Performance

Hello, I am seeking information as to how the EPB system works exactly in these cars. I would like to retrofit these calipers onto another vehicle, which, due to poor design properties have high failure ratings and an aftermarket supply that is even worse. I plan to use these in lieu of the...

i was told by my SVC to do a hard reset of my MCU and Instrument Cluster all the way to the grey Tesla T weekly to try and help minimize issues. For the past two or three weeks when I reboot the MCU everything comes back up except for the climate system. I have to manually turn it back on. I...

Hi, i`ve got an Tesla S 75D 2017 modell and i was wondering how i can adjust and set the power to the back wheels. I`ve heard that you can adjust how much power the front and rear wheels have. I terms of horsepower or something i think. Is this a legit thing? Cant find it anywhere on the internet.

i wasn’t sure if this was happening or not. Over the last few weeks it seemed as if I’d set my temp on my tesla app to one temp and when I got in the car it was something completely different. I have been having a lot of weird electrical problems but tonight just confirmed the temp change. I...

Pearl White 2012 P85 with 60K miles in excellent condition and fully loaded has 8 years 100000 miles optional Tesla Extended Warranty and 8 Years 100000 miles prepaid maintenance. This enables the car to have a more comprehensive & longer warranty than a comparable used CPO purchased from Tesla...

i was just curious if any TMC members have purchased the 20” TST wheels from TSportline. What has the impact on range been? Any noticeable difference in performance? What is your overall opinion of the wheel? I’m mostly interested in hearing about the impact on range. I really like the 22”s from...

@wk057 has done an amazing job showing the real energy in the various packs. But when you use them against rated miles, they don't make contiguous sense: 75 pack: 72.6 usable. 237 rated range, so 306 wh/mi 90 pack: 81.8 usable. 265 rated range, so 309 wh/mi (weighs a bit more, makes sense) 100...

I took delivery of my 3 on Monday. It’s apparently the 10th black Model 3 in New Jersey. I’ve been driving a Model S P85D for almost 3 years, so I thought I’d share initial thoughts from that perspective... and probably put together a video comparison. (I’ve also driven a recent P100D, so when I...

After 4 months of engineering it is here! Softer than factory spec for cruising around town but when cornering a secondary spring rate kicks in and it becomes firmer than factory spec. Best of both worlds! We’ve created this dual rate spring with a Formula One spring producer. Available in...

long story short...I now hate my tesla after 8 trips to the SVC for different failures including electrical. I have also had three door handles shear off internally. One other member said he turned off the auto present handles to try and reduce wear and tear on the mechanism. What would...

I was super excited to get my CPO 16 Model S 70D and sang praises to Tesla. However, in my 15 months of ownership and only 47,000 miles on the car I have been to the service center 8 times for three broken door handles (replaced with previous model not the new stronger ones), needing to have...

Greetings! I took delivery of an inventory 100D in November ‘17, vin x216024. I’m hoping that someone can definitively explain to me whether or not my car is capable of the 3.6 second 0-60 times purported by dragtimes here: Tesla updates Model S 100D performance, 0-60 in 3.6 seconds And, if it...

long story short. I own a CPO 16 Model S 70D with about 42,000 on it. In 15 months of ownership I have had three door handles break, had connectivity issue after issue with the radio and phone unit which they upgraded to the 4g LTE after nine months which solved about 95% of my problems but...

So they say my car is ready for pick up. As much as I like this P90D I'm ready to get my P85 back. Obviously my P85 is not as fast as this one, but I honestly don't think I'll miss the extra torque. Aside doing "launches" which i will admit is a LOT of fun, its really beyond usable for my...

I am a current Model X owner and am a huge Tesla fan. I currently also have a Model 3 reservation that is now configurable, but I'm waiting for additional interior options to come available (I gotta have the white interior - I've loved it in my Model X). I love everything about my Model X except...

Where are you guys? According to the trash bin, the latest post by AR was: After that it seems he's been trying to morse something by his post ratings... I think they are in some kind of Interstellar mode

Hi iedereen, Sinds anderhalf jaar heb ik een 2013 Model S 85 Base model, naar grote tevredenheid, hoewel één dagje P90DL naar meer smaakte. Kort geleden een tweedehands 2015 Model S P90DL gekocht en hoewel het een fantastische auto blijft, valt de performance en rijbereik gek genoeg echt...

On June 23rd, 2017 I picked up my new Tesla Model X. Since then, my vehicle has now been at a service center for a total of 6 times. With each instance, I've dealt with a great deal of inconvenience, of which is extremely unacceptable for a new vehicle purchase of over $120,000. I now turn to...

I'd love to be able to grab all of the metrics / telemetry / etc from my Model S and store them in some time-series db (InfluxDB is just what i'm familiar with; it could be anything). I'm curious if other have taken this on and would be willing to help me out in getting set up. I'm a fairly...

Tesla Model 3 Road Trip This post states ~134 miles/day may be lost in -13F while parking. Can others chime in with their loss numbers and respective outside temperatures? Also, do we know what will happen to the battery in the cold after it's fully drained?

Watching from UK where my range tanks when it heads below 40deg...how on earth do Teslas fair when the mercury hits sub zero? Would love to hear range performance in current East Coast temperatures. Keep safe everybody, btw.

Being I only reserved in earlier December 2017, my place in line shows up as Late 2018, and my situation with my current car has been such that I really wanted to get into a Tesla earlier, especially as I was waiting for a Performance version. With the new year hold backs finally complete and...

A professional driver posted his reactions to the Model 3 on the BMW Car Club of America forum after a day driving it on a closed course. His comments echo those of many of the S/X/Roadster owners who are now early Model 3 owners, but I thought his perspective was interesting given his lack of...

Hi All, I hope to pick the brains of some of the more knowledgable members here to get a better understanding of how the MS battery pack has evolved from 2012 to now My understanding is as follows tesla has always offered 2 packs. A small 350v pack and a larger 400 volt pack the small pack...

I have a Model S 75D that's been "unlocked". The other day I was cruising at 80 MPH and I stepped down on the accelerator and I noticed that the car accelerated from that point very slowly. My battery was at least 3/4 full and the air temperature was about 65 F. Acceleration at lower speeds is...

I can see electrified transport disrupt the repair/parts business. Creates refurbished interiors and battery upgrade businesses - but after 10 years? or even 20 or 30?? (my 900 Saab 27 years old). Seems too far into the future to predict. How about "cabs"? Take a look back 1922-1982 Checker...

I recently stumbled upon, and was fortunate enough to buy, a CPO P85DL Late march 2015 build. In my humble opinion, and after doing as much research as possible, I determined that this is the Ultimate CPO model S, at least for the performance enthusiast. I make this argument based upon the...

5 Year Ownership Experience (Moderator’s move this thread if already exists, please). As 2017 rolls to close, many of us have now experienced five years of ownership of a single Tesla. This is perhaps the key metric for all cars and car companies: the five your ownership experience...

I went to pick up my car from the Fremont Tesla SC today after they gave up on my rattle issue blaming it on the steering rack design flaw. I waited there for about 90 minutes to pick up my car because first they couldn't find my key, then after acknowledging they lost my key, they tried to...

So I finally pulled the trigger earlier this week and made a deposit on a late CPO 2014 P85D. I was told that the anticipated delivery date is by the end of the month. Based on some of the horrific delivery stories on this forum, receiving my vehicle this month seem very far fetched. Especially...

Set of 4 Original Equipment 21-inch Tesla Turbine wheels (21x8.5J Part Number 6005868-00-D/6005868-01-D) from a 2013 Tesla Model S P85. Less than 10,000 miles driven on tires and wheels. Wheels will fit on any Model S from model years 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 or 2017. Wheels are from...

I’ve seen it discussed that charging will warm the battery up to allow for better temperatures for winter charging. Also I’ve read that charging before you drive can help you preheat the pack. But is it possible to keep the pack warm all the time by keeping the charge rate around 10A~...

I am looking to buy a CPO S soon (once there's actually inventory added). Am debating which car to get, as I saw a video on youtube that showed the regular S 85 has a significant delay and is slow to start when compared to P85 or even 85D. Do I have to push up my budget and get a P85D to get an...

Elon says that 0-60 in 1.9 is the “base performance” model. Jesus. Elon Musk on Twitter

Current model s p100d owners, will your next car purchase be a next generation model s p100d/p130d or the new 2020 Tesla roadster announced today at the semi truck event?

A couple of issues came to mind when I heard Elon make that “over 250mph” top speed claim for the new Roadster: 1) I don’t see how that speed can be achieved without at least a 2-speed gearbox (or maybe 3-speed). Roadster fans know that way back in 2008 the Roadster debuted with a 2-speed Borg...

After unveiling the Tesla Semi, CEO Elon Musk surprised the crowd with a look at the fastest production car ever made – the second generation Roadster. Musk said the base model of the sports car will hit 60 mph in 1.9 seconds, making it the first production vehicle to clock in at under two...

I Ordered Model X 75D two weeks ago, waiting for late December delivery. But been thinking of switching my order to 100D. I would receive 100D sooner, first week of December. Only thing that is stopping me is the higher price haha. I just dont know if i can justify it, new uncorked 75D is now...

Hey everyone, yesterday I posted a thread asking for feedback on whether I should go with a Model S or Model X. After reading all of your replies and test driving both models again, I chose the Model S 100D. I wanted to thank all of you for the valuable feedback, it really gave me peace of mind...

Is there a resource that shares the gear ratio of each motor on the dual motor Model S? I'm wondering if the front motor has a longer ratio. I believe if it did it would help with high end speed and efficiency/range.

With these upgrades happening to non performance Teslas, what is going to happen to those of us who opted for the performance versions? We know Ludicrous is just a software unlock, so will it be made available? It's not even a purchase upgrade currently. It doesn't seem right that those of...

The Tesla Model S 100D is faster than advertised, according to a test from drag racing site DragTimes. A test of a new Tesla Model S 100D produced a 0-60 mph time of 3.6 seconds, nearly 15 percent quicker than the spec provided by Tesla. The online configurator for a Model S says the 335-mile...

Hi everyone! This is only my second post but I feel it will be very informative for anyone looking to add aftermarket wheels to their MS! As many of you know there is an aftermarket company that specializes in Tesla performance/ aftermarket products called Unplugged Performance. While all of...
