    Loud hissing sound preconditioning

    My Model Y was parked outdoors overnight in low temperatures. Just before entering it, I initiated the preconditioning process, setting the temperature to 70 degrees while the car was connected to level 2 charging. To my surprise, the vehicle emitted a loud buzzing sound. Is this occurrence...

    Discussion: Model 3 and Y price drop Jan 2023 / April 2023 / Oct 2023 and All other Pricing Speculation going forward

    I believe they just started to increase the price to start triggering FOMO for all the people on hold for further discounts. This will help Tesla start moving inventory NOW instead of rushing in December with a massive influx of orders. I bet they will increase the price by another $500 in a...

    SF bay area to Tahoe without stopping?

    I've done the trip San Francisco - Truckee more than 30 times. With the Model 3 performance with all 18" season tires I would make it to Truckee without stopping with about 5-10% of battery left and driving 5mph above the speed limit during the climb. If weather if expected, you definitely must...

    Tax credit

    Maybe, but I would assume I would get assigned any cars that gets out of the factory. This is what happened to me when I did buy 2018 Model 3... If I click "I'm ready" will I get assigned a VIN? If I get it, can I still push the delivery?

    Tax credit

    I've been pushing my delivery since last October in the hope of getting the tax credit. Looking at the latest information, I'm not sure what to do. If I press the "I'm ready button" on Dec 1st, what are my chances of getting the car delivered in the first week or two in January? I live in the...

    I stopped there last Sunday around 8:30am. Unfortunately, the supercharger was not accessible because cops blocked access to the parking lot to forbid people parking their cars the usual Sunday car show. Around 9:30am, cops decided to let people park there and the charger was accessible. Be...

    98% for max charge?

    My 2018 Model 3 Performance is having the same issue. The app slider doesn’t let me select more than 98% charge. Any idea how to solve that? The car has 16k miles and the battery usually is set at max 50% charge since March.

    Looking for a quiet /comfortable 20” tire for daily / spirited driving

    Couple of months ago, I swapped to the 235/35ZR-20 FALKEN AZENIS FK510 XL for my Model 3 Performance. I've been pretty happy with it considering the price. I did not really notice any difference with the Michelin when it comes to handling, noticed a slight increase in road noise and efficiency...

    I was able to locate it. it's actually coming from the front right passenger, between the roof window and the body of the car. Imgur I'm not able to reproduce it when poking around the trims. Hence, it must be something behind the trim rattling. Could even be the window touching the body...
