    Turning angle disabeling regen?

    Hi Together Just wanted to confirm if this is a normal behaviour of the Roadster: When turning at a very tight corner (tight hairpin curve) where you go to a max turning point the regen turns off...as soon you go straighter again everythings back to normal. Is this a normal thing? many thanks...

    Roadster featured in Cyber Rodeo

    ...not forgotten...but I'm still wondering why they are not playing the heritage card on how they got there where they are on their official website?...not 1 old roadster, no story, nothing... (they keep telling it on stage,...)

    Roadster Headlight improvement options?

    I'm driving my Roadster as a daily driver and therefore also in Swiss winter...and sometimes it is scary dark as f***!

    Wrong Power declaration by TESLA leads to re-payable Tax??!!

    ...this is different from one law to another . As both are on the COC document (40kW continous) and 225kW peak...the relevant has to be written in the papers. In Switzerland this even differs from Region to Region (but that's Switzerland)...and I just happen to live in a very backward Region of...

    Wrong Power declaration by TESLA leads to re-payable Tax??!!

    -->Here's the final outcome: ...TESLA did nothing wrong. The previous owner's vehicle registration office did. ...according to the COC the max power is 225kW...and not 40kW ...and I get to pay the previous tax :-( Still would never change my drive back to fossil. (maybe not even a newer EV?)...

    Wrong Power declaration by TESLA leads to re-payable Tax??!!

    Odometer jumping a dial? 999-->001

    Hi together Today while driving I reached 160'999km...and after driving a bit further I thought why isn't it reaching 161'000km...but then a few meters further it jumped directly to 161'001km....??? Have you experienced a similar behaviour? best regards Thomas

    How to change Clock date?

    Owner change & [email protected]

    I have a bit the same feeling and I'm hesitant to bring the Roadster to the SC...due how much time they can spare for such an old thing?...now with all the Model 3's coming in?...I assume it will be just replacing and $$$ (I still hope I'm wrong)

    Owner change & [email protected]

    As it's not 2 months past yet (but close)...I'll just wait and see. And for the time being the former owner sends me the info's through whatsapp...but it would be nice to get and request the service info's directly. (I see no other use for the app) ...but calling them is just too painful During...

    A 30 minute (video) technical deep dive of the Roadster

    Is there any company doing similar in Europe?
  32. thomas.rueesch

    Owner change & [email protected]

    I wonder what's the issue or what's holding them back...or is there just this 1 poor person @tesla having to do these owner changes globaly...with a red stapler

    VMS/PEM key mismatch

    Many thanks. So the car is telling me I'm getting to old? ;-) or should get some yoga classes to put the Roadster on quicker?

    VMS/PEM key mismatch

    Hi together What is the reason for the Error message: VMS/PEM key mismatch ID:888 If you press the middle button of the key it goes away...but it occurs now & then and I would loke to know the source problem of this and if it is solvable? many thanks for your responses. Thomas

    Owner change & [email protected]

    Hi Hopefully you can tell me that this is normal?...that after sending the owner change to [email protected]... ...that it takes more than a month (still not done) to get an account with your car with all the service access, messages etc. still enjoying the car every minute :-)

    Road noise at highway speeds coming from wheel wells

    Couldn't this be a firmware upgrade option? Given that the Model S has an inside microphone and speakers the sound could maybe be filtered out/addjusted actively?

    Hi Together As I've seen the Model S in Zurich...I asked the Sales guy when the test drives will start as a non reservation holder. He said that the test drives will start something round february 2013 for the reservation holders and the best oportunity is to get an invitation from a...

    Too much chrome

    My current car is silver with chrome surroundings and silver wheels...I've had it for a few years and still like the look of it. I think I would just go on and do exactly the same with the Model S.

    What makes Model S a luxury car?

    Thanks Volker If the Model S can hold the Level of a BMW5...then I'll be a very happy man. Before seeing the Model S...once the first Series produced cars reach europe...I'll go check out the BMW first (just to touch, sit and look) can't hardly wait.

    What makes Model S a luxury car?

    Quality reference? [moderator note: merged from another thread - b.] Hi I was wondering do you have a quality reference (car) for the Model S? Do you or what cars do look at to get the touch&feel of quality for the Model S? (not talking maintenance, just the exterior, interior, materials...

    REAL interior shots

    Hi Larry Thanks for the answer, but just as offering the 85kWh for a standard Model S, why block customer choices. And IMHO a techie-product as the TESLA Model S is...wood just doesn't fit for me...leaving only piano black. Thomas

    REAL interior shots

    I would pay for carbon fiber in a standard Model S...why not? Brushed aluminium would also be nice. Until now only the piano black is the acceptable choice for me in a Standard Model S
