I've been in the FSD Beta program since summer of last year, and while I've seen updates with significant improvements, so far my limited experience with 11.4.2 has shown more improvements than I've seen in any prior release.

(As always, YMMV).

We've all developed a feel for what FSD Beta can and ...

Both of my Tesla Model 3 key cards mysteriously stopped working last weekend. I couldn't find a post here that precisely described how to proceed, so I thought I'd share what I learned.

I'm certain that both cards worked at some point, but I typically use my phone, so I hadn't used either card for...

Using a 3D printer, I was able to add three 12v cigarette lighters, and two 5v USB phone chargers to the existing center console.

The car would shut itself off after 30 minutes, so I needed unswitched power

Step 1: Add new 12v power source
I researched other existing power taps, but it wasn't eno...

I finally finished my Alcantara headliner reupholstering! Last pieces, the airbag cover and rear cargo cover. I think it came out awesome! What's your thoughts!?!

I had a recent issue where one or more of the resets shared by Tesla Support fixed the problem.
I assume these are in a handbook or online but sharing here in case someone searches and it helps them.

Things have changed a bit since my first trip on this route when I picked up my Model 3 SR + in Austin in 2021. Many more new Superchargers and much more knowledge helps on this 650 mile round trip.

The biggest South Texas addition is the Supercharger in Alice TX which breaks up the long stretch f...

My situation is I'm getting divorced, and I either need to refinance my current car or get a new one. Today I test drove a 2024 BMW iX and I left blown away.

Yes, it's a little smaller (5 seats vs. 6, but considerably more useable cargo area). It lacks air suspension (they stopped that after 2023...

I got FSDb for the first time yesterday. After a drive and watching it like a hawk, I learned a few things that caused me to search for more information on FSDb, but I did not find any comprehensive lists or videos in one place, so I will start one. This post includes the little I know and questio...

Testing FSD beta 11.4.2 today on a short torture course that caused problems for earlier versions. This drive was done in Chill mode. At 5:49, it barely made the transition into a left turn lane to enter an onramp to I-5, which earlier versions could not do. It had to make a hard braking maneuver...

This is what you'd get if Sandy Munro were a teacher, not an automotive engineer specializing in machine tools and manufacturing. I've watched this series of videos on the octovalve. It was impressive but mind numbing.

Here is a funny FSD story.

I was driving on FSD using my Tesla Model X and I noticed a police officer following me. I actually just let FSD go the exact speed limit so I did not worry about it. I suddenly noticed that he was turning when I turned and finally he pulls me over. I took over manually f...

Sorry this is quite long.
TLDR: Here is info about a nice and neat little DIY installation of the latest Amazon Echo Auto device into a current (second generation) Model 3/Y console, using the Jowua USB LED Hub and optional matching tray setup.

Happy to entertain discussion about the Echo Auto itse...

I drove from California to Maine earlier this month in a MYLR, just me and the dog. I don’t know exactly how many miles, how many hours, how many Kwh, how many times I stopped to charge, how much time I spent charging, how much it all cost, or how much carbon I saved. I just know that I got here saf...

I tested all these tires back to back on either a Tesla Model 3 or Y. I have both a Model 3 and a Model Y (wife’s).

My goal was to have a great handling tire (makes me happy) that can handle the occasional snow, is quiet, and has good range.

For context, I have the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires on...

Hi team,

After going through a heap of threads I have decided to post my journey. Hopefully with the help of multiple minds and experience/expertise I will succeed in the end!

I acquired this 2021 Tesla Model 3 Standard range plus (single motor) here in New Zealand after a cyclone. The car was bas...

Next gen Ford EVs will include NACS port for access to Tesla's Supercharger network. They will also have a NACS to CCS adapter for existing Ford EVs and will be made compatible with Tesla Superchargers via software update. We discuss this as well as other topics.

I wanted to share with the community a fix that worked for me to solve blower fan clicking noises.

First, the symptom: The HVAC cabin blower fan emits clicking noises that seem to be coming from the dashboard. The frequency of the clicks gets higher as you increase the speed of the fan. Clicks can ...

Honestly never thought any other automaker would take up NACS so this is very surprising.

Here is some data to compare the just released German BYD strucural pack MY RWD with the Chinese MY RWD with CATL battery pack:

[Wiki] Model 3 / Model Y - Batteriewiki / Akkuwiki

Model Y RWD - Battery Comparison - CATL vs. BYD (vs. LG) MY RWD with CATL 6L @ 190Wh/km MY RWD with BYD 7C @ 190Wh/km MY LR AWD with LG 5L @ 211Wh/km Disclaimer: There is currently no data for the BYD charge curve below 20%. These charts assume 170kW charge power from 0% to 20%.

So, my kid's Scout Troop had a weekend camping trip planned at a National Park this past weekend, and this was the first long trip I've taken. From my door to the campsite was about 175 miles, and I was kind of nervous about taking a trip to somewhere that didn't have charging infrastructure availab...
