    Best All Weather Tires for Model Y 20" Induction Wheels

    Discount Tire has some business arrangement with Vredestein. Their tires don't show up on the selector but you can buy them by calling.

    Theater mode not available since V11

    Another vote for Patsy. It's hilarious to see the Monty Python foot come down, then the car farts, then the theater icons show up.

    AP1 stops working on road trips after a few hundred miles. Fine the next day.

    Had it in for service today. They removed the camera and cleaned everything. Checked the defog circuit. Basically did nothing that I think will solve my problem. Service man said they needed to do this before they do the next step, which is to replace the enter camera module. Of course if...

    AP1 stops working on road trips after a few hundred miles. Fine the next day.

    I bought my S new in 2016. One of the last AP1 builds. Autopilot works fine if I don't stray too far from home. Milwaukee to Chicago and back is no problem. Road trips are another story. After a few hundred miles it just stops working. No cruise control or steering wheel icons. It sees...

    A $1000 increase November 4

    Tesla just increased the price $1,000, so $57,990 for long range and $62,990 for performance. It also changed for inventory cars. I feel fortunate I ordered an inventory car last week. Pick it up Saturday.

    Trying to sell with new battery and mcu2

    For my post refresh AP1 Red 90D with 54,000 miles, Tesla offered $34,000. AutoNation $41,000. Tesla knows my exact configuration but AutoNation did not know I have Pano roof, air suspension, and UHF sound when they quoted. They knocked off $300 because I only have one key. Didn't ask about...

    Y AC and heat fails

    You've been on this site for more than 10 years and only have 5 posts? Must be some kind of record. Don't waste one by replying :D

    Something interesting happened with my Service Loaner and Autopilot

    Seems to be a semantics problem here. Cars manufactured between end of September 2014 and end of October 2016, roughly 55,000 to 175,000 VIN, have a single camera Mobile-Eye with AP1. It does a semi-automatic lane change. Move the turn signal and the car steers itself into the adjacent lane...

    P85d vs Long Range Plus. Will I miss the performance?

    400 miles would make my drives so much better. On my Florida-Wisconsin treks I could avoid the downtown Atlanta underground parking lot and the Chattanooga airport superchargers. Heading up the east coast I could skip Savannah airport. If I didn't have to make these long drives I'd spend...

    2020 Model S Long Range Plus

    It's absolutely worth the extra $20K. It seems like an order of magnitude acceleration increase going to performance. It's unbelievable. I wouldn't get it because at my age I don't want to hurt my friends, but mostly because the extra 43 miles would make a big difference for trips - charging...

    Why is Tesla not using used cars as loaners?

    I got a 2014 P85+ loaner Thursday in Highland Park. Returned it Friday. They had to calibrate my radar under warranty. I've had 5 or 6 loaners in the last 6 years. One time I waited there 1½ hours while they did annual service. 3 years ago after they replaced my windshield they put my car on...

    Florida Sun Pass Transponder?

    I mount mine horizontally with one suction cup in the black and one in the clear glass. Works great. For I-Pass I mount it vertically completely in the black. September 2016 build 90D.

    Picking up an inventory P100D next weekend!

    Before you get a 911 for your play car, test drive a Model 3 Performance. No noise but the handling is quite a bit snappier than the S. And then you have a complete set. :D

    Poll.. do you use navigation every time you drive?

    I use the NAV screen all the time to check for traffic, not because I need the routing feature, although I often put in the route so I know how many minutes before I get to my destination. I'm extremely punctual by nature.

    What to do next? Coming off a 90D Lease

    Since you bought it in March 2016 you have the classic fascia and AP1.0. $62K is a fair price today give or take a few thousand, but 6 months from now, probably not so much. I would wait tell February before making a decision. Keep checking EV-CPO.COM.

    2018 Model X P100D for sale

    You can't blame people for being curious. Tesla taking a $150,000 car away from someone without adequate compensation is a huge deal. I also paid cash and if Tesla wanted it back they would have to pry it out of my cold dead fingers, or pay me lots of money.

    2018 Model X P100D for sale

    Based on post #34 it's seems a lot more serious than that. Probably has something to do with financing. They took/repossessed the car when he was trying to sell it. They didn't make the problem go away. He hired a lawyer. This is more than a few thousand dollar problem. Hope it works out...

    Teslas in Movies & TV

    A model S was on Reverie last night, driven by Alexis. When she approached the car it looked like she clicked on the fob and there was a double chirp. Can the S be programmed for that or did the sound editors go overboard? After she drove off she was followed by her disgraced ex-partner who...

    Need some help on P100D vs 100D

    Yeah. Pretty much that same except for the fewer miles. 2018 VIN is probably 10,000 higher. Don't think there have been any improvements during that gap. I guess I just like red:).

    Sanity check: Going from 75D Ap2 to 90D Ap1?

    You are getting exactly my car except with 21" wheels. I had some camera issues that would disable AP occasionally but after they replaced the camera I've had no problems. AP1 has been great for long trips. It's really all I need. You get air, UHF, and Premium too. I think it will improve...

    Summon activates mysteriously

    The service department got back to me. They said the key fob activated summons at 7:33 PM. At that time I was sitting on a chair in my family room watching TV. The fob was in the cargo pocket of my shorts, which is quite loose. The fob must have worked it's way down between my leg and the...

    Summon activates mysteriously

    I have no 3rd party apps. I was wearing cargo shorts and both the phone and keys were loosely in the pockets. The car backed up 40' so the front wheels were on my driveway and the back wheels were on my neighbors lawn. I didn't take a picture. Don't want to recreate the scene and panic my...

    Summon activates mysteriously

    Last night I walked past the car (S90D, AP1) in my garage. Garage door was closed. Since the fob was in my pocket the handles presented as usual. 10 minutes later my wife asks why the car is in my neighbor's yard. Our garage door was closed. My phone notifications showed: summon activated...

    EZ-Pass transponder mounting on refreshed nosecone-less Model S

    Oops. I take back what I said. In my first Tesla the transponder was mounted to the right of the black dots. On the 90D it works only in the black area and not on the glass next to the black area. It works fine in the location pictured below. Sorry for my brain cramp. :confused:

    EZ-Pass transponder mounting on refreshed nosecone-less Model S

    I mounted mine in the vertical orientation just to the right of the black area. It worked every time. Tesla replaced my windshield and mounted it in the black area. It worked 1/3 of the time. I moved it back where it was before and it works perfectly again. I had read about the best placement in...

    First-Time Buyer: Must-Have Options?

    I didn't have much luck with the wiper defroster and nozzle heaters so I stopped trying to use them. I would only get subzero if I regularly had back seat passengers. I would take the heated steering wheel if it were free but I wear gloves in the winter anyway so I didn't really miss it. We...

    First-Time Buyer: Must-Have Options?

    The new price model sure changes things. PUP won't be as popular since power liftgate is standard. Same for Pano over glass roof for $2000. I bought PUP mainly for the liftgate. I wouldn't get PUP now. I've had SAS and coil and I prefer coil just for long term maintenance. I've had premium...

    PUP Without Liftgate?

    Count me as another who bought PUP for the liftgate. I'm surprised the PUP is still $3500. Wouldn't surprise me if they reduced that price. I wouldn't pay $1000 for it now. I've never kicked on Bio-defense except to see how to do it. Probably never will. Personally, I think it would...

    Glass Roof Standard with $2000 difference to Sunroof?

    Up until a couple days ago the glass roof was a $1500 option and the panoramic roof was a $2000 option. Panoramic had been a $1500 option for years. I read that 80% buy the Pano option. So the question in my mind is not the price of the Pano option but why the glass roof is free now and was a...

    POLL: Your Evaluation of the Exterior of the Model S

    I loved the original design, although I also got fooled by the Ford Fusion occasionally. Took me a while to warm up to the refresh. Last week I got my old car as a loaner.

    CPO 90D or P85D?

    The 90D has ~40 miles more range. Some owners can only charge the P85D to 245 miles after 2 years. I don't think I have ever needed to floor the accelerator for either the 90D or even my old 85, although I have done it for fun. The P85D acceleration in loaners I've had impresses people way...

    P100D Performance Questions, Sport -VS- Ludicrous

    The P85D does 0-60 in 3.1s in Insane mode and 4.0s in Sport mode, which will seem like a 90D. Gotta think the P100D will be similar. Sport mode will seem like a slug (like my car :()
