    Alternative to 21" Turbines?

    I have the 255/40R20 PSS on mine. There is a slight rub in the front tires in reverse with the wheel turned close to either extremes. I don't mind it, but I was expecting the rubbing because others (e.g., lolachampcar) had mentioned it on previous threads. - - - Updated - - - It was indeed...

    Tesla Speed Demon on Mashable...

    Does anyone know how one can order the ADV1 wheels mentioned online?

    TPMS question

    Tesla introduces new features all the time. Though, I'm not sure if anyone outside of Tesla understand how feature requests are prioritized. For example, it seems to have taken years for the valet mode to be released. And seemingly, creep mode was introduced relatively quickly after people...

    Special spot in glove compartment -- for J1772 adapter?

    Does anyone have a February build? January build? Could you check the glove compartment? Curious.

    TPMS question

    The readout does say which tire (e.g., front passenger tire) has the problem (low on pressure). Unfortunately, there is no screen that shows the current pressure of each tire. This feature is commonly talked about and asked for when people talk about feature requests. Seemingly, the data is...

    TPMS question

    Correct. The TPMS sensor is the packaged as the air valve. So you'll have to remove the tire to get to the TPMS sensor/air valve. You can order new ones from the service center for $50 each -- very reasonable. They come in silver or black color.

    Special spot in glove compartment -- for J1772 adapter?

    I've had 2014 P85D loaners which had the cubby. Maybe newer cars have a different design that doesn't have the cubby hole?

    Special spot in glove compartment -- for J1772 adapter?

    I was surprised to find that my P85D doesn't have the J1772 cubby hole in the glove compartment either! I wonder why they changed the design. What's taking up that space now?

    P85D under-frunk photos

    Mine, too. Wonder why they left it in the frunk. Maybe it was an oversight?

    Key not found

    Similar thing happened to me this weekend. My two-month old P85D was getting washed and I placed the key in the cup holder (inside the car). After a little bit, the car locked itself with the key inside. Touching the car handle did not open the door. I had to call Tesla to get them to remotely...

    85D First Impressions

    Regarding the tow hook -- I'm told that there's a place underneath the frunk liner for the tow hook. When I took delivery of my Model S, the tow hook was sitting by itself in the frunk. I think it's a mistake that the tow hook is not in its rightful place (underneath the frunk liner). Talk to...

    Wheel-well liners and overall quality control

    I can relate to you wanting it right the first time around (I am the same way). If you're still unhappy, escalate up the chain. Tesla will work with you until you're happy. It is unfortunate that QC would allow these flaws to leave the factory. Please do escalate your concerns -- Tesla needs to...

    black alacantra

    My car is MC red w/ tan leather and black alcantara. I prefer this three-color palette to the four-color palette (with the white alcantara). The black flows well through the interior. But to answer the OP, yeah, the black alcantara is a recent addition.

    Starting up the car, put the reverse, creep mode on, and the brake does not work

    Update -- Tesla got back to me this afternoon after reviewing the logs. They think the problem was because I had pressed the accelerator pedal too lightly. Seems odd to me because I've had this car for multiple weeks now and I wasn't driving it differently this past weekend. But nonetheless, I'm...

    Starting up the car, put the reverse, creep mode on, and the brake does not work

    Also chiming in... It happened to me twice this weekend. Creep mode off. P85D delivered last month. SF Bay Area, so warm weather. 1st time: Saturday. On a downward incline. Put the car into (R)everse. Press accelerator, but nothing happens. The car rolls forward. I panic a little and press on...
