    Keyfob and driver profile with auto unlock after 2.52.120 update

    I am pretty sure when Tesla enabled the functionality to connect a keyfob to a driver's profile, it was working with the auto unlock feature as well. You could just walk close to the car with the keyfob with you, the car would unlock and auto present the handles and when you opened the door, the...

    Autopia Car Wash Walnut Creek CA--lost key

    I frequent the Autopia Car Wash in Walnut Creek (SF Bay Area). I was there today Sat. 12/24. At the finishing area (where they dry the cars) I saw an abandoned Tesla key. I think it is for an S and is a newer looking key (has the rubber top shell). If you are missing your key and drove off...

    App Request - Start Car w/ Fingerprint

    I have found myself using my wife's new model X a lot lately via the app instead of using the key fob. It would be great if Tesla could update their app to allow customers to authorize starting the vehicle without typing in the password each time. It's a pain in the butt if I am going to a few...

    Key fob case?

    I picked up my X on Tuesday! I'll give my initial impressions below, but first, the point of this post: I understand the key fob for the X is slightly different than the S. I want to get some kind of case or holder to protect it - but I've searched all over online and can only find a case or...

    Falcon Wings open from key fob signal while driving

    First, I want to say that the local Tesla Service guy, Lee Woolley, has been great. But I bought a fully loaded X and took delivery 3 weeks ago and destroyed the drivers side falcon wing door because of an errant signal from the key fob in my pocket while I was exiting my garage for the very...

    Keyfob te hacken of niet?

    Op 22 maart in "De Ingenieur": Elektronische sleutels van auto’s zijn te hacken Zie het betreffende artikel. Gaat dus om sleutels die bedoeld zijn voor keyless entry, zoals met de Tesla's. Nu is het in principe met de Model S toch gelukkig wel wat lastiger: de key moet ook in de auto zijn om er...

    Flexible Keyring for keyfob?

    Since the holes on the keyfob are weird and won't fit a normal keyring, I'm trying to find some of those metal flexible keyrings. I remember ones that kind of look like a slinky. Anyone know where I can find any? I don't like the pouch, takes up too much room. I've found these, but it's not...

    Safety feature --- Can I just unlock the driver's door with the key-fob?

    We recently picked up our Model S at the Fremont Factory... Simply an amazing experience... Now that we're getting more familiar with the inner workings of the car, we noticed that the Model S lacks the ability to modify the protocol for opening the doors... Are we missing something? From a...

    Husband/Wife Key Fobs and driver profiles?

    Tesla allows different driver profiles to adjust seats, mirrors, etc. I have set up a profile for myself and for my wife. Is there some way that the profile can be triggered with different key fobs? I would like the profile to switch to my settings when I get in the car with "my" key fob and...

    Roadster Sport: Can anyone describe the procedure for reprogramming a key fob?

    Can anyone describe the procedure for reprogramming a "forgotten" key fob so it can be recognized by the alarm system in the Roadster Sport? I would like to avoid a service visit just to reprogram a "Maytag-ed" key fob. Thank you. cangman
