I thought that was the case with mine, but literally EVERY TIME I have to change lanes it’s requesting me to put pressure on the steering wheel. Even if it’s 5-10 seconds after I just put pressure on it.

Is there a way to just let the car do all the lane changes without having to acknowledge them? I have FSD and I turned off the option of needing to acknowledge a lane change by tapping the turn signal stalk, but I still have to apply pressure to the steering wheel before it’ll make the lane...

So I’m looking to possibly ceramic tint my roof tomorrow. Also having the front two windows and even the windshield done. I know the roof is already tinted, but can anyone give me statistics on how much sun is actually coming through the roof currently with the factory tint? I’m curious how...

So I'm doing 3rd party financing through a local credit union here in ohio Wright Patt Credit Union. They are asking for Tesla to provide the MCO. My delivery specialist mentioned they don't typically have an MCO till after the car is registered or something. I'm hopeful this isn't going to be a...

Yep. I have a loan on mine from BMW and they're handling it all in the background. I had to send them payoff information on it and my account info. Upon pickup, they'll give me a check sense the quote is more than I owe, then they'll mail a check to BMW who I'm financing from. Sounds smooth...

So similar to others who got a follow up quote from Vroom for an additional $500 after a few days, I just got that and it puts them ahead of of Carvana by a couple hundred. Is the experience with Vroom similar to Carvana as far as getting it picked up and stuff?

Just ask your service advisor when you get assigned a VIN. They can give you all the details of the car including build date and history if it was rejected. It’s also the service advisor who reassigns it so you can tell him outright you don’t want a car that was rejected due to issues. In many...

I thought the same thing about the 7 days, but after talking to someone at Carvana yesterday, once they’ve confirmed your documentation and approved it all, you actually have 2 weeks or up to 2k miles to turn the car in which baffles me.

Can someone explain which one should be used between a NEMA 14-30 or 10-30 outlet? Looking to do a 30 amp (clearly) breaker and run the outlet about 40-50 feet from the electric box to an outside outlet. That outlet will be house in some kind of box to help store not only the outlet but the...

So what all did they do when they picked it up? Did they inspect it, drive it, etc? I’m curious how quickly they pay things off. And yea, mine has gone up $2k in just a couple weeks, but I also know newer, low mileage, luxury cars are selling really high on the used car market. I’m getting...

You can change financing terms all the way up till you take delivery. They typically just want someone to have approval for financing before shipping the car.

I just got my first offer on Vroom. When they gave you another offer for an additional $500, did that happen via email automatically? Someone call you? Did you do just another appraisal and it went up? Right now, the offer is fairly decent, but Carvana is about $400 more and those two are the...

This may not be the best place to post this, but here I go. Given my appraisal from Tesla for my trade in dropped 25% between March and June, I'm looking at alternatives. I could sell private, but that's time consuming. I've done a few online offers and by far, Carvana has come back with a more...

This was the original posters suggestion for those people who fall outside the return date of the car. It's not something Tesla is actually doing or will do.

Again, is there ever a good time to drop a price without someone complaining? We just learned they’re no longer going to offer the standard range option for MY so that’s one reason for the discounted price. So for those people holding out for that, this helps them. Tesla still has a high demand...

That does help. I understand the variables that could have a major impact on efficiency: towing, weather, elevation, etc. I think for me it was that 234 wh number that baffled me. I c would see people post 250+ wh or something and not know what that meant, but in your example, that would go in...

But where do you draw a line with it all? I would say that the people who fall within the 7 day return window have a decent shot at getting the discount applied, but if they get it, then you'll have the people who were at 8 or 10 days who are asking for it. Also, are companies not allowed to...

So I've been reading alot of articles about how people are testing their efficiency in their cars and alot of the time they talk in terms of kwph. As a first time EV owner (soon to be with a MY), can someone dumb down how to better understand how I can tell if my driving is efficient with a...

A post like this screams entitlement, in my opinion. You purchased the car at a price you were comfortable with and, unless you were naive, understood that the pricing would change at some point in the future. It could have been a month , a handful of months, a year...but it was going to change...

Out of curiosity, what is your VIN range? I know quality has improved drastically since the beginning of July given the massive push at the end of the quarter where stuff suffered. Curious where your VIN range was.

What's the VIN range on this and do you happen to know the build date? Should find that date on the inside, drivers side door (I think). Curious when this one may have been built and if it was part of the end of quarter rush.

Yea. The imperfections are what I’m concerned about. I haven’t gotten my car yet (delivery in a week) so I’ll have to see what the paint looks like then and decide. I’ve got IronX, Eraser, the Uk 3.0 and reload. When I contacted CarPro they said for a new car, Clay barring may not be needed.

Looking to possibly do my own ceramic coating and was curious who had some suggestions as far as which one to go with and any other pointers for a first timer. The car will be exposed to the elements since I don't have a garage to store it in. This is in Ohio so weather fluctuates. I'm leaning...

What were the VIN ranges of the two you declined? I’m curious how far the new VINs have come.

27xxx here.

What’s your VIN number? Or at least range...

I can't entirely believe this was coincidence, BUT within a couple hours of placing the 2nd order, I got a VIN on my original order in my source code and on my order page. LOL. We'll see how long it takes to get delivery information.

I like the black. The think that bothered me with it is that it’s not metallic. Which is kind of a bummer and when you look at the rest of the car, there’s a lot of black going on which is cool, but they’re all different shades of black which also bothers me. I’d still take it, if it’s the first...

So I ordered a LR AWD Black/Black, 20” rims, FSD MY back in Feb of this year. Was told it was being built end of last month and my DS claims there’s a VIN and it’s in preproduction. Still not seeing a VIN in source code. After thinking long and hard, decided I would probably want the MSM color...

Thanks for everyone’s feedback! I’ll push to just do a 30amp and for the NEMA 14-30. Makes the most sense and the safest option given my current load and needs.

I wouldn’t say a crazy deal, but if he does 35 or less he can use 10 gauge wiring which is a big cost saving. Couple that with me being ok with 20ish miles an hour charge and my current box going to be pushed to the max if much more it’s a good idea to keep it less. Again, I have no plans to...

Ok. So if he did a 35amp I should set it to 28 max, correct? Which is fine for me. I have zero plans to do the wall connector. Just the mobile one with an attachment so I can get away with less charge, but I need more than the typical 115.

Hello, I see where most people are going with a. 50 amp breaker and then dialing it down to 32 which I think is the max for a a Tesla currently using the mobile charger. My electrician said he could just do a 35 amp breaker and it would save some and my current box is already going to be...

First time EV (soon to be) owner. Does the new Y come standard with a 14-50 adapter with the mobile charger? I think someone said at one point you have to buy the adaptors? Also, can someone explain the difference between 14-50 and 6-50? Also, given my house is already close to the total amp max...

Yea. I've already had the discussion with my Delivery Specialist about making sure whenever mine does come in to make it perfect before I pick it up. Went through some of the things I've been reading about and he was quick to say a few times that they make sure it's all "within spec" beforehand...

I wanted a Performance, but just a hair out of my price range. haha. Also, if it was a reject, probably had something wrong with it.

Great feedback! I have a friend who's a delivery manager here in Columbus and he's been good at keeping me up to date on things. I can't figure out if the texts area automated, but I know if I respond to them, I think my text goes to my delivery center and they pick it up and respond, but it's...

I’ll hopefully be taking delivery in the next week or two and was curious if anyone on here could speak to their delivery experiences at Ohio delivery centers, specifically Columbus if possible. I’m hearing a lot of quality issues across the board and delivery centers talking about within spec...

So I was told today by the delivery manager that I have a car in pre-production. Does anyone know exactly what that means? We are at the end of the 2-4 week window from the text blast at the beginning of the month so I'm certain I won't have it before the end of the month, but curious what the...

So what’s the deal with Tesla service after you do the initial delivery and if you need something fixed (almost everyone seems to need something fixed)? I’ve seen some people post about needing to do it within 100 miles of taking delivery but does that mean you just need to submit for it before...

Question for those setting up service appointments after delivery (basically everyone). How do those work exactly? I see people say you have to do it within 100 miles or something but if you can’t get a service appointment within a week or so, I can’t see staying under 100 miles if you drive it...

Are you doing ceramic tint on the front windows? I’m going to assume the back ones aren’t ceramic from factory.

Following because I'm trying to decide if I want to just tint the front two windows with ceramic and leave the rest factory or ceramic all side and back windows in ceramic. Also looking to do the roof and curious what % people are getting on that.

Mine did the same, but I'm all but certain this number relates more to source code programming and has nothing to do with the actual build of the car. I've seen other people comment that this number actually didn't reflect their build at all and at times they received the car before this...

Ugh...still waiting on my VIN. Ohio based here. This is week 4 after the mass 2-4 week text went out so I'm hoping I hear soon. Did you find yours in source code or is it showing up for you already?

To confirm, I should be checking the source code for something that starts with 5YJ, correct? That's what I've read on everything.

Still no VIN. I’ve checked source code and nothing there. Located in Ohio.

So last Sunday, I got the text saying my car will be built in the next 7 days meaning either today or Tuesday (if they don't include weekends) which has me excited, BUT, how truthful is that text? I see some people getting updates like this and others not. I guess my big question is, has anyone...

Yea. If after 10 days it only goes down a couple hundred, I’d be ok with that. It’s already on the higher end of what I even thought I’d get as a trade in without purchasing. Just waiting now till I get the word on delivery of the Y.

@Speedr117 , well I got the text this past Sunday the car would be built "in the next 7 days" and once it starts moving to the delivery center they'll contact me". I've already reached out to my local BMW dealer and also have an initial appraisal through Carvana. Both of them are reasonable to...
