I'm not sure which wires @mr_x100d. But, they did fix the problem completely. They also transferred the clamps to the new MCU after a swap last month due to a daughterboard failure. Here is a screenshot of the repair for the audio system.

I trust the TMC forum members as a reliable starting point. Our hope is to work with a current M3 owner who is considering a trade-in. But, you're right, Tesla inventory cars make sense and would be a safe bet.

Looking for one clean, 1-owner Model 3 Dual Motor (not performance) for our niece. Flexible on color. Must be AWD. Will travel to your specified location for pickup. If you are still waiting to take delivery of a new car, we are willing to wait until your new car is ready for delivery. Cash...

Yes, I am experienced in the use of plastics on automobiles. Either way, though, I think it's cool that you made your own part using a 3D plastic printer. We've seen several other Tesla owners make some plastic gadgets as well.

Hmmm. My Tesla has NO parts made using a 3D plastic printer. The Bandit, from what I can tell, is made from a stronger plastic material and cut using a special CNC router.

Just looked at the product link you provided in your post. Are you making SnapPlate out of plastic using a 3D printer?

Just don't stick that 3M tape that comes with the black plastic stock bracket on your front bumper if you have PPF or ceramic coating. Those don't play well together at all. :(

Slipstream Bracket (protected all-metal front license plate mount) for Model 3 and Model X are shipping now. A new version for Model Y is coming in a few weeks. Be sure to use discount code TMC15 to get your discount. IMPORTANT: The Model 3 version will NOT fit the Model Y. The bumper and...

Slipstream Bracket is the only one that's NOT plastic. It was designed in Colorado and holds up perfectly in sub-zero temperatures - doesn't become brittle at all. It's made out of rust-proof material (aluminum and stainless steel) that is not affected by road salts, gravel and mag chloride...

Very helpful information. Thank you!

Why do you think this is the case? Toured Superior last Sunday and everything appears to be up and running. We're supposed to take delivery at the Superior location. No VIN yet.

I respect your opinion concerning various "solutions" for displaying a front license plate on a Tesla. However, for others who read this post, the claims you make are not accurate. The bracket from ThatGrin does NOT mount directly to the plastic veins as you claim. The unit has two arms that...

Have you tried running in the "Low" suspension setting? Seemed to greatly reduce shudder and, after 16K miles, no noticeable abnormal tire wear.

Tesla must be the preferred EV of the islands. LOTS of shipments going to Hawaii in the past several weeks! With FREE Priority shipping from Colorado, your Slipstream Bracket should be delivered in 3 days. BTW, awesome looking P3D+!

I don't have the specific links handy, but I've read about it in multiple threads. It makes sense to me because the efficiency of the Tesla drivetrain is very dependent upon keeping those batteries and motors cool. I'm not aware of any short-term damage anyone has experienced (other than the...
