    2022 Model X (5 Seater) - Steering Wheel Issue - Turning signal sometimes doesn't work

    I am having the same problem on my 6-week old 2023 Model X. I think I've experienced it about 5 or 6 times. It seems to me it's always been with the left signal. I have what I am afraid might be the first of many service appointments scheduled for this next week. Where is NHTSA when you want...

    Model Y RWD Charging to 100%

    I have a 2014 RWD Model S, and have always followed the conventional orthodoxy of avoiding charging to 100% unless necessary for the trip. But I was reviewing my online owner's manual recently, and was startled to see the recommendation for daily charging to 100%. As you can see in the attached...

    eMMC repair question: broken glass in dashboard display, replaced with plastic - is this normal?

    When I referred to the border area having an irregular shape, what I was referring to wasn't the overall oval shape, but rather the irregular undulations which appear on the bottom border, but which are absent from the top border. I wonder why these exist - and if they exist for a reason, why...

    eMMC repair question: broken glass in dashboard display, replaced with plastic - is this normal?

    To be honest, it isn't really the bubbles or delimitation which I am asserting appeared right after the eMMC repair - it is the very existence of that oddly shaped, clear, irregular border area around the entire instrument cluster. Many other posters referred to the condition in the photo as...

    eMMC repair question: broken glass in dashboard display, replaced with plastic - is this normal?

    Doanster1, I am sure that the whole "layer" of goo and stuff was not visible until right after I had the eMMC repair done. That layer - which appears as an irregularly shaped "clear tape" around the instrument cluster - seems quite obvious, with or without any "bubbling" - I'm pretty sure I...

    eMMC repair question: broken glass in dashboard display, replaced with plastic - is this normal?

    OK, thanks for the info, xAgyex. By the way, my Model S is a bit older than yours, as autopilot had not yet been announced when mine was delivered. The only camera in my car is the rear view camera for backing up.

    eMMC repair question: broken glass in dashboard display, replaced with plastic - is this normal?

    That is an excellent reference. Thank you for the post! And.... I just found something else in there which supports my original contention that my original instrument cluster screen was made of glass. To find this reference: 1) Click vocr's link above to "Instrument Cluster - TeslaTap". 2) In...

    eMMC repair question: broken glass in dashboard display, replaced with plastic - is this normal?

    dmurphy, thanks for explaining that the instrument console has always been plastic. Now I understand how my theory about the source of the broken glass doesn’t make sense. One question - when you refer to the MCU2 upgrade including two screens, are you referring to a new instrument cluster...

    eMMC repair question: broken glass in dashboard display, replaced with plastic - is this normal?

    Gaswalla, thanks for your reply. Sorry if I didn’t communicate well, but I don’t understand exactly what you are referring to when you say “the story about the glass and plastic and stuff doesn’t make sense at all”. I guess I used the wrong terminology in referring to the “dashboard display...

    eMMC repair question: broken glass in dashboard display, replaced with plastic - is this normal?

    I have a Model S which was delivered in September 2014. I had the eMMC (but not the MCU) replaced in May 2021. I didn't notice any issue right after the eMMC repair, but a few days later I noticed a few cubes of broken glass in the driver footwell area, then a few days later I noticed that the...

    Preconditioning error

    I've had the same problem occur at least twice this month. Furthermore, afterwards, I couldn't get my heater to work at all for the duration of that trip. I took it in to the service center and they couldn't find any problem. I did get what I considered a very WEAK response from the service...
