The Teslarati website just an article on Audio Weaver and noise control. Below is an extract: "DSP Concepts, the company that develops the sound platform used by Tesla called Audio Weaver, recently announced a new collaboration with premier audio company Bose. The collaboration gives Bose the...

As part of your decision process ask the BMW dealer whether or not they have someone certified to work on the X5 45e. I had a BMW i3 for a while and some warranty services took almost a month because they either didn't have the parts, didn't have the tools or didn't have a technician. In one...

I just had an almost identical dent in my hatch lift gate. The local high end body shop said that due to the way the bottom of the lift gate is connected to the aluminum backing that's up a few inches it can't be pulled out and made to look and fit right. The local body shop also said that they...

Add washer fluid and see if the noise goes away. I only get that sound when the tank is less than 1/2 full.

My wife had an almost new Volvo that slid off the road on black ice. Our insurance estimated $15,000 US to repair. We called the Volvo dealer and asked them where they recommended we get it repaired. We had it towed to the body shop and the estimator confirmed that there was structural damage...

I was hoping your Smoke-em Mode was a black smoke generator that we could trigger when we blow past a diesel pickup truck that just smoked us at a stop light.

I had a larger bolt in my tire in about the same place. Discount Tire patched it when I agreed to write on the ticket that there is no warranty on the patch. That was about 6,000 miles and and no troubles.

With 44.10.1 I can hide various sources. I kept the radio and my favorite FM stations show up and when selected they look like they are working but there is no sound. Other sources look and sound as normal. I did a soft reboot and a power off but still no sound. Any further suggestions?

Has anyone noticed any impact on the Auto Wiper function? Currently, without any coating, the Auto Wipers are the worst I've had on the last 4 or 5 cars. The speed varies for no reason and with little rain will switch to a very fast speed. This sounds like a great product - I don't think it...

I picked up my MY July 15th and have 410 miles on it. No problems with fit or finish or operationally. The autosteer can be a bit sketchy. I dropped it off for PPF and some tinting today. The shop has done about 30 M3 and three MY before me. He says my fit and finish is better than he's seen on...

This was the rack with what looked like the lowest wind resistance that was available.

When you get your tires have them check the alignment. I chewed through tires until I finally got the car aligned.

My 5th scheduled delivery date is 7/15/20. All delays were from Tesla's side relating to delivery delays and a cracked windshield that they noticed just before I started my drive to pick the car up. I've only paid the $100 so far. I'll be curious to see how easily I can get the $2,000 adjustment.

When I first decided to buy a MY and started reading these forums I decided to print the manual and keep it in the car for a situation just like this.

I used a non-Tesla certified electrician that I've used on other jobs. It took him 70 minutes from start to finish and about $30 worth of materials. He did not commission the charger. It took me 20 minutes to read the commissioning instructions and then do it. Everything works well...
