    Coolant Reservoir Empty

    I just noticed that my coolant overflow reservoir is empty. I don't know how long it's been like this? The car hadn't been driven for seven or eight years until last month when I put twenty some miles on it. I've never seen coolant leak from the car. Any idea where it's gone? Is it ok to use any...

    Broken Windshield Wiper Arm

    Was the car still under warranty? How long ago was this? I was under the impression that Tesla had almost nothing to do with the original Roadsters anymore? Thank you!

    Broken Windshield Wiper Arm

    I need a new windshield "Wiper Arm." I read somewhere that our windshields are the same as the Lotus which leads me to believe that the wiper arm should also be from the Lotus? I found the part at lotuspartsonline.com for about $96 including tax and shipping. Any suggestions...

    What is my Roadster worth?

    I'll work on getting some pictures. The car is cleaning up very nicely. I have been working on it every day for more than two weeks. The headlights have cleaned up very well, (I'm still working on them). The paint is also coming along. If it wasn't for the faded carbon bits, I wouldn't be...

    PEM Cover Removal Questions

    I would like to remove the cover of the PEM on my Roadster #107. The reason being that I want to paint it. Any words of warning? Suggestions?

    Wheel Center Cap Options For Roadster

    Yes, I've been a Pantera owner since 1997. I have one that I want to get back to work on as soon as I sell my Roadster.

    Yeah, you didn't need to be fighting with the yoke at that moment! Damn, that could have gone so much worse!

    Thank you! It would have been nice if they used something that wouldn't have rusted.

    Rusted Clips on AC Fan Blades

    I'm cleaning up my old Roadster #107 and both of the AC fans have a couple of rusted clips on them. I'm wondering what purpose they serve and if they need to be there?

    What is my Roadster worth?

    Possibly? I guess it depends on what the buyer of the car wants? I'll kick it around but I'd like to keep it simple. The car is in my way and keeping me from starting on another project. I'll keep you in mind!

    Work in progress: stalks on 2021 Model S. (and optional round-y wheel)

    Rhuber, I'm sure you're busy but I for one am "really" looking forward to your instructional video or videos on the yoke to steering wheel conversion. I drove a car today with a steering wheel and blinkers on a stalk and realized how much I took those wonderful things for granted! I can't wait...

    Does 12mm seem to be the ideal size? If you had to it again would you go larger or smaller?

    What is my Roadster worth?

    FWIW I took the car for a ten mile test drive around town and it did fine. Well, except for the fact that before I left it refused to go into gear while showing "Fault." I turned the key off and removed it from the ignition, tried again and it fired right up! It has done this before so I would...

    What is my Roadster worth?

    Thank you, I appreciate the input! Historically with classic cars, the rule of thumb was that you would only get about fifty cents on the dollar for money you invested in fixing up/restoring a car. Is the market so hot for these things that you could actually make money by fixing them up?

    Work in progress: stalks on 2021 Model S. (and optional round-y wheel)

    Now that you mention it, I realize my horn button doesn't get much use so it wouldn't be likely to come off any time soon. I am also thinking about putting one on the high beam button which does get a lot of use. Thank you!

    What is my Roadster worth?

    I should have added that the car has the silver forged wheels on it. I also have a set of the black forged wheels for it.

    What is my Roadster worth?

    It's time to finally sell my 2008 Roadster. It has 37, 671 miles on it. The color is Racing Green with saddle interior and green hardtop. It includes the optional sound deadening package and upgraded suspension. Some of the exterior pieces are clear coated bare carbon fiber. That's the good...

    Selling Checklist (and Advice) Needed

    "My last decision if figuring out whether to release the car through Tesla.com when they pick up the vehicle or wait until they send me the money as I would still be able to track though the app in case something happens." I'm wondering the same thing? I'm guessing I might have more to lose by...

    Selling Checklist (and Advice) Needed

    Thank you! If you haven't already fully committed to Vroom you might want to rethink the choice if you are in any hurry to sell the car. I haven't been in a big rush and had other things I needed to get done first but, I've been waiting a month for them to pick up the car. I finally left a phone...

    Selling Checklist (and Advice) Needed

    I'm in the process of selling my 2016.5 Model S P100D that I bought new, to Vroom. I want to make sure I don't screw this up! I am not a techie. I got my first smartphone this year as a gift! <grin> The car includes "free unlimited supercharging." IIRC it also includes free lifetime...

    2022 Model S Won't Connect to Wi-Fi Where 2016 Would

    I followed your instructions and still no luck. I hooked up the new Wi-Fi extender and finally made my connection from the new car to my router. I think it took me at least two or three hours to get the extender working. Nothing like being an old, non techie in a "technical" world. Fortunately...

    2022 Model S Won't Connect to Wi-Fi Where 2016 Would

    "I'd delete any existing connections in WiFi in your car" I'm not sure what that means? I am "not" a techie. <grin> I did the reboot, I think? I pressed both scroll wheels until the screens went dark and came back to life. No improvement after that. I am able to connect to wifi using my phone...

    2022 Model S Won't Connect to Wi-Fi Where 2016 Would

    I only saw my router once briefly, last night after many attempts. I just went out and tried it again during day light and saw a different router, only one, and just briefly. A day or two after I got the car, it was telling me it was time for an update. I started the update but I saw the next...

    2022 Model S Won't Connect to Wi-Fi Where 2016 Would

    I'm not able to connect to my home's wi-fi from my new model S. I park in front of my house where I have access to my neighbors wi-fi on both sides of me. I've had no trouble with my 2016 Model S getting updates. Has something changed in the newer cars? It looks like I need a wifi range...

    2016 Charge Cable Won't Open Charge Port Door on 2022 Model S

    I spoke to someone at Tesla today that seemed to know what he was talking about? Apparently I wasn't doing anything wrong, it's just the way it is. The new cable was designed to operate the new and old cars apparently but the old one wasn't necessarily designed to operate future vehicles. This...

    2016 Charge Cable Won't Open Charge Port Door on 2022 Model S

    I just bought a new Model S Plaid and am selling my 2016.5 Model P100D. The old charging cable charges to 40 amps as opposed to the new cable's 32 amps. I don't want to give up the 40 amp capability of the old cable so I figured I would keep the old cable and send the new cable with the old...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    FWIW I have no problem with the steering wheel blocking my view of either screen in my 2016 Model S. I'm about 6' or 6'1 with a long torso. I was kind of excited about the yoke. It seemed kind of racy to me and I like the look. I went out and drove my car while imagining it with the yoke and it...
