I haven’t bought any wheels actually, I still have the original tempest 19 inch wheels on my MS22LR.

I had a similar issue with my July ‘22 build MSLR. A 2nd unlatch press while gently pulling up on the frunk hood allowed it to open. The service center took a look and said that the latch parts were “offset” so they moved the the top and/or bottom pieces to align them and it works fine now.

Thanks, both replies are very helpful.

My tow eye cover is missing. Not sure how it came off, but it's definitely gone. My only way to contact Tesla Service is to use the Service module in the phone app, and request an appointment to bring the car into Tesla. I live closest to the Palo Alto, CA service center and they NEVER pick...

I had this error appear a few days after delivery. On the first trip to the service center, they replaced a wiring harness on the front right strut. The error came back later the same day I picked up the car. On the second visit, they said the connector came loose and reconnected it. A few...

Yes, it’s Elon’s world and we’re just living in it, with hope. 🤗

My 2017 S75 had a high pitched whine from the front section as well but it was very feint and it never occurred to me to get it serviced- I assumed it was the coolant pump. My ‘22 MSLR has the high pitched whine but it is louder, although I wouldn’t say it’s too bothersome. It would be nice...

They found the connector to the wiring harness that has been replaced on the front right strut a few weeks ago wasn’t connected. They simply connected it securely this time, and it worked fine. I haven’t been able to verify, haven’t been in town to pick up my car yet.

My MSLR ‘22 went in again today for this. Has anyone had a successful repair completed for this issue?

Ok, I poked around and found the seams between the bottom and top pieces. Mine are relatively tight but I can see how those will separate over time. Maybe they should be taped for a short term fix, but Tesla’s going to need to develop a better solution. What a crappy design like it was an...

This is my second model s, and 3rd EV

I don’t have two pieces, it’s one piece and it doesn’t move up and down much.

I’m not clear what two pieces you are referring to. Here is a photo of the upper side of the shroud if it helps.

The tape is on the underside of the housing so you can’t see it unless your head is in the footwell.

At first I didn’t think the audio quality was so good, but after a couple weeks it started to sound very good to me. I’m wondering if there is a break-in time for the speakers.

They put 4 strips of some kind of fabric tape on the underside of the housing that is behind the display. Looks cheap and temporary but it is doing the job of stopping the rattles for now.

I had mine serviced 2 weeks ago. On the way home from the dealer, the error came back. It goes back to service in the 23rd. They found a faulty connection and replaced a wiring harness to the right front strut. I suspect it’s the ECU- there is data from any of the four struts, looks...

I haven't inspected it, but the invoice says they found the gap trim was rattling against the bracket, and they insulated the trim piece. I can take a look tomorrow during day light and let you know what I see.

My new '22 MSLR was shipped with the PZero summer performance tires from the factory. They have the "elect" and "pncs" logos on them. They fronts are 255/45 R19 104y (and the rears are 285/40s) On my prior 2017 MS75, I had the factory goodyear eagles, which handled well, but were very...

After seeing the state of the delivery center area at the factory in Fremont when I went to pick up my car at the end of July, I got the impression that Tesla is really struggling to keep up with incredible demand for it's cars. The sheer number of cars being staged for pick up and transport...

Has anyone noticed a sound quality benefit to Tidal vs Spotify in the Model S apps?

I noticed the same front and also left bias, and have the fader target moved rear/right. I agree the low level listening needs loudness. My equalizer takes treble frequencies down, it was drowning out mids and bass. These adjustments help, but I don’t find the overall presence and sound stage...

Did you have it serviced, what was the fix on the adaptive ride control? New ECU?

I wish I could provide the measurements but my MSLR that was delivered on July 31 this year has a broken adaptive ride system. A few days after delivery I got an error message saying “adaptive ride control disabled, drive with caution” and all the sensors are reading zero for all 4 struts.

Ok, cool, thanks. That explains it. (Of course I didn't even know they included the mobile charger because my frunk didn't open... took me a few days to figure out I could open it by pulling up on the hood while the latch was popped to clear the second latch that was caught)

My MSLR that was delivered 10 days ago came with a mobile charger and also with a 128GB Tesla USB stick inserted into the globe box USB port. I thought that Tesla no longer included the mobile charger with the model S (?), and I have no idea whether they include a USB stick with new cars...

Mee too! Took delivery of a new Model S LR just 8 days ago, and this issue came up today. I added it to my service appt so they can fix this while they get my non-working frunk open, close a 3/8 ths inch gap between body panels under the hatch, fix some bad rattles in the console and fix a gap...

My MS LR was ready later than planned yesterday. Tesla changed the time five times in the prior 36 hours, including the last time when I was already half way to the delivery center in an uber. I went to the center anyway to see if I could sort out a better delivery timeframe. The lesson is to...

I got my VIN on Monday for a MS LR. My EDD is 7/20-7/29. I’m excited to take delivery. I live 15 miles from the Fremont factory. Is there a typical number of days to build and deliver from the date the VIN is assigned or is the timing unpredictable?

Photos like this are making me think I may not "need" to upgrade my factory Tempest wheels for appearance purposes. Without the wheel covers and with the center cap, these look very good. Where did you find the center cap and lug nut caps?

I ran across these rims. I am taking deliver in 2 weeks on a Model S 2022 LR. I really like the look of the Tesla provided arachnid 21" rims, but I didn't want low profile rims/tires for practicality reasons. I reluctantly ordered the 19" tempest wheels. These Replika's look like a good...

Thanks, the 19" are lighter for sure. T-Sportline claims their 19" TSS tires can accommodate the original OEM tires which are 255s on the front and 285s on teh back, and the were originally meant for 9.5" rims on the front and 10.5" rims on the back, but the T-Sportline TSS rims are 9.5"...

Thanks, I am leaning towards the T-Sportline TSS wheels which are 10x20 inch. Those seem like the "just right" option. It appears the 10x20s are close enough to the original wheel and tire dimensions and allow a square set-up for rotation. But I am a newbie on modified offsets, diameters...

Thanks. I’m still not sure about changing from a staggered set up (9.5 and 10.5) to a square set-up from a driving and appearance standpoint. Also also it seems in the 19 inch option that the rear original tires wont fit the new wheels properly! T-sportline seems to suggesting that it’s ok...

As much as I like the looks of the Arachnid 21" wheels, I've had staggered low profile sport wheels/tires on other cars in the past and regretted it due to rim damage on potholes, curb rash, uneven tire wear (esp on the rear tires.) So, I ordered the '19 Tempest wheels for my 2022 LR (not...

Note the gear shifter on the corvair located on the dash. I think this idea died long ago until kind of resurrected by Tesla. Corvair Powerglide - Wikipedia

And can I assume that the way the system guesses whether you want to go forward or backward isn’t smart enough to handle k turns, parallel parking and getting out of tight spaces? Also, do you need FSD to get the guessing feature?

Thanks, that’s good to know. Do you prefer shifting on the touch screen or on the console ?

One issue I have with my ‘17 S75 is the way that safety systems and controls are dependent on the MCU. When my MCU crashes, I don’t get cameras, directionals, shift indicator, lane departure warnings, collision warnings, speed indicator etc…. Which are all items that matter for safe driving...

I thought sentry mode and dashcam would be interesting to use as well, but I had problems with the USB stick- I kept getting "invalid USB" or something like that even though I was using an approved USB stick, and after one my attempt to fix the MCU they suggested I not use it because it could...

I had my MCU1 upgraded for $2K to MCU in April 2021 because my MCU1 EMCC was a disaster and was slow and crashed regularly- I couldn't wait for the replacement component. A few months after the upgrade, I started have regular crashes of the center screen and the instrument screen. They...

I couldn't find the older version of the P7's on TireRack's website. The newer model (P7 II) is rated very high for wet driving (9.2) but I see on consumer reports that the prior version (the non-IIs) is rated average for wet drivign. We get rain in North California, at least we used to, so...

I'm about to replace the original 245/45-19 goodyear eagle tires on my 2017 S75 RWD at 34k. I've narrowed it down the Continental DWS 06 Plus based on this thread and tire rack ratings, and the Pirelli P7's. It appears the older P7s, which are "LRR", are still available. The DWS tires will...

That is a great point. I have a very basic model- no sunroof, no air suspsension, rear wheel drive only, no premium package. The only option I purchased was leather seats. Overall, fewer things to break.

I'm trying to decide whether to purchase the extend service agreement for my 2017 Model S R75 which has 32k miles. If you have a Model S or X and it's over 4 years old, please respond. The current cost of the ESA is $2,600 for 2yrs/25K, and $4,750 for 4yrs/50k. Any comments on the value...

Thanks, I just tried. The service option on the phone tells you to use the app, but does allow you to leave a voice mail. So now they have an email, a message on the app, and a voicemail.

I have an 2017 Model S75 that has the eMMC problem. I sent detailed email to the Palo Alto Service Center email account and a message on the app a week ago and haven't been able to get a response. I was asking about timing for the new eMMC chip (my screen crashes or freezes requiring reboot...

My center screen was serviced twice this year for issues with long start up time (2-5 minutes sometimes) and screen lock-ups. Both times they did software/firmware updates. On the first try, they did a general factory software reset, and the second time they did a firmware update to some...

To TwitchAD: Interesting- sounds like a good way to save on the cost of a new Model S. I don't know if it works for a car that is on order, but there is a way to right click on the image of the vehicle on your mytesla page, and paste it into a site that will tell you the options on the car...
