    About that "yoke" steering wheel

    Bottom line is no one should buy one until they have test driven it. It could be an improvement or it could be a total nightmare that you have to use for 4 years. 5 minutes driving it around the Tesla parking lot and parking will let you know immediately if it is a deal breaker or not, and then...

    Refresh truly wider?

    If you just get the long range 2021 S (not plaid), can you use the winter tires/wheels 19" that you have on your 2017 S now?

    MCU2 Upgrade Audio EQ Balancing - Coming From MCU1

    Someone on the official Tesla forum said they had the problem and the service center resolved it by, "disconnecting and reconnecting all the connections". They don't know why it happened or got fixed, but it did for that customer. Anyone else having the issue please ask SC to do this and report...

    Model S phantom drain

    Well now this is making sense. I lose 2% a day in winter and summer ranges from 30F to 90F. And in spring and fall I only lose 1% a day, so it must be the coolant pump working even when not plugged in or being driven. Thanks

    Model S phantom drain

    Thanks for all the feedback. I leave all those options off. It just seems 2% of that huge battery per day is a lot (not like it is an ICE's tiny battery). I don't have cabin overheat on,, but it has been hot lately. Does the car sitting in a garage at 90F not touched run a battery cooling...

    Model S phantom drain

    To owners of 2016-2018 model s 75D's, I have a question. It seems I have a lot of phantom drain, making it more expensive than a gas car since I don't drive much. I have all the energy saving features on, yet I can park my car at 80% charge, never brink a key fob near it over the weekend, and...

    I think I figured out why Model S browser MCU1 will never work

    Ok, update to my thinking guys. So I got in the loaner today to go pick up my car. The browser that worked perfectly in the old no autopilot, no fsd, no dashcam, no rtt, mcu1 car now doesn't work at all either, just like my newer car. So just sitting overnight somehow killed the browser. So I...

    I think I figured out why Model S browser MCU1 will never work

    whitex, From what I've read the emmc usually fails after 4 years or longer depending on mileage. My car is only 2 1/2 years old and very low mileage. Really doubt the emmc is failing. Guess if it fails in the next 1 1/2 years I get a new one under warranty. If it fails after that I would just do...

    I think I figured out why Model S browser MCU1 will never work

    No, but it is easy to explain. Each page depending on the content takes about 15 seconds to 2 minutes, as slow as that may be, it is infinately faster than never to 15 minutes which my car does.

    I think I figured out why Model S browser MCU1 will never work

    When I get the car back I will try and turn off real time traffic and dashcam/sentry, though I don't use them and thought sentry is only if you click the icon. But it makes sense since the rental car doesn't have any of those features, it's browser actually works. And no, my emmc chip would not...

    I think I figured out why Model S browser MCU1 will never work

    So here is my story, and someone with more knowledge can correct me if I am wrong, but here goes. I have a 2017 75D w/auto 2.5, FSD, LTE, and MCU1. The browser has NEVER worked. After a reboot it may load one page in like 20 minutes and then never again till reboot. Had multiple techs say it...

    Tesla banned me from purchasing another Tesla after vehicle buyback

    Dude, why don't you just have your wife, partner, mom, ect. buy it for you. They can't ban everyone you know from buying one, only you. I would just have my wife buy it in her name and registration, problem solved.

    Screen has darkening Yellow Band around entire screen

    Does the above posted screen solve the problem, and is it easily replaceable by the average user or needs service? Also I have been building and fixing computers for 30 years. There is NO software fix (other than blocking out the borders and making the screen smaller, which is unnacceptable)...

    Camper, party/tailgate mode questions and cigarette/aux plug in adapters/chargers?

    Excited and getting ready for camper and tailgate modes. Two questions if anyone could answer, especially car buffs/electric engineers. 1)When is the ETA!? 2)I am getting ready and looking into buying cigarette/aux adapters for my gadgets and appliances to use with it. I would like to know...
