    Smelly stinky socks / mold in Model 3 AC

    I noticed the same thing. Never had the smell before but messed with the recirculation mode for the first time a few days ago and now I have the bad smell.

    M3 - Issues/Complains (what I wish I had known before buying thread)

    Thanks for the tip. Cowbell was even playing when I had to take a work call and I could not get it to stop LOL

    M3 - Issues/Complains (what I wish I had known before buying thread)

    I love my M3 and would not trade it for the world. However, like anything there are things I wish I had known before buying. Here is my short list. Hope it helps someone and feel free to add to this. No garage door opener or homelink by default. If you want to control your garage doors...

    MASTER THREAD: Removing marks from white seats

    My M3 is about 10 days old and somehow I got grease from my 20 year old garage door on the back of my pants. This is what it did to my new seat: I almost cried. Thankfully I had bought some cleaner and micro fiber towels on Amazon and was able to get it all cleaned up in about 5 minutes...

    Master Thread: 3 Delivery experiences

    Had an interesting experience at pickup. Showed up right at my scheduled time. Could not find any Tesla employees anywhere. There were a bunch of us waiting. Finally found someone who called someone to come get me. Guy asked me to sit down and send the payment (I was using plaid to pay...

    Vendor TeslaShields Update #9

    I have seen things like this play out in the past where 2 weeks becomes 4, then 4 weeks becomes 8, etc. and before you know it you have many unhappy customers. How confident are you that you will get your new mats and be able to ship them out in September or October? Thank you.

    Vendor Tesla Shields: Our Humble Beginnings

    @tshields I paid $169 for the M3 floor mats back in August. Was that the discounted price or did I forget to put in the discount code? ORDER #2718 Thank you! Also, can I add in the trunk and frunk mats at this point?

    Measuring the panel gaps upon delivery

    Not sure what the big deal is. Personally if I am going to buy a $50,000 brand new anything I want it to be perfect (or as close to reasonably perfect as possible). I assume the sales agents at Tesla would do the same thing when they are buying a very expensive X for themselves.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Yes. I have no clue what it means. Do they think there is new cars in existing inventory anywhere available?

    Horrible Customer Service Twice in a Week

    Sorry to hear that. This is a big fear of mine. In hindsight, is there anything you could have done differently or recommend to others traveling with kids? Would you suggest having a full size spare? As for the customer service, I suspect some of this is supply and demand and they have...

    How long to hear from a Sales Rep after ordering

    I am supposed to pickup my car on Sunday. Seems strange to pay nearly $44,000 and I have never actually spoken with a person at Tesla. I will call them later today just to make sure I have everything. I feel like I should be thanking them for the letting me by a Tesla :)

    You can only pick 3 aftermarket M3 buys. What are they?

    Floor mats? Tinting? Stain coating? What are you top three essential after market buys for the M3?

    How long to hear from a Sales Rep after ordering

    Trying to even schedule a test drive has been hard. These cars literally sell themselves so there is not much "sales" needed in the sales associate role.

    Changing my order before VIN assigned

    Does the link still work? I used it and it brought me to my normal page and the only thing I could change was adding FSD?
