Hi, Posted about this over last few years. In general, what I can't figure out is why Tesla can not modify the firmware to force drying of the filters after parking. Same issue on our 2018 Model 3 and now our 2021 Model S Refresh. In 2018, they promised a programming change to force the damper...

Same Trunk Latch not working situation happened February 2023 at 18k miles on 2021 Model S Refresh. Adding comments for DIY's. My wife was about 1 hour away from home, I took an Uber, hanger, and some other tools to try and temporarily fix it. Texted Service to try and troubleshoot, did all of...

Sharing this advice to CONSIDER NOT asking Tesla to replace this coat hook if the thin rubber coating breaks and it does not look so good. After almost 2 hours of removing ALL of the Trim to the back of the car and the pillar trim on each side of the rear door, they have to use a crow bar to...

So here we are on June 29, 2023 and Mobile Service is replacing the Cabin Filter, again for the foul smell, that came back as soon as we started to use AC (humidity in NC came later this year). It really is unbelievable that Tesla is not able to force the fan to run with external damper open to...

@Ozzie66 Yes, have had no issues since.

Rear latch closes but won’t cinch down. Closes under power and latch aligned, but motor does not run to pull down against seal. Called Tesla and they insisted on sending a flatbed tow due to safety. I had already crawled in the trunk and put wire to hold it down, but they wanted to bring it to...

2021 Model S LR Refresh - Foul Smell in Cabin Hi, Has anyone had any success with Tesla Service to cover the cost of replacing the Cabin Filter due to the foul smell? Service said it was 1 year (delivered 8/30/21) and filter should be replaced. But manual says every 3 years. I decided not to...

I want to install the NC QuickPass HOV Transponder (must be mounted on the front windshield to physically slide the HOV Switch for Toll Saving) on my windshield. I have seen several issues where it does not work. Does anyone have experience with 2021 Model S (Delivered August 2021, with, I...

Thanks. This makes sense, the Leviton is 1" deep, the Hubbell is 1.8" deep.

Recently had the same issue of charging amperage dropping to 16A, with the 'T' on the Mobile Connector flashing 4 times. (See attached PDF for what the diagnostic codes on the body mean) I have a 2021 Model S LR. I will give the details below, but one piece of data that was eventually shared...

Thanks for the info. Can you send the center hub that you used to get a close match? I assume you like the combination?

Has anyone found aftermarket Center Hub and Lug nut Covers for the 2021 Model S with 19" wheels? Wanting to take Aero Covers off except for long trips. The wheels look great without the Aero Covers. All of the kits I have found so far do not have lug nut covers that are long enough to cover the...

Thanks, great information, very helpful that the Varilux 'X' series is working for you. I currently use Magnetic Clip-On polarizing lens on my regular progressives, but they don't have transition lenses. Good suggestion to consider continuing this option and get the Transition Lens with Clip-On...

@DerbyDave . Thanks for the first hand experience. I have had progressives for years and the ophthalmologist recommended Varilux ‘X’ series, do know if you have X or Comfort? He said he was not sure about the edges of the progressives and the touch screen in a similar view. Thanks also for...

When we got our 2018 Model 3, had to buy prescription sunglasses because the touch screen was too blurry. I have a mild prescription left +2.5, right +1.5 with Add of +2.25. Still have same problem on our 2021 S.

Does anyone have experience with types of Prescription Lenses(Interested in Essilor Varilux 'X' series or 'Comfort') that work best for Driving and looking at the Touch Screen? I am getting a new pair of glasses and wanted to get any inputs on what the community my be experiencing. Plan to use...

Hi All, I bought the entire Tesmanian set for our 2021 MS LR. https://www.tesmanian.com/collections/tesla-model-s-accessories/products/2021-tesla-model-s-floor-mats-full-set I previously bought the WeatherTech liners that were available in August. I returned them. I did not like the driver...

Thanks!

Hi All, Looking for ideas on the Refresh 2021 Model S Floor Liners: 1. Tesla Shop does not have Floor Liners available yet, only All Weather Mats. 2. I purchased WeatherTech 2021 Model S Front Driver/Passenger /Frunk/Trunk Bottom Trunk/(Cargo Mat and Rear Passenger not available yet) ( 2021...

FYI to people receiving your cars. Note: We are all buying a low riding car, so the info below is not exact and meant to be used if you choose to. It is my own experience and data. Might want to check this area at delivery, I wish I had. I checked the Front Air Dam and Fender on our 8/30/21...

As pointed out by @4SUPER9 , be careful with setting too low, my wife hit her head this am as the trunk corner is much lower now. So...I raised it and put some foam tubing insulation on the garage door 'joint' in case the hatch is lined up to hit that part of the door.

This may be widely known, but will share as it can be helpful on the first night in the garage. Hatchback raises very high, if you have a regular garage, it may hit the wood trim or garage door itself. But, there is a solution. found in manual. 1. Open hatch (outside garage :) ) then manually...

Actually, since the issues we have found so far are really on delivery, I will list out here: (All items below are going into our 24 hour Service Request) SA told us about these first 2 upfront: 1. Missing all 3 Rear Trunk covers (Triangle on Left Side, Main Bottom Trunk cover, and Total Trunk...

@Kyle [CK] Could you share the Build Date of your car with the failed rear inverter? Thanks

I just logged into my app, nothing is there since I don't have my new Tesla, yet. But, if you log into your online account after you transfer ownership, your Dashboard will have a section 'Previously Owned Vehicles'. I can still see the VIN and the date I transferred it.

Looking for any feedback or experience with Charlotte, NC area PPF (Paint Protection Film) and or Ceramic protection. Taking delivery of 2021 Model S LR MSM 19" Tempest on 8/30 and would like to get this protection right after delivery. Any help would be appreciated.

Noticed most of the cars parked in the dirt along the railroad tracks are now gone. (See 1:16 into 8/4/21 video above) (See 0:50 in this 7/5/21 video) (See 1:12 in this 6/30/21 video) (See 1:37 in this 5/23/21 video)

@GaryF, not sure why that would be. There is a database Google Doc that you can sort for your specific vehicle type and see what others are experiencing. Hope this helps. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ynONcZC4Sg8GCzitDuaofrIZ1XCSqI3O6Oif5Jd681M/edit?usp=sharing

Thanks for reply and thoughts on what it might mean. I see from your signature we have the same car on order....so I will be sure to keep up the spreadsheet and share here whatever I learn in the event the EV Gods bestow our car before yours.....but as you said...the only real constant has been...

@pac_ I just started entering information in the Google Docs Sheet. Is it reasonable to assume I have a 'good' VehicleMapID (25004XXX) if it is the lowest number in the sheet for MSLR 19"? My EDD is fluctuating between 8/24-8/26 to 9/3 each day since 8/8. Trying to not get too hopeful. Thanks!

Thanks! Perfect instructions. Looks like this number is aligning with EDD's of August - September MSLR 19" mine is 25004XXX

On 8/6/21 our RN11424XXXX EDD changed from "blank" to August 22 - September 03, for a MSM, LR, black interior, 19" wheels. It had been 'July' until about 2 weeks ago before going blank. Some background, we paid $100 deposit on 12/2/20 and received our RN11424 at that time. We delayed confirming...
