    Local suspension work?

    You could see if Cyril Wheeler is willing to do something for you. https://www.wheelerauto.ca/ He comes down to Ottawa periodically for a few days - next visit likely early Dec.

    2020 M3 Warranty almost over-independent check?

    It’s worth the drive to Innerkip, I’ve done it twice from Ottawa (it does help that I have family in the general area down there though). Cyril is also coming down to Ottawa periodically, but he books up fast!

    Still Can't Upgrade to 20" Wheels

    Just buy it with the rims you ordered and use them for the winter and get 20’s for the summer.

    Is there AM radio on the 2021 M3 LR AWD?

    No Model 3 has AM Radio. Some of the AM radio stations are available as sub channels on some HD FM channels though, or you might be able to find them via streaming.

    Ottawa body shop recommendation

    Turpin Collision and Donnelly Collision are the two Tesla certified locations. I’ve had work done by both. I’d probably put Turpin as my first choice.

    -25, M3 not charging at all on my 110?

    120V doesn’t cut it at -20s or lower. Even my 240V L2 is charging at significantly reduced speeds.

    This must be the first 4680 car?

    I’m sure it’s incorrect, whether intentional or not, who knows.

    Why is Model 3 SR+ so popular?

    It qualifies for the federal rebate and no other models do in Canada. Tesla has limited component supply and is prioritizing the more profitable models. And Hertz ordered 100,000 of them!

    Comparing Tesla Model 3 SR ( 151km range ) to Mazda MX30

    You really don't want the 151 km Model 3 SR, it's only intended as a compliance car. Just spend the little bit extra and get the 423km range SR+. The Model 3 will blow the pants off of either the Leaf or the i3. You can find some specs for it here: 2021 Tesla Model 3 Standard Range Plus RWD -...

    Tesla Ottawa - For real this time

    No superchargers at either Tesla service location in Ottawa (and neither of them is particularly close to Manotick anyhow). There are superchargers at Bell's Corners, Casselman, the Rideau Centre.

    How much does it cost to patch a tire puncture?

    Solo in HOV lane w blue plates on Tesla - anyone in Ontario ever been pulled over for this?

    Not permitted. You need green plates to solo in an EV in a HOV lane. You can and very well might get a ticket for not having the requisite number of people with a blue plate.
