Tesla Model S

Finding that when a touch a "button" on the main screen that i am getting a pixelated square 7cm x 5cm ish for about 1 second and then it disappears - any thoughts?

i have had to reboot (soft and full) the car three times in the last 24hrs for another problem relating to energy/usage info. car was built November 2016 so has the original MCU 1

unkel

Could be nothing, could be an early sign of MCU1 failure. Is your car still under warranty? Tesla service told me that when something like that happens again, make a note of the date and time it happened (as precisely as you can) - they can then read the logs and get more info on what it was that happened

Probably just a software bug. I've seen stuff like that the odd time. A reboot should clear it.

Out and about for a few days and really loving sharing Google Maps trips with the Tesla, a doddle and works seamlessly

thanks for the advice, cars already booked into sc wait to see what they say

thats fantastic

would love that on the e-tron

I think I'll go for it but not until my warranty expires, if anything goes wrong with 12v battery/frunk area etc then Tesla would (fairly) walk

unkel

I wouldn't worry about the warranty. I have my frunk modified so I now have 240V AC power in there. The service department didn't mind at all.

Saw the auto frunk kit, a lot of money. Now if it was the trunk that I use a lot more often and it didn't have auto power / auto close (like Tesla Model 3), then I would consider it. Cool project anyway.

Linky?

unkel

To the modification? I just hooked up 110A automotive leads to the jump poles behind the nose cone, routed them into the frunk and hooked up an inverter.

Not long after we had a fairly bad power cut in Lucan (we don't even have one like that every other year normally), I connected a 25m extension cord from the car into my attic and I could still work away from home on my PC

Not that I needed the car for that. I also have an 18kWh power wall with an emergency socket that can provide 3kW of power. And I have several ebike batteries (52V nominal) and a 48V inverter that would be more than able to run my PC for several hours.

Would love to as i hate the idea of constantly closing by pressing on the corners, even if Tesla say that's how it should be done!

Pricey for my liking but if i bought new id have it done straight away.
I'm nearly at the stage now where i keep my "go to" stuff (Site gear, boots etc) in the boot and keep the frunk for occasional use.

Thats it. Low level plastic containers lined with plastic bags.
Boots fit in one. Jacket fit in another with my hardhat, googles and nerd clip board

As long as you don't try to hide a Rex in there.

I actually have a few of those. Never brought them with me though but they would give me a few km range

Has anyone bought a cubby drawer for under the Centre screen?
Looking at a few online but they state LHD only.

unkel

Ordered one nearly 5 months ago from China but it never arrived and I got a refund

Your one in Norway does hand made ones and she makes them specifically for RHD too. Google her. Easy to find.

I was going to get one from China but all LHD, they’d fit but would be protruding out, I use the shelf for our sunglasses and whatever the cases are made from, they never budge so not going to get one now

That's because you don't have a performance

Whenever I plant my foot, whatever is in that cubby ends up somewhere in the back of the car. Coins, phones, sunglasses. I stopped putting anything in there after a few days...

slave1

Then why ruin that joy with a “stopper”

If I put my foot down, sun glasses and face mask end up in the back seat. If I’m unlucky enough to have left my phone on the center console, god knows where that ends up!

Passengers, they are another story

I got reg plate LED’s delivered today. Bought them from abstract ocean in the USA based on their review, and fitting. Technically any 36mm should fit but I didn’t want to gamble with eBay bulbs.

Ordered on 27th July, arrived and fitted today.

€29.54 shipped from here. I’ll ask them if RHD before ordering.

All,

Full set of WeatherTech floor mats for sale, front, rear, frunk and boot liner. Cost €470 or so will sell for €250.

As new & less than a year old.

Thanks....

unkel

If you can do €200 I'll take them. Can most likely collect from you. Sorry but I am a cheapskate

Presuming your car is pre-facelift and RWD only. The mats are different for other configs.

The reply

Hi,
​
​Normally, it's compatible with LHD and RHD. if you have a problem with the product, we send you a return label

Have a nice day,

Bien cordialement / Best regards,

unkel

I'll wait until you get it Gumbo

LHD one doesn't fit well from a bit of research I did and the cheap Chinese ones shouldn't be much more than about €12 including shipping. The one in your link is probably exactly the same product but with a large mark up and hefty shipping charges.

I bought them for an 18 75d so I presume that rules you out Unkel.
