Was out shopping and when I left home it wasn't working. When I came back to the car from the store both XM and Tunein were back. No update, no manual reboot, no magic incantations. What makes you think that FSD will ever be reliable enough to use when they can't fix simple bugs like these...

Its gone again! What you say? How can that be? Worse this time. Tunedin is also gone. No selection in the settings for either service exist now. This happened overnight and not due to an update. How could anyone ever believe that FSD will be trustable when they cant even get the...

My XM is now back. A couple of days ago I deleted my WiFi connection to my home per the suggestion by davezforce. I didn't expect this to work and it didn't. I did the scroll wheel reset and still no luck. I did the power off included version of this and still no change. Drove the car a...

I might try this but the downside is that I cannot get updates unless the car is connected to WiFi.

I have tried several more times to do the reset and no luck. Tried it with the charger cable connected and disconnected, sitting in the drivers sear during the 5 minute power off and leaving the car during that time. I exchanged several messages with Tesla service and concluded with having...

This did not work for me and I will probably try it again later. I am glad it worked for you. If an operating system takes longer than 20ms beyond the time it takes to spin up the disk they are doing it wrong. Think about all the devices you use that take longer than 20ms to boot and yes they...

Tmeister: That was a good idea and it was one I didn't think of. Unfortunately there is no entry for Sirius/XM on that menu anymore in my car. And it was acting weird. When I turned off Radio it greyed out all the other entries. I turned it back on and they all came back. The only one I...

Recently got an update to 2020.48.37.6 on my 2013 Model S. I had been listening to some podcasts and had not noticed that S/XM is gone until this morning. And I mean gone. Like the car never had it and doesn't even have the satellite radio. If you let your subscription lapse or the car gets...

70%->10% is better for a couple of reasons. If you charge at a Super Charger your charge time will be less by around 10 to 15 minutes. The worst wear on the battery comes from going to high states of charge and leaving it there. The next worst thing you can do is leave it at empty for an...

When I converted my 85 Mazda RX-7 to plug in electric (2010) this was one of the frequently asked questions. It seems like a kind of stupid question because nobody ever asks that about any ICE car because it never does. In the case of the RX-7 I spent about $20000 to make an 80 mile range EV...

That is a truly screwy issue. I only have to drive about 15 miles from where I live to have no cell service of any kind. Local radio still works as does the USB and bluetooth audio. And the turn signals audio works. When the cell service is gone none of the streaming services can work. I...

I've been driving EV's since 2011, my first being a conversion I did myself of a 1985 Mazda RX-7 to 100% battery Electric. That car had only a 16 kwh battery and so the range was a maximum of 80 miles under optimum conditions (200 wh/mile). I could drive it like a madman on the worst days and...

The turn signal sound is generated in the car, not a server back at Tesla. Reboot your center console to get the turn signal sound back. I suspect you have a hardware issue and in order to make sure they pay attention to you don't mention that the sound system is not working, just stress the...

(Apologies if you also saw this on Teslas forum.) This probably also applies to Model X. I haven't seen this issue anywhere else except when trying to play podcasts under Tunein. My commute is only about 15 minutes so it takes me several days to get through an hour or longer podcast. Usually a...

I received 2.52.22 last week and was hopeful that it has fixed my navigation complaint of not believing that there are speed limits greater than 65 mph. I have not had a chance to verify if this bug still exists but will get to it sometime soon. My new bug is with the sound system and has to...

I suspect that you don't have enough information about the instrumentation to be able to tell how much battery degradation you are experiencing. The SOC% would need to automatically re-calibrate itself as the battery degrades or it would not be able to tell you an actual %. The assumption of...

I have driven enough to know that at posted speeds of 70 and below the planner gets it right within just a couple of percent. It is only on higher speeds that it just ignores the speed limit and assumes 65. For it to get it right at 70 but fail so badly at 80 shows that they are computing the...

My car got it's update earlier this week and I was able to retest what it believes is the speed limit on I-90 between Rapid City and the Murdo SD super charger. And 8.0 still believes the speed limit is 65 mph. Heading east out of Rapid City I set the Nav for Murdo SC as soon as the speed...

You can't look into every cell in the paralleled group unless you provide a way to disconnect every cell from the paralleled group. This would add a lot of cost and a rather large increase in failure modes with no advantages. Fortunately you don't need to. If a cell shorts and blows the fuse...

I assumed the range per charge calculator having a 70 mph limit was for marketing reasons. Your range is going to go down dramatically at speeds above that. But I suppose in California 70 would seem plenty fast and for most of the country as well. I think I see a little over 400 wH/mile when...

I've had my 2013 Model S for 9 months now and have put 15000 miles on her. About 6000 of those miles were during two long road trips with another coming up in late November. What I have learned is that the charge estimator works really really well except in places where the speed limit on the...
