My keycard slipped out of my hand and went where the cover goes in my Plaid model X; it is not in the storage area below, what to do??? TIA!

It's easy to accidently activate a Yoke-button turn signal. Problem is, to see which one you, have to look at the little display to see, then turn your attention to the corresponding button on the yoke and apply that to which button to press to shut it off. A better solution is that Tesla...

I leant my Plaid FSD Model X to someone who did all the wrong things and lost all my FSD Beta privileges, and an "access would be restored with an upcoming software release" message appeared. What can I do to get them back? (I mean my FSD Beta, not the person I leant it to.) My bad for not...

I own a 2018 Model X and a Plaid Model X. I leant one of my Model X's to a friend for a while; will each car score it's driver separately for allowing use of FSD Beta? Or do we have to worry about one of us messing up the other's driving score? Pardon the awkwardness of my question... I could...

As a happy 2018 Model X75D owner in a wheelchair, I told the mechanic to install the hand control on the right to avoid problems while entering and exiting the driver's seat; it worked well, so I had them do the same on my new Plaid X. But the wipers, horn, cruise control, and auto pilot are...

There ought to be a setting for new garage-kept cars to auto-open the windows or perhaps occasionally auto power-vent externally so the upholstery volatiles or whatever it is that fog up the insides of the windows don't make such a mess for the first year or so. Not talking about water vapor...

I set my Model X for a departure time of 5:45 AM, mostly because I want it to charge off-peak before in the mornings, but I find puddles of air conditioner condensation in my garage. How can I just shut off the cabin temp preconditioning so it just charges and I'll set the temperature when the...

Wondering why my Samsung Galaxy A21 won't charge on the charging pad... It's a bizarrely tall phone that barely fits on the area vertically if I remove the protector cover; it fits, but snugly...

What holds the wheels on my car???? I haven't a clue!

All I could find is that written permission from Tesla is required; is all I have to do to ask Tesla? What are Tesla's limitations? (It's actually for a Plaid X) Someone please enlighten me, also I'm not smart enough to find where this is already being discussed that has the answers.

I had been setting suspension height control to Very High on my driveway during the winter to avoid dragging on ice and snow on my driveway. After a while, if I as much as summon it forwards or back at all in my closed garage, it started raising from the desired Very Low setting I always leave...

6-seat Plaid X owners, how much distance is there, at most, between the rear of the driver's seat and the front of the second row seat? I've no problem stowing my manual wheelchair (wheels intact) over the folded seats in the second row of my 2018 Model X 5-seater. Yes, it's much easier than it...

My Plaid X is supposed to be delivered in February. I entered the information for my Trade in (3 year old Model X75D), but now when I try to select financing, it says "We are experiencing technical issues loading your payment details. Please try again later.". Is this because they need to...

Sometimes the context that knowing the date a quoted posted quote was originally posted can be really useful and save clicking on it, and there's always plenty of room there right next to their name. Please add that next to the original poster's name. Thanks!

I just downloaded the Tesla APP to my new iPhone. Upon opening the APP for the first time, all I see is account information and the owners manual. How do I find just the mobile APP, or if this is already it, how do I do things turn the heat off and on, tell it how much to charge, open and...

Is there a good way to clear snow? My region only gets snow a week or two on my solar panels, so it's not a huge concern, but still it drives me nuts, those solar panels sitting there useless under 2" of snow for a couple days at a time.

Why isn't there a browser-like way to access the history to replay streaming music, or a way to scroll the little progression timeline thingy with the little dot YouTube video style? Surely programing would be minimal.

I'm a wheelchair guy and I need to brace against the steering wheel while I get out of the driver's seat and into my wheelchair, but it's hard to do when the wheel turns free. It locks itself after enough time has passed, but there's nowhere to click the touchscreen to "Shut Off" the car that...

After the latest software update, while parked in the garage I'll hear my horn making quick, quiet little honks very now and then for no reason I can figure out. Does anyone else have this issue? March 2018 Model X 75D just updated to latest processor, latest MCU/display

What's the best avenue to request a simple software option that Tesla might actually see and consider? Proven effective advice much appreciated. This shouldn't matter much, but if you're curious: For a wheelchair guy, I'd like a simple driver's door hold and steering wheel lock I can activate...

Tried to book mobile service to fix a broken mirror but the service app is only giving me dates for an appointment at a service center for some reason. Is this the case for everyone or just a local anomaly? Last time mobile service fixed the same problem easily.

Where do I download the Tesla app to an iphone? Thanks!

What's the best link to educate about Tesla's imminent disruption in the auto industry in a simple decisive manner? Asking for my friend who just inherited an auto parts junk yard and needs to know what's happening to classic ICE manufacturers so he can figure out how it will affect the demand...

Summoning in and out of my garage - or even to move a foot or two fore and aft - sometimes requires 8 - 30 tries with the result mostly being unavailable connection just before the instant when the car seems about to move. I'm a wheelchair guy and got myself bottled in in the garage needing to...

Just downloaded Ver. 2020.12.5 but there's no sign of the expected dashcam viewer. What's the deal with that?

I'd really appreciate if somebody please post the keyfob battery changing instructions here. Changed the key fob battery the first time long ago by basically smashing it into place with pliers. Now I'm getting this useless notification suggesting I manually search the manual which has no search...

There should be a subscription option that allowed paid subscribers to a new service to Click To Hide selected posts so they never show again in that subscriber's account. Other Click To Hide subscribers could either: 1- Use the system as described, or- 2- Choose the threshold number of...

Not sure if I have it or not. Is there a video or something where I can hear it clearly? March 2018 X75D

Backed out of the garage, then turned very sharp while still backing up, and it felt like I was running over something like wood blocks. Turned sharp in the other direction going forward, and the same thing happened. Checked all the lug nuts were tight; they were, and my path was clear-smooth...

Am I the only one who can can't get Summon to connect and continue working long enough to move my car in and out of my garage? What do I need to know to make it work? 2018 X75D

Remove Front Wheel Housing Bezel on my 2018 Model X 75D? A mouse is happily tossing styrofoam chunks out of the crack right behind my front tire. How can I remove the rubbery plastic cover all around above the front tire and the little half-moon-ish molding around the fender edge to get to the...

I'm planning a trip that includes minor roads, but google maps doesn't show charging stations; where can I find a website like google maps that shows me the charging stations so I can plan my route without having to leave the office and use my Tesla navigation system?

I have a year-old Model X with EAP & FSD. I stumbled upon a video for autopark; didn't know autopark existed existed. How do I make it parallel or perpendicular park itself? I can't find out how to initiate that.

Only 9,000 miles and already I had to replace 2 Continental Cross Contact LX 20" tires, (OEM) left front and right rear, on my Model X75D. Not an acceptable tire failure rate; I have a few gravel driveway potholes, and only once towed a lightly loaded trailer. Am I the only one having trouble...

If I have non-PUP 2018 Model X, can I get the steering wheel heat somehow?

Has anyone ordered a new Model X right front door and right front fender lately? How available are those items? Cost? Mine are a bit damaged, the car is driveable.... It's just not very pretty right now.

Is there any reason I can't just bring a Tesla X to a local auto body repair place for minor damages vs. driving 100 miles and likely having to wait a long time at the Tesla SC?

I'd like to keep one spare wheel and tire at home to use it anywhere on the car in an emergency. I'm told the "rear on Model X is wider than the front, and may rub at severe steering input, but for emergency purposes would work on the front since it has the same bolt size and offset; it will...

My power was out from the storm. The only way I could keep wifi and an LED bulb on was the cigarette lighter/12 volt port on my Model X and a little inverter. But it shuts off every few minutes and I have to keep reactivating the Tesla. Is there any way to keep it on? Surely somebody who uses...

Why is there no place to post anything applicable to ALL models of Tesla? There's a forum for each model, and one for non-Tesla EVs. But what if I want to make a non Model-specific post that all owners might see? For example, I won a Model X, but the expertise of the many Model S owners is...

If I buy AP, can I still have the old standard cruise control mode whenever I like? And why isn't there an "all models" forum for questions like this?

Why not design cars with more legroom, or even add a 4th row or more storage space in the back? Wouldn't that greatly increase the utility while barely increasing wind resistance? Wouldn't a more limo-like shape be much more efficient? So what am I overlooking? It would be great if my Model X...

If I add Enhanced Autopilot to my 2 month old Tesla, how can I get my insurance to add the value to the car so it's covered for the increased replacement cost (which would increase by the $6,000 cost of adding Enhanced Autopilot) in the event it's totaled? Will my insurance be obligated to...

Despite what should be a strong WiFi signal, my X won't upload the latest maps. Is there a sweet spot where I should place my wireless router in the garage with my Model X for best results? There must be one optimum place, be it in the car, in front, behind, or something. Anyone know? The Tesla...

What if I'm a bad part of town at night and want to quietly get in my car and leave without being noticed? But the instant I approach with my key fob... it's SHOW TIME! Headlights and tail lights pointlessly light up, touch screen and dash display brighten up... How do I turn that off till I...

March 14, 2018 delivery. After 731 uneventful miles, no defects nor fit and finish issues in my Feb, 2018 manufacture X75D so far. Fobs boxed with easy to use key rings, for those concerned about such trivialities. Trailer hitch in stock, but I wish I'd known to request hitch installation before...

Somebody with a Hand control on their Model X please tell me which side it's set up on and what brand and model hand control and how it works for you?? I need some advice. Local hand control place recommends left side control, but I'd like that hand free for the touch screen. I have full use...

Surely there are wheelchair guys driving Model X's, where does your wheelchair fit and how do you load it from the driver's seat? Thinking the X was a big car, I visited the store but was disappointed there's little room on the floor in front of the second row seats, and only 28" under the FWD...
