    East coast (ideally boston-area) stereo upgrade service?

    Thanks; I've exchanged messages with Cliff several times and even filled out an order form but he hasn't told me of any upcoming trips to New England and hasn't replied to my last couple emails asking about a New England install. Maybe he is away.

    East coast (ideally boston-area) stereo upgrade service?

    I have a P85D with the basic sound system. I declined to pay for the UHF with the plan to upgrade the stereo with an aftermarket service. I'm familiar with the Reus audio option but it seems like scheduling isn't easy for us new englanders since they are located in California. Are there any...

    Bugs in firmware 6.2

    I'm the original poster. Sorry for the lack of clarity in my initial post. What I meant is that with 6.1 and earlier versions, approaching the car when it's charged causes the charging port lock to release the J1772 adapter. This isn't a mistake-- it has happened virtually 100% of the days...

    Bugs in firmware 6.2

    Another 6.2 bug: when I approach the locked, charged car, the door handles present, but the charging adapter does NOT unlock in the charging port. The charge port light ring stays blue instead of white. Instead, I have to hold the trunk button on the key fob to unlock it. With 6.1, nearly...

    Bugs in firmware 6.2

    P85D, firmware 6.2. Some bugs that have reproducibly occurred in 6.2 that were NOT in 6.1 for me: - Nav bizarrely thinks an address on Commonwealth Ave (one of the major streets in Boston) in Boston, MA, is actually in West Concord, MA, EVEN THOUGH the address was pulled from my history and...

    Smooth stop difficulties after .139/.140 firmware?

    I have a P85D and noticed a much harder time coming to a perfectly smooth stop after the .139 firmware (I'm still waiting for the .140 firmware to be pushed to my car). There is a strong shake at the end of most stops as if one of the motors is coming to an abrupt halt. Did anyone else notice...

    Firmware 6.1

    Likewise, I received .139 when it was first released a couple weeks ago and I have NOT yet received .140. I've called and emailed Tesla twice about it but they don't seem to know why and only suggest that I take the car in to the service center to get a manual .140 installation. Have any P85D...

    Firmware 6.1

    P85D still waiting for .140... Even though my car is on a fast wifi network and has received all previous firmware updates quite early in the cycle (first few hours of U.S. reports, typically), my P85D still does not have .140. Is it possible something went wrong with the download? I did...

    Firmware 6.1

    Still no .140 P85D (with 19" wheels, though I don't think that matters), 0.139 firmware still. I have received every firmware update within a few hours of the earliest posting reporting the firmware on TMC, but my car hasn't received .140 yet even though it's been released for days. Did Tesla...

    HELP! J1772 Adapter stuck in Charge poirt locked in, Red Ring

    J1772 adapter removal problems I've also had many problems removing the J1772, even weeks after taking ownership of my P85D. Every morning I approach the car, wait for it to unlock, then disconnect the J1772 charger from the adapter, then try to pull the adapter out of the car. 80% of the...

    P85D missed its scheduled charge time

    P85D plugged in to my Chargepoint J1772 charger last night, just like it has for every night since I took ownership in December, did not charge at 3 am as scheduled. When I tried to use the app this morning to force a "start charge", it also did not start charging; tapping the start charge...

    Phone app can't connect to P85D

    Follow up: it turned out to be a problem with the 3G connection. When I entered the car, everything was fine except I noticed the nav map wasn't updating its graphics and the Internet radio couldn't load the next track either. So the phone was no longer on the Internet despite showing three...

    Phone app can't connect to P85D

    For the first time since I took ownership in December, my P85D can't be woken up by my phone. The car is set to "always connected". It's cold here (maybe 15 deg F) but it's been colder before and I connect by phone every day. Any others have this problem? Could it be a server issue or does...

    My 2 day old P85D suddenly died in the middle of an intersection

    I'm glad Osama and his family are ok, and am grateful that he shared the details of this incident with the forum community. To me, the most important questions are: 1) Did Tesla resolve the situation to Osama's satisfaction, and how did they do so (both mechanically and financially)? 2) What...

    Tesla: please use Google Maps for traffic-based navigation

    Wow, one day later and two pages of replies... I love this forum :) I sent an email to [email protected]. Don't expect a reply but will post it if I get one. It's very hard to do better than Google. Free, crowdsourced (for road speed aka traffic), and constantly updated by very smart...

    Tesla: please use Google Maps for traffic-based navigation

    How could our most-advanced-cars-ever manage to use Google maps for the maps appearance, but NOT use Google Maps's outstanding navigation to actually calculate a route and advise traffic? For this morning's commute, I had my phone running Google Maps side-by-side with the P85D's built in nav...

    P85D vs Horrid Winter Slush

    P85D, 19" winter tire package, horrible driving conditions tonight: several inches of fresh snow that turned to slush on the mostly unplowed roads and highways (weather forecast was much better than this!). I was blown away by the performance of the car under these conditions. About 30+ miles...

    Heated steering wheel. Am I going to get my hands on one?

    Yes, I took delivery Dec 29 in MA and was very happy to get the heated steering wheel (but no next gen seats, front or rear). I speculated in my delivery report thread that maybe Tesla was trying to balance out the love by giving fewer next gen seats to cars that got the heated steering wheel...

    Reus Systems coming to Mid-atlantic (Washington, DC and more) in January

    Just to clarify, Cliff told me the March 2015 Boston trip was distinct from the Jan 2015 DC trip, much to my >< :)

    Reus Audio upgrade for Model S stereos; TMC discount and Boston trip

    I'm quite happy overall with my P85D. Problems, in reverse order of seriousness, are: - Front passenger door requires much more force to close than the rear - Wind noise leaks around the passenger side glass triangle next to the A pillar - Stereo sound quality isn't great, even with the EQ...

    P85D delivery summary

    There were maybe 100 Model Ss (and one Roadster!) on the site in Watertown, MA. The majority were new cars. My rough estimate from walk around was maybe 30 P85Ds on the site. The DS told me they were delivering P85Ds non-stop for the past several days. I only saw one with next gen seats out...

    P85D delivery summary

    - P85D ordered in late November. Production started Dec 12, production was complete Dec 18, and I took delivery Dec 29, as promised from the day we ordered the car. Almost all options. 19" wheels for all the reasons discussed on this forum, including range and wear. Very impressed with the...

    P85D with wrong seats, but had to figure it out for myself

    Same thing happened to me, only even more odd. DS told me that rears of my new P85D were Next Gen, fronts were performance. I said "uhhh.... really? Because that would be pretty much a first based on all the data I've gathered from the Tesla forums and spreadsheet." He said "let me double...
