K-MTG (Captain Sunshade) - Model X

It's the software guys! Any new iOS version ends up having some software bug that Apple will need to push a fix for after about 12 hours of public consumption. Hmmm... Reminds of something, just can't put my finger on it.

I have to confess/admit, I drove without my sunshade today and the windshield is rather nice when its cloudy as it was today in the O.C. Obviously on sunny days I prefer a solid sunshade or else it feels as if one is driving into the sun. Why doesn't Tesla implement electrochroamatic tint, it was on the Lucid Air vehicle I got to check out earlier this month.

You've been missing a lot Captain. (But I do use sunshade most of the time as well in SF area)

Does the driver's side mirror have a electrochromatic tint? I know its auto-dimming.

If so, it might mean that someday the whole top windshield can be made auto-dimming.

Heh, I totally forgot that the sunshade even exists until this thread popped up again. And I don't know where mine is. Probably in the attic.

I put mine in a cabinet in the garage. So it will go with the X on sale or trade. I came 6 months after delivery, I didn't have an issue over last summer, and still don't. However, I do understand that others may have a differing sensitivity to sunlight.

The new FF has that "transparent glass roof" which I am very jealous of.
My rule with shade, above 75 degree, it is a must. Between 70 to 75, it is a questionable decision. Below 70, why not enjoy the view?

Just got my car back from the SC for the annual inspection + detail + latch replacement + rumbling sound. They fixed the rumbling sound and also replaced the latches even though I didn't have any door issues. But unfortunately I do now....

On some instances when I close the passenger door and immediately shift to drive, the car states the door is open (even when it isn't) and after 10-15 seconds the door makes a rumbling noise and the alert goes away. Any recommendations on resolve this? Perhaps former door captain @ModelXBoy can provide some advice??

Thanks

Experience it for the first time today. My Model X door opened while it was parked for 2 hours (heard it in the dashcam footage). Luckily nothing was stolen.

Thankfully these were still on the driver's seat when you returned?

Did you check inside? Maybe replaced with rocks...

Glad nothing bad happened!

I didn’t check but my sunshade wasn’t taken....that’s all that matters
