    Non-existent Customer Service

    To be fair, they came out there without notice, within ten minutes otherwise my dent repair guy was going to leave. While it's nice they did that, they definitely have issues. They left the car in a worse condition than it was and now I have to wait to get more parts to repair issues. My post...

    Where to source replacement badge / emblem?

    When I got mine, I believe it was $25 for any of them

    Non-existent Customer Service

    I think it all depends. I had a mobile service appointment last week. It was set up quickly and easily. They damaged my door replacing the sensor. They scheduled another repair for today. Repair guy couldn't get behind the door sensor to fix the dent. I just texted the person who was in charge...

    Very loud fan noise from frunk area with AC on...

    I am having mobile service come out to replace a bad sensor in my passenger FWD with phantom object issues. They are also going to look at the AC, though I haven't heard the jet engine recently so I'm not sure they'll be able to do anything they cannot reproduce. I'll let you know.

    Very loud fan noise from frunk area with AC on...

    My 75D sounds like a jet engine in Texas heat. I think it's pretty embarrassing to be so loud, but I wasn't aware they'd do anything to fix it. Sounds like it's a crap shoot to see if they will fix the issue or not. Guess I can always ask since I have the occasional phantom object issue with my...

    How to really align falcon doors?

    Apparently it's really hard to align. I'm not confident that I'd be able to do a better job than them. There are two points of alignment that need to be adjusted. One of them is fairly trivial, which is how far "in" (towards the body) the door folds. The second one seems to be harder but I don't...

    MX won't wake after update...help

    If you look closely at the picture, all four wheels are off the ground. Because the car is AWD, your can't just leave it in neutral with 2 wheels touching the ground and making them spin. In the picture, it doesn't seem to be the case that anything is touching

    That picture makes me sad :( I hope they resolve your issue quickly and you get your car back soon!

    XPEL Prime XR Plus vs Prime XR vs Llumar stratos

    $1000 for full one piece windshield and all windows is a good deal. I think I paid around $1200 or $1300 for stratos total.

    Vendor Tesla Model X Flow Forged Wheels - Model TSS Available in 20" & 22"

    Do you have pictures of matte black on your car by any chance?

    Vendor Tesla Model X Flow Forged Wheels - Model TSS Available in 20" & 22"

    @Tsportline Do all of pictures that you are sharing in the post have the satin black lugnuts? Trying to figure out if I should buy those with the wheels or if the stock ones are better with space gray.

    232 Wh/mi. I’m obsessed.

    Car is too fun to not floor it as often as I can without getting into trouble. I don't care about efficiency. I drive it like a bat out of hell as long as I know I won't get a ticket :P

    Adjusting Rear Trunk Opening Height

    I had asked this question before purchasing one myself. My understanding is that you can only set one height for the car. So if you set it to be lower than max height, it will always only open to that height. It is not possible to set two different heights, so you're kind of stuck picking the...

    Model X : Need help with Decision

    See that's interesting. For all the kinks that haven't been worked out, the car is just too good to not have NOW. I'll get another one if 3-4 years if it's that much more amazing, but I can't imagine life without my X ... no joke.

    Model X : Need help with Decision

    I got a 75D. I don't regret it vs. the 100. I only drive around town w/ the long trip maybe once a year and supercharging works just fine in that case. Spending $12,200 for once a year use did not seem wise to me. That being said, I wish I bought a P100D instead. But too late for that :P

    Vendor Tesla Model X Flow Forged Wheels - Model TSS Available in 20" & 22"

    Pretty close to pulling the trigger on these. I think I like the space grey better as it gives the car a little more depth/variance with color. Black is nice because you can't really tell how small/large the wheels are because it blends into the sidewalls, but I'm thinking grey is still better...

    Wrap or not ?

    I did a full suntek wrap. I went back and forth. I had a post a while back waffling back and forth about whether or not to do it. In the end, I don't miss the money. I don't know if I NEED the wrap, but there are tons of chips already in the wrap from 8 months of driving. There's small peace of...

    Vendor Tesla Model X Flow Forged Wheels - Model TSS Available in 20" & 22"

    Can you tell me if this is matte black or gloss black? Wheels are growing on me the more I look at them. Are those 20s or 22s on this car in the pic? Having a heck of a time picking a color too ... they all look good in different ways. Nice options for finish on this one! @Tsportline do you at...

    Cubby Drawer

    Some older thread had a picture of the evamped one, and it looks like there's a decent gap on the left side of the cubby after install. Anyone know if that has been fixed, or if that gap is still there?

    Had my car for 8 months, thoughts

    :D:D:D You know, if I could do it all over again, I would get the pearl white exterior w/ my interior combo, so you have the perfect combination! I love blue, but if I neglect washing it, it looks pretty bad :p Pearl white was #2 for me, and there were so many of them around town that I opted...

    Had my car for 8 months, thoughts

    Congrats on your order! Yes, I had set my doors to always open fully in this location. There is a difference, btw on the override behavior. If you set the car to always override at a given location, it will still stop when the sensors detect something withing proximity without first bumping...

    Had my car for 8 months, thoughts

    yeah I don’t do a lot of traveling out of Austin. That being said, I’ve supercharged here in town a couple of times to test things out or for an experience with the kids, but not out of necessity.

    Had my car for 8 months, thoughts

    Actually it wasn't that. It literally threw faults and I get steering assist errors, brake errors, etc. It has something to do with some kind of loose connection that can be in the X (the SC tech said there multiple reports of this same type of issue). I posted more in this thread about the...

    It’s been a while since I’ve posted as I’ve been busy with kids, work, life and you know ... being busy driving the car :) Apart from the initial defects that I noticed that they (mostly) addressed and a few other issues, it has been great so far. After picking up my vehicle, two issues popped...

    Why is my car so slow to wake up?

    You're not the only one. I see this frequently nowadays too, but it's not 2 minutes, more like 10 - 15 seconds. It's not every time though, so I haven't really figured it out.

    2017 MX Shuts Down dangerously on Expressway–I'm losing faith in Tesla and my car

    It does, but the SC said that it's been documented across at least several vehicles, so it must not just be me. Shame there's some issue with the wiring there, but at least it's avoidable.

    Elon Canning Referral Program!

    Hah! I tried to get my wife a 3, but she didn't bite. It wouldn't work anyway. I'd have to have someone take delivery by the end of the month, have them credit my account and redeem the reward. The dream is dead :( May have to go with the t sportline 20" turbines instead

    My 2018 MX 75D - Issues at delivery

    A couple of the pictures bother me. Main one is actually the gap between your front and rear doors where I can actually see through to the tesla sticker behind it. Some of the other things are definitely NOT "within spec" but don't bother me as much. I had a handful of issues too. For the most...

    2017 MX Shuts Down dangerously on Expressway–I'm losing faith in Tesla and my car

    To be fair, the steering wheel is fine. it's the steering column behind the wheel that has the issue. You can rub your steering wheel all you want :P

    My delivery SUCKED and how I feel 1 month later...

    This is very true. I was on here all the time before I got my car. But life gets in the way of constantly coming back when you have better things to do ... like drive your tesla :P My experience wasn't perfect, check my delivery thread. I still would do it again in a heartbeat. Once you have it...

    2017 MX Shuts Down dangerously on Expressway–I'm losing faith in Tesla and my car

    Don't apply pressure to the steering column while driving :P I was wiping things down with a cloth while I was stuck in traffic and that's how it all happened to begin with. It was immediate feedback as soon as I had applied light pressure to the area.

    When will Tesla create luxury COMFORTABLE seats?

    I personally think the X has incredibly comfortable seats. I'm 5'9" and about 160 lbs so maybe I'm a bit small compared to some others. I think they're more comfortable than the two lexuses I've owned before that. They might not be as comfortable as the mercedes S-class, but I'm also okay with...

    2017 MX Shuts Down dangerously on Expressway–I'm losing faith in Tesla and my car

    So I went to the SC to have the issue looked at. I spoke with a drive tech for a bit and they went to do more research. In the end, they said it was documented as a known issue. Basically what can happen is that if you apply pressure to the steering column while the car is on, it can trigger a...

    2017 MX Shuts Down dangerously on Expressway–I'm losing faith in Tesla and my car

    I have my appointment, FINALLY, tomorrow. I'll see if they can pull the logs and see if they can tell me what went wrong. I also have some timestamps of phantom objects that I need them to look at. I wish I told tesla to NOT replace the things they damaged on delivery day. It took four months to...

    2017 MX Shuts Down dangerously on Expressway–I'm losing faith in Tesla and my car

    SC is booked until 1/14, so I won't know for a while. It hasn't happened again, but I haven't tried to touch the area where the steering column is :P I think it was happenstance and maybe electrostatic from the microfiber or some force applied (gentle but still) on the column while the car was...

    2017 MX Shuts Down dangerously on Expressway–I'm losing faith in Tesla and my car

    I had this issue happen with me on my way home from church today. It was just stuck in stop and go. Once at a stop, I was wiping dust off the instrument cluster area, and that's what I saw some steering assist error along with the slew of warnings. I threw the hazards on and tried two different...

    No sound?

    I get this often. Almost every day lately. It started happening after the latest update. Starts off w/ no music, but when I have no turn signal sounds, I know it's time to reboot. Scroll reset takes care of it, but it's annoying that you have to do it.

    Premium Upgrades Package for Old-timers!

    MX randomly wakes up and opens doors

    This has happened to me a few times. Where is your second key fob? I think my second one was too close, and that probably caused the issue. I got a new key fob from the SC (great job on them for getting me one ASAP), and it still happened. I kept the second fob in my office which is only about...

    Any advice/experience with aftermarket accessories?

    I've had these pedals for about two months now. They're amazing. I love them. I don't think you can honestly screw up aluminum pedals, so as long as the company stands by their product, you should be fine. It was a little bit of a hassle to install them, but I'm also a perfectionist. Your...

    V9: where is rear heated seats and heated steering wheel?

    He means the fan button. Click on the fan button to open up your "auto air" controls. There's a tab switcher to the far left of that button that takes you to the cold weather controls.

    FWD put a hole in my garage drywall after upgrading to V9

    I park pretty close to my walls as well in my garage and I haven't noticed anything different with v9. They're just as cautious in terms of opening and the speed, if anything, is a tad slower if it detects an obstacle in the way. Sorry to hear about your situation. I have not seen this before.

    Just wanted to say that my RPMTesla center console storage shelf had one issue over about a month of owning it. The neoprene backing was starting to separate and left a sticky area on the bottom. I emailed RPMTesla and they were very quick with a response. They sent me a new unit and I sent the...
