  1. Headlight Replacement (now that I finally got it) DIY Install Process After Hitting Deer

    Forgive me if somebody already asked ... but ... I am curious why you would tackle such an expensive repair yourself? Why not just file an insurance claim for the collision with a deer?
  2. Cleaning Front Winshield Residue?

    This is one that we all are going to have a bunch of answers for. In the early months of ownership, our CTs are especially vulnerable to normal new car gassing of new interior plastics in the hot sun....and that vapor becomes a hard to remove film on the interior of our windows. Given a wrong...
  3. Bird Poop Stain!

    I am glad that bird poop etching is not a problem for you. In my coastal area ... occasional very large and very liquid white seagull poop splat dollar-bill sized areas that quickly micro-etched my frunk. Even by the coast ... this direct hit is rare, but when it does happen ... the etching...
  4. Another out of spec detailing video: heavy stain removal from stainless steel

    I accidentally bought the "plus" with that extra ingredient and used it on the top of my frunk on a massive micro etching from seagull poop. Applied a very thin layer across entire top and let set for 3 minutes. Worked like a miracle ! For unknown reasons ... only the regular Citrisurf 77...
  5. Another out of spec detailing video: heavy stain removal from stainless steel

    In the Cybertruck Service Manual, we can find a recommendation by Tesla for a product called Citrisurf 77 for removing stains. I bought some and it works...and leaves no micro scratches. The only caveat ... just like BKF ... Citrisurf does remove the petina as well as the stain .... so some...
  6. Bird Poop Stain!

    Problem is ... once the bird shit sits awhile ... it does a micro etching on the SS of the CT. That micro etching can only be removed via an abrasive process like Bar Keepers Friend ... or the Tesla approved chemical called Citrisurf 77. Like Bar Keeper's Friend, Citrisurf also removes the age...
  7. Bird Poop Stain!

    In the Cybertruck manual, a product avail via Amazon called CITISURF 77 is recommended for removing stains from our CTs. It works via mild chemical reaction rather than with abrasives. I used it on my frunk top on seagull $hit stains ... and it works easily and quickly. Only downside ... you...
  8. TONNEAU COVER STUCK AT 5 INCHES OPEN ... on long roadtrip ... any known fixes?

    Thanks so much for your tip. I did not see it before taking it into service ... they had to "install" the spare tire I ordered. The tech advised all he had to do was "recalibrate" as you mentioned. I will be sure to try your above procedure should it ever happen again..

  10. Sadly the FUD is winning.

    Our Cybertrucks are the man bites dog story of the day. If the ALLEGED current 1000 CTs per week being made in Austin is true ... in 18 months Cybertrucks will be as common as fleas ... and the less than newsworthy notariety will, like all things, pass.
  11. Sadly the FUD is winning.

    LIKE IT OR NOT ... our Cybertrucks are the man bites dog story of the hour. Nobody gives a $hit about Volvo accelerator pedals ...
  12. TONNEAU COVER STUCK AT 5 INCHES OPEN ... on long roadtrip ... any known fixes?

    GOT THE CT BACK FROM SERVICE ON 042624. They reported all they did was "recalibrated" the cover. I would of course have tried that myself ... but no alert appeared on any of my screens. The manual says that such an alert is necessary for an owner to initiate a recalibration. Oh well ... it...
  13. TONNEAU COVER STUCK AT 5 INCHES OPEN ... on long roadtrip ... any known fixes?

    Have tried screen reset, complete power off. Searched for any sort of manual release ... nothing. I note online that others have had this problem but no fix listed...they had to take it in. Serial number in 3200 range 2 motor picked up on 032024. Never rolled it completely up and down ... so...
  14. My Range Improved After Software Update 2024.8.7

    Note that for our new CTs to get OTA updates, we must first indicate a home address for HOME ... and then charge up at least once at that HOME. My update started right after I did that.
  15. My Range Improved After Software Update 2024.8.7

    Note that before getting over the air updates, you MUST indicate a HOME address for the Navigation...AND charge at that home address at least once. I read that, did it, and for the first time saw the little green arrow in the Tesla phone app showing it was downloading. After downloading...you...
  16. Tesla Must be starting back at the front of the reservation line for FS CT

    RESPECTFULLY ... you are SPECULATING also. We all have been speculating for over 4 years now on all things Cybertruck. That is why many of us check this page every day ... to hear about the latest news, rumors, and speculation ... including YOUR speculation today.
  17. Range for AWD Cybertruck 200-250 miles after many real world tests

    Respectfully, may I suggest you may want to read a bit more and broadly. Dozens of companies around the world are in a competition to come up with ever greater battery recipes. Companies such as QuantumScape, Ampirus, One ... and our very own NASA are already within a year or two of doubling...
  18. Range for AWD Cybertruck 200-250 miles after many real world tests

    All of these early anecdotal reports are interesting. If the upcoming real world range tests from Motortrend, Edmunds etc confirm these results ... well ... that is just the way it is. I would argue that the best range anxiety ... is NO RANGE ANXIETY. While anybody's guess is as good as mine...
