    Not so funny ... as half the world is now on the 2nd of April ... Very late for a global April's fool joke!

    Am I the Only One....?

    Android Auto using MirrorLink (is that what you mean?) uses in cars (BMW, Mercedes, VW) only approved apps and requires a cable USB connection... You can use Glympse, some car navigations (not google maps) ... I have it in my car and I don't use it, it's waste of Money (but I can't speak for...

    Air suspension

    Active suspension works only with the air option. I don't know the plans by Tesla are but others are doing active dynamic suspension i.e. the outer suspension are harder in bends. I think there is room for enhancements by software. If you are going for full pressure on the tires (max. load /...

    TeslaFi.com

    Jdeck - I'm playing around with the TeslaFi now for 3 weeks. Well done! What I'm wondering of: The Charge Efficiency at my location is only 47-50%. I'm using a Tesla charger which is powered by 3 phase 230V (between phases 400V). Is the calculation based on 115V? The current limit was set to...

    How did your V8.0 update go?

    Mid year is not my favorite time to plan a visit to Australia ... This is Winter in Australia? If you are in the western part of Germany (Cologne, Rhine, Mosel, and all other famous wine valleys) ... I can advice some nice places!

    How did your V8.0 update go?

    And the best thing: The name of the train in Germany: ICE aka. internal combustion engine in English (Germish ;) for InterCityExpress) This EV train accelerates in a minute (so my impression ... may be longer) to 300km/h (max. speed 330km/h, permanent power: 8000kW) Enjoy your next trip to...

    Firmware 8.0

    What he (EM?) said is one thing ... this is written on the linked page: Enhanced Autopilot Enhanced Autopilot adds these new capabilities to the Tesla Autopilot driving experience. Your Tesla will match speed to traffic conditions, keep within a lane, automatically change lanes without...

    Firmware 8.0

    Scan is much better than in 7.1 where we got only channel numbers and you had to guess which DAB channel is for which region! But you are right: The reception is much weaker than before (I think that is not only a scan problem) ... that's also true for FM. And I miss the station logo and media...

    Firmware 8.0

    Anyone seen this: Autopilot ? Full Self-Driving Hardware on All Teslas from Tesla Motors on Vimeo Standard Safety Features These active safety technologies, including collision avoidance and automatic emergency braking, will become available in December 2016 and roll out through over-the-air...

    How did your V8.0 update go?

    Sorry I forget to mention: You are right. We have to (should) be very disciplined driving on the right lane when not overtaking as this enables high speed driving on the left lane (for people not used to it dangerous as they misjudge speed of approaching cars ... can tell you ... I had some...

    How did your V8.0 update go?

    I just noticed today that the car will not bypass on the motorway on the right side when cars on the left lane driving above 60-70km/h (not sure about the speed) if the adjusted speed is higher (i.e. 150km/h). This is a really handy feature to be complaint to the rules (especially in Germany...

    Software V8 Media Player Cover Art (TuneIn)

    As well as for European (and Australia, China, Japan?) DAB+ (Digital Audio Broadcasting) which showed cover arts in 7.1. DAB+ implementation lacks also of additional services (News, ...) But major improvements in channel search! My feeling is that DAB+ reception became weaker by that upgrade...

    Firmware 8.0

    ... we paid also more which is not only because of the shipment ... And European insurance companies honour this as many car are stolen (I think BMW X5 is therefore one of the expensiv cars to insure for theft). Anyhow: I agree to K-MTG ... this should be standard for such a car! I just did...

    Firmware 8.0

    Yes! Opens and closes automatically (from remote control, key of charger, touch panel etc.)

    Firmware 8.0

    Newbie question: Is there a way to accelerate the delivery of the update - i.e. reboot computer? I have seen some updates on European S with version 2.40.21 ... but it is not yet offered to my 1 week old car. Thanks clemens5255

    Tesla Referral Program

    Just driving the first week in Germany. A big grin in my face. Drove from Hamburg to Bonn (450km/280mi) with 1 supercharger visits. After a rest with coffee I arrived totally relaxed with 66% power left! No other car (EV or ICE) can cope with that.
