    [Tip] How to access your custom Slacker stations on the car

    I upgraded my Slacker account to Plus last night specifically to be able to listen to the custom stations that I spent a lot of time getting dialed in, and was mortified upon logging in to the account from the car to learn that the car doesn't see the custom stations, and there's no officially...

    User interface idea: temporary scroll wheel functions

    Like many reservation holders, I'm watching video reviews with a lot of interest and it seems that one of the most common complaints is the user interface around changing cruise control speed, autopilot follow distance and windscreen wiper settings. A way that Tesla could improve the user...

    Which app should I purchase?

    Looking to purchase an app for the MS. I have an Apple Watch and would love integration with that as well. I see there are a few on the App Store, but they all look relatively the same. Can you guys suggest your favorite? 1. Remote S 2. Keymote 3. Tesla Plus 4. Tesla Toolbox

    Spotify pauses when Android phone is locked or unlocked

    A question for non-US Tesla owners. I have a 2017 MS in Switzerland. We have Spotify here, not Slacker. Let's not open that can of worms here, hey... I have my own Spotify Premium account logged in, not the Tesla one. When I am playing music via Spotify in the car, all is fine. My Samsung...

    iPhone syncing

    Sorry in advance if this has been handled but i searched twice .... My iPhone 8 was syncing fine until about a week ago. Now the calander, missed calls and contacts don’t seem to be recognized I have “forgotten” the device and re synced and I checked the boxes on my phone to all low syncing...

    If you leave your phone inside your car, your car never locks

    I know, it makes sense, otherwise you will be locked out of your car....but you should be aware that this simple mistake (I do it all the time) is leaving your car unlocked.

    Screen bubbles

    on my screen it looks like there is a protective sheet (kinda like phone screen protector). It currently has a few air bubbles which I assume will go away after time. Does anybody notice the screen protector or have bubbles?

    When bad software practices become the norm...

    Tesla just joined Apple, Nest, and many other software developers in my personal hall of shame. How? By introducing a feature in a new software release, and defaulting it to “on”. In Tesla’s case: cabin overheat protection. So, when I returned to LAX after 4 days expecting to have 140 miles...

    Side mirrors stuck in reverse view

    Anyone else observe this glitch?... when changing from reverse to drive, the side mirrors get stuck in the downward facing view. They’re supposed to shift up when you put it into drive. This started for me with the recent software update.

    Force GPS Location Update?

    I took delivery of my Model 3 today. The navigation seems to think I’m on the other side of the country. It’s not stuck... it moves as I drive, only it thinks I’m in Danville, CA while I’m in NJ. I’ve tried rebooting but that didn’t work. Any tricks or thoughts on how to get the navigation to...

    Failure of Traction, Stability, Emergency autobraking, and Cruise Control

    My Model X P90D (AP1, FW version 2017.50.2 3bd9f6d) experienced failure of three safety systems (Traction, Stability, and Emergency Autobraking were disabled) as well as Traffic-Aware Cruise Control within about 15 miles on the road: clear, dry conditions. The TACC went out first, followed by...

    Model S HVAC running for 1+ days due to dead remote access

    Hey all, Anyone experience issues with their car's HVAC after it running continuously for 1 or more days with the new persistent "camper" mode? I turned it on with the remote app and then I lost remote access to the vehicle for some reason (Tesla assistance confirms the car network is offline)...

    Police officer claim I didn't stop. Any data I can retrieve from my model S?

    Just got a fine two days ago. The officer claim I didn't do my stop. But I know very well I did it. I suspect he was not looking attentively, and since I usually accelerate quite fast (recent model S 75D) from stops, he must have seen me going quickly across the intersection. He claimed I...

    Firmware numbers changed

    Anyone else notice that the firmware version numbers have gone back to the way they used to be (without the long string of letters) on the Firmware Upgrade Tracker (Tesla Firmware Upgrade Tracker Web App) Not in the cars (at least not in my S which still has the long version), just on the Tracker.

    Model 3 Traffic Aware Cruise/Autopilot touchscreen controls

    I haven't seen anyone mention this so I thought I would post my observations on the Model 3 TAC/Autopilot touchscreen controls. When the touchscreen shows a speed limit sign, if you tap on the sign in the touchscreen display, the TAC speed will adjust to the speed limit on the sign (plus any...

    Please Tesla - optional speed limiter

    Had my Tessie X for a month now and just love it. Drove Sydney to Melbourne last week to cure my range anxiety. No problems with Superchargers along the way. Seems the people with the most range anxiety are those that don't own a Tesla. To the point.......I would love to have the option of...

    50.12 Bonus -- Normalized "Hold Steering Wheel" Pressure

    Yes!! For the first month we had our Model 3, we practically had to wrench the steering wheel to make the AP nag go away. Half the time, we ended up canceling autopilot by mistake. With 50.12, the gentlest of holds now works, same as on Model S. Ten times better! I'm impressed with how...

    Phone key only works when Model 3 is selected in app

    I've noticed that for the phone key to work, the Model 3 must be selected in the app. If our MS is selected the M3 will not open. I wonder if this is intentional or a bug. First I thought it was a bug...but I imagine that this "feature" makes sense in a scenario where you have multiple M3 in...

    Fan Noise

    Anyone else bothered by the M3's fan noise level and noise signature? It bugs me so much that I turn off climate control till the road noise exceeds and masks the fan noise at highway speeds. "Auto mode" does not ever seem to use less than level 3 fan speed. Level 1 fan speed in "manual" mode is...

    Dash display not turning off

    Periodically my Model X does not seem to shut down. I took the photo 24 hours after I last used the car with one one key about 70 ft away and the other about 25 ft in a metal box. The car does not always do this just sometimes. Anyone else experience this and know why it happens? This photo...

    UI wish list # 9999.... really liking the car!

    Having driven a whole 20 miles in the 3, I find I agree with every comment that says it would be nice to have the map nav instructions on the left side of the map vs right - ideally user selectable. Other than the mirrors and steering wheel adjustment requires tapping the screen, eventually...

    50.12 — Anyone Get Error Message After Installing?

    ”Car Needs Service” Reboot does not clear. Tesla Service Central saw message but could not see any faults. Car drove just fine. BTW, scheduled charging and reduced backup camera contrast are welcome improvements. HD radio still a work in progress ...

    Question about Remote S with Apple Watch

    Hey TMC, So I am interested in getting the Remote S app to control my Tesla with the Apple Watch. Why solely for that purpose? Well, as an avid surfer, I find myself always looking for sneaky spots to put my key. So I have a generation 1 Apple Watch and wanted to know if I can leave my iPhone...

    Trip Meter / Energy Display Discrepancy

    I have noticed this over the years and wonder why the Trip Meter and Energy Display would show different Wh/mi values at exactly the same distance? Anyone know why? I would have assumed the car was measuring data for both displays from the same place :confused:

    Touchscreen broken today

    I've had my Model 3 for about two weeks and everything has been going well with it. However, this morning when I got in my car I noticed the rear-view camera wasn't working as I backed out of my garage, then I noticed the music was stopped, then about 10 seconds later the screen went black.

    Hello to fellow TMC members! I recently put together a quick app/script to enable video support directly on your Tesla browser!

    HVAC blows cold/cool when defroster set to hot?

    50.11 firmware, picked up today and seems like the windshield defrost set to hot was actually not letting it get hot. Will re-test more but curious if others have seen this. If I set it not to defrost it seemed to get hot just fine.

    ESPN Gamecast or similar

    I was on the road during the football games this past weekend and thought I would try to at least follow the scores through the Tesla browser and going to ESPN's website to use gamecast. I know the browser leaves a lot to be desired, but I couldn't quite get the gamecast to work without having...

    Air bubbles and dirt under touchscreen display

    I noticed there are bubbles and dirt particles under the touchscreen display in my Model 3. It sort of looks like there is some sort of laminate layer on top of the screen. I'm not sure if this is some sort of protective covering that they forgot to take off or if this is a manufacturing defect...

    Tesla's GPS vs. Waze vs. EVTripping questions...

    Need Nav Memory Points with Directional Sound Alarms

    A very useful feature on a Toyota from 2004 is a Nav Memory Point (of any kind) but especially with a directional sound alarm. This was great for registering speed traps so that it would sound a chime when you were approaching to remind you to check speed.

    PUP and upgraded audio

    When I was cruising the net dreaming about getting a new Model X, I noticed that the PUP option included upgraded audio, and the image of the car showed a subwoofer in the back. Well, my dreams came true and I'm driving a new (built in summer, '17) Model X. But guess what? No premium audio...
