    2022.20.17 installing

    So, I got the update installed this morning, and it DID give me FSD beta. Not quite used to it and it definitely has some issues, but it took me around a roundabout without issue so far. Gonna definitely have to play with it 😆

    2022.20.17 installing

    I just got the notification for 20.17, but I don't have the FSD beta (opted in, still waiting)

    Fix to: Locked out

    Just to clarify, your phone cannot directly connect to your car to unlock it (in other words, it cannot act as a bluetooth key, but I believe the Model 3 can). You have to use the app to send the unlock command through the Tesla servers to your car. You say you put both keys in the console at...

    FSD Computer upgrade issues

    Thanks for that info!

    FSD Computer upgrade issues

    Out of curiosity from those who have done the upgrade, did Tesla contact you to upgrade the hardware? Just bought the software update today, but was curious how this process goes. I have a 2018 Model S, MCU1, but AP 2.5 HW. Thanks.

    What did you name your car?

    My S is the metallic blue, so "You're my boy Blue!"

    Something rolling inside hood

    In my March 2018 S the tailgate had a screw rolling around in there, which I got out when I ran the wires for my Blackvue 2 channel dash cam... I'd bet that it's left over screws or such from assembly.

    Model S randomly starts blaring music in the middle of the night...

    Don't tempt the Tesla gods! I'm sure it would wake my 5 month old and 5 year old up, and I'd never hear the end of it from my wife....

    Model S randomly starts blaring music in the middle of the night...

    I have noticed that if I am on the phone talking to someone and I get out of the car, the radio will actually stay on. It's quite odd. It even happens if I change the output of the audio to the phone first and then get out of the car. I've come back to my car at work hours later and the audio...

    Windshield Washer Fluid Voume?

    Thanks! Where did you find this info? Is it in the manual anywhere?

    Windshield Washer Fluid Voume?

    So, I've done some searching, and looked through the newest version of the Owner's Manual. I cannot seem to find the volume that the windshield washer fluid reservoir holds. I recently filled mine up with an entire GALLON. Never did that before on my old school Ford Taurus. Anyone have any...

    Web App for Viewing TeslaCam Videos

    Finally got around to partitioning and setting up a USB drive today....which let me try out your website. Thanks so much for this simple appearing website, which works great. I can import all the clips at once, and it plays through them sequentially and with all 3 views synced up. Just wanted...

    Oedro Model S All weather mats for $65?

    Hopefully they come back in stock soon. It was my first winter with a new car and black carpets....salt seems to make a mess. I definitely need good mats. I have the web page open and refresh it nearly daily. Still sold out sadly.

    Price increases 3/18. Will FSD option go up as well?

    Well thats odd. Mine was listing $2k lately, and now its just GONE from my account as an option to purchase. It was there yesterday, and not today. I was contemplating the purchase as well.

    screen discoloration

    I'll chime in as they FINALLY got my screen in about 2 weeks ago, and 1 week ago I got a call from the SC suggesting I wait until a permanent fix is ready, but he said August or September. I kinda wonder if they are trying to keep us appeased until they really do have a fix for this. No...

    screen discoloration

    This. I set up via the online system an appt for about 3 weeks back and called the day before the appt. They told me not to come in as they didn't have the part (that was 1 week of time already). I called 1 week later and they still didn't have the screen, and they said something along the...

    Well, I called yesterday (on hold for 20 minutes, just waiting for someone to pick up!) and they don't have the part. No estimate was given.

    screen discoloration

    I scheduled an appt at the Kansas City location for last Friday through the online system. I explained the issue in my notes. Luckily, I called the day before my scheduled appointment, as when they checked, they had no screen available. Haven't heard anything back in the following week. I will...

    10/16/18 Is LTE out?

    Same here, also in KC area. LTE still not working. I did shut the power off for a good 5 min, then rebooted the MCU as well. No dice.

    screen discoloration

    Whats the best way to get this fixed? I just noticed this on my car about 2 weeks ago, and is much more obvious with the new software. I know I can schedule an appt online, but I really can't make it to the Tesla shop during working hours. Can I call and schedule (or even better, online) a...

    screen discoloration

    I just noticed this the last week on my similar Model S75D Feb 2018 build. I'm kinda pissed to be honest, even if it doesn't cost me anything to get it replaced. I don't want it to fail again in a year or two or three when it would cost me $1000+. In a similar vein, whats the best way to set up...

    interior temperature

    Perhaps a dumb question, but as far as I can tell, is there no way to see the interior temp sensor reading other than in the app? Seems odd to me that I can see my goal temp for the AC, but never what the actual temp is.

    Issue with android phone and radio staying on

    I can only hope that you are right...I rather gate it when I get back in the car and the podcast has restarted it it has changed to a completely different source. I'm no software engineer, but I can't imagine that this is all that complicated to fix

    Issue with android phone and radio staying on

    Hah! Not a clue man...wish I knew. It must be on the car's software side.

    Issue with android phone and radio staying on

    I actually have had this problem. It's almost like it doesn't know the phone has left the car, and just starts piping the radio out the speakers. Very odd.

    Blackvue Dashcam Installer in SoCal on AP2.0 Model

    I know that this is a bit off of your inital question, but I'm an electric novice, and I installed mine with a home made wiring harness and ran the wires all the way to both cameras. Hardwired to the 12v available under the grate up front. No visible wires anywhere. There were some awesome...

    Heart vs Head (S vs 3)

    I got my S two months ago. I had an '04 Ford Taurus before that, which is considered a full size car (the heater had died, was leaking oil, and the cruise control had stopped as well). I was very surprised to realize that the S was actually smaller than the Taurus had been. Definitely shorter...

    Did you name your Model S, and if so, what?

    Just got my blue S75D, and so far it's been "You're My Boy, Blue!" (props to those who get the movie reference) It's a bit of a mouthful (I've also been told that that's a phrase, not a name), so I'm looking for another blue related name. Suggestions welcome.

    For New S/X Buyers: 5 Extra Tesla Semi Hats From The Unveiling

    I just picked up my brand spanking new Model S on Thursday. Best few days ever! If you don't get any other requests, I would be interested in a semi hat.

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Nah. It might actually be done, but as far as I can tell, your Delivery Specialist has to change the status for the website to show a change. Mine took 5-6 days in production and was quickly shipped out. When my DS called to tell me it was done in production and shipping, an hour later the...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I, as others here well tell you, am convinced that those updates are not automated, but actually manually changed by your DS. An hr after my DS told me that I was out of production, my status on the website changed. Check your website later today. It'll probably be updated.

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    That should mean your car is very much ready for delivery. Mine is in transport and tentatively for delivery on Thursday and I haven't seen that status. If you haven't heard from your delivery specialist you should very soon. Also, I am 99% sure that the delivery specialist is the one who...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I'm impressed. I was tempted to try an do some of this work myself and just have the electrician do the final connections, but I think I'm going to wuss out... I've got about 75-85 feet to cross, and I've never done this kind of work before. Any tips or tricks you've learned?

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    So, pretty cool day today. The website had update last Friday 2/23 that my car had gone into production. I hadn't heard anything from my DS, but I figured I wouldn't check until the car was done with production. My DS gave me a call today (3/1) and said that the car had just finished...

    OOOOH. I ordered 1/31, confirmed 2/3, VIN 2/4. I saw that it went into production the day after yours, 2/23. I haven't heard squat about scheduling my delivery appt though. I'm hoping the car will get to me mid march since I'm out of town the last week! I'm in the KC area, so a little less...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I just checked on the website and didn't think I'd see anything new. In production! Awesome! Especially since my DS said production wasn't for another week or so at least. Super excited! (Ordered 1/31, Confirmed 2/3, VIN 2/4)

    Blackvue 750S on sale for $275

    According to the website it carries a warranty (whatever that is worth). If I am not mistaken, I think it gets shipped directly from Blackvue (but I could be wrong).

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I emailed my DS (impatience got a hold of me!), and he at least was able to tell me that production isn't scheduled until the first week of March (so at least I can stop obsessively checking the website!) and hopefully delivery the 3rd week of March or so. :) Hopefully it'll stick to that, and...

    Waze Maps should be coming soon

    Yeah, thats the problem with computers, or any database really. Only as good as the data they're given, so "crap in, crap out." Makes me wonder why Tesla doesn't access any other data sources (waze or google, etc). And, it's about time that they get rid of that suicide lane on Grant. I...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I thought about at least doing some of the labor myself first would save $, and then just have the electrician do the final hookup and inspection (where I live, ANY electric work needs a permit and inspection!). Honestly, electrical work isn't complicated or hard, but the wire itself (or rather...

    My panel is on the opposite corner in the basement. Have to cross one area of finished basement (about 25 feet) then into an unfinished area for another 25 feet and into the garage for about 25 more feet. All of the bids have been about $1000 (or even more than that!)
