    Tesla Owner API Tutorial (All you need is your browser)

    I have a p85d with ludicrous that is showing p2 under perf_config using Remote S. Is this normal? Thanks

    2016 Model S Refresh Mega-thread

    Did anyone catch the last sentence on the refreshed model s page under Autopilot and the "new" Summon feature. Autopilot Autopilot allows Model S to steer within a lane, change lanes with the simple tap of a turn signal, and manage speed by using active, traffic-aware cruise control. Digital...

    Chassis CAN Logging To ASCII Text Plus Graphing

    I've probably dreamed this but I thought I read several months ago the suspension in the rear needed an adjustment. My service center knew I was going to do the swap myself and didn't mention it so most likely it doesn't require any change. Just checking.

    Chassis CAN Logging To ASCII Text Plus Graphing

    Sorka I just made the same tire swap and had the same observation. I have staggered wheels. Seems like I recall reading somewhere the staggered 21's require a suspension adjustment. Anyone know if my mind is playing games on me?

    "Met the X" yesterday...meh

    After having our model s for a year we really wanted to love the X. It would be replacing our Yukon xl. The real killer for us was towing capacity for our boat. We ended up going with a Land Cruiser.

    Performance of P85D with Ludicrous upgrade review

    I had not noticed this prior to the upgrade but now when I turn on max battery power it adds four miles to my rated range. As soon as turn it off they go away. I wonder what that's all about.

    Stop the Press! Tesla announces REAL HP numbers for P85D and P90L

    I have remained silent on this issue. As a plaintiffs attorney I feel,in my opinion, this is an open and shut case. The only real question is whether from an owner/attorney perspective to pursue this individually or as a class action. The real delay has been the availability/non availability of...

    New Launch Mode - firmware 2.9.40

    I was talking about traction control kicking in after my car does start to spin the tires. Like I said my tires have a lot of miles so new ones may not slip but I can assure you my tires initially break traction.

    New Launch Mode - firmware 2.9.40

    I think the hesitation you are experiencing is related to the traction control I previously alluded to taking over immediately after launch mode. Given my 19in tires have 32k miles on them, but when I use launch mode I feel the tires begin breaking and then traction control takes over and allows...

    Firmware 7.1

    This may have been mentioned before as I have missed a few post. While Tacc limits the speed when using auto steer on certain roads you can drive faster with the pedal and auto steer remains engaged on the restricted roads.

    Firmware 7.1

    Oh and it won't appear if the car is plugged in.

    Firmware 7.1

    You need to be in proximity of the car (I believe with the fob) and it will appear at the top of the app home page in the spot that usually gives you the status of the car. ie. parked, driving, charging

    Firmware 7.1

    The first two times I tried it the car opened the door before backing out. However since then it is opening the right side door instead of the left in which it is parked

    What's your 90%?

    Full range charge before leaving on trip. Flipped over 30k. Full charge was 240 with range mode off. Get about 217 at 90 percent. Late December p85d.

    New Launch Mode - firmware 2.9.40

    I've probably only tried it 4-5 times but I'm going to guess maximum benefit from this is going to be limited by traction. Given I'm on 19in tires with 28k miles but when launched there is an immediate tire slippage. Then you feel traction control kick in and then the power pick back up. I...

    New Launch Mode - firmware 2.9.40

    It actual does preload a somewhat substantial amount. Enough that it squats in the rear

    New Launch Mode - firmware 2.9.40

    Those are with max battery ready. You can see it shows 79 hp torqued up using launch mode when the brake is released. 89 percent SOC It feels quicker. Power tools still reads 3.5 0-60

    What's your 90%?

    My December 14 p85d with about 28,700 on the odometer is getting 217 at 90 percent with range mode off. Are the above p85d numbers with range mode on or off?

    Performance of P85D with Ludicrous upgrade review

    That is the power tools info. I was at a red light so I had to enable and then reenable 2-3 times. You can see the power build up before the launch. O-60 was recorded at 3.5 however we all know the accuracy of that and it also wasn't ideal road conditions. Tires and Car have over 28k miles on...

    Performance of P85D with Ludicrous upgrade review

    I did do one run with power tools and 77 percent charge. If someone wants to see the log pm me. Looks like it builds 56 hp before brake is released.

    Performance of P85D with Ludicrous upgrade review

    Yeah I saw that and laughed myself. That is just the first stage enabled. You still have to press the accelerator a second time and then release brake.

    New Launch Mode - firmware 2.9.40

    I would not be surprised to see .2 improvement. There is a significant torque build up. My wife and kids as well as myself can feel a noticeable difference. No way to actually measure other than power tools. Haven't tried that yet

    Firmware 7.0

    It worked while preparing and ready. Yes the lurch occurs each time. That is the torque buildup I was referring to.

    Yes it is 2.9.40. I'm not sure what he is doing differently. I just press the brake firmly. While holding brake press accelerator to floor and let off. The notification pops up. Then press accelerator to floor again and hold it. When brake is released car launches. You can only hold it the...

    Performance of P85D with Ludicrous upgrade review

    Works fine for me. You sure you have max battery power turned on

    Performance of P85D with Ludicrous upgrade review

    The max battery power must only be started to enable launch mode. It does not have to be ready

    Firmware 7.0

    You can just hold the turn stalk up or down without actually clicking it and it will work. This prevents having to manually turn it off after the lane change. A single tap does not appear to work however

    Firmware 7.0

    Well it definitely isn't ready for non beta city driving. They were clear on this. However highway driving works very well in my opinion. I experienced very little nag warnings at all. Drove 15 miles twice without ever having to touch the wheel.

    P85D Ludicrous Pre-Order Upgrade Available 9/25/15

    I wonder if the P85DL is still somewhat software limited with the upgrade so that the P90DL can be top dog or for reliability reasons. There were rumors of 2.8 0-60 before the 90 came out.
  45. K

    My P85D doesn't go past 133MPH. I thought the limit was 155MPH?

    My dec build was corrected several weeks ago. I had to bring the issue to the attention of the sc.
