    Did you get the Auto pilot HW3 upgrade and do you see Cones?

    On garbage day our hw3 mcu2 model x display is so cluttered with the garbage can images that it's almost unusable - we live in a townhome community so there's literally 60 garbage barrels as we leave our garage and drive out of the area

    Model S screen turning off

    my screen is off now every single time I park the car and get back into it since HW3 upgrade. It needs to fully reboot every time.

    Lock myself out

    This happened to our Model X - car locked with key inside it. We were outside an area that had cellular reception so we couldn't use the app to unlock either. We tried every door and none would open the car. However, the trunk for some reason opened. Crawled in that way.

    2020 S blank dash and display - what to check?

    I've called tesla roadside assistance when I had an issue with my keyfobs. They are happy to help and its much faster than making an appointment.

    Red light stopping

    I have yet to have an instance where it incorrectly stopped at a green light - it works remarkably well for me

    12 Volt Battery

    so then why are they using an automotive battery...just use a deep cycle marine battery. doesn't that seem link an obvious solution?

    Middle row on 7 seater?

    that's interesting - I have the 6 seater, and the seats are electronically adjustable 4-way. However, there are no arm rests! It's really odd that the arm opposite the door just kind of hangs there

    Model 3 - Windshield wiper washing not efficient.

    The model x wipers also squirt out from the blade, and frankly they're really good. I'm surprised they couldn't make the 3 wipers work as well. The s wiper squirters are garbge - they operate the same as the ones did on my 1986 honda accord ...

    Brakes at 27k miles? Really?

    I had to have my pads replaced at 3,600 miles...I bought a demo car (sold as new), but it had 3,550 miles on it when I got it. God only knows the damage people were doing to it during test drives if it had no brakes left after 3,600 miles...they at least did it under good will

    Extensive Energy Leak?

    from my experience once the vehicle goes below 3% of the set charge level the charger comes back in. I set my car to 90% and usually find it at 87% by the morning. I have a few times checked it around midnight and seen 87% and then in the morning it was back up to 90%.

    Tesla Under Attack - Attempted bribery and malware

    is it technically possible for someone to hack Tesla's system, and gain control of a particular (or all) vehicles and activate summon or something similar and have a car start driving itself? I'm not a software guy so I don't really know if that's technically possible

    Strange Homelink issues?

    mine has functioned like this from the factory. works significantly better in the wife's model x. I just assumed it was poor antenna placement; I didn't realize that other people's Model S homelink worked any better

    Sentry mode while parked at home?

    I had this issue where sentry mode was running at home even though I had it set not to. What I realized is that my home address routes to the front of the house (town house community), but the garage is behind the house and the car thinks its a different address. So when I parked in the garage...

    What 'accessories' are included in current (2020) Model X delivery?

    wait - its supposed to go ABOVE the rear view mirror? I thought it was used below the mirror like a sunscreen used while parking. Does someone have a picture of what this should look like?

    MCU2 Upgrade Audio EQ Balancing - Coming From MCU1

    hmm - my car, with premium sound, has been like this since I got it from the factory in 2018. never occurred to me something was broken because when fader is centered it sounds good

    Turn Signal Fault

    I'm glad I'm not the only person with this problem. If I turn them manually to "off" and then wait a few minutes, then back to "auto", they seem to stay off. Also, a scroll wheel reset seems to fix the problem. But its intermittent - I'd say every 10th drive.

    MCU2 Upgrade Audio EQ Balancing - Coming From MCU1

    I have this issue even with MCU1. What I realized is that when you slide the fader all the way to the rear, its only driving the two speakers that are in the tailgate, which have no bass. If you put the fader halfway between center and rear, you'll drive the rear speakers in the doors and the...

    FSD Upgrade Installation

    I paid for it years ago and when in for service they just did it without asking me or me asking them. Got the car back and just suddenly had FSD computer.

    Green Light Chime

    Just to jump in here, my Subaru legacy, mind you from 2015, had a green light chime.

    A/C issue and possibly defogging issues

    We have the opposite problem - it uses the AC too often. When I used to live in Boston it would put the AC on if it was any temperature warmer than 35F. I would always manually turn it off.

    Key not in car

    I had this same issue in our 2020 MX. Called Road Side Assistance via the app. Was contacted within minutes and they did something remotely that fixed the problem. Hasn't re-emerged since

    Charging issue. 1/mi range per hour

    your turn signals will always work even if mcu is dead. You just won’t hear the clicking sound. They are wired directly to the relay and bypass the MCU. You may not “hear” them blinking but they are

    AC Works, Mostly

    I don’t understand when people say a hot battery can steal AC. I literally understand the concept, but I’ve super charged I’m 113 F weather from 10% to 80% multiple times on long trips with both front and rear AC blasting in my wife’s X and the car was cool as a cucumber. I don’t think reduction...

    Tesla infotainment system upgradeable from MCU1 to MCU2

    despite paying for xm every month, I have yet to use anything except streaming audio. So for me its a win.

    Tesla infotainment system upgradeable from MCU1 to MCU2

    seems like a lot of negativity on this upgrade, despite the fact that this is literally what 2/3 of this forum have been complaining for. I've excited at least. I was talked out of buying an MCU2 75d for an inventory MCU1 100d. I don't regret that decision because I'd still choose the larger...

    2020.4

    To all those saying you can’t make the stop sign of red light warning go off, I can confirm that it does go off, REALLY late. For me it basically went off so close to the stop line that with brakes to the floor I went over the line quite a bit. And I reacted immediately. unfortunately this was...

    2020.4.1

    Two negative things I’m experiencing with this update: 1) autopilot is struggling around turns on the highway - often goes very wide in a turn and drifts over the lane, then over corrects too far the other way, and kind of ping pongs trying to find center. I can’t use it anymore. 2) the voice...

    100k miles in a facelift Model S

    I'm confused about the amount of energy used to go 100,000 miles. 31,464kwh * $0.30/kw= $9,439 (100,000 / 30mpg)*$3.59/gallon = $11,966 So driving an electric car saved you only $2,500 over a gasoline car averaged over 100,000 miles? Shouldn't the savings be huge?
