Hi. I have a similar question - my 2018 MX needs new wipers. Are the ones from Tesla the best or at least as good as any others? - Thanks ... Jim in the PNW (where wipers are IMPORTANT)

Good news! I especially note the improvement for "non-I5 corridor" and "non-large population centers". My personal 'problem' (concern) with Oregon super charger locations is that they don't serve the drivers who are not just passing thru (as well as those who are or who are staying in the...

Yogi799 - I previously gave you a "let's try this ... for just one full week" suggestion. If you do that you -may- find that your mileage significantly increases. After you have done that then you can decide whether you want to continue in your current driving style ... or go to something that...

I see references to a 2023 update ... but my car hasn't found it/tried it.

Julien, I'm on my home wifi - or at least I was before. I wanted to check that connection status for the car. App has gone back to "Downloading 2022.44.30.10" ...but not making any progress. Before there was just one dot of the progress bar (car display) and it showed a very small amount...

Julien, Thanks again. Fingers crossed for success the next time. I tried to find where the car links up to my home wifi. Couldn't find it. Did I miss it or does the car not use my home network? - Jim in the PNW

Hi yogi, I have a 2018 MX. It gets pretty much the range shown on the dash ... in good weather. In the winter - not so much. Read more to find out why I can say this ... If you haven't ever heard this - heating or cooling a car is the worst possible environmental situation ever asked of...

Julien ... I did the MCU Reset and that worked. Sort of. It did clear the failed attempt to download 2022.40.10.25 so the vehicle seems to be fully back to the prior number. However, it is now saying "your vehicle is up to date" (sic) when before it wanted to download and install 40.10.25...

My download of 2022.40.10.25 (right number? the latest) has stalled. I've tried everything I can find and it never starts back up. Stopped very near the start. Can't find a "cancel" either. Any ideas?

dgates12 - sorry, no video available (that I know of). I had my work done by Tesla service. They did the work in my driveway and it took about 2 to 3 hours. I think Tesla service has videos/some kind of instructions available to them - the tech checked his phone several times. I don't know if...

Yes, I know about that part - cancelling the apply of the update/not able to do so after it actually starts the apply. This was still downloading - and causing vampire drain - and I wanted to stop the download (due to high vampire drain during the download) and run that at a later time...

... and I still want to know why I can't cancel an update remotely ...

My car must be set to "auto update" since we are both gone for a few days. It completed and now the vampire drain is way down ... so dodged that bullet. - Jim in the PNW (where cold weather changes how 'sensitive' you are to vampire drain)

Hi, I'm away from home for a few days. Just went in to check charge status ... and discovered the vehicle is doing a software update. Tried to cancel/suspend the software update and there appears to be no way to do this using the Tesla app on my phone. As near as I can tell the only way...

I just came back from a 2 week trip. Model X sitting in our garage - not plugged in, miles = 234 when I left. After 10 days the miles left was down to just 70 miles. Turned off security monitor and the drain went to a trickle and 4 days later car was still at 68 miles. If you leave the...
