I think it's sort of funny that I spent ten minutes trying to find the parking sensor functionality on the screen of my new 2023 Model 3, only to discover the hardware was removed. Really gives you that 1992 Nissan feel with no floor mats too. I'm sure this stuff was listed somewhere on the...

Selling a rear diffuser from my 2018 Model 3. Local pickup preferred but will ship for actual shipping cost. $80 plus shipping or free pick up

Hopefully it fixes the keep climate and remote climate failure I've had all winter. That's been super.

Brought it in to service, they said it's a software problem and to just wait for the next 1 or 2 updates. Not a great outcome.

I checked the climate controls and indeed, Keep Climate is not available due to a system fault. Service has been scheduled. What I've read is it's possibly a faulty temp/humidity sensor in the cabin. The app correctly shows the temperature though, so we'll see.

Updated the app, restarted the phone and the car with no luck.

I have 2019.40.50.7 (ad132c7b057e) and am no longer able to activate the climate control from the app. The first time I try it turns on and shows the red vents, but only for about 10 seconds before it shuts off. Subsequent attempts to turn it on from the app give me an error: Failed to Turn on...

It's just so, so bad. I have a Model 3 and had a Model S, and I'm increasingly convinced that FVH was a one trick pony at Tesla. The whole event was painful to watch, and I kept waiting for them to bring out the real one. Well, to be fair I don't know if the whole thing was painful, because I...

It drives like a completely different car compared to the MXM4 stock tires. No more under steer, great traction in the rain and a lot more confidence in general. I can't really tell if the road noise has changed. I had the same tires on my AWD 4 series and Model S, they're especially good in...

I bought Continental DWS06 245/45 earlier this month. It actually doesn't look that great to have the rubber sticking out past the rim. Going with a 40 series might stretch them a little, but 255 would look silly. If I had it to do over I would get the factory size 235/45. I can't tell what the...

That is clearly broken, I hope they fix it for you.

The valet service was the best! They came all the way out to my work, dropped off a loaded Model S, fixed my car and brought it back clean. No way they could support that with hundreds of thousands of cars on the road.

The number one factor for me would be warranty for a 2013. I had a 40 and it probably had $30k in warranty work in the 3 years I owned it. Like others have said, the battery will probably be in better condition on a 40 and with fewer miles. The upgrade to 60 at the current price is a no-brainer...

Yes, if only guns were added to this situation. What a great idea

I had the "Full Self Driving" trial the last few weeks and I don't trust it over 25mph or stop and go traffic. On a straight 2 lane undivided highway I had it engaged going ~55mph when we came up to a tractor that was half on the road and half on the shoulder. It didn't see the tractor and I...
