Hey guys,
Well I was going to post an article about my fun adventure over the weekend installing new speakers, head unit, and iPhone 5 lightning connector for the dock in the center console, but today driving home from work I got the following error message on the VDS when I started the car: "Power Train Problem Service required".
Stupidly, I told myself I would call Tesla when I got home and attempted to drive. About a quarter down the road I noticed the regen brakes were not functioning, and a half mile down I got a "System Too Hot Vehicle Shutting Down" message. Luckily, I was able to pull over to the shoulder of the expressway. About three minutes later, when the traffic cleared for a moment I tried driving down to the corner where there was a gas station. As soon as I got into the driveway, the car stopped and would not move. I had to get out and push it by myself over into the parking area.
After an hour of dealing with AAA roadside, my membership had expired and I was not about to pay for a tow truck myself, I got a flat bed and had it towed to Fremont.
