    Rats Chewed Wires

    Thanks! Yeah after further examination it appears as though it goes to the side camera. I checked video on thumb drive and it appears good. Just the mess sheathing appears to be affected as well as the other destroyed wires :confused:

    Rats Chewed Wires

    Rats, chewed through an unknown wiring harness. The harness is a small cluster of wires (3-5 wires ???), that consists of a purple wire (for sure), possibly a red wire and a "thick" black one (almost looks as if the black one has shielding, similar to a coaxial cable)(the black one is...

    Tesla Warranty, worthless and dishonest

    Purpose of these plasticizers?

    Tesla Warranty, worthless and dishonest

    Not in the realm of possibilities that excess heat on the item could cause plastic to become more brittle and under “normal” force (different for each individual) that the plug could crack? The corresponding receptacle is not cracked.

    Tesla Warranty, worthless and dishonest

    Veh: 2017 Tesla S 75D (received in 2018). Mobile charger included w/veh I went to Dublin Tesla Service Dept today to get them to replace my Mobile Charger as the portion that inserts into receptacle on vehicle was cracked. Been cracked for awhile as I was noticing a black gummy substance on...

    Acceptable Degradation?

    2017 Model S 75D (259 mile range) Has not been charging to capacity for a couple of years, expected. However mine has 33,532 miles and is showing a battery degradation of 10%. Avg 347 times 163 mile projected range, divided by 84% = 0.897793650793651 First is this correct n the calculation...

    Wiki Sudden Loss Of Range With 2019.16.x Software

    Forgive me as I’m late to this party and haven’t been able to read through all of the posts. I’ve always been concerned with battery degradation and even researched prior to purchase to try and mitigate this, from the start. I don’t do much if any supercharging and I maintain the battery...

    Just Fart Mode - no other updates

    Yeah, this is BS. The “Founders”, essentially everyone who purchased an S and an X is getting screwed and under appreciated with the fact that we paid double/triple what a Model 3 purchaser has paid. The Model 3 purchasers should not expect to receive certain perks due to their value purchase...

    Fonts screwed up on center console display.

    Some of the titles for certain icons on the center display are screwed up or letters are missing. Not on all applications. Mainly on the ones associated with the square and up arrow icon that pulls up the calendar, energy, etc. calendar is missing the “l” and the “ar”. Energy is missing the...

    Model S - V9 software downgrade, not what I purchased.

    Couldn't agree with you more! It sucks losing the ability to populate the center console the way i want it. I liked having the backup camera on all the time and at the top of the console and having the music play list at the bottom. I very rarely use the map feature, unless i go somewhere...

    Sunnyvale Dealership Collision

    Not sure. She was backing (lurching) then claimed to try and hit brake and accelerated backwards into the showroom. When you are backing an X in the front lot (outside) just outside of the showroom and accelerate through the plate glass window, to the showroom, you end up inside of the...

    Sunnyvale Dealership Collision

    Test drive of an X results in test driver backing into Sunnyvale Showroom. X and S suffer damage. Test Driver hits accelerator as opposed to brake and accelerates through glass front to showroom.

    Idiot trying to unplug my car during Supercharging

    Insurance Fraud

    It’s a private property collision (rules of the road don’t apply) police don’t take reports on these or similar.

    Insurance Fraud

    So I had a minor (and when I say minor....almost unnoticeable) collision with my Tesla S. Was simultaneously backing while another vehicle was backing in a parking lot (subway and no cameras, facing collision area). I stopped just in time and unfortunately he did not. The impact was so soft I...

    2017 Model S 75D (White); 15,524 mi; Unlimited Supercharging; $77K

    Its just interesting that Amacfa claims to know the appraisal value of "your" vehicle from Carmax. Maybe "he" accidentally logged in via his account and posted info about "your" car. Also interesting is he created his account same day he tries to drum up interest in "your" car. Maybe you...

    Autopilot on GTA Highways (401/404/DVP) - Worth it?

    like others have already stated, i find it most useful in stop and go traffic where it can be more annoying to manually drive in. Where it does not do well is on the open road where you normally drive faster than the posted speed and the freeway makes a decent bend and the vehicle begins to...

    Model X Crash on US-101 (Mountain View, CA)

    They typically will only cut the posts (A, B or C) or door hinges to remove driver/passenger(s). Plus these vehicles are not common place with them and I'm sure have been instructed to stay away from the floors (battery compartments).

    HPWC Cord Cover

    I elected to install mine in the ceiling. Screwed velcro straps to the ceiling for the excess cable (coiled up) and the remaining end with the plug hangs about a foot below the inlet of the vehicle. Works great and with the 220 in the center of the ceiling it allows me to put the vehicle...

    Anyone else have the revozport spoiler?

    Yes RPMTesla has both OEM and non-OEM styles in carbon fiber gloss and matte finish. I have the matte OEM style and very pleased with the fit and finish and for $175, you cant beat it.

    Durability of generic Carbon Fiber spoiler?

    Been very happy with mine from RPMTesla. For intensive purposes looks just like the OEM one. They carry it in carbon fiber gloss or matte. They also have a non-OEM style as well.

    3M Clear Bra, full front wrap

    3M Clear Bra, full front wrap

    Thought I was getting a deal on a full front rap (bumper, full hood and full front fenders) for $1300. However when i picked up the vehicle I could see the wrap on everything as the edges were not wrapped and you can see the wrap edge approximately 1/8" from all edges. My biggest concern is...

    Should Valet Mode be Maintenance Mode

    If not limit the top speed then at least reduce acceleration. I tried it today and it accelerates too fast still. Better yet if they would allow the user to adjust both acceleration and top speed settings in the valet mode setting.

    DS promises?

    I thought most owners experienced roughly a week when their vehicles entered production until it cleared production. I received this...... "Your beautiful Tesla is being built! Looks like mid-December. As it progresses and clear I will keep you posted." ......from my DS on the 30th of...

    50amp install

    Still waiting for my December delivery of my MS. Was thinking of mounting my 50amp outlet into the ceiling of my garage and mounting a shelf, below it, for the charger so it doesn't hang on the plug, causing it to pull out. Then coil and hang enough of the cable so it dangles about 1-2' below...

    Confused. Xpel vs 3M vs other?

    How much does it cost for either the 3M or XPEL product, partial front coverage or full front coverage?

    Model S in production

    SoAmpt, I ordered a 75D on the 6th of Nov and heard on the 11th from my DS. I'll ask her if she can let them know to just throw the bracket into the trunk. If she asks why I'll tell her I'm moving to AZ soon and they don't require front plates. Most in Ca don't get hassled for no front plate...

    Model S in production

    My model S just went into production. I reside in California and do not wish to have the front license plate bracket mounted. Any California owners who can speak on whether Tesla drills holes in the front bumper and mounts this as a matter of practice?
