2021+ Model S and Model S Plaid Refresh Issues Thread

[hotsoup]

Does anyone have squeaking from their windows when it closes the last 1" after the door is closed? I think there's something on my door seal that makes it squeak. I haven't been able to clean it off. I'm thinking of adding a tiny bit of silicone spray, but I'm not sure if it is compatible with the seals. I also have some this stuff, which thinking more, is probably the right thing to try first:

I have this exact same thing, thought it was my tint or something. Lmk how you fix.

I just applied the Gummi Pflege to the seals. It seemed to work. I'll see if it holds up over time.

I have had problems with my FOBs since day 3. I think this must be a NFC issue as the card and my iPhone work as designed.

Does anyone else's driver display have a dot effect like this? Very annoying...

Yeah, they all do. I'm convinced it's a problem with the display, like they forgot to install the defuser.

I'm not sure why they did it, but I think it's to do with essentially "dimming" the display in software (not possible in hardware with a fully backlit screen like this) toward the edges so it blends in to the surround plastics without an obvious screen -> no screen effect.

Here's a new one y'all haven't seen before. My Yoke scroll wheel squeaks when I scroll. Already scheduled service.

Same here on my drivers side window, it squeaks when going up and I also thought it was the tint.

The gummy pfledge is still working. No squeaks. I'll have to run it through the car wash and see if it holds up.

A car wash! Like one of those things with the dirt filled brushes? Hope you have a full expel wrap...

I use the no touch washes only.

Another one to add to the list. My front passenger door opened by itself today while driving. Error message said that the manual door release was pulled.

Update: Seems like the door wasn't closed hard enough. Despite the car saying it was closed...oh well

Question to the group... does the directional signals reset after a highway lane change automagically without Autopilot engaged?

I could have sworn my Plaid had this feature before the SC replaced my radar unit.

Yes, mine do. Make sure they're set to automatically turn off in the settings.

Yes

 

[DionysusJr]

Yes

I thought so.
So after picking up my car from the SC and discovering that the directional signal was not resetting I submitted a service appointment.
Immediately I received a call from a Tesla employee responding and preceded to argue with me that it wasn't so and you had to manually cancel the turn signal each time. Sheesh!

Did you verify that the Auto Cancel turn signals setting is still on? It might have been flipped off. Also have your cameras finished calibration (e.g. is Autosteer available?)
