    Quebec Circuit Electric shortcoming

    Although I admire that Hydro Quebec is making an effort to help build-out the charging network in the province, it does have some shortcomings. In the city of Montreal you can get pretty cheap parking downtown if you plug your car in to one of the CE stations, if you're lucky enough to find one...

    Tesla's Snooker Ball colours and photo op

    My wife and I recently got our Model Y's... hers in red and mine in blue. I can't help but notice how similar in colouring the red and blue are to snooker balls in billiards. If only we could get a bunch more red y's and the other colours of the set and set up a Tesla photo shoot in a parking...

    Sentry Mode, or similar, for school busses.

    There is not a day that goes by where I don't see people burn past school busses loading and unloading with all the appropriate flashing lights and signage and some dummy drives through. In Quebec it's 9 demerit points plus a hefty fine. Imagine a Sentry Mode camera system and plate ID software...

    Accidental hitting of park break on drive stem at highway speeds...

    I've never actually done this but a few times on my last road trip I nearly depressed the park brake while changing hands or shifting in my seat. Has anyone actually pressed the brake button at speed? If so, what happens? At one point I was pretty convinced I accidentally tapped it quite hard...

    FW update causing system failures or just coincidence?

    My 2013 S has not once, not twice but thrice had system errors and failures after firmware upgrades. Has anybody ever experienced this? This is kind of my worst nightmare... car out of warranty getting upgrades that cause me to think I need a new vehicle even though, otherwise, it operates fine...

    Quebec City store opening any time soon?

    I know Tesla has procured a space to sell and service Teslas in Quebec City except the project seems dead in the water. Anybody know what's going on?

    Bypassing the TPMS

    Is it possible to turn off the TPMS? It's annoying. I don't need to install sensors in all my tires. I think I'll be fine without them as I have been in the past 30 years of driving.

    Model S expensive repair making me feel like I'm losing the faith...

    So a few weeks ago my HVAC heater died on a cold night returning from the country. Tesla says it's the DCDC Module and will cost $2400 plus labour to repair. The charge port is also needing to be replaced as charging dropped out occasionally. Cost for repair for that is close to 2000 with...

    Supercharge.info back dating....

    Is there are a way to set a specific date in history on the supercharge.info site to see which superchargers were online for that date? I know there's the "way back" feature which will take one on a long trek back from 2012 on up but I'd like some specific dates and available superchargers for a...

    Roadster Battery on Mars

    So Mr Musk is sending his Roadster to Mars presumably to have a vehicle when he arrives there in a few years. However, doesn't this launch and extended time on another planet risk bricking the battery?

    Delivery process and timing

    To those who've already gone through an S or X delivery how similar is the delivery process on the 3? Is it just a few minutes or does it still take a half hour and up?

    Centre screen failure after latest software update

    After running the latest software update on my 2013 S the main screen shuts off then on again by itself, sometimes losing nav, sometimes not. Seems I need a part, which is on backorder. Anybody else come across this?

    100 days or free for Australia.... any update?

    It's been about 100 days since Elon Musk wagered he could solve South Australias power problems. It was all the rage in the news at the time. Did it ever get installed? Did it solve the problem?

    On my third windshield of my 2013 S

    Anybody else broken their S's windshields repeatedly? I've had 12 cars before this and never broke a windshield but my S is on its third. Now this third one got struck by a little stone on the weekend and the injection repair didn't work so onto the fourth... perhaps stones are attracted to the...
