In the city of Boston there are hundreds of public L2 chargers, however there are probably 5 in the entire city which are greater than 6 kW. I see the same trend for pretty much all of New England and New York and Ontario. There are Superchargers and other L3 chargers like Electrify America and...

I have heard that leaving a Tesla battery at low state of charge for long periods of time will permanently damage the battery (similar to high state of charge), but I have also heard the opposite, that there's no harm to the battery itself at low state of charge, just a convenience issue due to...

I know, I know, not another tire thread. But I've been searching for a while and I can't seem to answer all of my questions.... A little background: I drive a Model Y LR, 19" wheels in Boston. Yeah it snows here but not as much as most people think it does. each year I might end up driving in...

I have been on a 2023 FSD branch since the holiday update. Now that FSD 12 is on the horizon, I have a question about software versions and branches. I noticed that some Tesla employees recently got a 2023.x release with FSD 12, and according to TeslaFi most of the 2024 software version don’t...

I work from home and usually do one large drive each weekend. I live in a condo with a shared charger so its inconvenient to charge after every drive because I have to move my car once the charge is complete, therefore I have not been charging every day like Tesla recommends. My current...

I’ve noticed that sometimes while driving with FSD I get a random “ping” sound and My steering wheel vibrates (haptic feedback). This is not a lane departure warning nor is it a ”hands on wheel” nag, it just randomly makes a noise and vibrates the wheel but then keeps on driving like usual. I...

I have a 2023 Model Y with 15k miles on it (10 months old). Last week when charging at a supercharger on a road trip I got a “Charging stopped“ message and could barely get home. I noticed that AC charging still worked so I was able to get into a service center in a few days. Even before my...

I drive a model Y which is just under a year old. I was out on a ski trip today, 150 miles from home with 15% battery remaining and I stopped at a supercharger like I do every few weeks. Never had an issue with superchargers until now. Everything was fine for the first 5% charge, then my car...

First time Tesla owner here, and my car is about 10 months old. Is it normal for my Long Range Model Y to be showing no more than 317 miles (sometimes as low as 315) when charged to 100%? Occasionally I charge to 100% during a long road trip when I know it won't sit at 100% for long and may not...

I've read so many tricks about how to force a software update (aside from just going to the software page the regular way which only seems to work 1x per day) and I seriously question whether there's any validity in any of them. For example: Hold down both steering wheel buttons to force a...

Somebody hit my model Y and damaged my rear bumper paint while parking. They said their insurance will cover it. No structural damage that I can see. From what I read on this forum the repair should be simple as Tesla can just pop in a pre-painted bumper and call it a day for around $1,000...

I use an iPhone 14 Pro. I have noticed that the charge mat in my model Y isn't as useful as I thought it would be. It's a great place to set my phone because I never forget it when its in plain sight and I don't care much about the charging speed but I almost don't want to put my phone there...

I tried FSD-beta 11.3.6 today (via subscription) and while the self-driving capability is very impressive, what really struck me is how much better the new visualization is compared to the stock visualization. For example I can now always see cars parked on the sides of the road, always see cars...

My car has EAP and I want to try FSD beta. If I purchase a FSD subscription in the future I assume I can get into the beta program (once the 2023 FSD betas are going out at least). I am wondering what happens if I install FSD-beta with an FSD subscription and then decide not to renew my FSD...

It seems that 2023.6.15 is finally going out to Tesla employees! Does anybody have any idea how long it typically takes for beta relases to go from internal testing to a public roll out? I paid for FSD subscription this month then cancelled immediately once I found out I had to wait for a...

I have a new model Y and I’m waiting for the new update which will give me park assist despite having no USS. Do I need to be in my car to know whether there is a new software update or should I be able to check for updates in the Tesla mobile app. Just wondering if it’s worth walking out to my...

I was wondering how all of you adjusted your seat in your model Y for the ideal driving position. I like mine on the high side because it gives me the best view of the road and in front of the car (especially when parking since there is no front camera or USS parking features) but I noticed that...

My building has a shared leve2 charger and I'm not allowed to charge from 7 am to 9 am so it's hard to charge overnight without being inconvenienced in the morning. I want to leave for a road trip at 10 am. Rather than leaving it charging overnight and waking up at 7 am and moving my car I'd...

I live in a condo in Boston that has a large parking garage with a dedicated space for each resident. While awaiting delivery of my model Y, I've been thinking a lot about how to optimize my charging situation. My building has 6 charging bays in the upstairs area of the garage that I will be...

I live in a condo building that does have mobile chargers, but they're on a different level of our garage from my reserved space and have restrictions (like no charging from 7-9 am) and they are not free, and are sometimes congested. I noticed today that there's an outlet in my garage...

Hey everyone, just wanted to create a thread specifically for red model Ys. Red is the least popular yet coolest looking color for a Tesla! I've heard rumors about red cars taking longer to produce and I created a spreadsheet to track red Y's which you can take a look at here in an attempt to...
