    Rear Grinding Noise On Hard Acceleration

    I tried a handful of times to make an appointment at my local SC but they were unable to provide me with a loaner. I own multiple businesses and need a daily driver. I've put it off for the time being. The noise is still there to this day but happy to report, it hasn't gotten louder, worse or...

    Rear Grinding Noise On Hard Acceleration

    Car is stock. I do not notice it under normal acceleration or lower speeds. Only really notice it under heavy acceleration, taking off fast from a signal light, trying to pass fast on the highway, etc. I can try recording the sound, may not come out too clear. It is definitely coming from the...

    Rear Grinding Noise On Hard Acceleration

    2021 Model S (Nov 2020 build) with 21in tires. I've been experiencing a grinding noise from the rear everytime I accelerate hard to semi-hard. It almost sounds like gears grinding against each other. Anyone experience something similar and is this a reason to schedule a SC appointment?

    Pre-refresh S / X now officially known as “Legacy” in terms of software

    Wait, seriously?? I was excited my S was gonna get these features as mine is stated to be a 2021. Nov 2020 build and I took delivery in Jan 2021. Are you sure this falls under the legacy column??

    Missed the Order Cutoff

    There are at least 50 P100Ds for the taking right now. Some with little or no miles. Check out ev-cpo. Depending on where you are located, you could have your car in your driveway in under 2 weeks.

    Cancel LR MS+ Order & Wait for Refresh?

    I am taking delivery of a 2021 MS this Sunday. There was a part of me telling me to wait but I have a gut feeling that if they ever do a refresh, they will change the MS to a more simplistic interior with just 1 screen. I rather have the current setup for sure.

    Why Does The Delivery Process Suck So Much?

    Thanks for this! Picking up my MS this Sunday at Plano. Glad I know what to expect now. Do keep in mind, this new contactless delivery process is surely due to COVID. Once this blows over, the process should go back to normal showroom deliveries.

    Rear Window Tint

    I'm glad I asked this question. I had not taken visibility into consideration. I will go with the 15%. I have a white MS coming. I am trying to go with the look of one flowing glass from top all the way to bottom. I love how this looks with the contrasting white body.

    Rear Window Tint

    Another tint Q so I apologize in advanced. Tried to search but didn't find the answer I was looking for. On a MS with a lighter interior, go with 5% or 15% on the rear window to match the roof perfectly? Bonus points if you can provide pictures.

    Am I the Only One Losing Patience?!

    Does sound fun for sure! Unfortunately work restraints will prevent me from taking that kinda time off. I'm hoping it arrives sooner than the current delivery date of 12/20!

    Am I the Only One Losing Patience?!

    Got my delivery date for 12/20! Car will be shipping from Salt Lake City to Dallas. Thank heavens for sites like ev-cpo!

    Am I the Only One Losing Patience?!

    So I finally came to the end of the road with my patience. I have cancelled my original order placed on 10/14 and put a deposit on a 2021 MS LR+ with 6 miles on the ODO. Its currently sitting in Salt Lake City so should cost me an extra $1,000 to transport to Dallas but at least I can now see a...

    Am I the Only One Losing Patience?!

    I was told by my advisor that if there is less than a 1,000 mile difference from the original quote than the price wouldn't change. I do not believe this to be true however. I have read on these forums of trade price reduction at time of delivery with less than a 500 mile difference. Once again...

    Is your configuration similar as mine?

    Am I the Only One Losing Patience?!

    Lets hope so! At this rate, I'll probably get a plaid version before this one.

    Am I the Only One Losing Patience?!

    According to my advisor, my portal has been complete since 10/15. I even have all my loan paperwork complete as of that date. Just waiting on that darn VIN!

    Am I the Only One Losing Patience?!

    Oh, yes! This is my second rodeo. Trading in the black MS75 in my pic for this one. The Dallas and/or Plano SC is hit or miss dependent on how backed up they are. Mobile service has been a blessing. Its just a riot how people like me will wait this long and pay this much for a car knowing the...

    Am I the Only One Losing Patience?!

    Ordered October 14th MS LR+ White Ext, Black Int, 21in Wheels, Autopilot. Dallas, TX. No VIN yet and its now 12/7. I see people on here that have placed their orders after me and have taken delivery already. I know its the end of the year push and more than likely, I will get the car before...

    After too long on the sidelines, I’m about to become an owner

    Looks like we are both in the same boat! Placed order on the 14th and I received the same estimated delivery timeline. This will be my 2nd MS but just as excited as I was the first go around!

    Debating new Model S LR+

    Thanks for the reply. I was wondering if the other cars still show up like shown in this picture. The car I have right now does a pretty good job depicting cars, pickups, trucks and even motorcycles.

    Debating new Model S LR+

    I also have a 2017 MS75 with EAP and uncorked. I'm on the fence to get the new LR+ as well. The 0.5 sec better 0 to 60 probably won't make much of a difference but I am very intrigued with the new drivetrain and Raven adaptive suspension. My current EAP has summon, auto lane change, navigate...

    Got new software 2020.12.5 now I have issues !!

    I got the same exact problem except this was after installation of 2020.8.2. Mobile service came out last Wednesday and claimed the cameras are indeed need of calibration and can only be done at the SC. Got an appointment next Wednesday at the SC for calibration. Timing is weird due to the car...

    What are you using your cyber truck for?

    Honestly not really sure why I put down a deposit. Have never owned or even driven a pickup before. What I do know is that maybe 1-2 times a year I buy or move something very large and/or heavy and I tell myself I wish I had a pickup to get the job done. This deposit was simply an impulse buy to...

    Sentry Mode on AP2 - Can I get my footage?

    So this happened today at my parking lot at work. Of course no one left a note. Sentry mode was running but I am on AP2.0 so don't have the ability of recording via USB. Is it still possible to call Tesla and get the footage?

    Model Y cargo capacity

    Thanks for the comparison. I do not believe any of those vehicles come with an optional 3rd row. Cargo space aside, the question remains if the Y's 3rd row is actually usable or just their for decoration.

    Loss of LTE connectivity

    I'm in Dallas and several of us are experiencing the same issue. Maybe a national thing on Tesla's side.

    Software Update 2018.14

    I'm confused... I was under the impression 2018.12 gave you the ability to side load the new maps. Now I am hearing we have to wait for 2018.14 for the new maps?

    New Navigation Coming This Weekend! (circa March 31, 2018)

    Got 2018.12 a week ago today and still no new maps. Car has been consistently connected to WiFi on a 1 gigabit down fiber network from AT&T. I've given up on the maps. There is no rhyme or reason for this "massive" download. It will happen when it happens.

    Where are all the inventory Model X's?

    All of these inventory MX 75D, even the ones that state model year 2018, have 0 to 60 times listed as 6 seconds. A new configured order gives you a MX 75D with a 0 to 60 of 4.9 seconds. What gives?

    Another WiFi Bad Actor - SOLVED - Wink Home Control

    That's weird I have never had this issue with my MS. I've had Wink 2 at my home forever now. If it's a network traffic issue, I would think I would be impacted as my entire home is automated. At any given time, I have 10-12 devices connected to my primary network.

    Model S Photo Gallery

    HaHa! Thanks, I think. Jacked up crossover look wasn't what I was exactly going for. They are the stock 19 inch slipstreams on coils. Can't do much about the wheel gap unfortunately.

    Model S Photo Gallery

    Some small minor exterior mods. Plasti dip the slipstreams, wheel cap and door handle overlays from RPM Tesla and aftermarket stock spoiler.

    Tesla Inventory now showing almost 30 Model S available. All are 100D batteries. All are >$100k. There is also 1 Model X P100D for $144k. Wonder what the reasoning is behind pushing the 100Ds all of a sudden...

    Slipstreams to Arachnids

    Absolutely beautiful! Are you running air or coils? I love how the 21s close the fender gap compared to the 19s .

    Wheel Spacers with 19" Stock Slipstreams

    I appreciate the advice! I will have to look into this. Would a spacer without studs pressed into them be an option then? See picture below. Are Tesla's studs long enough to hold the spacer and the wheel? Thanks a lot for the trick! I will definitely try this.

    How long to calibrate for cruise control?

    Picked up my MS75 in December. My cruise and autopilot was calibrated by the time I reached home from the service center. The trip was a total of 28 miles. Not sure if I am an outlier here but that is the only example I can give you.

    Wheel Spacers with 19" Stock Slipstreams

    I agree, this statement is not true. Spacers can be installed on pretty much any wheel and tire combination. Just need to choose the right size and type of spacer. I have the type, now I need some recommendations on size...

    Wheel Spacers with 19" Stock Slipstreams

    I have been searching the forums for a good hour now and have found a ton of information about wheel spacers with square set 21 inch turbines, staggered 21 inch turbines and even 21 inch arachnids but nothing on the stock 19 inch slipstreams. The common recommendation on the forums is to go...

    Official type c installation

    Great video! Did not know it was that easy to swap the cords out. I just got a Galaxy S8 so would be interested in doing the same. Does this give you the ability for rapid charging? If not, how fast are you seeing your phone charge?
