    Tyre Repair Shop - Internal Repair

    Can anyone recommend a good tyre repair shop in Hong Kong? Not just the typical tubeless plug repair, but a shop that does proper repair from the inside of the tyre with an internal patch.

    Simple Scratch Repair Advice

    Use some Brasso metal polish and a microfibre or other cloth. Buff it by hand with a bit of force in a circular motion with the force of 2 fingers with a good amount of Brasso on the cloth until all the "other paint" is gone. Buff it off with a clean part of the cloth. All of the other colour...

    Front Trunk unable to open - Model X Safety concern

    The joys of the month-long wait list of Tesla Hong Kong's service centre. No water damage. The latch did not want to release, so I could always close it, just not open it beyond the latch.

    Front Trunk unable to open - Model X Safety concern

    Tesla has fixed the problem. They had to replace the entire locking and latching mechanism.

    Front Trunk unable to open - Model X Safety concern

    Not resolved yet, and no way to open it. Service Appointment at the end of the month...

    Front Trunk unable to open - Model X Safety concern

    Thanks Mark, yea I reckon I will need to do that. Waiting a month for this to be looked at is not really acceptable as it is a safety concern. If I end up in an accident and emergency first responders need to cut the main power wires inside the frunk....but that's also assuming emergency...

    Front Trunk unable to open - Model X Safety concern

    My model X Frunk is unable to open. The car is only 6 months old. It pops up, but stays latched. It is NOT in valet mode and I have even tried the emergency open rapid response toggles but also only pops open and stays latched. There is no way I can get the frunk to open up, other than popping...

    Front Trunk unable to open - Serious Issue in case of emergency

    Yea, I've tried the emergency latch release at the same time as someone pulling on the hood but it simply won't unlatch at all.. It seems that the emergency release is only an electric backup that does the same as from the inside of the car or the key fob...it does not release the mechanical...

    Warning - Model X Locking itself with key inside

    Yes, after talking to some guys about the issue that seems to be what the problem is. So the consensus is to keep your phone and key fob apart, both in the car and in your pockets. Since doing that, I have not had it happen again.

    Warning - Model X Locking itself with key inside

    That might me a good idea. Looks like the seat sensor does not work as advertised. As far as I understand, if nobody is sitting on the seat and the keys are in the car, it should remain unlocked.

    Warning - Model X Locking itself with key inside

    Just a heads-up for everyone, possibly a software update bug. My model X just recently locked me out of the car. I stopped in line to wait for a supercharger and stepped out of the car briefly to throw something in a rubbish bin. My keys and phone were in the car and it locked itself as I...

    So glad RHD model 3 won't be until 2019

    Probably not much chance of the FRT being waved again. We also shouldn't be too surprised if they eventually take the $97.5K incentive away too....especially close to Model 3 order or delivery time. The Lobbyists are really trying their best to kill Tesla in Hong Kong...and the Government...
