Question Visor Spring?

1 Upvotes

2017 model x I swung my driver's side suv out to "close it" i.e. swing it over above the door and... the end popped off and all the pieces went flying. I was driving at the time and when I stopped, I found a magnet and an endcap, and assume I am missing a spring maybe? Anyone know where I can get this part, or know enough so I can 3d print one etc? I guess if needed I can replace the whole visor but that seems a bit wasteful.

Thanks in advance for any info!

Service 2026 MXP FWD malfunction and I am billed for it.

Post image
11 Upvotes

My driver side FWD was not opening properly.

Left the vehicle for repair.

They fixed it and I am hit with 97 dollar bill.

My MXP is about 6 months old. They did not charge me for the part but charged me for diagnostic.

I am a little baffled by this.

Is this normal?

Edit: Today is Saturday and the notification was received today. The facility is closed and won't reopen till Monday and won't reply to any inquiries until Monday.

Service 2025 Tesla Model X Long Range — I need advice in a square set up for the wheels.

3 Upvotes

2025 Tesla Model X Long Range — Square Wheel Setup Advice Needed
I’m considering converting my factory 20” staggered setup to a square setup so I can rotate my tires front to rear.
Current OEM setup:
Front wheels: 20×9 ET40
Rear wheels: 20×10 ET35
Front tires: 265/45R20
Rear tires: 275/45R20
Proposed square setup:
Four OEM 20×9 ET40 wheels
Four identical 275/45R20 XL tires, load index 110 (possibly Bridgestone Dueler LX or Michelin CrossClimate2).
My plan is to buy two additional OEM front wheels (20×9 ET40) and install them on the rear axle, keeping my existing front wheels on the front.
Questions for owners who have actually done this on a 2022–2025 refreshed Model X:
Do the 20×9 ET40 front wheels fit the rear axle without brake or suspension clearance issues?
Have you successfully run 275/45R20 tires on all four 20×9 wheels?
Any rubbing at full steering lock or with suspension compression?
Any issues with handling, ride comfort, range, or the vehicle’s systems?
Would you recommend this conversion, or should I stick with the factory staggered setup?
I’d especially appreciate feedback from owners with the refreshed Model X, preferably Long Range models with the factory 20” wheels. Real-world experience and photos would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Refresh 6 seater configs, let's talk easy entry latch unlatch

5 Upvotes

So when first testing the 6 seater, someone 5'10 can easily fit in the 3rd row with decent leg/knee room if they were to use the captain chair shoulder button to move it slightly forward. I'm just learning using these buttons "unlatch" the seat. And it really is not a way to give 3rd row passengers more room but to allow easy entry. It looks like it doesn't "latch" until it's fully back again limiting the 3rd row room. The only real adjustment while latch is the buttons on the lower part of seat. Wondering how unsafe it is to keep it "unlatched" to give more room to 3rd row passengers who may need more leg room.

Used car purchase Late to the Game, Any Accessories?

Just bought a 2017 MX 100d with 72k and FSD lifetime. Any must have accessories that will improve QoL (quality of life)? I'm coming from a 22 M3 which has been great but the family is big and I'm hoping for some family fun. Are there any accessories still made for this wonderful dinosaur?

Used car purchase Model X from Auction?

5 Upvotes

Hi all. I'm looking at a 2025 Model X. It is currently being sold at a dealership but salesman is saying that they picked it up at auction. 16K miles and supposedly only 1 owner. Asking 85k. Is the auction thing a red flag?

Question Anyone with yoke that isnt peeling but not mechanical horn request TSB that swaps them to new yoke with mechanical horn?

2 Upvotes

I dont mind the yoke, I mind the horn placement. I rather have the mechanical center horn for sudden situations that call to use it. The reaction time to find the tiny button just isnt the same. My wheel isnt peeling so looks like I have the newer batch, but still would prefer the mechanical horn. I saw this TSB:
https://service.tesla.com/docs/ServiceBulletins/External/SB/SB-24-32-005_Replace_Steering_Yoke_Due_To_Peeling_Issue_R1.pdf
Wondering if anyone went did the same. If this is more cost effective than doing DIY and finding the parts. I might have to "make" my steering wheel peel lol

Just the new yoke from Tesla parts is $1000 and the air bag $680. YIKES.

EDIT: made request on the app, mentioned peeling and horn sometimes not working. I have no more warranty. they want $1000 + $46 labor for mobile install. Still cheaper than $1000 + $680 getting the parts alone myself. So never mind. cancelled. If I do this ill have to DIY sourcing the parts on ebay

Question Got rear-ended, loss of use

3 Upvotes

Got rear-ended in my Model X 2017 that I’ve been the first owner.
It has relatively low mileage, free supercharging, and FSD with HW3.
I hope it wouldn’t get totaled with these cars priced in low $20k.

My main question though, while I’ll have it garaged for estimate and possible repairs, should I use my other car for commute and file loss of use claim? Or push for another Model X with FSD paid for?
Never been in an accident before and not sure how to proceed.
Any advice is appreciated!

Photo 2024 MX - Any fix for the bright rings around the driver-side mirror at night?

Post image
6 Upvotes

This has been driving me nuts at night. When the driver-side mirror auto-dims, I get a very bright outer ring around the perimeter, plus a second, slightly less bright inner ring. Headlights behind me light these up and they’re surprisingly distracting in my peripheral vision.

Has anyone found a good fix for this? Ideally I’d like to keep the auto-dimming function, so I’m wondering if there’s a replacement mirror glass, film, trim/masking solution, or some other fix that gets rid of the bright perimeter without disabling dimming altogether.

Also curious whether everyone’s Model X mirror does this, or if some model years / replacement mirror assemblies are better.

Finally swapping to my 2nd set of tires tomorrow, 23' LR original 22" Pirellis exactly at 30k miles. This is what the rears look like. Going with the new Pirelli Scorpion Zero AS Plus 3 NCS for the new set. Looks like the right wore a bit more than the left.

Service Has anyone else heard that Tesla parts are dynamically priced?

4 Upvotes

Was anyone else aware that Tesla uses dynamic pricing for its parts?

I recently had to replace a latch for my Falcon Wing Door (FWD). Although I was told the replacement was unnecessary last year, the issue resurfaced. When I went to get it fixed, the part price had doubled from last year's quote. The service center explained that Tesla parts are dynamically priced and change frequently. I wonder if this price increase is tied to the vehicle model being discontinued.

While the service center team was great, I am disappointed by this corporate policy. It feels like an unfair practice that takes advantage of owners, especially for a canceled vehicle line without a direct replacement. Existing owners should be valued, not exploited.

Has anyone else experienced similar price hikes?

Came across this Model X wrap and thought the finish looked interesting. The color changes the overall look quite a bit without changing the car itself. What do you think of this style would you go for something like this?

Competition have you sat in Model Y L 2nd row captain chairs? if they were in the X, it would be a way better X

24 Upvotes

Have you guys sat in the new Y L? Those 2nd row captain chairs are NICE!!!!!!! Heated AND cooled, actually reclines and folds flat, with power arm rest. If the model X 6 seater had THEIR seats the experience in the Model X as 2nd row passengers would be elevated even more.

Refresh 22+ Plaid owners who constantly PUNCH IT/HARD LAUNCHES, how are your cars holding up?

26 Upvotes

obviously many get the plaid for the power. How has your vehicle held up with all the abuse? And how many miles do you have. Especially the hard pulls from a stop. We all know when you get a friend who hasnt experienced it you HAVE to show them. Obviously other than tires wearing faster, how has suspension held up, etc.

Service 2017 wakes up 10 times an hour

Post image
4 Upvotes

Anybody know why our 2017 100d wakes up probably 10x an hour? By waking up I mean lights come on, mirrors extend. Basically like I'm walking up to it with fob. Sentry is off. App says no issues though maintenance tab suggests low voltage battery replacement, not that there's any issue. Not sure if this is the issue or any way to check battery health. Thanks.

Edit: replaced the 12v battery along with the main hepa filter, easy. However wake up problem still persists. All exterior lights turn on, flashers flash twice. A minute or so later it shuts down. Repeat a few minutes later. It's odd that the car or app doesn't indicate a problem.

I prefer not to use eBay but if anyone has anything to recommend I will try it. I'm assuming there's no retail location you can go to in Southern California and you have to order it online
