    Software Update 2018.39 4a3910f (plus other v9.0 early access builds)

    I see from your reply that I probably did a poor job of getting across my comment about hoping Elon provides them with life insurance :-) It was more of a sick attempt at sarcastic humor. I don't think it it is dangerous. All driving is risky to me regardless of how it is done. I do...

    Software Update 2018.39 4a3910f (plus other v9.0 early access builds)

    OK maybe you would, but not me. I'd want a lot more than they are getting. I hope they are getting life insurance with that. I don't even want the V9 when it comes out. I'll let everyone else work out the bugs. I plan to ignore the update.

    Version 9 and Universal Healthcare are totally related

    I get your point and I agree. It's a great example of why my Dad said he stopped logging in to the "Terrible Members Club" long ago. People get way off the topic, complain, make abusive remarks to others, and mainly just want to pretend they know more about the Tesla than anyone else. I might...

    Poll: Has AP2 18.10.4 surpassed AP1 in terms of performance?

    Interesting. This is not what we see at all with 2018.10.4 on some very winding mountain roads. this new version performs flawlessly for us, so I am puzzled.

    Need Help Outwitting Homelink

    Now I understand why I have homelink not functioning all the time. I usually press the wall switch to leave the garage and find out that the Tesla will not close the door. I'm not sure what algorithm Tesla uses, but I'm thinking it would be simpler if they use GPS to know when to close the...

    12v Battery Needs Service

    So is this battery like the ones in gasoline cars that will need to be replaced every 3-4 years anyway?

    Warning icon? Too cold?

    That graph seems confusing. Are you saying that braking is less when this occurs? Asking so I will know if it happens to me.

    Acceleration Shudder

    So why isn't the car smart enough to not allow hard acceleration if the height isn't at the low setting instead of service people telling drivers not to do it? Confused?

    Weird warnings on my Model X, glitch possibly

    My understanding is that logs automatically upload and are probably in the Tesla computers for several weeks for them to look back at past problems.

    Last Oil Change before Trade-in?

    No, they will probably like it. They'll love to charge you $39.95 to change nothing !

    Tesla new Santa Mode Video (easter egg)...

    Guess you are right. I tried this on my new....uh.... older X this morning and didn't work. Pulled car in driveway and it worked. Thanks

    Limited A/C and battery cooling

    First post here and learning. I got this message of X that Dad handed-down. Called service and they told me it was due to too low battery level and I should charge. Battery level indicated 48 miles remaining. I charged and it message went away.
