Where can you report a gas vehicle parked in the ev or Tesla charging spots It’s pretty rude they do that Very obligated It should be the same as not allowed to park in a handicap spot.

Has anyone experienced fuzzy images when in reverse and backing up to park? A related question is it possible that a car wash could be impacting a camera’s performance?

Will model 3p 20” wheels fit on a model y?

How many Model X Signature Series were made? I want to sell mine #534 and need to know. Thanks

We recently had a solar system installed that includes 2x Powerwall 3s and Telsa Backup Gateway 2. We're configured for partial backup with the A/C, Pool Pump, and Furnace remaining on the main panel. All other loads are on the backup panel. Our system is working flawlessly for all the backup loads, and we can monitor the coming and going of power through the system. However, the non-backup loads on the main panel continue to draw power from the grid and are not taking advantage of the self-generated power. I understand that this is because the Powerwall 3 does not support third party monitors, like Neurio that can help solar side determine where power flows from battery to grid. Anyone else experiencing this very frustrating and significant gap in the Powerwall 3 capability? We are continuing to draw ~15kwH per day to support our pool pump and that will double once temperatures start rising and we need our A/C. Is the short-term solution to move all loads to the backup side or wait for Tesla to offer a solution? Interested in your thoughts.

I had a road rage incident Saturday 4/27/24 at 7;45 am. and the police wants to identify the person, so I was trying to get the images from my car I try my mobile apps I and I could fine how to access the images. Eventually I want to Tesla, and I ask for some help. I was told that is USB Flah drive in my glove compartment. so, I want home to remove the flash drive and I attached to my desk top computer, and I was trying to fine the time image of the incident but was overridden by then due the small capacity of the flesh drive.
The question is can I still get the images of the incident from Tesla?

Hey all,

Where do you recommend getting some satin black touch up paint from? I have Replika Uberturbine rims that got some road rash on them!

I've looked at Canadian Tire and done some google searching but no results inspire confidence!

Please let me know, thanks!

I towed my boat to the lake with X, like I have done many times. When launching I got in a little too far into the water and my X shut down. The bumper was maybe 1inch into the water. I'm thinking maybe the trailer electrical connection got wet and shorted. I'm nit sure. But the car won't start, says it needs service. Any ideas on how I could handle without Towing and waiting a week+ for service?

My apologies if this is the wrong place to post, but I leased my MYLR 2024 in March 2024 through a referral. The person referring me got the 10,000 credits, but I did not/am not seeing my 1yr premium connectivity (only showed the standard 1mo in the app) nor the 3mo full self driving.

Do leased vehicles get the buyer credit? It seems they should if my referrer received their credits. Thanks!

Hi there, can anyone tell me if Tesla are looking at turning off the rear sensor when towing? For as soon as i hitch anything up to my MYP the sreen flickers showing another vehicle close up behind me which is obviously the item im towing!!

It would not be too bad if it were constantly showing on the screen but its not and flickers sometimes randomly which can be very off putting when driving as i can see it out of the corner of my eye!!

Lets hope its a simple software fix on a future update or does anyone have a workaround till that happens?

Help needed: I'm trying to install a home Level 2 charger, and am having one of those worst-case scenarios where an older breaker box can't accommodate another 240-volt breaker, and the electrician is providing a quote that includes an auxiliary panel which will take the total installation past $7,000. The house has sufficient service, only the panel is the problem. I feel like there must be some load management solution. Thoughts ?

Hi everyone. I’m in the US and just purchased a ‘23 Model S, and want to install a charger in my home. I am retired so just need the car for local and mid distant trips, but the closest Supercharger is 30 miles from my house. I was thinking of installing a Level 2 Tesla Charger, 50 amp (we have a brand new home which will give me 44 miles/hour of a charge, BUT maybe I don’t need that much? Maybe a lower amp charger
Would be enough? I’d appreciate any and all thoughts! Thank you. Ron C.

My Connectivity subscription expires in a few weeks? What do you think or who has the $9.99 monthly or $99.00 yearly subscription and is it worth it over the "standard" setup we all get from Tesla?

Tesla Model S stops accumulating miles on car and phone at 204 miles. Does anyone else experience this? It shows total miles after charging, about 258. Which is 80% of full capacity.

Hi All

I've owned a white Model 3 Performance since 2019 and covered 50,000 miles. Had a few issues over that time but nothing major and all sorted under warranty. Still love the 3p and can’t see what other manufacturer gives the same performance for the price.

It's now well out of its factory warranty, though I have added an extended warranty via Tesla with 18mths to run.

I was holding on for the new Highland Performance, but I am now unsure due to its cost/interest rates, and uncertainties regarding horsepower and battery specs for the UK.

Instead, I might sell my current 3p and purchase a newer 3p in a different color, with Full Self-Driving (coming soon to the UK? ), boombox, the newer cpu to take the new UI on the latest update, and a heat pump.

I need to know the oldest model year that includes all of the above updates without compromising on some of the downsides (battery? parking sensors?)

Can anyone advise which model year would meet these requirements?

All I’m asking for is the moon on a stick

Appreciate any advice/guidance.

First of all, apologies as I’m sure this must have been discussed in the UK forum but I couldn’t find anything.

I’m shortly going to take delivery of a Model 3 and have been perusing the manual.

It’s suggested in the manual that the brake callipers need to be lubricated every year when road salt is used (like in the UK) and the tires need to be rotated every 6250 miles.

In my 22 years of driving I’ve never rotated tires, I just change them as a pair when either the front or back gets low on tread. Am I alone here? Should I have been rotating all along? Or is this a Tesla specific problem? Reading online this seems to be common practice in the States.

I’ve also never gone out of my way to have the brake callipers lubricated and I’ve never seen it itemised on a ICE service, outside of having brakes replaced when worn.

What is the general consensus amongst UK Tesla drivers?

I noticed this "ML" on my car above the driver door after going through the laser wash (while trying to remove all those drip marks that the rain-x protect whatever residue left). I tried to wipe at it with a microfiber cloth to no avail. I hand washed my car again after and still can't get it off.

Now I'm curious what this is for. Anyone works/worked for Tesla and knows if this is written in the factory? (I have a MYLR if it matters).
Also, what is it written with so I can figure out how to remove this stubborn thing.

Since Tesla partnered with Apple Maps, it is apparently no longer possible to plot out a trip which includes charging stations unless you’re sitting in the car. When you click on navigation within the iPhone Tesla app, it takes you out of the Tesla app and into Apple Maps. Here you can plan a route like you would in any other car but you can’t see when or where you will need to charge. This is a serious inconvenience when planning, for example, a long summer road trip. Is this an unintended (or intended?) consequence of the partnership with Apple Maps, or am I missing something?

Hello, I recently purchased a 2019 Tesla Model 3 which only has 1423 miles on it. This is my second day owning this vehicle and I have found out some interesting information and am looking to the community to see if we should keep this vehicle or return it.

First off, we love the vehicle, and the Tesla product from our first experience. Our issue however is this. The vehicle somehow avoided any contact with Tesla for the last 3-4 years and never received any update since 2019.40.50.7 which is currently installed. My vehicle will not receive OTA updates at all, and Tesla is saying we need to come back in a month for our scheduled appointment to see what the issue is. I am sure the OTA update just won't push out to this vehicle as it needs too many or something. This is currently affecting vehicle connectivity. Where this is important is, access to the Tesla Chargers and phone access / connectivity as a phone key etc.

Does anyone have any ideas on how I could try to get this issue resolved myself? Is there a way I can download and install the software updates myself? I am computer literate and am not afraid of DIY, I am just not sure if I should wait past the return window I have to return this car and hope there are no other issues with this vehicle's computer in a month or can I begin the updates and see if I can get close to the update needed for the system to start updating OTA again.

I do not know any of the history of this vehicle either other than the current mileage and the vehicle was a 1-owner in California and has no accident history reported on CarFax.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. The vehicle works great but in the current setup, we are not able to gain any connectivity from the Tesla App thus we are not able to use the Tesla Chargers in the network. I have a charger home that is a rapid charger and for the most part, the vehicle will be charged at home with our own charger.

Hi All

Recently ordered the MYRWD and waiting allocation of VIN. Exciting times ahead.

I am looking at charging options and wondering if some of you can help!

Car usage will most likely be limited to <50-75km per day maybe the occassional 100km weekend day.

Got a single phase home, i know few options are either:
1. UMC and plug it to normal power point but will be a slow charge
2. Get a 32a line installed by electrician and use UMC to get max 7kw output
3. Install 32a and get Tesla Wall charger

My question would be if I were to go with the 3rd option, are there benefits of single phase home using Tesla Wall Charger as I can't maximise the charge output of 11kw? Not planning to get a 2nd EV yet so no power sharing.

I feel like going with option 1 to save cost of install but also trying to see benefits of the other options!

For context I have solar as well so intend to use its output as much as possible.

Any ideas or best approach?

Tesla is doing the Powershare install and they say they charge a minimum $3500 so that is the quote they gave me but there was no description of the work or location of equipment. They said if the install is very simple they change the flat $3500.00, if you want to change anything they charge the full amount for the change. There is no unused credit if the install was simple.

I have a panel/load center on the side of the house and one in the garage.

There is an existing 1" conduit that goes underground from the house to the garage.

When I had the Model S and the Gen 2 - 80A wall charger I was wanting to get 100A into the garage but I never did. If I understand the Conduit Fill Tables correctly a 1" PVC conduit would max out at 100A with three 3 gauge wires. Another chart shows three 2 gauge wires can fit but that would just get you 115A.

Now the wall charges and EVs max out at 48A, so no need for more than a 60A breaker?

Would I be able to get another Tesla Wall Charger and load share the same 60A circuit or is this not allowed with the Tesla Wall Charger that is used with Powershare?

There is another 1" conduit through the garage pad only so I'd have to re-trench the conduit outside.

Almost looks like they are adding another load center ('C' on the diagram) on the house and replacing the one in the garage with a 125A load center.



The RELAY is the gateway. They had said the Gateway would be installed under the stairs but it's too close to the PG&E gas main and the posts for the stairs would be in the NEC Workspace.


Was thinking it would be something like this. I had to ask them three times to find out where they are planning to mount the equipment.


Now I think it would be something like this. They were going to just run conduit up over the door. The door goes into a utility room and the walls are unfinished so the said it would be a few hundred more to run the conduit inside.


If they can run the wires inside maybe they can go around the side. Seems silly when they could go right next to the existing load center save for the codes/safety.


The new load center 'C', I think is because there is no more room in the existing load center. But I don't know how they are bypassing the current circuits to send only utility power only to the gateway and not energizing existing circuits. They show a relocated breaker in 'C' going out 'To (E) Loads'. I think that is going back into the existing load center that will still have all the breakers for everything in the house?

The existing load center has 14 spaces and 6 are already doubled up. The bottom 4 spaces are for the 20A to the garage and a 30A for a wall heater. If the wall heater could go up top with the dryer in a 30A quad breaker that would leave 4 spaces at the bottom.

They may already be doing this to get the second 125A breaker that goes out to the gateway. I still do not know why the new load center 'C' is needed.

It seems like you could have the new 125A breaker that takes the utility power from the exiting 125A main breaker then goes out to the gateway in spaces 11-12. Then the power would come right back in from the gateway to power the existing breakers in the existing load center. The 60A breaker shown in new load center 'C' could go in spaces 13-14 and then out to the garage.


I asked for the make, model and or dimensions of the gateway and the two new 125A load centers. They did not tell me the size of the gateway but did tell me the part numbers for the two new load centers and they see way overkill for just a few breakers in each.

Load center, Homeline, 1 phase, 24 spaces, 48 circuits, 125A convertible main lugs, PoN, NEMA3R
Load center, Homeline, 1 phase, 12 spaces, 24 circuits, 125A convertible main lugs, PoN, NEMA3R

They are both for outdoor use and seem way too big. I guess the smaller one should be for the garage but it will not fit or they are planning to surface mount it?

Got a flat recently and my Tesla started leaking, what’s this part called? Can I just use jb weld?

Hi Fabulous Tesla family- I want to replace my 2023 Tesla model Y drivers seat with something like my old Subaru Forester's drivers seat. Any recommendations on a place that can do this, preferably in California?
