I went to the local service center. I believe they just replaced the screen. It was about $1,000 or so. I was frustrated that they didn’t cover it since they clearly know it’s an issue. But at the same time, the screen is bigger than an ipad, so I rationalized that it wasn’t that bad. And not...

This just started happening to my December 2013 Model S three days ago. Started in upper left hand corner, then yesterday was across the full top edge (see attached), and later that day I noticed that there was goo dripping from the bottom of the screen. Today no significant change on the...

Did you ever get this resolved? Its happening to me now....

Have you gotten this resolved? Its happening to me now...

Just in case Tesla IS monitoring TMC.....I concur thatSE Arizona needing a supercharger, and Benson would suit me just fine! ( have a client there....and take my ICE currently. And the sightseeing down there is great too, like has already been stated. We need the I-10 corridor to Houston...

As a way to communicate your personal charging situation, I've seen multiple versions of the following: EV Card | Plug In America And there is an app called supercharger QR, which allows people to contact you thru the app vs posting your cell phone publicly. I tried both, though personally find...

I'm interested to know too. I'm supposed to go to Tucson on Tuesday and would like to use it. Or else I'll have to ICE it.

I would most likely be in, but can't commit for sure until its closer. I will mark my calendar though!!

+1 Thanks for planning. Look forward to more in the future!

I have a coworker with a Ford Fusion plug-in, and passed this along to her. She was able to get one within 10 minutes. Thanks for posting about this, and that they were still available. Great news!

There's a brown one in the pics from this awesome looking event. Photos from Mt. Evans Tesla Road Rally June 7, 2014

Well THAT explains it!!! I have been seeing Volts with the cloud plate, and have been confused - as I've been telling everyone that they don't qualify, since they have the small gas engine. I had not looked at them close enough to realize they have the hybrid sign on them. Interesting.....I...

Problem with HPWCs is they only benefit those with dual chargers - which I frustratingly neglected to get. So, that only gets me 40A charging....which is better than most chargers....but still not at supercharger level. I am always amazed at the pics from Flagstaff being full. Although I...

So, I don't know if it was because I replied to this thread last weekend, or because I had inquired about the AC noise a few months back - but I got a call on Tuesday from the local service center offering for me to bring the car the next day for the "acoustic blanket". I got it installed...

so weird. here's a screen print of what I see. It must be the ipad. But oddly enough, other people's attachments can show both inline, or as attachments. So....that doesn't really make sense that the ipad could be doing that. I guess it just doesn't matter. But I hate not knowing stuff like...

Living here in the desert with the two of you, I would totally appreciate an easy way to keep the A/C on while you go in somewhere quickly. Sometimes when I leave the car, I use the app to turn the AC back on - but I don't know how long it actually stays on, as I think its based on the temp in...

Here's a great resource for adapters, oddly enough, written by the previous poster! But I came across it on teslatap. http://cosmacelf.net/Home%20Made%20Adapters.pdf

test. That's the button I"ve been using. 3rd from the right, or the 3rd icon in the right box. Still shows up as 'attached images'. Could it be because i'm on an ipad?

When we started to heat up here in the desert a couple months ago, I immediately noticed the loud AC noise. I also felt a vibration through the floor, pedals, and steering wheel. I called the main Tesla number and asked if all of this was normal. They told me it does make noise, but that I...

I have been having intermittent remote app connectivity problems. They seem much worse since my first 5.9 upgrade. Its more than just the sleep delay....it will sometimes just NOT connect at all, even upon several tries. I got another 5.9 this week, but haven't tried the remote app yet...

Oh trust me.....I'm with you on that!!! I'm very frustrated that the benefit of twin chargers wasn't explained to me (and I didn't do my own research) when I bought the car. They focused on how you didn't need the HPWC cause you can charge on 14-50 overnight just fine - which is completely...

When I post pictures they show up in a box that says 'attachments'. I use the little picture icon that's next to the video icon. Some other people's show up within their thread. How do you post them that way?

at the Gila Bend, AZ supercharger. I love the Brown - it hides the dirt and dust very well!! Which is important in the desert!!

I still haven't gotten 5.11, but I did get an update to 5.9 earlier this week. I don't remember the release number prior to this update. But right now I have 1.51.101. The release notes were the same (as always), which definitely is frustrating. I sure wish they at least said - minor bug...

Does anyone have any info on 'when' in Casa Grande, or any other location between Tucson and Phoenix? This is really causing an issue for me, as I frequently make day trips to Tucson from Phoenix and haven't figured out how to do it in the Tesla. I don't have twin chargers, so can't really...

I don't know the answer, but am also curious. I usually just leave mine on 'auto' and let it do its thing. But on a recent road trip to San Diego....I was wondering how to best manage the energy usage during my bouts of range anxiety (I did have 'range mode' on). The other day, I sat in the...

I am in Scottsdale too....and my biggest regret is not getting the dual chargers. It used to be packaged with the HPWC, and multiple Tesla reps told me I didn't need it. I agree, I didn't need the HPWC as 240v/40a is plenty for home. But....I have had multiple scenarios on the road when I...

Top pic: Buckeye, AZ Second pic: Gila Bend, AZ Third pic: Yuma, AZ All were last weekend on RT from Scottsdale to San Diego.

My Yuma to SD was a bit more nerve racking. I didn't totally top off, and wish I had. I left Yuma with 255 miles, arrived on Shelter Island with 37 miles left. On the flat part out of Yuma, I went around 70 (vs. the 80 I would have normally done), as I was worried about the hill. Going up...

Charged at Gila Bend on Friday on the way to San Diego

Wh Miles State Battery Wheels LastUpdate MBattery shepali 357 5507 AZ 85 19 4/26/2014 85 It is curious to me that I'm so much higher than the AZ average - I guess its because of my commuting habits. The vast majority of my miles are all from my regular daily commute...

Tesla store told me that the roof already has 3M Crystalline on it - I don't know if that's true, but it definitely has something on it that rejects the heat. I got 3M on the sides, back, and windshield - and skipped the pano. No regrets.

My avatar says it all: KWGUZLR I thought it was pretty cute, because, the way I drive...I guzzle KWs quickly! As I'm flying by people, I hope they smile :-) Off topic...but I find I guzzle about 35% more than the rated miles (i.e. regularly burn 75 miles over a 55 mile distance). Though...

I have a Brown MS and went with 3M Crystalline installed by Cactus Tint in Scottsdale, the same place that had previously done araxara's Brown MS with Photosync. I am very happy with it and their professionalism, service and quality. I was going to go with Photosync because of everything I...

My husband was very skeptical about me getting the pano roof for this exact concern. As a matter of fact, my first test drive was at night, and my husband insisted I go back and test drive again in the daylight. I did go ahead and get the pano roof - though I haven't been thru a summer yet, I...

I have wondered that myself. But in addition, I have also wondered what the energy usage is measuring - kW per what? I assume kW per mile? But the math doesn't seem to really line up with my 'average' kWh, or with the averages in the Energy screen.

Any news on the Phoenix-Tucson corridor? This is definitely the one missing link for us in AZ, and is also a downfall for many people that I'm trying to talk into a Tesla. For example....A coworker is talking of getting a new BMW 6-series sedan. I kept my 6-series convertible (which I...

+1!!! I was really uncomfortable with the question at first, and my husband answered for me the first few times. He said 'you can look it up on the website....but its about 100k'. I'm not comfortable with that answer, for all the reasons others have stated. So, I started going with: They...

I keep the following in my web favorites and pull it up whenever I valet. Tesla Valet Operation I've only used valet 4-5 times so far, but haven't had any issues yet. As a matter of fact, I don't really 'say' anything, and they all act like I am in a Ferrari or Lambo - all attentive and...

My 85 lb long hair german shepherd LOVES my MS. Its easier for her to get into than the X5, and with the seats down she can be closer to me than in the way back of the SUV. I have the following, which has nice adjustable 'loops' that can go over the front seat headrests, OR over the backseat...

Looks like I'm not going to be able to make it afterall. But definitely looking forward to the next one!!!! Have fun and drive safe.

Count me in, especially if I get to meet those two gorgeous pups in the frunk!! Update: I'm unfortunately not going to be able to make the trip afterall. But looking forward to the next one!!! And tell the Pups I said Happy New Year!

I also wonder how this statue applies when the parking is on private property....I assume the Tesla SC's are all considered private property, so would be interesting how the police would deal with it.

Where's the option for Blackberry? Yeah....I really do still have and use and like mine. Crazy, I know. But I think getting the MS may be what pushes me over the edge to have to get an iphone or Droid, since I doubt Tesla's working on a BB app right now. :rolleyes: I do have an ipad...

Sounds great! I've put it on my calendar and will plan to join. Adding Wickenburg would be fun too, or we can just play that by ear. I'm in N. Scottsdale like a few others, if anyone wants to meetup and head to Avondale together. I propose Paradise Bakery on Mayo/Scottsdale Rd, folks can get...

Thanks for the positive reputation, whoever did that! Seemed to do the trick.

Wow. Thanks for the info. Definitely sounds like something to avoid! I have so much to learn about how the car and technology works....and appreciate the feedback and information available on this forum. Although I'm very comfortable with the range on a normal commuting day, its going to...

Sigus - Based on how close your and my VINs are, I wonder if they group them by delivery location (ie we're both in Scottsdale) - though, I don't really understand how/why that would be relevant, but just a thought! p.s. look fwd to seeing you around town! - - - Updated - - - Sigus, how...

I'm a newbie, and don't even have my car yet (6.5 days and counting!!). But tell me.....what happens when you totally run out of juice? I mean....if you don't pull over, will it just STOP? And then what....do you have to get a tow? Or is there a way to get a charge from someone? I'm...

Patience isn't my strong suit regularly....but it seems to be even LESS so since I order this dang car :biggrin: and I can't wait for it to get here! (6.5 days and counting!!!) So I've been lurking on this forum and wanted to 'brag' about my car with the rest of you folks, by adding a...
