Good question. Our 3/24/2016 MXP90DL now has 82+k miles and 20" rims and when new a 100% charge was 257 miles. I recently did a 100% pack ballance and got 230 mile charge. Now as for full drive on 100% milage I have to say I never have done this. I really want to, but running out of power...

Just had my MCU1 replaced under warranty. I wanted to have the MCU2 installed and thought it would be worth the cost. But a month ago it was not available to my MX 2016 AP1. This is what I understood would be different. 1st I would loose the FM radio. AM never came with the car. So a...

After 4 years my rims looked bad all around. Got them repaired and repowder coated. Turns out I was missing that small piece of plastic around the valve stem. Kind of hard to find any info on those. Used every search word I could. I can now help you replace any of your missing pieces. These...

The fact that my MCU1 screen slows down a bit on screen refreshments in navagation after SW updates is the only reason I want to upgrade to the newer chip. I have the early AP1 car and i am not looking for any upgrades to AP2. I just want screen refresh and browser to load and work. It would be...

Michael, great story. I think I have tried this in our MXP90DL a few years ago. For as much as that cost I thought I would be doing it all the time... grin. I think however I remember doing it a bit differently than you posted. I think I remember doing exactly each step like you say. What I...

I had to look this up. After rereading this I feel my original reply was correct. Here you can read for yourself. Enjoy Can an Aftermarket Part Void My Car Warranty? - Consumer Reports News

Good question rainforest, not sure if you will find a fast answer on tesla forum. But we have another thing in our favor. It was something put into law to all car manufacturers a while back. Car companies cannot force a out of warranty issue on consumable parts used on cars they build. The only...

I would agree it should already be in the car, but I am sure they are trying to keep the cost of the car as low as they can. I will bet that in 4 more years we will see more premium add ons as finish building up infrastructure like Gigafactory 1 and all. Tesla will be able to make the 12v lipo...

Q Quality may not be as much in play as to how hard you us its power running more accessories and charging other devices. The replace battery message comes up once the cars systems sees a smaller gap between charge and discharge (SOC) of 12v battery. The number of lead acid cycles are 600 to...

Yeah, the tesla 12v battery is not as big as what might be in a f-150 or gas SUV. After 600 to 700 cycles of charge the lead battery is pretty much spent. When I took ours out of the tesla it was showing swelling on the sides.

free is not always free. not knowing when or where the replace battery message is going to popup I find that troubling to me to then make appointments and time lost to be doing other things. Like I stated in my post that this cost may not be for everybody. Peace of mind and stronger...

not that long. in 10 min I had all the frunk removed. then about 15 min I had the 12v battery out, simple if you remove battery bracket bolts. I was not in a hurry rather I was enjoying seeing all that was there behind the tub.... I spent a little time detailing everything making it look new...

Just sharing. In 3 years we had 2 batteries replaced by Tesla. Just had our 3'rd message popup and this time the decision was made to upgrade the 12v lead acid battery with the 12v Ohmmu lipo from Amazon. 12V Lithium Battery for Tesla...

If I recall correctly. We received a message from Tesla saying if we wanted to upgrade our MX P90DL battery for the new 100 battery pack we could. The cost would be, 2 years ago, $20,000.oo I have 41k miles on our 3/24/16 and when new a 100% charge gave 252 rated miles. Just this week we did...

Elon/Tesla if you are reading, here is my wish list for some software: 1. Conditioning feature: I want to be able to set my departure time at, say 7 AM, hit "yes" on the popup warning me that this will result in more electricity cost, and........ You made a great post on how to get more out...

You can find 3 on eBay right now. selling for $36.00 each plus shipping. search tesla pin.

I guess the line is moving good now. vin # 67x is now February or early March. Guess I better get ready now.

Something is happening. "My Tesla" page updated to February or early March for delivery. vin# GF00068x P90DL with 20" wheels.

Update to my reply a few posts ago. What a difference a day makes. Our car is very close to the first post here. 6 seat option and 20" wheels for the more tow weight might be any difference. We did have a vin # GF00068x and we now have an estimate on delivery, February or early March. It's...

You can see the headlights in this video Meet Model X - (edited version, full HD) - YouTube

I did look at the Vin numbers and it had a GF before the numbers and I think that they are Sig cars. They said these were fresh off the line and that is what is running right now. Does that help? - - - Updated - - - The color we picked was there as well, turned out we were happy how it...

The 29th Tesla hosted a Meet Model X event. Here is a video of it. Meet Model X - (edited version, full HD) - YouTube

Meet Model X. (edited version) full HD - YouTube We had a chance to get in and around 4+ MX's all P90D L's. This was a no holds barred event. All the help from specialists about the car and features. That was a fast 2 1/2 hours. Here is a short video of what it looked Luke.

A very good event. A good crowd but not so many that you couldn't get to the cars. I had a question about the falconwing doors about the Windows. I wanted to know how far they rolled down. Knowing that sensors might be in the way I was happy to see that the Windows went down more than 2/3rds...

Did they do this sporting effect to help the autopilot camera to see the lines in the road better at night and bad weather?

Maybe something to consider. The folks here who have low production numbers but no email to get ready might have a lot to do with what type of X was ordered. The production numbers seem consistent but the email letters are more confusing in these posts. So adding more info might bring this...

It seemed to me an option that may become more useful in the future with more 2nd and 3rd party charger going online. Another reason to get it when you order is from what I had read you will not be able to order it later. It is something different than the MS where you can pay extra and have...

I received 2 quotes from different places. With 3A I asked for MX P90D L and with adding it as our 4th car and pushing deductions up to. $1000. Each I was told $1900 a year. Then asking Farmers what they offer I found a better deal. We have our houses insured with them and we would receive...

Not sure, but it makes good sense. They are running the Sig cars now. Once production starts it will be easy for them to run your car with the other full option cars in your group because all the robots are already configured for all those options and the line does not have to stop to...

Someone was listening. Wow, big news that the 85 battery pack for the Model X will now have an upgrade option to the New 90 battery pack. I am not sure of the distance specs for Model X but 230 miles was posted once. Reports are the new battery pack 90 will offer 15 more miles to the total...

Wow, thx for the reboot my brain needed. Ever since I retired every day has been Saturday. I can now see how I have been fooling myself about not being effected by waiting. I felt I was typing a mistake but had no notes near me. Anyway my message stands, I'll take a bigger battery please.

I don't want to share my idea/plan to change your mind. Non of us knows how things will roll out. I was never a guy who would stand in a line for three days to get a new phone. With that said. I have been waiting almost 10 years for a Tesla. In 2005 I loved what I saw in the S. I passed on...

The Model X will not be used as a in town drop off for the kids car. We will not be using 7 full size people either. Most of the time only two will be regular driver, riders. At times another couple for going to dinner or day to two day road trips off the main routes. The extra battery...

Yes, if I could select 120kwh battery, I'd do it. Done, it's that simple.

Thank you Paul and Hill, I can see that it will feel like family here with everyone being like minded and willing to invest into something worthwhile. Since the last time here I found myself motivated in finding out more on what's for sure to be fully functional by the time I get my "X" and...

Hello, my name is Gary. It's been only 22 days since I placed my reservation. I was at the unveiling of the X the first night it showed in San Jose at the Santana Row showroom. So my wait has been long but sweet. I'll say that my idea was to not be the first but to wait for maybe some of the...

I have been waiting 4 years now. I will have to imbrace the wait. I am hoping that with my one to two year wait will bring many wonderful upgrades. Waiting for a total of 10 years now seems like a blink. I just want to still be breathingvwhen my number comes up. I know ill put 20,000 miles...
