Hi everybody. We all need to email [email protected] to express this disappointment. I did so today and got a response back saying they will look into it. The more of us that email the higher chance that a quick fix will come out.

Sorry for the blast, but we are Model S owners who traveled to Arnold,CA for the weekend but forgot to bring our charging equipment (including cord) and are running low on charge. Are there any gracious tesla owners in the area that would let us borrow their cord for a few hours, or have any...

20" TSW nurburgring wheels with mirror cut finish. Got them from Jason and getyourwheels.com and they came fully mounted, balanced, sensors etc (just had to inflate tires a bit as they deflate for shipping purposes). Swapped wheels no problem. Fashioned my own centercaps. If you want more...

It was definitely clickbait, but I took the bait because I always enjoy reading the ridiculous claims made by people that have complaints. Most of the items on the list he should have known going into purchasing a car in this price point. I certainly did and, after consideration of the points...

Saw an interesting piece this morning about front seats that pass the NHTSA "pull test" which, in all practicality, is useless in determining whether or not a front seat will collapse backward if you are rear ended, potentially killing a child sitting in the back seat. NHTSA requirements for...

Thank you for the inquiries, this item has been sold.

19" OEM Tires/Rims/TPMS/Lugs (only 24 miles) Original Stock 19" Set from VIN 90475. Tires are Michelin Primacy MXM4. Drove directly from Tesla Rocklin to auto detailer on delivery day, 24 miles, where they were swapped out for aftermarket wheels/tires. These are like new and in perfect...

I also got the TSW Nurburgring but in graphite grey and mirror cut finish. I think Jello's dark grey centercaps look fantastic, but I didn't have much luck with 3dcarstickers.com when it came to something with a silver/chrome background. The stickers I received had a fake "reflection" or...

Had the SC investigate, they say it's because there is a suspension-related part that didn't get fully painted at the factory and so as condensation builds (wherever it builds) and then gets blow onto this particular part, and runs along it, it creates surface level rust, which then can run out...

Thanks, Amped and Max. This gives me at least something to go on. I tried searching the forums prior to posting but couldn't find what I was looking for, so this gives me more meat for my search. I'll also let you know what the result is from the SC tomorrow. Cheers and thanks!

Hi everybody! I've had my 85D for a few weeks now and couldn't be happier! Coming into it I knew there are probably going to be little nits and nats that I need to address, the but the overall car is incredible! Has anybody noticed or had any experience with a strange orange liquid/dust trail...

Apache: Thanks for bringing this up. I am one of those who don't know what you mean about "impacts on degradation and SpC rate and taper." I also tried googling those terms to no avail. Do you have any handy information or links from with which I could start to educate myself? Thanks in...

I knew I wasn't crazy: If you read through the comments on the blog statement for the D, other forum members note the range of 295 for the 85D. So at one point, 295 was definitely quoted by Tesla.

Ok . . . so I could have sworn up, down and sideways that when the AWD was first announced, the 85D showed a rated range of 295 miles . . . I'm positive of this because I remember thinking that they were getting close to the magical 300 mile barrier. However, now the 85D shows only 265 miles...

KeithE: Looks beautiful! After driving on 20's for a while how do you like them? I'm considering doing the same for commute purposes. Also, do you have the coil suspension, or air? If air, what setting is this on? I'm trying to get a feel for how high the car rides with 20 inch wheels and...

Yep check the website, new seat colors as well as 19" wheels are now available for P85D.

Linkster, That is fantastic, thank you! Yes, very familiar with proper jack/stand procedures and am typically over cautious. When one orders the part (and, I assume, the specialized tool since I don't have one) from Openevse, does it come with instructions that are more detailed than the...

Offset, Linkster, or anyone, I'll be placing my order for S85D soon and have decided that I will get the 21's and be prepared for this potential inside tire wear issue. That said, I am curious at the difficulty level you encountered in replacing the arms (assuming you did it yourself) because...

Thanks. I emailed Cliff but haven't heard back yet. My budget is tight for the audio so I'm considering two options: A) Tesla's audio upgrade for $2,500. OR B) Start with Tesla standard sound system and install a Reus for $3,000 (assuming the $3,000 noted in these forums is starting from...

Linkster, thanks for the response. I'm curious . . did you do the upper control arm replacement that lolchampcar has detailed in these forums? If so, the tire life you are getting is an awesome result! Also, when you mentioned you purchased/swapped used 21s and three were bent . . .are you...

Does it make more sense to start with the standard sound and let Reus perform their magic, or is there a benefit to upgrading to Tesla high fidelity sound and then Reus layers on top of that? Trying to determine what to order with my new D. Thanks!

Hi! I'm interested in a Reus system and will be ordering my Model S soon. I'm pretty confused as to whether it's better to skip the Tesla high fidelity sound and just start with the standard sound, or to order the high fidelity sound and then Reus builds from there. The configurations and...

Ha ha! That's awesome you've already ordered the P85D. Nice . . . I'd love to know what's involved in changing the rear upper control arms . . . is it a kit? Based on some of your other posts something tells me you know a bit more than the average Joe when it comes to customizing your car...

All great information here on the forum about tire wear and 19's vs 21's. This is honestly my last remaining hesitation about the Model S for me, since I do about 25,000 miles per year. From everything I've gather from other threads and this one, this seems to be an issue that will simply be a...

Thanks, interesting perspective. The main reason why I ask is because my friend just bought a P85+ and I took a ride in it for about 10 minutes and I felt like the seats were pretty firm . . . but since he just got his he actually ordered it a few months ago, so I was trying to identify the...

Thank you all!

Hi all! Excited that I'm on the verge of pulling the trigger on a MS P85. This thread has been hugely informative and I appreciate everyone's input! That said, I'm trying to wrap my head around the warranties available and how that applies to my own situation. I will be driving the MS P85...

Hi all! I am on the verge of pulling the trigger on the MS. I've been scouring this board (and others) for information on seats, since I will spend a significant amount of time in it due to my commute. I've see the video and all the info from early 2014 about "improved seats" and also noticed...
