    Abrupt Phantom Breaking at high speed - scary

    If we knew why it happened then Tesla would have fixed it by now. Only way to prevent it is to not use Autopilot or FSD.

    This is MY idea, you can't have it!

    There is a tire service reset in the car to track the miles since last tire service. But no reminder pop up when it’s due.

    The anti-Tesla EV lovers

    That’s the whole premise of this thread though? The OP is basically saying why would anyone buy an inferior EV, you should just buy a Tesla because it’s the best EV. Then people say why they don’t like Tesla. And here you are saying well no one’s making you buy a Tesla.

    Updated to v12, 2024.14.6 with FSD and it's awesome!

    Tesla removed parking sensors in 2023. No summon for you.

    Model 3 Highland White interior (US) waiting room

    I think the white interior is holding it up not the RWD. There’s various paint colors of both RWD and LR in inventory near me but all are black interior only.

    Entire Supercharging Team Fired?

    Remember that Tesla and BP already had a previous agreement (fostered under Tinucci) where BP was going to buy V4 Supercharger hardware from Tesla to deploy on their own charging network. So scooping up orphaned Tesla sites to deploy a BP branded site would be pretty trivial and easy work for...

    Updated to v12, 2024.14.6 with FSD and it's awesome!

    Auto trunk not available for old model 3. Summon not available for cars without parking sensors.

    MY 2024 Headlights not fully Illuminated

    It’s not a 2024 only thing. It’s been present since 2021 when they introduced the matrix headlights. They won’t do anything for you, it’s just how it is.

    MY 2024 Headlights not fully Illuminated

    The shadows are present on my 2022 Model 3 and will be on any 3/Y with the matrix headlights. They are not created by the reflectors. It’s created by the matrix LED array inside the projector. You can see the bottom section of the beam that’s cooler white, that is the foreground fill from...

    All US Cars capable of FSD will be enabled for one month trial this week

    2024.14.5 does not have FSDS v12 It has the new v12 UI update. Yes it’s confusing.

    2023 Model 3 LR type of battery?

    There are zero teslas worldwide with long range and LFP. It’s not possible to provide long range with LFP.

    The anti-Tesla EV lovers

    That’s absolutely true. If you dig deep and far enough you will find someone in any company or along supply chain that you disagree with. But with the CEO being so very publicly loud and proud about his direct stance on everything, it’s pretty easy for people to make that decision as all the...

    The anti-Tesla EV lovers

    That’s up to you and your own personal principles/morals. There’s no right answer. But supporting Tesla is basically supporting him and allows him to keep doing what he’s doing. The better Tesla does (or his other companies) the richer he gets. Just like some people avoid Chick-fil-A for the...

    The anti-Tesla EV lovers

    Because every other car on the road in many big cities is a Tesla and it’s just boring now. Because some people simply think Teslas are ugly and don’t like them. Because Tesla has made many curious choices n the latest cars which are unintuitive and harder to use or make the car worse (stalk...

    Luminar’s largest customer: Tesla

    They pretty much do exactly that as Tesla test cars have been spotted with LIDAR systems mounted on top. Which goes to show that vision will never be sufficient for true autonomy if they have to train the system with LIDAR since even with training vision can never be as precise as LIDAR or...

    How long between FSD computer update and download of version 12

    There is no software with a higher version than 2024.8.9 that also includes FSD v12 So just have to continue to wait.

    Double Pull Selection Deactivated with FSD, Cruise Control not available.

    You just make a new profile while on your profile and it copies all the current settings to make the new one.

    Costs/Hours to charge 2021+ MX/MXP 100kWh battery on Level 2 48A Wall Connector from 0-80% and 0-100% ?

    Well first of all you’ll probably never do 0-80% or 0-100% unless you constantly drive like 300+ miles a day. You should be charging daily and on average most people probably use 10-20% of battery a day. So you’re only charging 20 kWh at most, which should be done under 2 hours. That should be...

    Discussion : All discussion regarding Model 3 and Tax credit in model 3 subforum

    AFAIK Tesla has always honored the old price for existing orders after they increase prices. They have also lowered the price for existing orders if the price drops before you take delivery.

    When will trial start rolling out?

    There were many posts saying you’ll just get 11.4.x if you subscribe, so not sure where you got that impression. There is currently no way for your car to get FSD v12 because there is no version higher than 2024.8.9 that includes FSD v12.

    We have officially hit bottom!

    Yeah but a new one with the same options is $89630 now after destination.

    New M3 LR and P, LFP or no??

    No. There are zero AWD models with LFP. Only standard range RWD models.

    Ordering Connectivity after trial?

    Remote features all work with standard connectivity except the live sentry mode cameras

    USA MY RWD has soft limited LR battery!

    You can probably reach out to your designated contact and have the order switched to LR RWD if you don’t have a VIN and haven’t started the payment process yet. Of course, you would have to pay the difference in price since it’s a different model. But I wouldn’t expect to magically receive a...

    Some new data from research on Tesla model 3 cells

    I have acceleration boost and floor it every chance I get 🤷🏻‍♂️ 0-60 in like 3.9 seconds instead 3.7 isn’t the end of the world and barely noticeable unless you’re timing it.

    Depressing trend in EV's..

    While this is true for long distance travel, daily EV usage when you don’t have home or work charging is absolutely still a drag today. I would not own any EV if I didn’t have the ability to charge at home.

    FSD free trial is over

    Yes like I said it ends 30 days to the hour it was installed. Had it on the way to work, was gone on the way home. My “end date” was 4/30. It worked until 5/1 around 2:30 pm. It was installed 4/1 around 2:30 pm. Ending on 4/30 2:30 pm would have been 29 days not 30. Can think of it as 720...

    Entire Supercharging Team Fired?

    As Kyle from out of spec mentioned in his video, it’s a fairly big undertaking to upgrade a site almost as much as commissioning a whole new site. It’s not just as simple as swapping the pedestal out. Would require electrical upgrades and potential digging for new conduits and new cabinets...

    Cabin Overheat Protection - Necessary?

    It’s not meant to be comfortable. If you need it to be comfortable then you turn on dog mode or leave climate on. It’s to help prevent those tragedies that inevitably happen where people forget babies or animals in the car etc. 100°F is not comfortable but it’s survivable.

    Going from 2024.3.25 to 2024.14.x

    FSD is still embedded in the firmware whether it’s active or not, so you’ll have to wait until they release a new version with the UI updates that has FSD v12 baked in.
  34. E90alex

    FSD free trial is over

    It’s exactly 30 days to the hour that you installed it initially. So it will likely drop off at some point during the day today.
  35. E90alex

    Going from 2024.3.25 to 2024.14.x

    FSD is separate but also tied to the base firmware version. You cannot upgrade just the base firmware and leave the FSD part of the software on the car ”as is”. All firmware versions have some form of FSD now, but it may not be the latest FSD version. Right now the latest FSD version is on...

    Going from 2024.3.25 to 2024.14.x

    Yes updates are cumulative so the higher versions will include things that were changed or added in a lower version. But who knows if the 2024.3.x cars will even get 2024.14.x or if they won’t get updated until a future higher version.

    Highland: position side mirrors further out to cover blindspot

    I can’t get them wide enough either (pre-Highland but I don’t think the mirrors changed). I even have the euro convex mirrors and it’s not enough. My BMW with euro convex mirrors I can see 2 lanes over.

    Charging two Teslas

    First of all the wall connector does not use a 14-50 connector. It’s supposed to be hardwired directly. And no, they cannot share the same circuit. They both need their own independent circuit and breaker.

    How to disable new charge reminder?

    Tesla shipping unfinished/untested things? Never! 🥴

    Autopilot locked

    It only includes “Autopilot Safety Features” like emergency braking and blind spot detection.
  41. E90alex

    Cruise Control eliminated in latest update

    This is no longer true with single pull FSD. Overriding the steering will fully cancel all assistance.
  42. E90alex

    How to disable new charge reminder?

    Are you using more than 50% of your charge limit daily or are you just not plugging in every day? If the latter, why not? I’ve never received this notification personally. 🤷🏻‍♂️

    Home-charging

    Charge at the fastest rate your setup allows. No reason to reduce it. All L2 charging is “slow” charging and L2 charge rate has no effect on degradation. The biggest factor in degradation is average SOC.

    Some new data from research on Tesla model 3 cells

    Personally don’t notice a difference between power at 50% vs 80+%. It’s still way faster than it needs to be even at 35%.
  45. E90alex

    Some new data from research on Tesla model 3 cells

    Depends how you use it. It makes absolutely zero difference in the quality or experience of my ownership whether I charge to 50% or 80% because I plug in every day and only use 10-15% daily.

    Locked out of my M3P

    Android can act as NFC key (like the key card does). iPhone doesn’t have that function so holding an iPhone at the pillar does nothing.

    FSD free trial is over

    How is it being a Karen to expect something you pay for to work better? It’s a work in progress and needs criticism to improve. It doesn’t work how I like at the moment so I just won’t pay for it. No big deal. Doesn’t affect you. No need to be offended. If you like it then pay for it. No one’s...

    MY 2024 Refresh - Project Juniper?

    I mean not with a major overhaul like Highland was but there’s been some pretty significant changes every year. 2021 2.0 center console, HEPA filter 2022 MCU3 and Li-ion LV battery 2023 2.0 door panels and rear parcel shelf (and removal of USS) 2024 HW4

    FSD free trial is over

    I actually never had a problem with nags. Unlike most people I actually had my hand on the wheel at all times and actually paid attention to the road. No issues with nags. I was getting tired of “supervising” it’s excessive hesitancy when taking unprotected turns, poor lane section, poor lane...
