    Drove by and saw the construction fence up in the parking lot so I went to check the permit application and found out that the permit was issued yesterday. Appears that construction is moving quickly.

    Supercharger - El Centro, CA (8 V2 stalls)

    My first encounter with a Medium wait. Does that mean more than 10 minutes? Is there such thing as a “Long wait”? And what would that mean?

    108 degrees at El Centro and charging stalled at 35kw so I implemented the cooling hack and charging jumped back up to 68kW. It does work!

    Falcon Wing Door Glass Seal deteriorating

    They are on at least version 5 of these glass panels so it has taken a while to get these seals right... long after the initial rollout of the MX. My second set of glass replacements installed in the last six months are holding up well... so far.

    Falcon Wing Door Glass Seal deteriorating

    The service center replaced both FWD glass panels for a second time within the last 6 months on our Dec 2017 MX. We politely pointed out the deteriorated seals and they immediately took the car in for replacement.

    Trunk Load Floor - Broken Fin / Shelf

    You only need about 1/4 yard of material ($1.35) to cover both boards for so this 5 yard roll of black carpet liner is 20X more material than you need. 3M Super 77 spray is a fast and durable adhesive which makes this easy. Install Bay AC301-5 Auto Carpet- Black -5-Yards...

    Really weird occurrence

    If you look to the right of the wire photo, you can see a black bracket with a round opening where the wire is secured.

    Really weird occurrence

    Common problem. Wheel speed sensor cable that came loose and started rubbing against your wheel. Take a look behind each front wheel and see if the cable came loose.

    Trunk Load Floor - Broken Fin / Shelf

    I have broken these load floor minion brackets by simply carrying a case of Costco bottled water and driving over speed bumps; they are pretty fragile and break easily. So I have already broken both sides twice and had them repaired under warranty but now that I'm at 60K miles I thought I would...

    Aero Wheel Cap Kit

    Need better tires than stock on my 2019 X?

    The Model X loaner that I received from my Tesla Service Center during my last visit was outfitted with Nexens. They were quiet and more efficient than the Continentels on my X. I only drove them for a couple of hundred miles but they were impressive... and come to find they are available at...

    Best Year/Model to Buy Used Model S

    In my opinion, late 2017 or 2018 Model S 100D owners have better value cars for these reasons: 1) Free unlimited Supercharging 2) Upgradeability to MCU 2 / HW 3.0 3) Free premium connectivity 4) 72 Amp wall connector charging. (reduced to 48 Amp max in 2019) 5) FSD upgrade was only $2000 in 2019

    2017 model X HW3 and MCU2 upgrade

    Hardware 2.0 cameras were installed between Oct 1 2016 and Aug 1 2017. I assume thats when your car was built. Our hardware 2.5 MX was built in Dec 2017. Tesla wont upgrade your cameras but you can do it yourself. Here: Camera Upgrade – TeslaTap

    2017 model X HW3 and MCU2 upgrade

    We have a Dec 2017 build MX 100D and did the same $4500 upgrades. It truly is like a new car but with these added benefits: Free premium connectivity, free unlimited supercharging, and FSD (when released). We could afford to upgrade to the new refresh 2021 MX but I don’t see any incentive...

    NHTSA asks Tesla to recall 158,000 [now 135,000] vehicles for eMMC failure. Voluntary Recall issued

    How many folks are in the category that upgraded and paid for MCU2? We pre-emptively upgraded our MS and MX. A refund would be appropriate.

    When will 3rd row option be available to order again?

    Air suspension on our X,S is considerably smoother than our Model 3 without it. Air suspension is simply a better ride all around and it’s adjustable.

    When will 3rd row option be available to order again?

    are there any pictures of the 3rd row?

    When will 3rd row option be available to order again?

    3rd row is still grayed out in the Tesla configurator. Come on Elon! At least confirm forward or aft facing.
