    Hawaii - Firmware 8.1

    I figured we could use a thread to update little things we see in 8.1 that might be small but useful. I guess I could have created this thread earlier, but never late than... Of course it applies every where, but to make sure my fellow Hawaii owners see it, I added Hawaii. I'm now on 17.26.76...

    Maui Recommended Detailer

    Can anyone recommend a great detailer for my 2016 MS 75D on Maui? My condo lot is open (uncovered), near the ocean. I use an excellent Tesla car cover about half the time but would still like a good annual protective wax job. Recommendations?

    Oahu - No TACC disabled alert in zipper lane issue

    This is for those who take the zipper lane to town. I've always had issues with TACC disabling around the Pearl City area for as long as i've had the car. Tesla checked everything and found no issues so I just assumed there's some kind of interference so the cameras/radar isn't reading the...

    OTA Update 17.24.28 on AP1 X

    I received an OTA last night to 17.24.28 on my AP1 X. There's no release notes, and the significant change I noticed this morning is AP is now limited to 40 mph on local roads and highways that were not limited before. Bummer, as no one drives 40 on Kal highway (or any other highway for that...

    Tesla accident in the news

    Fortunately, the Model S' outstanding safety proved itself once again. Glad to hear the driver & passenger are okay. It's unfortunate about the fatality on the part of the other car, but I guess Darwin's law....:( Anyone know these folks? Couple hit in deadly crash urges drivers to slow down...

    How to Improve Trunk Lighting 2 - Hawaii

    McKinley Car Wash

    A neighbor just bought a Model S and loves it (getting one for the wife too!). He typically washes his car at the McKinley car wash, but sees problems with the Tesla because of allowing the car to be left in neutral during the wash and also trusting the car wash employee with doing things right...

    I'm taking delivery of my model s on the big island next month and have been thinking about having the car xpel wrapped.

    Hawaii tire replacement

    I just was notified by the service center that I have about 1,000 miles left on my tires. What has been the consensus here, that it makes the most sense to have the service center replace it, and what is the cost for that? Or has anyone found a good reputable shop that knows Teslas and can...

    Hawaii Model 3

    Here's a video by the Model 3 owner's club that indicates that rear-wheel drive Model 3s will be the initial cars built, to be followed months later by the dual-motor Model 3s. The implication is that those of us in Hawaii who order a rear-wheel drive Model 3 (particularly if you are already a...

    Hawaii Supercharger on new 2017 map

    I was looking at the new 2017 Supercharger map on Tesla's site and there appears to be a future Supercharger in Hawaii. I guess the pin is on Oahu, likely for Honolulu owners that can't get chargers installed by their property managers or associations.
