    Will Tesla Charge for HW3 to use a FSD subscription?

    Any Canadians see an 'upgrade' option? HW2.5 and this is all I see. I wonder how much it'll cost for us. Or if the upgrade is even allowed. I also have free unlimited Premium Connectivity since I bought in early 2019, wouldn't put it past Tesla to accidentally remove that with the hardware...

    2020.8.1

    I wonder if HW2.5 will ever get any updated visualizations. :eek: Hope it's not the end of the road for us, my car was delivered last June.

    HW2.5 even after April 12th build date

    Same boat here. I'm quite upset about being lied to, but there's really no recourse.

    Model 3 Door Handles: What Are They Made Of?

    Yes! Good show, RC2785, I'm very impressed!

    Model 3 Door Handles: What Are They Made Of?

    I remember seeing a photo of one that had been snapped in half (some vandal pushed in the handle and pulled towards the front of the car until it broke) - seemed to look like hollow plastic, but I can't seem to find it again. The handles do get hot enough in the sun, so I guess the coating is...

    MASTER THREAD: 2019.36.2.1 - new HOLD mode and other features

    How did you get this breakdown of your parts from a VIN?

    Rear View Camera - atleast 5 sec delay in coming on (always black initially)

    2019.32.2.2 - the problem is back and worse than ever. Sad.

    Online chat with Tesla support?

    Sorry for the necro, but the button is often hard to find, and doesn't show up for various reasons. You can brute-force a connection by visiting Salesforce - Unlimited Edition.

    Autopilot Called Out in NTSB Report on Tesla Crash into Fire Truck

    Well, that is concerning. Three seconds at 21 to 31mph was not enough time for autopilot to detect a stationary fire truck. It was a 2014 Model S with HW1. HW1 was aware of a decelerating car ahead 7 seconds before impact, which changed lanes after 4 seconds. It took another 2.51 seconds before...

    Rear View Camera - atleast 5 sec delay in coming on (always black initially)

    Mine has much improved with the later updates, I'm on the same version and it still happens rarely but no more than 5 seconds, and definitely not every time. If it's consistent with every ride then I would submit a ticket. I would call the issue 'fixed' for me.

    Vancouver BC VIN .

    Almost certainly, although there is a very small chance of getting 2.5 if you are ordering a config that is unlikely to get FSD (SR/+ especially with black paint). Teslas are not built to order, and it's possible one has been kicking around a lot somewhere.

    Pacific Northwest Owners (Seattle, Portland, or towns/cities in the region)

    We arrived with about 100km to spare (20 something %), charged up to 80% which was just under 300km IIRC. The screen said about 25mins when we left, but it may have sped up after that because we didn't get to finish shopping at Fred Meyers. Although we weren't in a rush, just browsing normally...

    Pacific Northwest Owners (Seattle, Portland, or towns/cities in the region)

    Update on the Vancouver to Seattle trip in an SR+ - charged up to 100% pre-trip but could have left at 90%. Easily made it to Lynnwood supercharger and had to rush out of the Fred Meyers when I got the alert that the car was already charged to 80%. This was my first time supercharging and now...

    What’s the average Wh/mi you are getting

    2714 miles, 575 kWh, 212 Wh/Mi. (4368 km & 132 Wh/km for my fellow Canucks) I stay in Chill mode mostly to avoid tire wear as an SR+ RWD with aeros. Looks like it doesn't actually make a big difference to anything if you're not constantly ripping it on the highway. The car isn't even 3 months...

    Pacific Northwest Owners (Seattle, Portland, or towns/cities in the region)

    Planning a trip from Vancouver to Seattle this weekend for PAX - a little nervous about the 220km trip (137 miles) in an SR+. Particularly as my 100% charge range displays ~367km (228 miles), a bit above the expected degradation for a sub-3-months-old car. Probably just going to park it on a...
