Model S 2017 manual frunk cable issue

Hey - Tesla got back home on low battery, left it charge but was still on schedule mode. Got up thos am to find it flat, tried to get in with key, wouldn't open... Then looked up how to get in manually. On pulling the cables in the correct order both have loads of slack, but now some buggered.

Does anyone know what the next step is from here? Any other ways of getting in do injust write her off 😂

Noise while driving on the freeway, 65-80 mph? Please respond.



Hello, I have a 2022 M3 LR AWD. I have noticed that when I get up to speeds past 60 mph, I hear something flapping around. It feels almost like a skid plate on the bottom of the car is catching air or something. This only happens while I am on the freeway; when driving under 60 mph, there are no issues.
Could anyone shed some light on this? I've watched the online video explaining the odd pops and sounds you may hear from your Tesla, but this doesn't seem to match any of those. I'm eager to learn from your experiences and insights.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Coffee Spill and the Center Console

Hello

This morning, my coffee took a tumble in the center cup holders and overflowed into the center console, right over the usb-c ports.

I'm an overthinker so I thought it'd be better just to ask -

  • Do you guys think it'd cause any damage to the vehicle, or are there safeguards wherein damage to a port won't affect the entire vehicle?
  • I have an appointment when mobile service next week. Is it likely they'd replace the usb-c ports? If so, has anyone ever seen the charge for that type of service?
  • Lastly, I didn't see it get under the seats. But would the mechanism that allows the seats to move forward and backward be protected from liquid damage?
Thanks for your time

ApplePay disappeared from supercharging wallet?

I have been paying for supercharging using ApplePay since I got the car (Tesla Model 3) in 2019. It last successfully charged the card about three weeks ago. Today, I was told that supercharging was disabled because I had an uppaid charge. I found that ApplePay had disappeared from the supercharging wallet, and, for some reason, it didn't automatically charge my backup card. No reason ApplePay wouldn't have paid, so I went to add it back in and it doesn't seem to be an available method of payment in the App. It IS my default payment method for the Tesla Account (and they had NO trouble charging repairs to it!)

Anyone else have the same experience? Is ApplePay disappearing? Will this happen next time they go to renew my internet services?

Dripping/leaking behind rear wheel

I just discovered some dripping/leaking coming from behind the right rear wheel. There’s no color, no smell to it. Feels like water when I touch it and rub it into my hand and dries out, so it seems like condensation but from way back there? Anyone have any idea what it may be?

Collision damage M3

Sooo… this happened today. Other driver at fault. Their insurance (state farm) accepted 100% liability. Why does it feel like I got kicked in the face when I open up the claim (mind you this all took place in the same day the accident occurred) to find that this is the amount they are sending me… $5300!!!

Surely the repairs on this are going to cost A LOT MORE. What should I do in this case?
Can I negotiate ? should I have Tesla collision body shop look at it and then they can deal with the insurance for getting the $$$ for the actual repair costs?
Ugh this is so frustrating! Does anyone have some experience or advice here. TIA.

Wheel and Tire package questions

I put winter tires on the wheels that came with my car, so now I want to buy a wheel and tire package for All Seasons to be able to swap on my own as needed, but it looks like the Tesla Shop still only has the Winter tire package available. Two questions:
  1. Does anyone know when the All Season tire package should show up to order in the shop again? I assume they do Winter during the Winter and All Seasons during the Summer, but it's already May.
  2. The description for the package says it includes shipping to your Service Center and installation, but has anyone bought these and confirmed you get to take your old set of wheels and tires home with you? I put Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5s on just this Jan and want to keep them for next winter.

2017 Tesla Model X P90D - What are your experiences? (Advice on purchasing used Model X)

Hi everyone,

I'm contemplating purchasing a 2017 Model X P90D that has logged around 80,000 km. I would appreciate hearing about your experiences with this specific model, especially from those who have dealt with high mileage.

The warranty is nearing its end, and I am concerned about potential hidden costs. Are there common issues I should be aware of? Also, since I’m buying it from the original owner, are there particular questions I should ask or specific things to check before finalizing the purchase?

Thanks in advance for your insights!

2024 M3 no stalks. How initiate TACC?

Owned M3 5 days. My attempts to get the TACC to work have failed. The tesla website only describes earlier M3 (with stalks).

Nothing I can find in the car data describes all the features of the steering wheel buttons etc (except turn signals and
speaker volume). The stuff by right hand hardly mentioned at all.

So ... How to get TACC to work? Is it buried somewhere in the car information or ?
TIA for any help.

App control when car at garage

Hi everyone,

My car is in the garage behaving some work done.

At night they leave it outside and unlocked…..I use the app to lock it.

Just now, the app showed a picture of the car moving and it freaked me out somewhat.
It went up to 46mph.
Then stopped….. I put the sentry on as it was parked and it is at the garage!
What do you make of that.?
Explain please.

Payment not complete!?

I just picked up my new MYLR Saturday. I wanted to pay in full at pickup. I did not have enough money in one account to do so and wanted to pay from two bank accounts. By the time I was picking up my car there was not enough time to transfer the funds and have them available. An associate at Tesla instructed me through the process of wiring from two accounts… this did not work and they ended up charging the full amount to one account which I knew did not have enough for the full transaction, essentially overdrafting my account by almost $10,000. I then immediately transferred the rest of the money into that account and prayed, knowing the funds wouldn’t be available before Tesla tried to pull it but, again, praying anyway.

Today I received this email from my bank (Sofi):

“TESLA MOTORS TESLA MOTO attempted to charge $10,000 to your SoFi checking account. We are unable to process this transaction and it has been returned due to R09 - Uncollected Funds.”

My understanding now is that I have a balance of $10k left on the car through Tesla. How can I pay this?? I have searched the app and customer service high and low. Im not seeing a balance anywhere. Thanks again!! Been on hold with costumer service phone line trying to talk to somebody for 45 min now….
