I disabled FSD and reset using the buttons on the steering wheel, and covered the camera. Been running over a week with no warnings or issues. I guess if I ever want to use FSD again I'll have to get the camera replaced, unless they find out it's some kind of software issue. For reference I...

Please let us know how it goes. Hopefully they don't have to replace your camera.

Same experience here. Cabin Camera warnings started as soon as I enabled FSD beta, and then the immediate nags starts shortly thereafter. Is everyone who is having this problem driving an older model 3 (2018-2019)? Seems like this might be a design/part flaw in the earlier builds. I'm...

I've had the gym sock smell problem a few times (lasts for a few minutes at the state of a trip) and have always been able to get rid of it by changing the filters and treating the evaporator as mentioned here. Now I have a new smell. Smells more like cloths that you left in the washer for a...

So I just had a mobile ranger fix a broken parking sensor on Tuesday (8-24). I asked him during the service whether I should proactively change my original battery on my 2018 M3. He said that I should get about a weeks warning so he would not recommend it. Fast forward to today and my car is...

Would like to know this. Will they move those of us with current LR RWD reservations automatically or should we switch now if we would prefer to get an AWD early versus waiting for the RWD?

Guess I should have also asked how the locking works with the new FOB. Does it auto lock when you walk away or do you need to lock with the FOB button?

Can anyone confirm how this works in terms of starting the vehicle? Does it have a time out like the other FOB or keycard (you have a short period to start after opening the door) or is it like the phone where as long as it's in your pocket the car will start. My biggest frustration with the...

Performed the maintenance today, sort of. I didn't have the replacement filters so I just took them out and blew them off, then put them in a bag with my ozone generator for 10 minutes to clear out any mold. They didn't look or smell bad out of car so I'm not sure the filters really matter...

I'd like to know this as well. Mine does this when the weather gets close or below freezing.

Thanks for posting this. This is the best solution I've seen yet! I do have one question. What jack stands are you using? I made my adapters out of hockey pucks and they are flush on the bottom but most jack stands are angled. Did you make special adapters to fit your jack stands or did...

Just to provide an update. The service tech was really helpful and let me look at other cars while I was at the SC. Although my car is worse than the others, I could still see some distortion in other cars as well. In the end I decided to wait on the glass replacement.

Dropping my car off today to get my back window replaced. I hate to lose the orange effect but I was able to test a non-orange glass recently with my remote+camera setup and it appears that the IR rejection was similar. Hopefully the new glass has less distortion in the back. Will report back...

Of course. That's exactly it. I ran a few tests and once I turned the BT off it has to completely wake up before it will allow me to unlock in the app. Thanks for saving me a lot of troubleshooting!

Does anyone know what command(s) the official app sends to unlock the car doors? In the app, even if my Model 3 is asleep, as soon as I hit the unlock button the car will unlock. Most of the other commands are grayed out until the car wakes up. If I use the API documented on the Tim Dorr...
