    Looking for South Bay area alignment shop for Model X

    Auto Innovations in Milpitas. I have used them a few times before for alignments, tire changes on a BMW and a Porsche. Great service and very competent shop.

    Car won’t sleep, hot rearview camera possibly causing 12 V battery failure

    Maybe try a reboot / power off cycle now that the dash camera is off and SSD removed?

    Car won’t sleep, hot rearview camera possibly causing 12 V battery failure

    I am on 2020.44 and just checked temperature of the rear camera with an IR thermometer. Temperature at 88F after ~15 minutes from completing a drive. I will check again in 30 minutes. 30 minutes later.... temperature is now 64F, approximately same temperature as my garage.

    12v battery issues

    Have any of you tried to charge the 12 volt battery directly? Would be interesting to see if the life of the 12 volt battery is extended if charged with a battery tender say every 2 months

    FSD up to $10k on October 29, 2020??

    Given the current beta, I am reasonably certain roll out to masses would be before end of year .....so that Tesla can recognize revenue for all the prepaid FSD wins.

    Am in the same situation as you with a 2018 M3 w/ EAP and 2019 MX w/ no FSD....pulled the trigger with the EAP upgrade last week for the MX...was a no-brainer.

    Key not in car

    I have the exact same problem, happens very often. I deal with it by either double clicking the fob or placing the fob below the cigarette lighter in the center console.

    MX17 - FalconWing Door weather stripping deteriorating - Not covered by Warranty

    Anyone tried this https://www.amazon.com/nextzett-91480615-Gummi-Pflege-Rubber/dp/B004B8GTQG Seems like cheap insurance.

    What 'accessories' are included in current (2020) Model X delivery?

    Did you get the cupholder inserts for the center console with the sliding door? You should get 4 total to hold 2 cups.

    ??? doors & high beams 2019 MX

    Re the high beams, make sure you push the main left side stalk away from you - you should see an auto beams indicator in the instrument cluster display - auto high beams will not work otherwise.

    Engine failure after 500 miles On Raven X

    Bummer, am sorry that this happened. Back in 2013, they replaced my Model S drive unit entirely and I never had any issues again. I would imagine they will just swap out the defective unit and replace with a new one. Keep us posted on the outcome.

    Anyone received delivery of 2019 'Raven' Refresh?

    Does not seem to be normal. Both my model 3 and X were done within 25 miles. How many miles have you put on?
  21. S

    Anyone received delivery of 2019 'Raven' Refresh?

    i got mine yesterday. Order placed 8/4, car ready for delivery 8/7 but I chose 8/9. Initially went back and forth between the Raven X and S - drove both multiple times over a few weeks. Suspension vastly improved. The superior spaciousness and comfort of the X was the final deciding factor...

    Lease transfer?

    I have personally done it. Was a very easy process. Can’t say the same of my experience with GM Financial when transferring my Volt lease.

    Anyone received delivery of 2019 'Raven' Refresh?

    I saw a Raven Model S in Sunnyvale showroom with this combo. Looks very nice - my worry is the light carpet. The showroom car had the carpets covered up in plastic to keep them clean :-)

    New wall charger option w/ Nema 14-50

    Thanks, this would make sense as the wall connector is fastened in place while the UMC is not.

    New wall charger option w/ Nema 14-50

    NEC 625.17(A)(3)(a) States that pigtail must be restricted to 12 inches. Hence my confusion.

    New wall charger option w/ Nema 14-50

    The pigtail looks longer than 12 inches - seems to be more than what the NEC allows. How would this be code compliant?

    Model 3 Software Update 46.2

    I am exactly in the same boat as you with 42.2.1. I called Tesla, they confirmed no issues with my car and that I should just wait.

    Abnormally high fogging on inside of glass?

    I have found the following to work quite well with relatively minimal energy impact. Climate auto off, temperature at 68, AC on, air vent directed to windshield, fan speed on 1, air recirculation off. If I need to feel toasty, use the seat heater.

    4,700 miles on my Model 3 and my tires are on the wear bar

    Wonder why the stabilizer bar links would have any effect on tire wear. There seems to be nothing done on alignment, which I think would.

    Delivery at Freemont this am (Aug 3)

    Congrats! I picked up my Model 3 yesterday from Fremont. Even I found my screen to be dusty, which I felt was odd given that every other part was clean. Upon looking closely, I realized that there is a protective cover on the screen which you need to remove - once removed, the screen below is...

    Fingers crossed - delivery scheduled for Aug 2nd

    I too was surprised when my ISA emailed me that I could pay via a personal check. I even offered to pay via ACH when I was signing the paperwork, but the delivery specialist told me that a personal check was fine. The only thing I can think of is that I am a returning customer twice over, and...

    Thanks. The phone app was working in the morning, and since I had enabled notifications, was notified that 2018.26.3 was downloaded and installed - this was also a pleasant surprise.

    Let's talk financing rates

    Correct, except that some CU's do not need you to first become a member / open an account - they allow you to first apply for a loan. If you are approved and then proceed, you then become a member / open an account. Xceed is one such CU.

    Miy letter from Xceed also says preapproval, and that worked fine with Lighstream

    Documentation needed for Lightstream

    Ask xceed to provide you a letter with loan amount, term, rate with autopay, and purpose of loan (ie auto loan). I got all of these but the term and rate were in the email body, while the loan amount and purpose were in the letter. I think they intentionally do it this way because all Tesla...

    Documentation needed for Lightstream

    I just went through the process with Xceed and Lightstream. The trick is to forward xceed’s email with the attached letter to lighstream. The email body should have the rate and the term while the letter will have the amount. Be explicit in your email to lightstream what you want: cite your...
