    Model Y towing RV - on Tesla's website

    Im curious, what RV model is that? Im not sure that's the most efficient one. Perhaps its better looking and that's why it was chosen. https://digitalassets.tesla.com/tesla-contents/video/upload/f_auto,q_auto/Model-Y-Utility-Desktop.mp4

    NACS / SAE J3400 to NEMA 5-15 adapter?

    I’m trying to find a solution to charge my e-bike in the garage. I could get an electrician to alter the small circuit box feeding my Tesla charger, or find an appropriate adapter that will convert to a NEMA 5-15. I found this adapter but it is not NACS, it is J1772. SUSUTOO J1772 to Nema 5-15...

    low-voltage battery & cold weather

    I hope you read the (somewhat biased) article from the NYTimes on the weather struggles people had this week with their Tesla. (TL;DR: apparently people don't pay enough attention to how to operate their vehicle in extreme-cold conditions...) In any case, they interviewed a former Tesla...

    Ceramic coating after two years?

    Hi, I’m tired of washing the car at the shop and paying $50. (I don’t have a garage, plus the Y is huge!). was thinking of getting ceramic coating to make it easy to self-wash at a coin wash. However, I’m not sure if it’s reasonable labor-wise to apply coating, as the car is two years old and...

    General diagnosis fee on warranty

    My Model Y started making click sounds from the AC (near glove box). I searched and saw this has been reported by multiple people. I scheduled a service with Tesla and they want to charge me $240 for general diagnosis. Should I complain, let it slide or avoid the service? 🤷

    Help - correct roof rack positioning?

    I didn’t pay attention to selecting the right crossbars (rear and front). Does this look right to you?

    Why not OEM tires?

    Why do people consider other tires than the Continental ProContact RX “19? I assume that the OEM tires the most tested to match the Model Y characteristics. I also assume that Tesla doesn’t cut corners for quality. What are the benefits of the other brands?

    Car wash needed for Autopilot sensors?

    Hi, I’m on a long road trip and the car accumulated a lot of dust. Should I be concerned about Autopilot sensors (aka repeaters) visibility? I can spray water on the vicinity (maybe coin op wash), or use my detailing spray, till I get home.

    Cargo box for Model Y hitch

    Hi, I need just a bit more storage for road trips. Since I have a hitch, I’m thinking of skipping the roof rack / cargo setup and go with a hitch cargo box (less expensive setup, easier to remove vs roof rack). Any thoughts? Anyone has experience with such a setup?

    Our of warranty rapairs

    I hope I don’t repeat other threads. I was just wondering, do people maintain their out-of-warranty old Model S at the Tesla service center or do they go to a local mechanic like the general ICE owners?

    V10.8 UI: navigate-on-autopilot button

    Is this button the same old “navigate on autopilot” button from pre v10.8/v11? What exactly is it’s function for FSD Beta (v10.8)? Does highway navigation still requires me to push this button?

    Tesla Wall Charger VS J1772

    Hello, I'm doing a project in my multi home building where several of us are installing an EV Charger and get rebates from the local government. The only caveat of this program is it requires the charger to be J1772. Would it be terrible for me to install a Chargepoint Flex or other non-Tesla...

    Major Yoke concerns from Consumer Reports initial review

    Summary: Deep dive: what do you all think? I know people are dismissing CR as biased against Tesla but having followed CR reporters for years I believe they aren’t. Also, watching the deep dive, those seem like valid concerns. I haven’t tested the Yoke, I enjoy my Model Y for now. I’m just...

    Autopilot drive experience - relaxing or scary?

    I own a Model Y since March and have been trying giving in to AP (both adaptive cruise control and auto steer). Sadly, instead of easing my drive, I find it more taxing: 1. AEB doesn’t slow ahead of slow traffic and wait for the last minute to break, which is both scary (“speeding” towards...

    Storing the vehicle

    What should I if I keep the car parked for a month? Should I keep it plugged and charging when it needs to do that? Honestly I’m a bit concerned leaving the charger in the wall socket for a whole month (it’s the mobile one Tesla gave me on delivery). Any advice? Thank you!!

    Mirror auto tilt issue

    Hi, When auto tilt is off, nothing changes (that’s ok). When I turn auto tilt on and switch to reverse, both mirrors tilt. However - when I switch back to drive, only the left mirror tilts back. The right mirror doesn’t. Anyone else noticed this issue?

    Your alignment concerns are not covered by warranty.

    Hi, I picked up my 3 row Model Y this month and finally came to inspect for misalignment. I have noticed a few main things: 1. Rear door does not close nicely, which a body shop told me is related to gaps. 2. Third row is misaligned between the two seats and 2nd row is just a touch misaligned...

    Charging only at Superchargers

    Hi, does anyone know whether charging 3-4 times a week at a city supercharger is unhealthy? I plan do keep the charge up to 90% and above 20%. I plan to charge at a 72 kWh city supercharger if that matters. Another option is to charge nightly with a 120V charger every night, which will let me...
