    I fixed an appointment with Tesla and it's available only on June to my location. few days later they posted an estimate of $894 It says "Repaired covered under warranty will be waived".

    GPS (Waze) Issues on iPhones when kept in the phone charging area, anyone have this?

    I was using this browser based Waze on this mornings commute, its cool how they did the site and great work of the developer. The problem for me is when I navigate out of it (like music and such) the browser gets closed and you have to reopen them and allow access when it prompts again, I can't...

    GPS (Waze) Issues on iPhones when kept in the phone charging area, anyone have this?

    I tried to place right on top the cover of the wireless charging just to see, still no GPS. so far only cup holder see to get reception. If I try to put above on the dashboard, then it would be complicated to touch and use it. I wish one day Tesla could find a way to have car play so we could...

    GPS (Waze) Issues on iPhones when kept in the phone charging area, anyone have this?

    I use Waze on every trip and was considering placing a dedicated device for Waze in the charging area and have some Siri automation so it turns off/on depends on when I enter/leave. My problem now is, which probably started early this year or so that when I place the iPhone with Waze map on the...

    Cost to fix two dents and scratches on Model 3, $9k ?

    Thats what's exactly i was thinking. They do all high end cars and the guys told me they do Model 3's all the time and they have few in the back on repair right now. So for the people who experienced in repairing this car they should know and give the first estimate to be fair and as best as...

    Cost to fix two dents and scratches on Model 3, $9k ?

    I wonder if the LT Qtr glass is actually the glass itself or just the assembly around it. If its glass they have another problem becaz i had tinted the car when i did ceramic, that will look odd if they replace glass.

    I am not near the car right now, but does the browser play media (of course while parked)? I haven't tested that yet, but this is a cool idea to have everything in one place and fullscreen.

    Anyone ordered before Jul 1st cut off for life time premium, still have it?

    When I got the order notification email I was out of country and I didn't want to end up in a situation where if I order and they would ask me to pickup before even I arrive USA, so I waited 2 weeks to place an order.

Wonder if I can call Tesla as ask to make...

    speaking of the advanced option, I got a update notification yesterday and I did it, it jumped form 16.2 to 20.1 Release notes says just Dog mode update and minor bug fixes. Why would a minor update jump version from 16 to 20, I don't understand.
