Camping and now they are tired after long run on the beach.

Everywhere..... thats why i have the MX.

No, I think it would be a waste of time. Leschwab said tire manufactures make it so hard to get anything back. They just make you jump through a bunch of hoops and you never get anything for the amount of time and effort put in. I will see how many miles i get out of this set. If i only get...

Update on out of balance tires. So i broke down a purchased all new tires due to the shudder. When we removed the tire from the wheel. The foam inside the tires were loose. One was balled up inside the tire. Tesla service center said it a Perrelli problem. Sucks i had great tire tread on the...

Yes I have 22” wheels and love the look... I have 20,000 miles on mine, however just this week I have noticed a shudder at high (+70 mph). For details see my post on ”acceleration shudder”. Page 22. Anyway look at the inboard side of the tires, if the MX was set at “low” ride height then I...

So no more shudder at high speed... Like the above post states my local Les Schwab has a road force balance machine. My tires were way out of balance. We balananced all four tires and now I have no shudder/vibration at speeds up to 110mph. The bad thing is we had to install a massive amount of...

I have a 2017 last day of the year MX vin 79xxx with 20,000 miles on it. I just started to have a bad shudder all over the car. It started last week at speeds over 45mph. I took it to my local tire shop Les Schwab in Portland Oregon area. They said it was a tire that had a “hard rubber area”...

I was at the portland service center today and I saw vin 140xxx. That is the total X manufactured since day 1...

So I just drove 1200 miles from Portland To Palm Springs. I used the AP feature a lot and I had zero situations with braking unexpectedly. I think Tesla maybe improving this situation. Now that I have 15,000 miles and a year under my belt on AP. I guess i pretty much know when to use AP and when...

Don’t get me wrong I love my MX... I just wanted to let other know of this situation. I use my autopilot all the time while I am on the interstate. It works great most 98% of the time. I know when its not proper to use the AP. It works great with good painted lines and while traveling in the...

Terry White you stated “this happens”. Wow how ofter does this happen? Just one time scared the s_th out of me. I guess the first time is the worst. I am sorry the brakes did not lock up. The ABS operated at full force. The reason I pressed the brake down was to disengage the system. Like...

I was driving south on i5 in Washington state two weeks ago going 70-75mph on autopilot with navigation on and suddenly the brakes locked up and the car was coming to a sudden stop. I hit the brakes my self and then the accelerator as quick as I could. I looked in my rear view mirror and luckily...

Did the guys at discount tires show you what they found? They maybe blowing smoke. If the wheel is bent you should be able to see the offset/bend. You may have just lost the weights from the wheel.

The installation was a little challenging. I did it myself. I think with a bubbly it would have been a lot easier. I used double sticky 3m tape and silicone. One spot stat would not stay down I had to use contact cement. The side skirts and the front were simple. The rear was the most...

I found them on Craigslist, a guy was selling them from his lease return MX. I picked them up pretty cheap $1,500. They are from Novitec Group.

I just installed these on my model X. What do you guys think?

That’s exactly what the problem was. However it sticks in the out position. I had to spray the little gear and spring inside the handle with silicone spray and now it works great.

Sorry, I just had too... My wife has a red M3 however we dont have any good location pics.

My wife has a 2018 Model 3, early production around 10,000 vin number. Recently when we try to close the door after getting in we pull on the handle to close the door and it closes however it does not latch. We have to pull the door again and it latches correctly. So does anybody else have an...

Ok, got the kit installed. Looks great, the double sticky tape was a big help. I had to clean the surfaces with denatured alcohol. This helped the tape stick better.

I found a guy on CL (lease return) selling his carbon fiber kit for a good price compared to new. So I am getting ready to install the kit on my MX. I have dry fitted the parts and they all seem to align pretty well some area’s of gaps. They are overlays over the oem plastic parts. I have looked...

I have 10,000 miles in the last 6 months. Average about 385. Wheels 22” tesla turbine wheels. Mixed driving 70 hwy / 30 city average freeway speed about 65-75. I have noticed that rainy days really take a toll on kw’s.

Sorry for posting autopilot i ment autosteer.

I have a 2017 MX and will take delivery of a M3 in a few weeks. Autopilot (in the MX) is a bit scary in some situations. Most of all is when you are driving on roads that are not well traveled. Country roads it will only travel at 45 mph. It drives like a first time teenager driving with Dad...

Jim, do you tow your airstream with your MX? It looks like your airstream is about 19-20ft at about 4,500 pounds?

I believe he could have went further between charges. This was his maiden voyage so he is not comfortable pushing his range. He did not say how fast he was going. It was cool outside about mid 40’s. I would suspect 2hrs of driving old be more appropriate. Yes my ICE 2016 Tundra gets about 450...

I was just at the super charging station in Salmon Creek Washington and I saw this 2017 MX 100D towing a 19ft trailer. I spoke to the guy with this setup and he said he lives in Olympia and just picked up the trailer in Medford Oregon. He was on his way home, Maiden voyage. He said he was not...

Still NO POWER!!!! Sunday 1-28-2018... This sucks... We need this open, its a great location. 12 stalls...

I tried the umbrella and it works great... Thank you Tony

6000 pound IPhone

That’s a great idea... anybody else have any ideas’s.

I was concerned that I would not like the red when I ordered my car. All the pic I saw looked different and I was not sure about my choice. However after I took delivery, I love the red color. It looks so good in the sun... and the black 22” wheels you can not beat. Everywhere I go guys want to...

I just got my new MX. I am looking for some help/idea’s of what other owners have done to keep your fury kids in the back. My car is the five seat configuration i like the large flat space for my dogs. I just cant keep them from jumping in the front seats when I level them in the car. Thanks...

Wrap the wheels...

Ordered Nov 24th Delivery Dec. 31st 2017 Name: 6000# IPhone Most interesting/best car I have owned. Lots of fun... Tony

Kyle and I.

Wow this is one impressive computer. This will take some getting used to. Almost like a #6000 iphone. Haha I love it so far. I hope it does not let me down. I will have to remember drive it like a car and learn how to use it as i get comfortable with all the technology. My DS Kyle was very...

I am on my way to pickup my MX in portland. I thought i woukd stop by and see the charging station on I5 at shasta city. Theybare all shut off. WTF. I hope they get turned on soon. Anybody know the status of when they will be turned on? Thanks Tony

Mrjason, can you ask DS Kyle if my car is there? If so can you snap a pic and send it to me? Should be the only red with 22” black wheels. Good luck on your delivery. Thanks Tony

Bbbrown thats great. That means my MX is also there in portland. Yaaaa. My wife and two beagles are leaving palm spings this morning headed back to portland to pick up delivery on sunday morning. Two more sleeps. Tony

Congrats Toddl, I love that dark gray color. I am glad to hear you finally got your MX. That is nice to hear the model 3’s are rolling out. Its pretty important they get those out on the road. There has been a lot of pressure to perform on Tesla to get that car to delivery. Do you know how...

Zimownage, sorry to hear about the scratches. Thats a bummer i am sure Tesla will take care of it. Ask for a p100d as a loaner when the fix your scratches. Glad to hear the fit and finish on the other hand looks good. I can not wait to get mine. Three more sleeps. Thanks Tony Pics?

Congrats John in LB. The wait was finally over. How did you like the delivery process? I have never been able to look a car over like they let you at Tesla. Most dealers just give you the keys and maybe sink your phone up. This looks like it should be a great experience as long as they can be...

If you are able too, please post a picture of your new MX after you take delivery. Hopefuly with a big smile. Thanks Tony

My MX has been sitting at the factory completed waiting for truck from 12-18-2017. I have seen every YouTube video on the model X and reviewed just about every forum read the manuals. I have the new Tesla Jacket purchased a spare charger, got the floor mats delivered also the window screen. All...
