Tesla's Supercharger Team was recently laid off. We discuss what this means for the company on today's TMC Podcast streaming live at 1PM PDT. You can watch on X or on YouTube where you can participate in the live chat.
Tesla software 2024.14.6 has a Playlist option in the Bluetooth section of the audio controls.
Any clues on how to make and use a bluetooth playlist? (I'm not finding anything in the Owner's manual, TMC, or the web.)
It'd be great to have the touchscreen select from the Pocket Casts queue and...
There should be a "safely eject USB" feature to stop all activity to all USB partitions (sentry, music, and any future partitions).
There is a hidden long-press to stop the Dashcam. It works but it doesn't promise to pause all USB activity and it's hard to find in the Controls or the Owner's...
When you go to enter a rental Model Y into ABRP, how to tell which variant it is?
The touch screen reveals the model year.
For 2022 Model Y, ABRP supports 7 variants:
* Long Range NCA or 4680 battery;
* Standard Range 62, 60, or 67.5 kWh;
* Performance NCA or 4680 battery.
I could see it...
The service center uses a long neck OilSafe spout to add windshield washer fluid without needing a funnel that blocks seeing the fluid level before it spills over.
Can anyone recommend a suitable size bottle with a long neck like this? Or a long neck attachment for the usual gallon bottle?
It was news to me: You can now use phone-as-key, phone app remote controls, download driver profile, and Bluetooth streaming with a rented Tesla!
This helped a lot, e.g. for remote defrosting.

Notes:
* It was a mistake to try to set up both of...
How reliable is 2023.32?
There's a long thread in the UK subforum on phantom braking problems when passing cars in adjacent lanes and frequent wake-ups when parked.
So far, the reports are up to 2023.32.6.

On 2023.20.9 (2020 Model 3 LR) when streaming Bluetooth, occasionally the skip forward/back steering wheel clicks will instead switch to FM or streaming.
This is disruptive and confusing. It seems random, e.g. not correlated to double-clicking.
Anyone else encountered this bug? Any workaround?
The "large text" option is terrific, and it works on the web browser's query field but not on the page contents. That text is so small that I find it very difficult to read even while parked.
(Prescription glasses make text sharper but not larger.)
Display a message with each UI chime/tone to explain what it means.
Make a log of recent tones reviewable later.
Add the UI chimes/tones to the Owner's Manual.
Road trip partners and car renters won't suss them out.
UI tones include: fasten seat belt, door/trunk open, P/R/N/F gear shift...
A quick tap on the turn signal stalk (also on yoke buttons?) fails to start the turn signal. If you don't notice that in a busy + noisy situation, then you have to push through the auto lane keeping feature.
To reliably start or stop signaling requires a longish tap, say 1/3 second. Even after...
The ability to filter which calendars sync to the car's display disappeared in a software update. Please bring it back.
It's easy for the phone to have a bunch of irrelevant calendars like the trash pickup schedule, birthdays, holidays, and family member time scheduling.

Some supercharger locations like Barstow, CA (Tanger Way) and Tusayan, AZ have a row of L2 Tesla "destination chargers."
Are they Free?
When would you use them?
This is the first time I've had snow on a car. On opening the trunk to get the ice scraper/brush, snow fell inside the trunk.
Do you keep the scraper in a map pocket?
I got out the bulk of the snow. Do I need to dry the upper and lower trunk?

My JuiceBox Pro 40 started doing a 5-beep error code, meaning the relay is stuck closed. Enel X said to try a power cycle, then try a few percussive taps on the sides while the power is off to release the mechanical relay.
That didn't work so they said return it to Costco. Today I decided to...
I thought the car listed radio stations in increasing frequency and the "next" button on the steering wheel went up in frequency, but tap the FM button in 2022.16.3 and they go down and back up?
Lately when my spouse and I approach the car (2020 Model 3 with s/w 2022.12.3.2) it's been doing a much better job of selecting the right driver profile.
Did Tesla get the car to determine which phone is closer to the driver's door?
> Tesla Inc. TSLA, -2.57% is recalling about 11,700 2017 to 2021 Model S, Model 3 and Model X vehicles, and 2020 to 2021 Model Y vehicles, because a communication error with the software may cause unexpected activation of the emergency brake system, according to a notice filed with the National...
Finally taking a road trip, my Model 3 LR broke down on the freeway outside Azalea, Oregon. Fortunately there was cellular coverage and the A/C worked. The tow truck arrived in 3 hours then took us and the car 200 miles to the Portland service center.
The next morning, the service center...
What makes the car randomly switch to my wife's driver profile?
Then it starts readjusting the seat when I get in. (Her profile is set for Easy Entry so it won't immediately squash me.)
Is it that her phone was recently near the car or contacted the car, even though I'm getting in with my...
Friends, these questions are about Model 3 climate controls, specifically LR if that matters. It's usually not in Auto climate mode. I did RTFM. In fact, it has the best automobile Owners Manual I've ever seen.
