    Creaky Driver Seat

    2021 Model 3, LR AWD Driver seat has started making a constant "creaking" sound. It also feels as though the seat never returns to the position it was previously in. As though it slowly loses its positioning, little by little. Has anyone else encountered this issue? Service appointment...

    Model 3 Updated Door Panels

    Personally I like the wood on the dash. I think it breaks up the amount of black in the cabin. I do not like the wood on the doors. I think the new design makes the car look more...i dont want to say claustrophobic but tighter. Like the wood is surrounding you and making the interior appear...

    2021 Owners....Deep rumbling noise?

    They said it’s 100% normal and that they tested two other 2021 model 3 and they both did the same thing. Apparently it’s a known problem but they do not have any fix for it

    It is 100% the heat pump. I owned a model Y for 6 months and never experienced this. Guess it’s an exclusive model 3 issue

    Anyone Getting Vibrations and Buzzing Noise While Stopped on 2021 M3??

    I just got my car back from the service center yesterday for this exact issue (2021 M3 LR AWD. This is exactly what was on my invoice: Concern: Customer states: Car is vibrating when AC system is on and stops once AC system is turned off. Owner thinks may be heat pump related as it originated...

    2021 Model 3 Vibrating in park

    Correct. I realized the way I was parked (on an incline) for some reason made it feel like it was coming from the rear. However after multiple other occurrences, I was able to confirm that it was coming from the front of the vehicle. Tesla tested 3 other 2021 model 3 and confirmed they all had...

    2021 Owners....Deep rumbling noise?

    Having the same issue in my '21. Sitting in the car and the entire thing vibrates. I did not have this issue when I had a Model Y. It is 100% related to the A/C and almost positive the cause is the heat pump. I have an appointment on the 15th for Tesla to diagnose. If anyone has specific A/C...

    2021 Model 3 Vibrating in park

    really? I don’t remember this feeling on my previous 3 or Y. I really don’t think it’s that. I mean I could be wrong but this vibration is shaking the entire vehicle, I can feel it in my seat and steering wheel this was my original thought as well, but isn’t that up front? This distinctively...

    2021 Model 3 Vibrating in park

    Noticed today that while in park, my car would occasionally vibrate. It felt how a subwoofer feels and was coming from towards the rear of the vehicle. No rhyme or reason as to when it would happen, just would vibrate my entire seat. I was in Park, my music was off, lasted a few seconds...

    Dashcam icon frequently dissapearing after last update

    Got my Tesla back from the service and specifically noted the problem. They told me it was functioning normal and that it was the SSD that was causing the problem. well that was a lie. Using the usb stick that comes with the car and no dash cam. Works in park but as soon as I switch to drive...

    Dashcam icon frequently dissapearing after last update

    I am 99% sure it’s a software problem. I took delivery of my 21 model three in late December. It’s been happening since then. It’s currently in the service center for some other things but that is a line item that they are going to look at. I has two other teslas with the same Samsung SSD and...

    Tesla shop uses product photos that no longer exist

    Anyone else ever notice that the Model 3 photo used in the Tesla shop is for floor mats they no longer sell? these mats used to be similar in shape and size to the standard format but made out of a stick rubber. So less sidewalls for protection. They were more suited for a California winter...

    Puddle Lights - Problem with Rear Doors

    I did not. I only installed the AO logo puddle lights in the front doors and their standard upgrade on the rear doors. I am pretty sure they mention it on the website that the logo puddle lights draw more power and if all doors are open, the rears will not illuminate. Once I switched out the...

    Puddle Lights - Problem with Rear Doors

    its because you have the Logo lights in the front. They draw more power than the standard light pattern. Thus when you have your front door open and then open the rear, the rear will not illuminate. If you purchased just the standard upgrade LED, all 4 doors will work just fine. I know from...

    2021 Model 3 vibrating

    That’s crazy. I never felt my previous Y do it. I’ve added it on to my next service center appointment (which has already been rescheduled by Tesla 3 times). I’ll update accordingly. Thanks for the info.

    2021 Model 3 vibrating

    I need something interesting today where my car would randomly vibrate. It was a light vibration and felt somewhat like a subwoofer. This was happening while parked. I think I’ve narrowed it down to something with the AC system or possibly the heat pump because when I turned off my AC...

    Agreed. I had the 3D mats in my 2019 model 3 and 2020 Model Y. There was no form fitting or extra steps required. Theyre floor mats, its not that complicated. I have already processed the return. I have to pay for the return shipping which sucks considering its due to a product defect, but...

    Discussion: Floor Mats in Model 3

    So then RPMTesla is either running a scam or being scammed themselves. Either way it’s not a good look. I’ll be returning mine come Monday. Do you have the contact information for the 3D maxpider manufacturer or an email that says the 2021 model 3 floor mats are not produced yet?

    This is exactly what is happening to me. Ive had the 3D maxpiders in previous Tesla's with 0 issues. However in the 2021 model 3, the passenger side just is not fitting right. I dont know if its the resellers falsely claiming that they are designed for 2021 or if the manufacturer did not...

    Discussion: Floor Mats in Model 3

    Yup. Absolutely what I chose. even when I was able to get the mat in without it creasing, it never sat flat on the floor. Meaning I could push down on the mat where your feet would go, sort of like an air bubble

    Question on Screen Protectors?

    I’ve had the matte screen protector in all of my Tesla’s. While no screen protector is ideal, the matte is necessary for sunny texas. Really cuts down on glare that pops through the sunroof. some may argue that a screen protector isn’t worth it, but my fear was since it’s the main screen that...

    Chipped trim from window, driver and passenger ('21 LR)

    Tesla said they would be ordering parts. Sounds like it would be covered. I can’t imagine it’s not covered. It’s clearly a defect for their vehicles. Especially since I’m in Dallas where our cold is around 30° at worst. It’s not like the car was a frozen block of ice in the South Pole.

    Any model 3 owners with a 3D printer?

    I do not have a printer. That’s sort of the problem. Would you be able to print some different versions of these and then I can pay you for shipping? Or know how to get local 3D printing done? according to the manual the screws are 10-24 X 3/8 PHILLIPS PAN HEAD MACHINE SCREW WITH IT LOCK WASHER

    Any model 3 owners with a 3D printer?

    looks amazing! I see the design has changed a bit to take into account the contours of the dash. using the smaller piece that screws into the light could be a good solution. I assume one on each side of the light? How much would it cost to physically print one of these?

    Any model 3 owners with a 3D printer?

    The idea was to limit having to mount anything to the windshield or to the car. by flipping the bracket upside down, I would have to figure out a way to attach it to the dash/speaker grill. The goal is to keep it removable with no modifications to the vehicle. using the suction cups as they...
