    Reduced braking after car wash

    I ran into a condition once where there was freezing rain and my car was stopped at a light. The car started sliding sideways from a dead stop due to the slope of the crown of the road. Sometimes there really is nothing you can do.

    White Leather Sig & Founder

    Sig 580 here. I ordered the white leather as it was the only choice other than black which provided a two-tone interior (white and black) rather than three, as the white leather is a very close match to the light colored headliner. I wanted a lighter-colored leather, but thought the tan...

    19" and 21" Tire Wear (informal) Survey

    I'll be impressed when Tesla proactively provides a refund to all Model S owners who ended up paying at a Tesla service center for new tires due to this misalignment. The two rear Continental 21" tires on my Model S wore out at 4680 miles. There was very uneven wear on the tires, with most...

    Firmware 5.8

    I'm also connected to wifi at home (where there's no cell coverage), but I still get a repeated prompt asking me if I want to connect via wifi when I'm away from home. In my case, I think it only happens when there are wifi signals present but no AT&T 3G. What I really want is an additional...

    Air Suspension no longer lowers at highway speeds (FW update v5.8)

    One other thing to be aware of: The installation of release 5.8 appears to reset the existing air suspension setting to the 'normal' height position. In my case, it lowered the car from the 'very high' setting to 'normal', causing the bottom of my car to scrape across a concrete lip at the...

    NHTSA Tire issue reported on Tesla 21 Inch tires

    This is precisely what I was told when my 21" rear tires wore out on the inside edges at 4600 miles. Even when the service center did an alignment and found the rear had significant toe out they still held to this line.

    21 inch tires and replacement after 12-15,000 miles

    I was planning on rotating the Continentals on my 21" wheels around the 5K to 6K mileage point. Only one hitch -- both rear tires are worn through to the steel belts on the inside edges at only 4600 miles. The SC is picking up my car on Tuesday and I'm quite interested in seeing what they find...

    Latest "Finalize your order" date

    I'm #556 and have not received my email either. Can we verify if the "I thought I also saw" report for #562 is real (or not)?

    Gripes about the Beta interior

    +1 Regardless of what some here think, not everyone wants the interior cluttered up with storage bins, bags and cupholders.

    Difference Between Sig, Sig Perf, and Production

    I've seen this mentioned a number of times on the forums, but I've never actually seen a statement from Tesla that this is the case. The Design Studio images appear to show exactly the same shape for the side bolsters in both versions, but just with a different covering material. Can you point...
