Correct and correct. Luckily a lot of car appliances are 12-24V to support 24V RVs. I had a brief scare when I took that voltage until I remembered my car fridge was meant for car+RV. Verify your radar detector can also do dual voltage before plugging it in! Edit- 2024 M3P

Will do! Yeah agreed, seems like an easy install if they can find the part no. But I recall that newer model Teslas need to have activation of Homelink done by a tech. In any case my old M3LR had the Homelink in the bumper, so I didn't want/ didn't have enough time to get to it

I requested the part in the app > Service, so we'll see if the tech can add the part to my order and do the install. Scheduled for next Thurs, so I'll let the thread know if they can do it. As an aside, I tried to get MyQ to work in the meantime. Very strange, adding it on the car brings up a...

Just played around with the turn signal buttons in the garage, and here's what it feels like to me on my wheel. General activation zones for left and right signal are the ovals. It looks and feels like the fascia rocks on a pivot to actuate switches underneath. It seems sometimes though the...

I wanted to do the same, but since I had an older 2018 M3, I'd have to remove the bumper. I showed the SC that Homelink showed as unavailable for the 2024 M3P, and they didn't know why. They recommend I request it through Service on the app to see if the service tech can add it

I picked up today at the Chicago South Loop SC. Great experience, they're very well organized. I did Everyday Chris's full checklist (well done!) and found one small, light scratch on the back L pillar that they buffed out quickly. Everything else, panel gaps, etc were spot on. Drove home at...

It's on 717 S Desplaines St, but that's right outside the loop, so I'd much rather go to Westmont. No worries though. Congrats to you too!

Mine's at the new(?) service center on Des Plaines tomorrow (Thurs). We'll probably cross paths on the expressway

My VIN came on 5/26

@SmooveSailing @Parelem and other day zero Chicago folks, it's on. Just got the text to schedule delivery

Thanks Smoove for the scoop! Yep probably a holdup in logistics. No worries it'll get here when it does. Of course I'll be there at 8:01am that day 😁

Hi, any indication if Schaumburg got the truck in? Today was the day, no? I try to let this happen as it happens, but I hate to admit I've been checking more today haha

I was eying Lasfit mats, as they seem very similar to the 3DSpider mats that I used on my 2018 M3 for over 5 years. I really like the deep well design for slushy Chicago weather. How's the backing? The Spiders had almost velcro on the back and they didn't move at all

Thanks for doing that Smoove! With SC prep crossing my fingers to pick up by next weekend. On Homelink, any confirmation that '24 cars can take the module? Last I checked, Tesla Parts showed it compatible until '23. I called CS and (while they didn't sound 100% sure what I was talking about)...

Let us know what they say! I figure our shipment gets here when it does, so no use worrying. But if you get a sneak peek please share

I'm in the same boat (train). Upthread about a week (it moves fast!) I got the same delivery window w/ my VIN, but no delivery date yet. Starts tomorrow, so hopefully it doesn't slip. It'll be cool seeing M3Ps around town!

Same question for me, but my current car is a 2018 RWLR with 18 in wheels (square). I have an extra set of wheels for summers, do we know if they fit and is the bolt pattern the same? I recall earlier that there may be an issue fitting around the larger brakes on the 2024 M3P. It sure would be...

Chicagoland VIN holders, did your EDD move up? Mine went up 10 days to June 1 - 10. I'm guessing our train has come in

4 out of 6. I got my VIN yesterday, day 0 UR/B Chicagoland! They're prob prepping our train car

They tricked me with the same message same time haha. Must have had some LR inventory free up in Chicagoland. No VINS for our area yet, huh? I imagine we're a large market (and pretty far from the factory) so we get a transload all to ourselves

Haha I had to check, but yeah I joined TMC in 2018 too (!) when I bought my current M3LR that I'll be trading in or selling. What a wild ride! I recall back then EDDs shifted by like 6 months, so the current movement a few days here and there is actually a pleasant surprise for me. Admittedly...

I'm an optimist, and I'd like to believe they've manually taken over the automated messaging from production planning because they're preparing your VIN. At least that's what I'd want to believe :D

Mine (Day 0, UR/B, Chicago) just got adjusted from 5/29-6/26 to 5/30-6/13 (delayed a day but shortened). Assuming that EDDs are tied to a statistical production planning system and not say, lotto ping pong balls, I'd venture to guess that they're planning on a production run of black interiors...

I went in today for a demo drive, but as I expected it was a mixup. No worries! They prob felt bad so they pulled an M3P up and let me sit in it and take a close look. As reported the seats are extremely comfortable. They fit me like a glove, and they're angled out so I imagine they'd easily...

My guess is that it has to do with the Monroney window sticker. Included on the sticker is a fuel economy and emissions figure that's provided by the EPA. Once on the sticker and in front of consumers, these figures cannot change without penalty. So Tesla would be liable without final EPA...

I just used the number off Google maps. It was the local number of the showroom

Odd I just called a local showroom asking if they had an M3P to show, and the answer was no but they scheduled a demo drive on an M3P coming in next week. I really hope it's a '24 haha

Right but the media event was multiple days and seated maybe 50 a time? And there are maybe only 5 video reviews? I also think it's strange

Haha mine just updated from June to Jun 4 - Jun 30. Three days narrower window, thanks!

No prob, I'd seen that list and wondered if it has been expanded yet. Since I'm not on X I couldn't search it to see if they had added to it

Do we know when the M3P will be at showrooms east of the Rockies? I'd really like to get a look at what I ordered haha

Thanks! Assuming PLo is correct, I could accept and decline the week before. I might do that

Does anyone know if VIN assignment is based on acceptance/decline of a trade in offer? I'm trading in a 2018 M3LR, and the Tesla offer seems really low. I'm planning on waiting till a VIN gets assigned to get offers from CarMax/Vana (which are only valid for 7 days). Would that hold up getting a...

My 2018 M3LR was blue, and I loved it. But since it's the trade-in and I didn't want to have a blue car for another 5 years, red was the best choice for me. I think you'll really like it

I've never owned a vehicle with staggered wheels before. I was hoping this was possible to get a second set in square for winter tires. That would allow rotation, is likely much cheaper, and I don't plan on gunning it on winters :). Can anyone confirm square wheels possible on a car that's stock...

I ordered an M3P (red exterior, black interior) yesterday within an hour of drop (crossing my fingers I get one of the earlier deliveries). Two things I hope for, first that 19in wheels are offered between now and delivery, and that Tesla sneakily brings back the FSD transfer. I called Tesla...

That's why I'll be going for the chrome delete-delete. JK I deleted my 2018 and never looked back. Love that the M3L is coming just after its 5 year anniversary, it's run really well but I'm itching for an upgrade

I took a video of the maiden trip that I may or may not post. The audio is terrible, as it's from a GoPro type camera on a suction mount attached to the sunroof (how does Teslabjorn do it?). Very rumbly. If Youtube isn't complete inundated with FSD vids by this evening, I'll consider editing it...

@momo3605 Good to hear you had success with the intersections. I'm sure I'll get some successes on subsequent trips. And I thought the same about the first wave favoring suburb driving. It's in my head canon that the Safety Score isn't there to rate a driver. One could argue that if FSD is...

@EVNow , I think you can do this in one of two ways. Either use AP without Navigate on Autopilot and I think it acts as AP. Or go into Autopilot settings and unclick FSD to use NOA without FSD

Just took my maiden FSD voyage with a lunchtime trip to Home Depot in the Chicago suburbs. On the outbound trip, did a rolling start on the expressway (e.g. started with AP and let it hand off to FSD at the exit) and then on the inbound trip started in the Home Depot parking lot. Initial...

@NORMGAS, I recently updated my phone to the Galaxy Flip S 5G and have seen a similar issue. First I would use akenham's suggestion to disable optimization for the Tesla app. I'm not sure if it also helps, but I've disable optimization for the Bluetooth app as well. Lastly every time I walk up...

Hi Murf, here's a test that may help you out. In the Toybox (I believe, my car is in service and I can't find the exact location) is a drawing / paint app. Next time you get the screen jitters, try turning that app on. It can help diagnose if you're getting phantom screen presses. If that's the...

Thank you! I thought the V10 update broke search completely, as a search would bring up only podcasts and caraoke and the occasional artist which didn't seem to work. I logged out of Spotify and at least I can search Slacker again.

That's my service center as well! Great place, but the most backed up with service in the area. I saw Discount Tire stores them too, for $70 if I recall. I have some corner space in a garage so I opted out. If you buy tires from them, they'll take care of the swaps, rotation, and balances for...

Chicagoland owner here. Last winter was interesting, in that we didn't get snow until about January, then that whole polar vortex thing... The stock 18s with MXM4s on a RWD were not very confident in snow and ice. On July 4 I got summers and rims, and on Labor Day Blizzak WS90s for the Aero...

Having just changed tires from the MXM4s to the Pilotsport 4S (LR RWD, 18"), I concur with almost all these points. While noticeable, consumption increase estimate of less than 30Wh/mi seems about right. The handling and wet/dry traction have been top notch. For example, in the rain the MXM4s...

I've seen the same lane change issue on 2019.5.15. On open expressway, it will hesitate and sometimes cancel a lane change. This will happen both with traffic and with no cars around. This wasn't ever an issue on previous versions, so I assume it's been somewhat recalibrated.

I've just installed version 9 and decided to take a 200 mi. night trip because I heard that some folks needed to recalibrate their AP (spoiler: the Model 3 does not need to calibrate after ver 9). I've compiled some initial thoughts and some changes from 2018.32 that I hadn't seen reported...

I may also get the aero wheels for long distance trips and caps for every day. The duct tape method seems hit or miss. Any thoughts on removing the center cap with a suction cup? I am unsure of the dimensions (they're not listed on the Tesla site), but perhaps a 3 inch roof suction cup to help...
