    Adding artwork to songs that are missing it.

    It's not fully a Tesla topic but some experts here will probably have the answer. As the title suggests, I'm looking for a way to embed artwork into the songs that have lost their artwork. I've tried iTunes (or Music as it's now called) and that app has fought me at every step in one way or...

    Is premium paint more durable?

    I've seen a lot of post about Tesla paint chipping or scratching, seemingly more easily than the owners would have expected. I have the Red Ultra, which is an upgrade and, as I understand it, a thicker coat of paint. I'm wondering if it's more durable than standard paint. I tend to wash it more...

    When using USB music, better to partition a single drive or use hub?

    I've read conflicting reports about this topic, and now that 2024 models are released, as well as some recent software updates, I thought I'd ask specifically: is it better to get a large single drive and create two partitions (one for Sentry recordings and one for music), or is it better to...

    Apple Music, shuffle mode w/ 100+ songs

    I have about 700 songs in a particular Apple Music playlist. The car only shows 100 at a time, so there are 7 pages of songs. This isn't a problem, HOWEVER when using shuffle mode (as I always do) it only seems to pull from the 100 songs on the particular page you're currently viewing. Hit...

    Tinting front side windows only -- est. cost?

    The title says it all. I'm looking to tint the driver and front passenger side windows only, to match the rears, and wondering what ballpark prices should be.

    Audio vs. Sentry USB sticks

    The car came with a USB stick in the glovebox which acts as storage for Sentry videos. I also have a USB stick containing a slew of songs that I'd like to add to the car. I'm wondering if I can keep that Sentry USB and just add the 2nd music USB, and if so where should it go? I know that some...

    The front tweeters are not my favorites.

    I have an MYP, which means that I have the upgraded audio system. I don't know much about this -- what its components are or how they differ from the other Teslas or other car brands -- I only know what I hear. In general, it sounds very good. But the tweeters in the front, and perhaps others...

    The Modern Spare tire doesn't secure in the trunk, or does it?

    From what I've gathered via a search and reading a few threads, it sounds like the Modern Spare tire doesn't fit under the trunk's floorboard, which means that it'll need to be above, in the main area, which probably means that it won't be secured and just floating around back there. Or, tell...

    The MYP is quite a performer.

    There's a section of Mulholland Drive, facing the Valley side, which has a fun series of S-curves -- for or five of them, slightly banked -- and it's a well-known place to test the car's handling. I (safely, of course) take each new car up there to see how it does. Two cars back I had an Alfa...

    Southern Californians - do you stick with your performance tires?

    At 45 degrees performance tires harden and can get slick on pavement. In LA it doesn't often get to 45 but it does happen, especially winter nights. A couple cars ago I had high performance tires (Pirelli Corsas) and never swapped over to all-seasons at any point. There were a few times when I...

    How are the standard '04 MYP tires in rain and cold?

    I'm not yet even sure which tires come on this model, but I've had a lot of experience with pure performance tires and I know that they can be tricky when the temperature drops, when it rains, and especially when both occur. The Pirellis I had on a previous car lost much of their grip when temps...
