Hi @acoburn73 , If you are cramped for time a 72A charger will charge faster... You will need an "older" Gen 2 wall charger as the current models Gen 3 supply 48 Amps maximum... Only you can determine if the money is worth the reduced charging time. Good luck, Shawn

Hi @kebel21 , The proper place for the external Ipass license plate transponder is on or in the front bumper. It will not work inside of the car... Many problems with my wife's 2015 S 85 D... I ended up mounting it inside the center of the "nose cone" bumper... I just had to replace it as the...

Hi @JPWX, The list still looks good to me... As someone above mentioned your trailer dealer may be able to help installing things. A time critical item is the Tesla Adapter harness 1072586-00-A It may be available through your Tesla service center. Not something your trailer dealer will...

Hi All, I have a condo and a HOA in Florida. Good news for me is that it is a small 8 unit building. The HOA are neighbors and were amenable to an installation for an outlet for my car. We do not have deeded parking spaces or any specific spots other than by seniority. I was able to “reserve...

Hi All, WRONG. A bolt is not just a bolt… Standard of the shelf hardware store bolts are usually Grade 5. In the Tesla part number description the 10.9 indicates the grade of the bolts. They are special. The proper torque spec. is 80 ft/lbs. Six threads of engagement is pitiful for what these...

Hi @Jay Kamhi , Sorry for your troubled tires... I have had some flat tire experiences in my Model X. At my (former) favorite Mexican restaurant I found 2 screws and a nail in the same tire! I don't go there any more... Thank you for the pictures of your tires. I don't know if they are before...
