Car is back. There is a new service bulletin for the issue. They needed to retrofit HCU Wake-up wire.

I had the same issues with my 3 month old LR yesterday after last software update and they DIDN'T CLEAR. It is in the service center. Still waiting to see what happened.

Of course in New Jersey, it is illegal to sell cars on Sunday so I won't be getting mine until at least Monday now. This is almost as bad as the when I got my original S85. It was made on December 31 and showed up at my house three weeks later on a carrier with a whole bunch of different brand...

I am scheduled to take delivery on my car tomorrow and they aren't sure of if the software will be ready. It was supposed to be done one Thursday. They said my car had all of its parts but is on software hold.

I think the "Metallic" addition is the highlight of this new color. I think they are trying to make the color pop more. I would have chosen the metallic gray if available when I ordered my car two years ago...Guess I might have to sell mine.

I have the HPWC with the 80 amp service. I don't regret it at all...if you can afford, do it. The one day you will want that fast charge at home and you didn't do it, you will be kicking yourself.

I was just about to post about the QR being the easy indicator. The OP has SN 2310 yet Vger has 1945. Talk about luck of the draw.

In the video, towards the end, you can see they are Nokian Studded tires.

Looks like the raised up part might be designed to occupy the small space in the rear of the frunk.

Please add me.....are you going to make a Jersey run again and install them?

It is great news that it cleared the technical review and would be ready for committee vote. Depending on the municipality, Tesla might be allowed to start digging once it is approved and could be finished pretty quickly and operational depending on permit issuance and inspection.

I am 3146 and mine was replaced when I had it in for service last month also.

Yes and I still cant wait to configure our Model X!

With all the comments, time to add my two cents. I thought that it is interesting to note that the Model S that was involved in the 101 tractor trailer situation last week, DID NOT catch fire. The underbody had to experience serious damage crashing down onto the concrete barrier that wound up...

Group share wouldn't work since the $1000 includes some activation required from Tesla.

The do not use sticker was on my car when delivered from the factory...I was one of the last 2012s. It looks like the car might have been sitting around some where and is tot

Put a small flat blade screw driver in the opening at the top of your picture and push the battery towards the little metal springs at the bottom of your photo. The battery will then pop up and out. To replace the battery, slide the battery against the metal clip and push down while pivoting back

Although I am not a resident of California, review of the CA vehcle code would permit the mounting of the license plate to the inside of the front window with the use of suction cups. This would satisfy all of the requirments and you could stow when not in use.

I heard from a source unrelated to TESLA that the NJ SC is currently under construction near PRINCETON. I tried getting more specific info but he wouldn't give any more details except that it was fairly far along. I wish I lived closer to try and scout myself.

Sorry, since the quality is so much better if I turn the volume above 7 it is almost TOO loud! But there is no distortion and my wife who has been around music all her life said "wow, did you change the speakers, the sound sounds so clear"

After the last software update last week, the sound studio system sounds much better. There is also an option which I might have not noticed previously for less compressed Slacker in high signal area. I can't turn the system above 7 now.

Here is my car with staggered 20's that I purchased from Elie at A&E. I will try and post better pictures later.

This is mine with new 20s in staggered fitament.

Atleast you are okay...I would get the 85 and don't look back...sometimes things happen for a reason. The sooner you get the new one, the sooner the love affair will start over again.

Tesla and Elon never said that required service was NOT required...they said it is not required to be performed by Tesla. Recommended service needs to be performed and documented to ensure the original warranty and extended service agreement. I think this is totally reasonable. I purchased...

I have a non-perf and my thought was to put staggered 20's on my car to prevent slip during the launch phase from a red light. I live in NJ and I was concerned about going to large on the rims to avoid the pothole damage but large enough to get an aggressive wheel/tire combo. They are being...

Thanks for the pictures...definitely the new and improved unit. Even the head is connected differently which should eliminate some problems there too,

I think Tesla might make it part of the next software update to AUTOMATICALLY put the car in tow mode (raise the suspension and lock the air suspension if the car is so equipped) if a crash is detected or airbags deploy. I can't see any negative to such a safety feature because if the car is...

There are some chargers located in the public garage at the foot of AC Expressway by the outlets. I have driven my MS to Harrahs and Borgata and they were willing to accomodate me overnight with a charge. I think Harrahs has a golf cart outlet in their garage (no idea of the volts/amps) I...

I used Glare and love it!

I saw amazon had some led bulbs that might work at 11.99 a pair, might be worth trying to get the look

Tesla is already doing this.....when they brought my car home, the tech that delivered it was also the mechanic and went over everything he did to my car. I also had a similar experience when a Ranger came to my house to replace a failed door handle.

I live about 50 miles away and did not receive the invite....guess since I am live in NJ I am not welcome in PA.

Weird AL has his Model S at home....https://twitter.com/alyankovic/status/324586997740093440

Here is the full article from the LA Times...http://articles.latimes.com/2013/may/05/business/la-fi-electric-cars-20130506

The Glare actually shined the Factory installed PPF and made it blend better into the paint.

If anyone wants to purchase Glare directly from the factory, they are offering members of the forum a 10 discount by entering code Pstevens07 at Glare.com. I used it on my Model S and I am very happy with the outcome and the support they gave me in prepping and applying the system.

I'm in

I think they should just market the petro-leather as 100%Genuine Imitation Leather....sounds like leather so it must be leather.

NJ is the same and the lienholder's name will appear in the lower right hand corner of the title. When the lien is placed on the title, Motor Vehicles DOES NOT give the title to Tesla or the owner of the vehicle. It is mailed directly to the lienholder when there is a lien. I financed...

I think the reason for the Microfinish is to remove any wax or polish applied at the factory prior to shipping.

@Treker56--Glare Professional is a paint sealant that you use as a polish and wax. I just finished applying it to my three month old Model S. Glare recommends you use their Ultra Wash as the first step. The second step is determined by the quality of your current finish. If there aren't...

I would love to get a spoiler too...PM me

@UMD86 Here is the original thread... Coated windshield impacting door openers and EZpass - Page 21

Looks like washer fluid to me.

I called them first but then went to your second choice, I had Imagine Audio do it.

I never had tinted windows before my Model S. I am starting to really love the 3M Crystalline 40.

@youlikeadajuice...Call ownership experience and they will overnight you a new plate with the same number and a new expiration date. They can also email a PDF copy so atleast you are legal if pulled over. @yobigd20...I called Parsons when I received my car in January and they said the car is...

Mounting the new smaller EzPass to the black plastic mount above the rear view mirror worked for me on the Nj Turnpike all four times I tried it and the Commodore Barry Bridge as well.

I have actually raised the seat up a little. It has made the ride very comfortable and I have excellent visibility out the rear window. I am loving my MS more and more every day.
