I got a ticket in Beverly Hills for no front plate. Literally pulled me over for no other reason... Nowadays I always have a plate, and I have a vinyl plate on the front. https://licenseplatewrap.com/ FYI, I got some PPF film, and mounted the stick-on plate to the film, and then water to...

YES, they are OPEN (I went last night.) They officially opened on Tuesday December 13th. Last night I was the only car there, and I still only got 70kW... You can go to Starbucks for parking validation, it's about a 200 yard walk. LOCATION. This is in the multi-story car-park on the NORTH...

FYI: With regards to speed limit signs without red circles. In the US, we have white & black speed limit signs. White background with black numbers. These are speed limits. We also have yellow and black signs. Yellow background, black text. These are speed advisories. You often see these on...

Thanks for the replies everyone... I think the long-press for autopilot speedmatch is a Model 3/Y thing, as the model S/X have a dedicated AP stalk. An additional thing that works out here on Model 3/Y is that if you tap on the speedlimit on the screen, it will set the AP speed to that speed...

I've owned a Tesla Model S in the US for about 4 years, and recently went on a trip in the UK. We rented a Model S through Turo, and had a fantastic host who was kind enough to rent us his car. Specifically, we got Model S 75D. It was a refreshed model and since he had purchased FSD, it was...

I have a model S, and my wife has a model x - 7 seater. Switching between them is VERY easy (especially as the controls are the same.) I really don't mind which I drive at the weekend. Recently completed a trip from LA to WA with my wife and I, our 6'4" 18 year old, and two 10 year old kids...

Damn, that is a really, really good question... and I don't have a good answer. Let me check.

Just had to replace the tires on my Model X, which easily had 10K more miles before the wear-bars, but the inside was showing steel. Alignment showed -2.4 rear left, -2.0 rear right. Factory spec states -1.5 with +/- of 1.0 - so just barely in spec. Toe is showing -0.12 (which is out of spec.)...

Using non-Tesla chargers is an interesting choice; I think I'd be chicken. However, what is this CCS adapter; I didn't think it was available out here yet?

So, just did a trip from Los Angeles to northern Washington, and SC network was fantastic. Left the house at 100% on Thursday, driving my wife's 2020 ModelX LR. 10 miles down the road we had to turn around as she forgot a necessary item, a few minutes later and there we were again... Heading...

I've been looking at this trip for a while myself... From Fresno area, you can charge and head into Kings Canyon from the North end of the park. 90% to 45% will take you to the lodge area. Once you go down the hill (leaving at 45%) it's a 12% drive to the Traver Supercharger, arriving around...

Moderator note: Thread title updated to reflect actual equipment seen. So, as I was leaving Long Beach Grand Prix today, I saw a whole bunch of Tesla power equipment on the side of a parking structure. But nothing on the map for a supercharger. And nothing on supercharge.info about a future...

How about finding a Tesla Authorized Body Shop - like Avio Coach Craft in Van Nuys. They've done a couple of repairs for me.

This just happened to me... Car is out of warranty (58k) and the app would not let me make an appointment (if I selected "my location" I could make an appointment, but if I put in an address it would just hang there, and not let me proceed.) I thought of going to the Service Center (Van Nuys...

FYI, here is what I mean about them removing the superchargers from the map... BEFORE on the left, AFTER on the right...

OMG, I hate these "improvements" All they have done is removed frequently used icons on the main menu. Remember when the removed the passenger lumbar support - and backed that up by saying it was only used on 5% of cars? I guess they did not want to do the same research to figure out many...

This is just crazy... Yesterday I drove for 47 minutes, and used 15.78kW of power over 43 miles. I was in Parked for 23 hours, 5 minutes, and used 7.36kW of power. My car used 32% of it's power not to drive. Assuming that this number is somewhat typical, my car wastes 2.5 MWh of power every...

Yes, I have sentry mode running. FYI, looking at some more logs. Overnight I'm losing 5% battery. During work, in a parking lot, I lose 3% battery.

I have a 2018 Tesla Model S, 100D. I have MCU2, and AP3. So my dash says I've driven 63.4 miles, and used 21.3 kWh since last charge. However my battery is at 51% and I charged to 90%. I have TeslaFi logging, and the numbers are accurate. (Adding one trip that was not in the photo.) Over 40...

Thanks. :( Actually used that onramp today; the equipment was surrounded in tape. I was wondering how safe they were from freeway accidents...

Does anyone know what's going on with the Thousand Oaks (East) supercharger? It's been closed for a few weeks. Tape around it, but no activity...

UPDATE. Did the trip. Took the Model X. Charged at the bottom (San Bernadino) and got to cabin at 65%. Cabin had a garage with an outlet! Only Nema15, but okay... Charging was at 12A, 110V, but I got 15-20% overnight. We had a couple of emergency trips to Lake Arrowhead, which took 10% or...

The more I look at it, the more it's like a Model 3. No more vents, no more door handles, no more vertical screen... About the only concession to make it superior to the model 3 is the driver's display (and the gimmicky rear display.)

Missing classic door handles - looks like they're going with Model 3 version. I wonder if the autopilot stalk will also get moved (ala 3/Y). Door pockets are nice. Dual phone dock is nice. Will be interesting to see how much storage is in center console - do I still get 4 cup holders. Can't...

FYI. https://www.tesla.com/powerwall/design Tesla charge $7500 for the powerwall, $1000 for the gateway. However, there is a 26% Federal tax credit, so $6200. There is also sales tax and installation ($3000).

Yeah, I'm dumb, but I cannot figure out what you mean to do. I pull out the cable and I have a long cable. That does not seem to lock anything. I would suspect that the cable comes out, loops through the bikes, and then reattaches to the bike rack in such a way that it makes a loop, and the...

I bought a used Tesla Bike Rack, with no manual. There seems to be a pull-out cable lock, but I cannot figure out how it works. Can anyone help?

Model S OEM Trunk and Frunk mats. Brand new, never used, in original Tesla Shipping box. Retail for $200 (rear) and $70 (front.) Currently out of stock on Tesla Website. This is a set of three mats: Front Trunk (Dual Motor) Rear Trunk Rear Lower Trunk. These are the rubber mats that you put...

Do these work with the 7-seater?

I curbed one of my wheels, and it was too expensive to repair. I bought a replacement set of wheels (used) and was going to replace the bad one. Then my wife bought me new wheels for Christmas... So, selling these wheels. They are the standard factory silver slipstream wheels. 19", no TMPS, no...

Retail is 7000 for the powerwall, and 1000 for the geteway. With a fed tax credit of 22% (2021) brings retail price to $6200...

:) Thanks!

I have been offered an iPhone 12 max as a gift. I currently have a Google phone, and it is a tight squeeze into the Tesla wireless charger - when it has the case on. Does anyone have the iPhone 12 Max with the apple case, and does it fit into the Tesla wireless charger?

I need it to put snow tires on my wife's car without having to go to the service center.

These are 19" Model S factory standard wheels. After I curbed my wheel, I found a set of inexpensive replacements. Before I got around to replacing the bad rim, my wife bought me the Sonic Carbon ones for Christmas. So, I have 4x Silver Slipstream rims for sale. No TPMS. They were a take-off...

Can anyone tell me the current status on tax credits for Powerwall products. i want to add a powerwall (2) to an existing Solar (non-Tesla) house. I use SoCal Edison. What tax credits am I likely to get? Are there any income restrictions? Do any of the programs expire in 2021 (ie I missed them...

So, I have my wife's 2020 Model X, with v2020.48.26 I also have my 2018 Model S, with v2020.48.12.1 My Model S has a "reset TMPS" option. My wife's Model X does not have that option. Am I missing it because of the software update? Or was it never there because it's a newer/different car? Thanks.

I got the update on my 2020 Model X. The "new and improved" supercharger graphic is worse. Instead of showing 20 chargers near me, how large they are, and how many stalls are free, I just get to see how many are free. Less information is never better...

I went through that with my electrician. He made a point of going over the entire installation, looking for a bad cable (2-gauge cable with a nic in it, badly stripped, etc) but could not find anything wrong. I know it's too late now, but I really wish we had reached out to Tesla for a replacment.

Serious question. What is the warranty on these? I had the same thing happen to mine after 13 months, and threw it away. I later heard that they have a 2-year warranty. Can anyone confirm what the warranty is?

Decent price, but I have bought too many wheels this year...

Forgot to mention. Los Angeles area, local pickup, etc.

Hey All. Looking for someone who has one of those PowerWall referral bonuses and want to sell it. Single powerwall with Gateway type thing. Thanks, Nick.

Yeah, this is my first case of true Range Anxiety - thanks guys.

Any recommendations for Ceramic Tint in LA area (SFV preferred). Thanks.

Johnny from Calibred Customs https://www.calibredcustoms.com/ Came out and installed my BlackView in my wife's Model X. Didn't care I bought the camera seperately. Great guy. Good service, Install is working well a year later. They also do lift kits for Frunk, etc.

So, taking the family to Big Bear in February for a week. Really want to take the Tesla... But, where to charge? I have figured out I can use the SuperCharger at the bottom of the mountain, and can make it to the top with 65% remaining. But for a week in BB, that will not last, so I will...

PM Sent.

I have a spare set of wheels for my Model S that came with TPMS. I want to move the TPMS over to a set of snow tires/wheels that I'm putting on my wife's Model X. Do the TPMS need to be programmed, or do they just work?
