    Car not always unlocking

    My M3 stopped recognizing my Android as a key even though it unlocked fine. When I checked the app, the account wasn't logged in, so after logging in it seems to be working fine now.

    A/c Issue - Auto setting not generating high fan speed

    It sounds like you're expecting too much based on a short time line. They are giving you reasonable options, even if your travel schedule is set in stone. Use the app and schedule a service appointment farther out.

    lease return experiences? (curb rash)

    For some reason, the rear wheels especially right are hard to feel in space when driving. When I had my tint done, the shop owner said that almost every M3 that comes in has curb rash on the rear wheels. The other issue is that the tire is basically flush with the wheel and gives little to no...

    how to turn off "Your car cabin is now at the desired temperature" notification?

    These notifications are driving me crazy! I don't need a daily notification in the morning that the car reached the set temperature, just another thing to swipe off my screen. I trust it enough to do its job, just as much as I don't need a daily notification that the car finished charging...

    Anyone with the new filters care to examine them for the difference? I know it's a headache to get in there again.... but it's for science!

    I wish the Model 3 had the new Model S steering wheel

    The grip angle isn't that much different with yoke vs wheel at 9/3 o'clock, not enough to make that a design choice at the expense of ease of use. The stock wheel geometry is very comfortable.

    Sentry Mode battery usage 7% per day

    Nice setup! I was looking at something similar because it would be even more secure to record audio. That plus an interior view would complete any security needs, especially for police traffic stops. Recording audio such as honking, crashes, and voices seems very worthwhile. Maybe there is a...

    I wish the Model 3 had the new Model S steering wheel

    The yoke looks great, oozes futurism. But that's it. There is no functional advantage to driving and turning, it's all aesthetics. The marginal gain of making it easier to see instrument information isn't needed. Function divorced from form, 1 step forward 2 steps backward. Maybe Tesla...

    Acceptable XPEL XR Plus Install?

    The red flag is for the installer, not XPEL. Product companies have installer partners but the business and day to day decisions are made by the installer. XPEL can't be at fault for what the installer did to your vehicle. That said, they should reevaluate the qualifications of that...
