    Recently improved streaming when choosing specific songs?

    Has anyone noticed recently that the built-in Streaming service has improved when trying to play a specific song? When we got our X in December 2016, I knew it was kind of hit or miss when requesting to play a specific song. For example, it might play that artist, but not the specific song...

    Lights stay on after exit and music keeps playing

    Just picked up our Model 3 today and we're having some odd issues. At first, the volume kept turning up on its own, as though the car thought left scroll wheel was being activated. This stopped after a while and hopefully will resolve itself. Next, on more than one occasion the lights stayed...

    EasyEntry No Longer Working on 2018.4.7

    Hello all. I have a Model S P85. Under a previous firmware update I had setup EasyEntry and it worked perfectly: when i put the car in park, EasyEntry was activated and when i got into the car and stepped on the brake, the previous driver profile was activated. Yesterday, the SC installed...

    Tying a Driver Profile to Phone/Card Key

    So, I was playing around with the Driver Profiles yesterday. First, I discovered the ability to enable the “Easy Entry” setting, which I’m trying. I’m not 100% sure i’ll Keep it, but its working fine so far. But, I also noticed something right below that checkbox, where it seemed to tie my...

    Model 3 Profile Settings not Saving

    My Model 3 seat profile settings are saved, but side mirrors, HVAC and seat heaters are not. My wife's mirror settings (and heat settings LOL) are wildly different than mine and I have to adjust them each time we switch drivers. Has anyone else experienced this? Is it part of the...

    Phone Key on Model S

    Would it technically be possible through a software standpoint of view to add the Model 3 phone key functionality? Just a random thought that came to mind.

    Does the internal ethernet connection allow access to the Internet?

    Can you access the Internet from the ethernet port? I've seen write ups about accessing the other internal devices via that port, but not whether or not the Internet is available from it?

    USB stick - issues

    Hi, any advice on what stick to use please? I have a really tiny stick made for Tesla but streams badly - music keeps breaking up. (That stick which cost a ruddy fortune is now lost somewhere on the floor!) Another generic stick has the same problems and a 64GB Sandisc is not even recognised! I...

    Problems with AAC files?

    I took my thumb drive from my Model S and put it into my Model 3 when I got it. I have mostly been listening to audio books since then, but yesterday I tried playing music from the thumb drive. The older MP3 files played fine (that's all I tried right after getting the 3), but tracks purchased...

    New Android app shows lots of battery info and actual capacity.

    "scan my tesla" is an android app, among lots of other useful stuff, it shows data about battery pack usable energy, actual capacity and a ton more information. That's just what people often ask here before buying a used one... (I am not, in any way involved in development of this app, and...

    App won't unlock doors....

    Just got back from 50K service and MCU replaced. Went out to garage without my key and tried to use the app to unlock. No go. Everything else works. Can honk horn, flash lights, vent/close pano roof, turn climate control on. But I can't unlock. The status shows that it's unlocked but touching...

    New firmware causes MCU to reboot frequently due to aftermarket audio?

    I installed firmware version 2018.4.1.ec044c8 last week and ever since, the MCU has been rebooting every 15 minutes. I got so annoyed with that problem that I ended up calling the service center over the weekend. I was told to ensure the energy saving was disabled and the other checkbox for...

    Tesla S 75D power adjustment *NEED HELP*

    Hi, i`ve got an Tesla S 75D 2017 modell and i was wondering how i can adjust and set the power to the back wheels. I`ve heard that you can adjust how much power the front and rear wheels have. I terms of horsepower or something i think. Is this a legit thing? Cant find it anywhere on the internet.

    ANY predictability on whether a new window will be on top or bottom?

    We got our S about 6 weeks ago and one thing that we still haven't figured out.... We keep our 17 inch screen split, usually with the map and the backup cam.. or maybe music.. whatever.. But when we want to change one of them to something else, it seems to be completely random on whether the...

    slacker next station with left steering wheel button instead of next song

    When using left steering wheel button it forwards to the next song on that station. My question is can you make it so that you can use the steering wheel to change it the next station (not next song)?

    How do clear "replace 12v battery" warning?

    For background, see this thread: Blackvue 750 causing 12V battery warning? Obviously, the easiest way would be to replace the 12v battery, but if you read the thread above you'll see why I'm skeptical that the 12v actually needs replacing. So I'd like to be able to experiment and see if...

    Electrical Plug on RV Mirror

    Would like to suggest Tesla consider placing a small 12VT 1AMP electrical plug on the backside of all Models RV Mirror. Almost everyone wants to add either a radar detector or Camera etc... would be nice not to have to take apart the mirror to access wiring.

    On-screen manual updates

    There have been numerous updates to the vehicle over the past few years. Does the on-screen manual get revised with each new feature? Is it possible to print the on-screen manual (via my home wi-fi)? Philip

    Problem with screen not showing backup camera image

    Model S 90D. Is there a simple fix, or is this a software update issue? Over the past month, I had my screen not show the backup camera view about three times when backing up. I drive the car almost daily, so the percentage of failures is very small. Just get a blank, grey screen. It works...

    LTE Connection Issues

    Going on the 2nd full day of no LTE connectivity. I did ~6 restarts between yesterday and today to no avail. Called it in last night and they were monitoring a software issue but also noted that they weren't receiving data logs from the vehicle. Anybody else have this issue/fixes?

    Audio/Bluetooth broken since last OTA update.

    Choosing a SpC in Nav Route

    I know this has been somewhat discussed before, but I couldn’t find anything specific to supercharger selection. I know waypoints are coming soon as well in the Nav system. When planning a Nav Route yesterday, there were 2 SpC within about 30 miles of each other I could stop at to charge at...

    Ice strikes again (door handles and frameless windows)

    I thought I had learned how to manage the Model S door handles in cold weather during the past two winters. But today I experienced a new wrinkle in this challenge. We had snow, then rain yesterday, followed by a freeze last night. I cleaned the snow off the car late in the afternoon, hoping...

    Driver vent direction not exactly working properly?

    Anyone else having this issue?

I don't remember having it before I dropped it off for a couple unrelated fixes a...

    2017.50.13 550ee35 "Supercharging Option Not Enabled"

    So, I installed 2017.50.13 550ee35 and don't see anything different. (Was the "screen cleaning mode" there before on the settings?) There were no release notes. When I returned to my car (which was plugged it), I saw an interesting message: "Unable to Charge. Supercharging Option Not...

    Reliability?

    I am new to the Tesla world but not new to cars and have owned pretty much everything from old muscle cars to newer imports. I'm starting to think a Model S P85 is my next car but the more I read on the forums the more I'm thinking maybe not. Everyone who owns a Tesla I've talked to loves them...

    2017.50.13.550ee35 build, what's new?

    My Model 3 received this build while at the service center overnight, since I don't have the car have no way of telling what's in it. Does anyone have an idea?

    Smartphone Dashboard?

    I just realized this... As a Model S owner, I’ve found that the Tesla app is extremely precise and updates in almost real-time (within half a second from what I remember). It shows the current speed of your car as well as other information. This could be used to turn your smartphone into a...

    Auto rain sensing wipers do not start when it rains

    Once I manually start the wiper, then when put in AUTO they only wipe as needed, but they never turn on themselves the first time, even though they are in auto. Am i doing something wrong?

    IPhone “key” not reliable

    Hopefully Tesla will abandon this experiment and get key fobs for us. The “credit card” is fine for a backup but not nearly as useful or user friendly as a fob. Nice try and maybe someday Bluetooth — or whatever comes next — will be more reliable.

    Problems communicating with new Model 3 via iPhone

    The Tesla app on my iPhone 7 normally quickly connects and updates to current time for my S, but the connection to my new 3 is spotty at best. Right now the car is in the garage and the app won’t update. Last update was 28 minutes ago. This happened several times yesterday too. Any ideas?

    Model 3: First 100 Miles Impressions from a P85D Owner

    I took delivery of my 3 on Monday. It’s apparently the 10th black Model 3 in New Jersey. I’ve been driving a Model S P85D for almost 3 years, so I thought I’d share initial thoughts from that perspective... and probably put together a video comparison. (I’ve also driven a recent P100D, so when I...
