    Model X 12v Battery Replacement Frustration (long-winded)

    That's good advice - the previous post above this one. I called roadside when my battery died. They did their "jump start" so I was able to drive to the service center. They may not have batteries in stock but you may get other options like Uber credits or even the elusive loaner car...

    taking delivery of 2017 X 75D

    Check the outer seals around the falcon wing doors. Lots of owners reporting that Tesla doesn’t cover these under warranty (cosmetic). Some have been lucky however.

    Lease Assignment?

    That’s a good double check as ThomasD suggested to verify with your leasing company. Unless their policies changed in the past 2 years, I know that US Bank and Tesla Finance both remove the original name from the lease and the new owner assumes all responsibility. Don’t know what other banks...

    How to lease return during covid?

    Have you tried their lease return email: [email protected] I emailed them about my return approx. 45 days out and got a response the next day on the return process. My lease is up on 8/20 and through the email address above they have guided me on the (now) virtual lease inspection and...

    Tesla Starts Charging for Diagnosing Noise Related Issue

    I don't see a follow up from the OP, but I will post my experience with this same issue at Costa Mesa. My estimate invoice had the same 97.50 charge for diagnostics on an issue with a front suspension rattle I had on my vehicle. The service advisor wanted me to acknowledge the estimate...

    Lease FSD depreciation costs seems high?

    This may be more of a model X/S thing. I know several folks who are very thankful that they leased theirs. They get to literally walk away from the early generation battery packs, the 'slow' MCU 1.0, AP1, etc.... It was compounded even more when the prices of new teslas were lowered, so...

    2017 Model X P100D 6 seater $1367/mo (incl CA tax) LEASE TAKEOVER

    How certain are you that the free supercharging transfers to the next owner. Would you mind posting the screen shot from your Tesla page under the "supercharging" section to verify through that verbiage that the supercharging does in fact transfer? TIA

    Tesla Model X 100D for sale

    Hard to tell from the pics, but it doesn't look like the tow package is there????? With the tow package shouldn't the receiver be visible?

    Look what I found in my back seat after a service visit

    ...could be worse, they may have used it to pick up parts from another SC..........

    carbon fiber vs ash wood decor

    Well technically, the carbon option is still available. One just has to step up into the P model to get it.

    Energy usage of TSportline 22" forged vs stock 22" black onyx

    It may be your new tires that are the bigger contribution to the lower wh/mi. Taking the tires out of the equation, and using the wheel weight data provided on Tsportline's website, the difference between stock 22's and the MX117 for a set of four is about 38 lbs total. 38 lbs is like a...

    Supercharger - Santa Ana, CA (12 V2 stalls)

    There's now an attendant posted at this location, but i'm assuming they are only there during the day/peak hours. I saw the attendant station while driving by. Anyone know the logistics of supercharger attendants? Tesla employee? Mall employee? Contractor?

    Ahh ruined the white interior

    I am not claiming to be an expert by any means, but I have seen recommendations from certified child passenger safety technicians (yes, a CPST is a real thing) that putting anything under a car seat - towel or mat - is not advisable. Biggest reason is that the towel or mat may alter the...

    Navigation Screen too prominent in V.9

    I haven't had enough time to prove/dis-prove this but it seems that if you call up the camera using the bottom row buttons, the rear view image will appear in the lower half of the screen. If you put the car in R, the camera will auto appear in the upper half of the screen. Anyone else notice...

    Tesla crashed my Tesla Model X today which was delivery day!

    I suppose it's a good thing that they offered you the 4 year maintenance package, versus nothing. I personally don't think it's that great of a deal.....it's more of a nice gesture. It can be better. You really don't get much in the 4 year maintenance plan when you really look at what is...

    DIY temporary rear window

    Definitely applaud you on your craftiness, but the safety-minded side of my brain has compelled me to reply to this as a caution. That plexi will easily turn into a guillotine in an accident, no matter how much gaffers tape you use. I hope this is very very very temporary. If you have...

    Yellow ring around Main Display?

    I just called about getting my screen replaced due to the yellow rings, they said the replacement cannot be performed via mobile service. Costa Mesa, CA service center. What service center did you use? Thanks.

    Looking to lease take over or buy a Model X (90D or 100D) or Model S P anything

    How firm are you on ap2? I’ve got an X 90D white/Black perforated leather (carbon trim upgrade) with pup, upgraded radio, cold weather, 22 inch wheels, and 6 seat config; but it’s got ap1. The tow package is the only option I don’t have. Looking for someone to take over the lease from US...

    Looking for replacement X. What VIN is OK?

    Probably not the point of this thread either but how'd you find an inventory model x? Nevermind, I mis-read your original post and thought you had an inventory car already in mind......oops

    Tesla Model X Moments

    Those times when strangers approach and want to talk about the X...........I usually start by telling them it's the new model Prius. . Judging by their response/reaction, I will then proceed accordingly and engage in conversation.

    Model X: Average Wh/mile Tracker

    I've got the OEM 22's on my 90D and my lifetime average is 354 Wh/mi. I'm currently just under 7,000 miles. I just recently did a 1500 mile road trip and averaged 330 Wh/mi. Range mode off and using A/C like I normally would (set to 75), 2 passengers plus me and some luggage. No feathering...

    Tesla and their free unlimited supercharging teases.

    I like the surge pricing idea but better yet..........just 10x the idle fees all the time. And on a contrary note, not sure how effective this will be. I am of the belief that there really are no idle fees, just empty threats. Has anyone ever actually been charged an idle fee?

    My first road trip (to San Diego Safari Park)

    The problem isn't keeping the left lane clear for passing.....it's too many people driving either too far above or too far below the posted speed limit.

    Loud clicking sound while braking- service center states its normal?

    This is definitely not normal. I have it on my X. Had to take it to a different service center as the first one kept telling me it was normal. The tech was able to easily reproduce the noise by driving forward then backwards repeatedly in a parking lot. It was pretty evident something was...
