    Subwoofer upgrade for 2024 model 3.

    You said in your original post that the subwoofer "Rollof slope from around 42Hz and down" while also saying the midbass woofer "play down to 42Hz". If you are to believed that would mean both drivers are overlapping and time alignment is required to prevent comb filtering especially because...

    Subwoofer upgrade for 2024 model 3.

    Measuring audio isn't that hard now that you can buy a decent RTA microphone for a couple of hundred bucks but the problem I had with your "testing" was that you were testing the position of the factory subwoofer but used a different subwoofer and amplifier in your subsequent tests. Changing...

    Subwoofer upgrade for 2024 model 3.

    While I have some serious issues with your testing setup and methodology. I do agree that the subwoofer placement is terrible but where else was tesla supposed to put it? Anywhere else you would logically place it would eat into cargo space or reduce it's passenger carrying capacity like in...

    Any experience renting a Tesla

    I tried renting a model 3 from hertz and they required a credit card and will not take debit cards for the deposit on teslas. I had my wallet stolen and only had my debit card so I was forced to rent a polestar 2 instead.

    Wish List Item: Weather Radar

    The car will warn you of severe wind but I've felt like it's so inconsistent when it actually will. I've seen 20-30mph sustained 40mph gusts and it will warn me but 30mph sustained and 60mph+ gust with nothing. It doesn't give you any input to how will effect the car, it would be nice if you...

    Does wall charger ground need to be insulated?

    NEC 250.118 (1) and 250.119 are where your awnser are but this assumes you are in a location that follows NEC and does not have a local law or regulation that supersede that. Generally the rule of thumb with electrical work is if you don't know what you are doing and don't know how to look...

    Time to disable bluetooth as a key?

    A stolen iPhone is a little bit different from a stolen car. Phone theft gangs wrap the phone in aluminum foil to create a makeshift faraday cage and prevent the phone from receiving signals. Where tesla puts the LTE antenna would be pretty difficult to wrap in foil.

    Time to disable bluetooth as a key?

    Honestly what kind of theif would specifically target teslas? Sure you might be able to preform a relay attack and drive away but then what? You are in a car that reports it's GPS location back to the mothership.

    tornado rips by tesla

    Last wesnday I was on a cross country trip and originally was planning on spending the night in Omaha but ended spending it outside of St. louis because Omaha was under a tornado watch and flood warning. After we got checked into our hotel we started to get severe thunderstorm warning and...

    Who is waiting on the 2024 changes to order a Plaid?

    I'm a hobbyist audio engineer and sound system designer and I think a second subwoofer isn't the best idea. If they added a second sub with its own cabinet then they'd have to play the positioning and delay game to minimize comb filtering. The current cabinet does not have enough volume to...

    Where to report that a destination charger has been removed?

    Does anyone know what I need to do to report a destination charger has been removed by the property? I'm currently doing a cross country trip and unexpectedly needed a hotel to hunker down for the night as my original destination is currently under a tornado warning and the entire route to get...

    Buying used Tesla out of state. How do I supercharge on the way home?

    It might be easy, it might be a pain depending on how the dealership got the car. Since supercharging charges the credit card of whoever's account has ownership of the car you may not be able to charge it until you get that squared away. If the dealership has a Tesla account and transfered...

    FSD needs to learn how to read signs

    Actually that would make sense if they are migrating from hardcoded to Ai.

    FSD needs to learn how to read signs

    I've been on a cross country trip this month and I can't quite remember which state it was maybe Montana but there would be a speed sign for 75MPH, then there would be a speed sign for 45MPH for trucks under some GVWR, the there would be a speed sign for 35MPH for trucks over some GVWR. What...

    Are we underestimating what features Tesla could leverage with the cameras + AI

    I'll be honest I haven't looked into how tesla handles their neural network but I do have a little bit of neural network experience. There's two side of the computational requirements, training vs replay. On the training side you need as much compute as you can get your hands so you can either...

    2024 Model 3 (Highland)- Spoiler improves or reduces range?

    3D printing are devices like spoilers wouldn't be the best of ideas without heavy post processing to remove the layer lines. Printing it vertically on a delta style may let you get away without but I'm unsure how that would effect th

    Local Electric Company wants EV owners to pay for upgrading neighborhood infrastructure.

    Since it's a public utilities company I believe there's grounds for a lawsuit here. The supreme court has ruled that there must be actually basis behind fees in 'sheetz v. county of el dorado, california'. While that case doesn't 100% line up with OP is dealing with I'm sure a competent lawyer...

    Local Electric Company wants EV owners to pay for upgrading neighborhood infrastructure.

    That would be because household air conditioners became a thing in the early 1930s. For reference: when ACs were first being installed into houses, only 68% of homes had electricity and in the same decade there was more federal dollars going into the electrical grid then any other point in US...

    Supercharger - Seattle, WA - NW. 45th St. (Under Construction Oct 2023, 12 V3 stalls)

    The EVgo station in the same parking lot is currently down because some gronks cut the cables. I'm actually surprised they haven't touched the super charger cables yet...

    Tesla: Highlights from our upcoming Spring Release below

    I completely agree, we are talking about an Intel atom that's nearing almost a decade in age. The IGPU on that CPU was a joke from day one as it's from an era when intel wasn't really investing into their GPU side. It's biggest issue was the IGPU didn't have any cache so everything had to be...

    Did you just buy a Tesla from Hertz Car Rental?

    Tesla won't let you transfer ownership before the sale since they specifically require proof of ownership.

    Did you just buy a Tesla from Hertz Car Rental?

    Doss it pop up every drive asking you to agree to terms and conditions? I kinda wonder if some cars were never put into the rental mode as some people have said their car didn't lock them out of changing the acceleration modes too.

    Did you just buy a Tesla from Hertz Car Rental?

    Yes reseting is necessary to get it out of the rental mode. Phone key and AP/FSD will keep reseting until you do it.

    Did you just buy a Tesla from Hertz Car Rental?

    85k miles for 21k all said and done (including EV credit). Still haven't gotten a chance to check the battery health.

    Did you just buy a Tesla from Hertz Car Rental?

    Yesterday I bought a M3LR from a dealership that turned out to be one of the hertz cars. The dealership had six M3LR between their two locations and three had sold within the time span we were there not including mine. I poked my head around all six and they were in varying conditions from I...
