    Media Input Issue

    Almost the same problem for me. With SiriusXM, the steering wheel buttons used to move through the radio favorites. Now they go to the next/previous station in numerical order, even if it's not a favorited station. (I have a 2017 Model X 100D with the MCU2 upgrade, but I assume it's the same...

    Is Your MCU1 Model X Still on 2019.40.2.1?

    Yep, I also have a MCU1 X (2017 100D) and am still on 40.2.1. I also tried setting the car to "advanced" but it still says there is no update available. And I also have the bad ping-pong autosteer behavior. It's bad enough that I won't use autosteer with anyone else in the car because it will...

    No more manual battery preheating?

    Nope range mode is not on. Once I’m driving the battery does warm up eventually, but on a 10-15 minute drive in the city I might not get any regen until I’m almost at my destination.

    No more manual battery preheating?

    Ever since my Model X got the update with the Scheduled Departure feature, pre-heating the car manually (e.g., going into the app and turning on climate) does not preheat the battery. The battery icon doesn't appear in the upper-right, and when I get into the car after 15-20 minutes of cabin...

    Driver Door Open motor failed

    This just happened with my July 2017 MX100D. The driver’s door could only be opened from the inside by pulling the handle all the way and then gently nudging the door open. The SC diagnosed it as a failed “door latch actuator”. It took about 10 minutes to diagnose when I brought the car in, a...

    Does anybody regret buying Model X for your main car?

    Yep, I know about that. But it’s not the default, and I think by having it display rated miles by default, new owners are lulled into a false sense of security about their available range. If it displayed percent by default, it would at least not be making a misleading statement (sort of like...

    Does anybody regret buying Model X for your main car?

    While all of this is true, I think Tesla made a bit of a user interface mistake by displaying charge in “rated miles” rather than percentage on the dashboard. The rated charge figure can be misleading for people who don’t understand how EVs work, and that the energy per mile can vary by as much...

    Another Model X Problem!!! 3rd row seat stuck in down position.

    Same problem here. You should call the SC, I was told that I needed a new seat cable and they’d have to order it. Still waiting for it to come in ~5 weeks later. Fortunately I don’t use the 3rd row seats much so it hasn’t been that much of an inconvenience, but I agree with others that it’s yet...

    Post Software Update - Model X non-responsive

    You’re being much, much nicer than I would be in this situation. If my car was undrivable and unresponsive, I would ask that they valet deliver a loaner to me ASAP (same day) and flatbed the car to the SC for repair. No way I would let it sit for a week+ while hoping someone could come fix it.

    Missing Tow Package?

    You need to ask your OA to specifically check the configuration. Generally inventory cars are sold “as built” regardless of what was or wasn’t standard equipment at the time. If there’s something you need to have (tow hitch, sub-zero package, etc.) you should not depend on it being standard...

    No More Quick Connection Phone Dock for PUP?

    Yeah, I sort of wish I hadn’t made a big deal with my DS asking him to install it. I never use it because it’s impossible to get the phone lined up, it doesn’t work in a case, and you can’t see the phone without unplugging it from the dock. I’d rather plug into a regular charging cable and set...

    Picked up X last night and...

    Unfortunately I’m in the other camp. Bought a MX 100D inventory vehicle with ~900 miles on it and took delivery mid-November. I figured that since it was an inventory car any “infant mortality” issues would already have manifested and been taken care of. When I picked up the car, I noticed the...

    TACC in stop-and-go traffic

    Interesting...I’ve usually been keeping it at 3, which is where I usually have it set for highway speeds. I’ll have to try the higher settings the next time I’m stuck in traffic and see how it is! The behavior I’ve experienced so far is bad enough to make my wife and son carsick, and they’ve...

    TACC in stop-and-go traffic

    When stuck in traffic, TACC (and autosteer) do a great job of reducing mental load...you can just sit there and let the car speed up and slow down for you. However, passengers have commented that the car is much “jerkier” when accelerating and braking than a human driver (me) would be. Putting...

    LTE slowness

    I can confirm that streaming is 10x better now. It’s like night and day. Songs start instantly, the whole song buffers within a few seconds (instead of keeping barely ahead of real-time). Zero loading errors in ~45 minutes of listening tonight. Awesome to finally have it working!

    8.0 XM Channel List - Where Did it Go?

    When you’re tuned to channel 1 (the demo channel) can you actually hear any audio? Does the signal meter show any bars? If not I would contact your SC and ask them to check the radio. However, you do have to request the activation when the car is on, tuned to ch. 1, and has a clear view of the...

    Model X July 2017 Build Standard Options

    If you're looking at an inventory car you should ask your OA for a specific list of what it has (and if there are specific features you want, ask if it has those). Inventory vehicles are sold "as built", and it's very hard to predict based on a build date what equipment it has. Any pricing...

    Brake / Turn Signal Behavior

    Mine does this too. I assume it's to make the turn signal easier to see by not having a bright red brake light next to it. Some vehicles also do this with the front signals and the running lights (the DRL on the side with the turn signal turns off while the signal is flashing), but I don't think...

    Streaming sucks since last firmware update

    My Model X was in for service for some other issues so I asked about this. The SA said that it's a known issue that Tesla is working to resolve and should be fixed in one of the next couple of updates. It's apparently happening to everyone.

    About dropping your MX back at dealership for tweaks after being delivered

    Following up on my experience: The XM radio problem is due to the fact that the factory didn't install the XM antenna when they built the car. They've ordered an XM antenna and cable and will be installing it tomorrow when it arrives. According to the sales manager, my car was already in...

    Middle row seat broke, with 5+ week replacement wait

    If you need to regularly use those seats, I'd ask for a loaner until the new seats arrive.

    About dropping your MX back at dealership for tweaks after being delivered

    The iPhone charger is an accessory that turns part of the center console into a phone dock. I believe it's supposed to be included in the PUP.

    About dropping your MX back at dealership for tweaks after being delivered

    Wow, I feel like I got off easy now, but I'm still disappointed that there were any issues at all. I picked up my Model X today and had the following issues at delivery: Trim plate missing from face of rear seat pop-out cupholder XM radio option not visible on media screen Missing tow package...

    XM Radio and Category Folders

    Why not set up favorites for all the stations you usually listen to and then tune by favorites? This is what I've done on every other car that had Sirius/XM radio. The only time I need to directly tune a station is when I'm setting up the presets. Does this not work on the Model X for some reason?

    Can anyone help me find any good deals?

    There seems to be a lot of inventory that isn't on the public website so I think you pretty much have to go through an OA to see everything. I was recently looking for a new inventory X100D and my OA was consistently finding things in his system that weren't visible on tesla.com or the community...

    Opinions on 5-seater vs. 7-seater?

    Interestingly the tail end of that thread has feedback from a few people with 5-seaters who say the AC is just fine. Does the extra fan/ducting/vents run to the 2nd row vents or just the 3rd row? My OA claims that the rear heat/AC in the 7-seater only drives the 3rd row vents, and the 2nd row...

    Multipattern textile seats and spills/kids

    Looking to buy a Model X and the OA has been able to find an inventory vehicle that's almost exactly what I want, except it has the black multipattern textile base seats instead of black leather and is missing the subzero package. We have a kid (11 years old) and all of us eat & drink in the car...

    Opinions on 5-seater vs. 7-seater?

    Does the rear AC help cool the 2nd row, or just the 3rd? I'm also trying to decide between the 5 & 7 seaters; we probably won't use the 3rd row seats very often, but if it has better AC for the 2nd row it would be worth getting it.
