Did you ever resolve this? Several years later, I have the same issue. I have to tap it off with a hammer. What happened with yours?

I tried this and it didn’t work. I held down and got Please enter access code. I typed dynotest (also tried Dynotest) and then nothing. I’m on v10.2 (2021.24.4).

I go to Flag often but with a LR model. In the summer, the car computer is dead on driving around 78-79 mph on I-17. In the winter, it’ll adjust down around 5% or a little more soon after you leave. My advice is to see how the projection holds up from Phoenix to Cordes Junction. If you’re...

Or drive up a hill

I know what you mean, but I use the nav to tell me if I can get there or not on longer trips. The miles projection is based on rated miles and not accurate if you drive faster than the rated wh/mi anyway. It would be great if the car had an option to show you both miles and % at the same...

I used it on my X a few times in dusty parking lots and it’s annoyingly loud as you describe. I wouldn’t use it except for special situations.

I don’t think you need to scan. Just look at your energy chart in the car and multiply the wh/mi on the left by the range estimate right, then divide by the % battery you have at the time. Mine always comes in around the 78,200 to 78,900 range which would be the usable battery for the 82 kWh...

I use ABRP to get an idea before going but use the car during the trip. The car is very accurate. If you get different projections split the difference. ABRP takes weather into account. I just took a road trip and ABRP was very conservative until I adjusted the reference consumption to 250...

I agree with the advice to change to the % display in the car. I just did a one time calc of what minimum % I was comfortable with (eg, across town and back + 5%). And then never thought about the range projection again. For daily driving, it doesn’t matter (except maybe that minimum) and for...

What do you use in ABRP for your reference consumption. I just did a road trip from Phoenix to Moab, UT to Denver. Then went Denver to Durango to Phoenix coming back. At first, ABRP was really conservative and way off using the reference consumption it determines itself from the car, but if I...

Discount Tire is called America’s Tire in some markets.

Autopilot is standard. The upgrade is Full Self Driving. If you have a 3 or Y purchased after they made that standard (2019 some time), this effects your car.

I got my AWD Model Y with the Inductions in March. Before ordering I weighed the range vs dark wheel look over and over. Now 3 months in I’m so glad I went with Inductions. I came from a Model X with standard Slipstreams and other than on lumpy interstates where the air suspension makes a...

Tesla can tell you the final number for your location. In Arizona, the license and registration is only $90 for 5 years on EVs and the only tax is the city sales tax that is the same you pay at any store (8% for me). That differs from some of the other posts in other locations so you can see...

I used Cactus Tint on Raintree in Scottsdale for two cars for 3M tint and Suntek PPF only on front to mirrors. They’re straight forward and can advise you and do nice work. I also recently did tint and PPF on a newer Y at Bulldog Detail in Scottsdale because I was also doing brake caliper...
