    Experience with lemon lawyers?

    So, my MXP. I got it.. 3 months ago? It's been to the shop 5-6 times, mostly for falcon wing doors and random trim/panels/etc. But other issues are killing me too: Last week the cruise control & autosteer died, I set a service appt, then it came back online the next day. They said not to bother...

    Falcon doors new screen descriptions “ quick open press and hold”

    I’ve seen that happen when the sensors get confused, for instance sun overhead at a funky angle. Have to hold the open button on the screen.

    wtf is going on with navigation

    A fun new bug I haven’t seen before.. A trip with two automatic supercharger stops, nav keeps recalculating every 15-20 seconds. Blue line goes away, spinny wheel shows calculating… Disabling avoid tolls or ferries doesn’t change it. Setting traffic time save threshold to 15 mins doesn’t...

    How bad are Falcon Wing doors?

    They really seem hit or miss to me. When they work they kick butt. When they break good luck getting back to normal.

    Falcon wing frozen? New delivery

    Bad news… not quite a month later and the problem has popped up again. 3rd service appointment now scheduled (4th if you count the ranger who couldn’t do anything). Very annoying, doing no favors for my argument to my wife that we should sell the minivan (that has had 0 problems in the 7 years...

    2023 X speakers?

    So all I know is it’s supposedly a 22 speaker system. When I play with the balance and send music all the way back right or back left, it sounds so tinny, like it’s playing out of a phone. I realize the sub is up front, but are the rear speakers really that anemic? Or is something disconnected...

    Registration/plate issue

    California When I filled out order info in the app, I included my P3D for trade, and wanted to transfer the personalized plate. After I got the quote I decided to keep the 3 and asked in the delivery text, Tesla confirmed that I'd be getting new plates for the X: In the meantime I renewed...

    Model year vs build date

    So my "2018" P3D+ has a build date of 12/18, and the corresponding J date code. My "2023" X was built in 11/22, but has a P date code. It only matters because of market value, a '19 being worth more than an '18. Any idea why the X was built a month earlier than the 3 but is a "next year"...

    Falcon door saying it’s open when it’s not

    The SC is telling you that the bottom of the door is RESTING (not resetting, their typo) on the frame of the car. They are recommending a body shop straighten out the body.

    Appears the issue was the fabled overspray problem. Doors have worked fine for a day so far…

    Rain guard for rear view camera (Model S and Model X)

    Had camera rain block issues yesterday. Have you tried a hydrophobic coatings, such as Griot's Glass Sealant?

    Falcon wing frozen? New delivery

    Yeah, the passenger FWD (only) goes dead when it rains. It was raining yesterday and the door was borked; it's dry today and it works fine. Service appointment tomorrow.

    Falcon doors override.

    Yeah my son hit me in the head with a FWD as well. I think I'm going to do some testing and see what the doors actually recognize

    Falcon doors in the rain - sensors borked?

    The door partially opens (between 20° and 45° depending on obstacles detected by sensors). Touch Controls > Locks > Automatic Doors. FWIW auto front door has worked perfectly for me even in tight spaces. Rain does seem to be throwing it off (barely opens). You can close the driver door in at...

    Falcon wing frozen? New delivery

    How did that fix work out for you? Taking mine back in later this week.
  20. ent3ndu

    Falcon doors override.

    You can manually close it - when I say manual, I mean literally grab the door and push it down. It's held in place with struts and springs so it's not that heavy to move if you absolutely have to.

    Falcon doors in the rain - sensors borked?

    '23 MXP When I took delivery it was a dry day, both FWDs worked fine. The next day it started raining, and my passenger FWD died - screen showed BOTH open & close actions, and manually releasing the door was not reflected on the screen (always showed as closed). Took it to SC, they...

    Model X Plaid: 20" vs 22" wheels

    I have the large wheels on my 3 perf, and tbh the rubber band tires are a pita. I blew one out on a freeway pothole. Replacement tires are nearly $2.3k. So I got my X plaid with the 20s. I’m not tracking the X or pushing it to 9/10ths 99.9999999% of the time so I went for more comfy ride and...

    Falcon wing frozen? New delivery

    Ok, mobile service came out but it was raining pretty hard today so they had me bring it in to the SC (kudos to the SC folks for getting me right in). On the drive in, I noticed that I no longer had both open & close buttons, it looked like it was normal. The tech hooked up their computer and...

    Hey I just watched your floor mats video before posting, loved it! I've got a ranger coming out tomorrow morning, so I'll report back what they have to say. I guess I'll stop futzing around until they get here :P

    New '23 plaid delivered yesterday, delivery was great and everything worked perfectly…. Until this afternoon. Passenger falcon wing door not working - screen shows both open and close buttons, small USS detection shown. Tried to force recalibration by manually opening and latching, but no go -...

    Mercedes E Class to Model 3 - any impressions?

    2018 C class here. I feel more cocooned in the MB, the 3 feels like it sits high. I’m undecided on the road noise difference.

    Got A Ticket From Chp For Not Having Hov Stickers

    None of these. I had received my plates and reg card (finally) on Saturday, and had both front and back plates on. It was about 9:30am and traffic was cruising at about 40 mph. I keep follow distance on 3. Interestingly that evening on the commute home I saw another carpool violator being...

    Got A Ticket From Chp For Not Having Hov Stickers

    You sound like you’re looking for a fight. In the very message you quoted I said you were right. In fact I never once said the cop was wrong, or a douche, or anyone else in this thread was wrong, or that I was in the right. I do think that as far as the intent of the law goes it would have...

    Got A Ticket From Chp For Not Having Hov Stickers

    You're not wrong, although I think it's pretty cheeky to lump this situation in with the thousands of people driving in the HOV solo in plain ol' gas cars. I have a plug-in hybrid with HOV stickers sitting in my driveway. I could be burning gas and "fully legal" in the HOV but I chose the...

    Got A Ticket From Chp For Not Having Hov Stickers

    The officer did ask if I could prove I qualified for stickers, which I only could if I had the stickers... so maybe. Although he only asked AFTER he wrote the ticket ;)

    Got A Ticket From Chp For Not Having Hov Stickers

    There's always the question, "to attach hov stickers, or not to attach?" Well, I am one data point - after ~4k miles spent almost exclusively in the HOV lane, I got a ticket (hwy 87, san jose). Tesla messed up my registration (we had to fedex new documents back and forth) and I only got my...

    Putting plastic/vinyl UNDER your HOV stickers.....?

    I put the stickers on 3m film on my other phev. 2 of the stickers were stolen in less than 6 months, once at a car wash and once in a restaurant parking lot.

    Charging collaboration at work

    Yes, and you can’t start another session without scanning another card. If it’s free that’s no biggie, but not if it costs. ChargePoint stations themselves indicate when the car is done charging.

    Check Charging Equipment

    I couldn’t find any answers about this online, so posting here. I just started supercharging at 15%. Nobody sharing the stall - I’m on A and B is empty. Quickly the charge rate went to 146kW, and sat there for a while. After a couple minutes I heard a big bang like someone striking the rear of...

    You have to press the brake while moving the shift lever. Is that physically possible for a 2 year old?

    Moisture condensation in taillights, fog lights, etc

    If it's like my BMW was, the gaskets offgas and sometimes fail. Sucks, but not unique to Tesla for sure.
