I assume that I picked my S85 up a few months before yours (October 2014). Unfortunately, by 35,000 miles I had many more mechanical issues including: Door handles replaced: 4 MCU Replace: 1 Drive units replaced: 1 Battery pack failure and replacement: 1 Changing system repaired, replaced: 3 I...

No issues after 2 years!! Unfortunately, I am getting ready to "undo" all of that work as I get ready to sell the car. Jeff

I just went to a local electronics store and purchased several matching ones. The guy was a Tesla fan and let me take them out to the car to see which fit.

2014 S85. Love the car but have had the following issues requiring time at the dealer over the past 3.5 years: 1) Trunk alignment visibly off center requiring time at a body shop. 2) All 4 door handles failed to open requiring replacement (needing 3 separate visits). 3) Battery pack failure...

Absolutely Not!!!!! This car has had more problems in the 2 3/4 years I have owned it than all of my other high-end cars combined. Now the touch screen is dead and I have to make another trip to the SC. If it was out of warranty, this repair would cost $4000. Really bummed that I took a 5...

I recently had the 2nd "annual service" in NJ and had a similar experience. It took 6+ hours to: 1) "update the software" : it was already at the latest version when I got there. 2) Adjust the alignment : I saw the alignment report from the computer and no adjustments were required. 3)...

It has happened to me since day 1 (2 years ago). I have 200 amp service and even before the Tesla, noticed voltage drops when turning on large appliances. My 50 amp circuit is brand new and very short distance from the main panel. Tesla replaced the charger but it made no difference. I just...

Chopr147: There is power in the microphone area. If you search my name, you will see a thread I started for that topic. If you are only installing the front camera, it is fast and easy. The wiring for the rear camera can be a pain.

The blue plastic clips holding the plastic panels to the car are very delicate. They are only about a buck apiece at Tesla but all of the showrooms are pretty far for me and/or closed on the weekends. I took one of the unbroken ones to an Auto-Zone store and found these: They are exact fit...

Fezzik, Back to the second of my questions: 2) Do you need to apply anything to the trunk grommet/rubber boot before you reinstall it to keep it watertight? Jeff

I only want detection, not laser shifting. Will it detect laser behind the nosecone? J

Fezzik, Very helpful, thanks! I have already used this guide to install a dash cam. I am getting ready to pull the trigger on installing an Escort 8500. 1) Did your Beltronics unit have separate receivers for Radar and Laser? The Escort seems to have one combined receiver and I wonder if it...

The large black/grey box you show in the first post is the "Radar/Laser Receiver" according to the Escort website. I was wondering how well it receives laser. I don't intend to install jammers. JG

Artsci, I am getting ready to take the plunge. Does the laser detector work well behind the nose cone? Since it does not have actual line of sight, I thought it might have degraded performance (laser, not radar). Jeff

I installed my front cup holder and wheel decals last weekend - they're really great.

I have been using a Thinkware 750 for 8 months and love it. I get HD front and rear feeds with incident and parking recording. GPS does NOT work through the windshield (but this is a good thing :) ). I wrote up my install experience at: Installation of a Radar Detector and Dashcam - I found...

I used the same detector in my previous car (BMW X6). There is a radar trap on my way to work and the internal detector goes off at the same location in the Tesla as it did in the BMW.

While I love this feature, I always set the distance to 6 or 7 car lengths.

Here are the After photos: One more thing about the Thinkware camera: I love the picture quality but there is an issue with the gps / speed sensor. I have this mounted directly behind the mirror in a position where the driver can't see it at all. At his location, the gps can't get a...

Installation of a Radar Detector and Dash-cam - I found switched power!!! I recently hard-wired my radar detector and dash-cam and wanted to share my discoveries. My toys: 1) Beltronics Pro 300. 2) Thinkware F750 Dash-cam with TWA-X500F750 rear camera First and foremost, I used the advice...
