    For sale 2014 Model S 60 RWD - Warranty through 06/26

    Hello! We truly love our Model S, but we are thinking about downsizing. I'm listing the car now because I just had the battery tested with very good results, plus there are still more than two years of extended warranty coverage left. So this might be the best time to find it a good home with...

    Oh no! Well, better knowing now than the day of the appointment :)

    The CCS ECU and Combo 1 Harness Retrofit is now free?

    In case it is of any help, this is the box that the ranger left behind, with the part info for the retrofit.

    The CCS ECU and Combo 1 Harness Retrofit is now free?

    This is very helpful! It would be interesting to hear from somebody with an S/X who did it recently and had to pay. Otherwise, I am inclined to believe that they have made it free, but did not announce it. After all, all other brands are offering the NACS adapters at no cost, and Tesla has...

    The CCS ECU and Combo 1 Harness Retrofit is now free?

    They did not give me a number, the Tesla representative over the phone was just going through the list. I recommend opening a service request and when then call you, ask them to list all the available bulletins for your VIN.

    For sale Radio Flyer Tesla Model S

    I am selling this Radio Flyer Tesla Model S. I got it from a fellow forum member a little over a year ago. The battery was dead back then, and I replaced it with a new one. Now it works flawlessly, but our kid is soon going to outgrow it. The battery has only gone through a couple of cycles (it...

    How many miles on original battery ?

    I had my MS 60 with 97K tested yesterday for a potential Jalopnik piece on EV battery degradation. They confirmed only about 12% range loss.

    The CCS ECU and Combo 1 Harness Retrofit is now free?

    No specific part number. I opened a service request for a possible battery enclosure bulletin. They called back to tell me that this was not a bulletin in the US and offered to give me the list of all bulletins for my vehicle. One of them was the CCS ECU and Combo 1 Harness Retrofit. I asked...

    I would not be totally shocked if they came back knocking, although they already had plenty of time to do so. I would update this thread if that is the case.

    The CCS ECU and Combo 1 Harness Retrofit is now free?

    So the ranger came, did the upgrade... and even gave me the CCS Adapter. All at no cost! I asked him if there was a particular requirement to get this done for free, and he said nobody had told him anything and was as surprised as me when he saw that there was no charge. So maybe this was some...

    Wow! Southern California would be great. Los Angeles would be ideal, but San Diego would do.

    Vendor Upgrade your Model S/X at 057 Tech - More range, more power!

    There are still no options to upgrade a battery pack on the West Coast? Not planning it on doing it any time soon, but it would be great to have somebody in my radar now that my Model S is out of warranty.

    I called Tesla about a possible bulletin on my 2014 Model S 60. It turned out that the bulletin I was calling about does not exist in the US, but the Tesla representative was very thorough and gave me the complete list of bulletins for my car. Some of them are fixes required only in case of...

    Stitch-on steering wheel cover review

    Good question... My S does not have heated steering wheel. I would assume the heat should still work, since it adds a layer of leather but it is not all that thick.

    Recommendation for a detailer in the Culver City / Los Angeles area to buff out a scratch?

    Yes! I took it to a detailer, but the scratch was too deep. So I ended up using a mobile paint specialist with Tesla experience. He did a very good job, all in our garage. New Way Mobile Auto Paint New Way Mobile Auto Paint - Los Angeles, CA

    Unfortunately I did not come across any kits for the newer steering wheel style. Maybe they are not available yet because it is somewhat recent... Hopefully it is just a matter of time.

    Stitch-on steering wheel cover review

    I have installed a stitch-on leather cover on my '14 Model S's steering wheel. I did some digging beforehand, but I could not find much info. So here is my review, in case it helps others. The steering wheel on my Model S was still in very good shape, but I always found it to be too shiny and...

    Across the USA for battery upgrade

    Any plans of opening a second shop closer to the West Coast? A battery upgrade sounds more and more appealing as newer Tesla models don't hit the spot as much as my 2014 MS does. But traveling cross country on a 60 (or shipping it) just might be too much...

    Hello! Does anybody have any recommendations for electricians with level 2 charger experience in the Los Angeles area? After 8 years, our Bosh level 2 home charger is starting to misbehave. When I charge at full power (40A) it trips the circuit breaker at random. I have to lower the power to...

    WTB: Model S Car Cover (for indoor use)

    Hey! Thanks for reaching out! Sorry for the delay, I did not see your message until today. Yeah, it is probably an overkill, but could you tell me what brand is it so I can check it out? I am looking for an indoor one because my garage is rather tight and outdoor covers tend to be rather heavy...

    WTB: Model S Car Cover (for indoor use)

    Hi! I am looking to by a Model S car cover. Ideally with an open for the charging port, like the one sold by Abstract Ocean. It is for indoor use, so it does not need as heavy. I have tried a couple of covers from Amazon, but they don't fit right... Thanks!

    Recommendation for a detailer in the Culver City / Los Angeles area to buff out a scratch?

    My Model S was mercilessly attacked by a tumbleweed, of all things. It left an unsightly scratch on the front corner of the car, and I am hoping that a good detailer can buff it out. Anybody has any recommendations? Thanks!

    A bunch of Faraday Future FF 91s out in the wild

    I was driving down the 405 this afternoon and suddenly I found myself surrounded by a flock of… Faraday Future FF 91s. At least four. It seems that FF might still be in business. The most remarkable thing is how stale their styling has become since the prototype was announced. They blend so...

    General chit-chat in "For Sale" threads

    I went to check it out in person and it is actually not that bad. A big trim panel in the trunk is hanging and the driver’s seatbelt is a bit frayed, but I was expecting worse for an early unit. I would bet lunch that the owner was/is in this forum. In addition to being an early reservation...

    Hi there! This is a bit of a feeler, just to gauge interest. We may have to sell our 2014 BMW i3 BEV Mega. It looks and works great, but our commute might change. If that is the case we will probably need a car with more range. We bought this car 4 years ago and we are the second owners. We had...

If I am reading the VIN correctly, this car is pretty much from the first week of production. And yet, it is listed as a standard range? Am I wrong, or the standard range M3 did...

    19" OEM wheels for 2012-2020 Model S

    Impressions on Taptes seat cover for Model S original Gen 1 seats

    Airbags deploy with a rather powerful explosion. My assumption is that since these covers don't wrap around the back of the seat, the force of the airbag exploding is enough to push the edge of the cover as the airbag deploys. Meaning, the cover will likely move rather than constraining the...

    Impressions on Taptes seat cover for Model S original Gen 1 seats

    Taptes says that they do not interfere with the airbag. Just my two cents, but I think that the lack of tag might be because they don't cover the back of the seat. It is not like there is an opening for the airbag, it looks like the airbag would push from behind the side upon deployment rater...

    My Tesla app was showing somebody else's solar system

    It is not that they dismissed me, they did not seem to understand how I could be having an issue if my system was working. So I had to explain the situation a few times.
