks exactly like the filter that I installed. Someone posted an image of the same filter where it appeared to split along one of the horizontal seams. From memory, I think the OEM filter did not have these seams and the folds of...

    HI all, we are one referral away from the solar roof early access token. We just installed solar on our house and will have no use for the token. I'd be happy to transfer it to the next person that uses our referral code.

    Frunk tub removal

    I bought and installed the E-Bay filter a few weeks ago. It's not OEM but looks the part and fit perfectly. There was someone who complained on Reddit or here about their E-Bay filter getting cut by the service center. From the photos they shared, it appeared to me that the filter split along...

    Front window creak over bumps

    "Quality Problem" threads for X seem increasingly rare - no more door issues?

    There was a wealth of information on this forum about Model X quality issues that I never felt the need to post. For the record, my Model X was delivered late May and had a host of issues on delivery including very noticeable alignment issues on the passenger-side FWD, creaking on the...

    Front window creak over bumps

    I mentioned what I thought was a rattle on my driver's side door for my last SC visit and was told that it was normal and because of the frameless windows. The Model X 90D service loaner we had made the same noise. I've had frameless windows on a few BMWs and do not remember this ever being...

    Rework Model X FOB

    I may resort to this as hacking apart my FOB just feels a bit wrong. I'm sure it's a simple change like disabling a couple of TACT switches. I hope the X gets a card FOB option like that shown in some of the Model 3 photos.

    An ICE Driver's Disappointing Reaction

    This. Even without the P, it's easy to place the car where you want at the speed you want. When moving to the left lane to pass traffic with lots of space for the trailing car in the left lane, I've experienced a bit of aggression from the trailing car as they move immediately to the right to...

    Less than $4K for full clear wrap on Model X

    Yes I'm happy with the wrap. However, this is the first time I've had a car fully wrapped and I'll need to see how well the wrapped edges stay put. There was some dirt underneath the edges of one panel that I got taken care of on a scheduled follow-up visit. The film is Suntek PPF-C.

    Rework Model X FOB

    Less than $4K for full clear wrap on Model X

    I went with Invisiguard in San Carlos, which was the $3.8K quote. We had everything wrapped but the tailgate a few weeks ago. The wrapper found a dent in the tailgate that I missed during delivery so I sent it to the service center to get that addressed along with other issues. We just went...

    Less than $4K for full clear wrap on Model X

    I'm posting this for anyone that's looking to get a clear wrap on their car and wanted some guidance on pricing in the SF Bay Area. The quotes I received for a clear full wrap ranged from $3,800 to $6,700 with Suntek or XPEL. With everything I read online, I was expecting it to cost at least...

    Solar Panel Quotes/Buyers Guide

    Fubar'd 17.14.30 Update

    Good catch--I meant 17.24.28 to 17.24.30. I did let the install complete. The mobile app and center console both say that the car is running 17.24.30. Tesla support sees the car reporting 17.24.28. They put in a request to my service center to check the logs on Wed that I'm still waiting on...

    MX 0-60 Increases! (75D and 100D)

    There's not much sleep to loose over this. The difference between the latest and previous Model X 100D is only 0.1 seconds. I'd be a sad cookie if I had gone ahead with my initial 75D order. It would be awesome for Tesla to offer a retrofit. I'd pick up a CPO Model S 75D in a heartbeat over...
